Controlled Metal–Support Interactions in Au/CeO<sub>2</sub>–Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> Catalysts Activating the Direct Oxidative Esterification of Methacrolein with Methanol to Methyl Methacrylate
The strong metal–support interaction (SMSI) between the three components in Au/CeO<sub>2</sub>–Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> can be controlled by the relative composition of CeO<sub>2</sub> and Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> and by the calcination temperature for the direct...

The strong metal–support interaction (SMSI) between the three components in Au/CeO<sub>2</sub>–Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> can be controlled by the relative composition of CeO<sub>2</sub> and Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> and by the calcination temperature for the direct oxidative esterification of methacrolein (MACR) with methanol to methyl methacrylate (MMA). The composition ratio of CeO<sub>2</sub> and Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> in the catalyst affects the catalytic performance dramatically. An Au/CeO<sub>2</sub> catalyst without Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> esterified MACR to a hemiacetal species without MMA production, which confirmed that Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> is a prerequisite for successful oxidative esterification. When Au/Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> was used without CeO<sub>2</sub>, the direct oxidative esterification of MACR was successful and produced MMA, the desired product. However, the MMA selectivity was much lower (72.5%) than that with Au/CeO<sub>2</sub>–Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub> catalysts, which have an MMA selectivity of 93.9–99.8%, depending on the relative composition of CeO<sub>2</sub> and Mg(OH)<sub>2</sub>.
