Abstract

Mo oxide species were prepared on oxide supports and applied for selective photo-oxidation of propane. Mo oxide on mesoporous alumina had a monomeric structure whereas that on mesoporous silica had an oligomeric structure. The main product of the propane photo-oxidation reaction was acetone and propene on Mo oxide monomer unit and on oligomer unit, respectively.
