Abstract
Rhodium niobate was prepared as a complex oxide supported on silica via tetra-alkyl ammonium and citrate complexation. After calcination at 750 °C, the complex oxide was formed essentially in the monophasic columbite structure as determined by means of XRD. The two silica-supported RhNbO4 catalysts were tested for their activity toward ethane hydrogenolysis, and a large difference in SMSI behavior was observed for the two preparations.
