Dehydrogenation of alcohols over non-acidic metal-zeolite catalysts

摘要

The invention relates to a catalytic dehydrogenation of alcohols to produce ketones and/or aldehydes. The catalyst comprises a dehydrogenation metal and a non-acidic microporous crystalline material as a support. The support may contain indium, tin, thallium or lead, when the dehydrogenation metal is a Group VIII metal.
