Title: Periodic trends in the hydrodenitrogenation activity of carbon-supported transition metal sulfide catalysts

Journal Article · · J. Catal.; (United States)

Periodic trends of transition metals for the catalysis of reactions such as hydrogenation, hydrogenolysis, isomerization and hydrogen oxidation have been well studied. When activity versus position of the transition metal in the periodic table is plotted, quite often these trends are manifested in the form of so-called volcano-type curves. In the present study, the authors have chosen the HDN of quinoline at moderately high pressure as a model reaction, and they have used the same carbon-supported transition metal sulfide catalysts studied by Vissers et al. Results are shown for the following transition metals: V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, W, Re, Os, Ir, and Pt. 9 references.
