Catalytic performance of rare earth oxides in ketonization of acetic acid

TL;DR: In this article, a series of rare earth oxides were investigated as catalysts in the ketonization of acetic acid, and high selectivity to acetone over 99% was obtained by reacting acetic acids over rare earth Oxides such as La 2 O 3, CeO 2, Pr 6 O 11, and Nd 2 O3.

Studies on the ketonization of acetic acid on chromia: II. The surface reaction

TL;DR: In this paper, a mechanism for the surface reaction of acetic acid on chromia is suggested and discussed based on a comparison of the energies of activation and the previously established fact that both the dehydration and dehydrogenation activity of chromia are required for the ketonization reaction.

Modification of the activity of chromia and chromia-alumina catalysts by adsorbates

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of doping semiconductor oxides can be simulated by mixing reactants with other substances, such as acetic acid or hydrogen, in the light of the effect the chemisorption of various compounds has on the electronic character of the catalyst.
