Catalytic and acid-base properties of sulfided silica-supported P-Mo heteropolyacid (HPA) during the interval of its thermal stability are studied. The acidity is found to depend on the extent of dehydration and sulfidation. Within a certain range of the strength of the acid sites, the acidity of sulfided HPA directly correlates with its activity in thiophene conversion.
