Abstract

Despite the enormous interest raised in a few industrially important reactions (ammonia synthesis and decomposition, hydrodenitrogenation, hydrodesulphurization, hydrogenation, dehydrogenation and reforming reactions) molybdenum nitrides are the less studied class of compounds and fascinated keen attention to replace the noble metals as the catalytic activities of these materials resembles or exceed to that of noble metals. Out of the above said reactions nitride catalysts have been extensively studied for ammonia synthesis and decomposition reactions due to the presence of active molybdenum–nitrogen sites. Nitride materials can be produced by incorporation of nitrogen into the interstitial position of the early transition metals by dissimilar methods at higher temperatures. The present review focus mainly on the synthesis of binary and ternary molybdenum nitrides via different routes and application of these materials to the industrial catalytic reactions.

摘要

尽管在一些工业上重要的反应（氨合成和分解，加氢脱氮，加氢脱硫，氢化，脱氢和重整反应）上引起了极大兴趣，但氮化钼是研究较少的化合物，着迷着迷于取代贵金属作为催化活性这些材料中的一种类似于或超过贵金属。在上述反应之外，由于存在活性钼-氮位，因此对氨合成和分解反应进行了广泛的研究。可以通过在较高温度下通过不同的方法将氮掺入到早期过渡金属的间隙位置中来生产氮化物材料。
