It is important but challenging to prohibit deep oxidation of alkene in oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkane. Here, dual active sites are tailored to isolate dehydrogenation and oxidation thus achieving superior ethene selectivity.
Prohibiting deep oxidation remains a challenging task in oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkane since the targeted alkene is more reactive than parent substrate. Here we tailor dual active sites to isolate dehydrogenation and oxidation instead of homogeneously active sites responsible for these two steps leading to consecutive oxidation of alkene. The introduction of HY zeolite with acid sites, three-dimensional pore structure and supercages gives rise to Ni2+ Lewis acid sites (LAS) and NiO nanoclusters confined in framework wherein catalytic dehydrogenation of ethane occurs on Ni2+ LAS resulting in the formation of ethene and hydrogen while NiO nanoclusters with decreased oxygen reactivity are responsible for selective oxidation of hydrogen rather than over-oxidizing ethene. Such tailored strategy achieves near 100% ethene selectivity and constitutes a promising basis for highly selective oxidation catalysis beyond oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkane.
