Oxidation of 1-C{sub 4}H{sub 8} on YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7-x} catalysts prepared by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) (C{sub 1}) and by conventional furnace technology (C{sub 2}) was studied. The ESR experiments show that both C{sub 1} and C{sub 2} samples lose their superconducting properties as the reaction of 1-butene oxidation proceeds. However, sample C{sub 1} retains its catalytic activity in the conversion of butene to butadiene and promotes the deep oxidation reaction, whereas sample C{sub 2} is ineffective in these processes.
