The CVD Fe/Mo/supporting matrix (borosilicate molecular sieve, ZSM-5 o
r silicalite) was studied for gas-phase oxygen oxidation of p-xylene.
The partially deboronated borosilicate molecular sieve matrix (DBH) pl
ayed a unique role for the selective aldehyde synthesis. Terephthaldeh
yde was produced over CVD Fe/Mo/DBH, while disproportionation of p-xyl
ene became predominant over CVD Fe/Mo/ZSM-5. The CVD Fe/Mo/silicalite
exhibited relatively low activity and poor aldehyde selectivity.
