Selective oxidation of methanol to dimethoxymethane under mild conditions over V2O5/TiO2 with enhanced surface acidity

Yuchuan Fu, Jianyi Shen

Open publisher page 88 citations

Abstract

Dimethoxymethane was synthesized from the direct oxidation of methanol with high conversion and selectivity over specially designed bifunctional V(2)O(5)/TiO2 catalysts with redox and enhanced acidic character, in which the surface acidity played an essential role for inhibiting the formation of formaldehyde through the enhanced condensation reaction of formaldehyde with methanol to produce dimethoxymethane.
