The properties of oxidized and reduced copper-chromium catalysts for cyclohexanol dehydrogenation have been investigated. It has been shown that during synthesis of the catalysts, phases of the compound CuCrO/sub 4/ form. A correlation has been established between the amount of the compound and the activity of the catalyst in the dehydrogenation reaction, and it is postulated that the CuCrO/sub 4/ is a precursor of the most active catalytic sites in this reaction. It is shown that side reactions of the dehydration of C/sub 6/H/sub 12/O and the condensation of C/sub 6/H/sub 10/O occur in the Cr/sub 2/O/sub 3/ formed on the surface of the reduced catalysts.
