TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to obtain isopropyl alcohol in high yield by subjecting acetone to heat reaction with hydrogen at a lower molar ratio of hydrogen and acetone in the presence of a copper oxide-chromium oxide catalyst.
Abstract: PURPOSE: To economically obtain isopropyl alcohol in high yield by subjecting acetone to heat reaction with hydrogen at a lower molar ratio of hydrogen and acetone in the presence of a copper oxide-chromium oxide catalyst CONSTITUTION: When acetone is reacted with hydrogen or a hydrogen-containing gas consisting of hydrogen and inert gas in the presence of a copper oxide- chromium oxide in vapor phase to afford the subject substance, the reaction is carried out in a molar ratio of hydrogen to acetone of 11-50 or in a molar ratio of hydrogen-containing gas to acetone of ≤50 at 60-200°C reaction temperature and 1-10kg/cm 2 G As for the hydrogen, high-purity hydrogen may be unnecessary and hydrogen containing methane produced in ethylene production plant or hydrogen containing nitrogen can also be used COPYRIGHT: (C)1991,JPO&Japio

31 Mar 2005TL;DR: An anode is formed by a metal electrocatalyst including an element mixture made up of platinum and at least one of ruthenium and molybdenum as an active constituent as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: An anode is formed by a metal electrocatalyst including an element mixture made up of platinum and at least one of ruthenium and molybdenum as an active constituent which electrocatalyst is fabricated under vacuum using a vapor phase method, and in this way, the speed of electrode oxidation reaction of alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, and isopropyl alcohol may be substantially increased. Also, by using such an electrocatalyst as the anode, a direct alcohol fuel cell with a high output may be realized using alcohol that is not reformed as fuel.
