    Influence of the Support on Propene Oxidation over Gold Catalysts

    The epoxidation of propene without forming a substantial amount of byproducts is one of the holy grails of catalysis. Supported Cu, Ag and Au catalysts are studied for this reaction and the activity of the supported metals is generally well understood. On the contrary, limited information is available on the influence of the support on the epoxide selectivity. The reaction of propene with equal amounts of hydrogen and oxygen was tested over gold nanoparticles deposited onto CeO2, TiO2, WO3, γ‐Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2‐SiO2 and titanosilicate‐1. Several metal oxide supports caused further conversion of the synthesized propene oxide. Strongly acidic supports, such as WO3 and titanosilicate‐1, catalyzed the isomerization of propene oxide towards propanal and acetone. Key factors for achieving high PO selectivity are having inert or neutralized surface sites, a low specific surface and/or a low density of surface ‐OH groups. This work provides insights and practical guidelines to which metal oxide support properties lead to which products in the reaction of propene in the presence of oxygen and hydrogen over supported gold catalysts
