Ammonium paramolybdate tetrahydrate → Azane;molybdenum;tetracosahydrate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A catalyst was prepared by impregnating 5 grams of the dried and calcined precursor from Example I (Pd/Al2O3) with 5 grams of an ammonium heptamolybdate solution to the point of incipient wetness. The resulting product was dried at room temperature for 10 hours and calcined at 400° C. for 2 hours. The product was then impregnated with 5 grams of the cesium carbonate solution used in Example I to the point of incipient wetness and dried at 120° C. for 8 hours. The ammonium heptamolybdate solution was prepared by dissolving 0.188 grams of (NH4)6MO7O24.4H2O in 5 ml. of deionized water.
