Resumo

Strontium-substituted lanthanum cobaltite (La0.8Sr0.2CoO3) matrix-stabilized Co-0/Co-II catalytic sites were prepared, which present tunable C-O and C-C hydrogenolysis activity for the vapor-phase upgrading of oxygenated arenes. Co-II sites associated with oxygen vacancies were favored at low temperatures and performed selective C-O hydrogenolysis, in which Sr-substitution facilitated oxygen vacancy formation, leading to approximately 10times higher reactivity compared to undoped LaCoO3. Co-0 sites were favored at high temperatures and performed extensive C-C bond hydrogenolysis, generating a wide range of alkanes. The lower reaction order with PH2 (1.1 +/- 0.1) for C-C hydrogenolysis than for C-O hydrogenolysis (2.0 +/- 0.1) led to a high selectivity towards C-C hydrogenolysis at low PH2 . The Co3O4 surfaces featured a narrower temperature window for obtaining the respective optimal Co-II and Co-0 pairs compared to analogous perovskite surfaces; whereas, the perovskite matrix stabilizes these pairs for selective C-O and C-C hydrogenolysis. This stabilization effect offers an additional handle to control reactivity in oxide catalysts. (AU)
