Oligomerization of higher olefins and oxidation in a series of isobutanol — isobutyric aldehyde — isobutyric acid in the presence of some heteropoly compounds

The results of oligomerization of C 6 -olefins and oxidation in a series: isobutanol - isobutyric aldehyde - isobutyric acid. in the presence of some 12-Heteropoly acids (HPA) and their compounds are given. It is shown that the reaction may takes place on the surface of these catalysts as well as in their bulk. By modifying the studied heteropoly acids and their compounds or supporting them on the surface of some substrates can increase its efficiency.
