Effects of the enhancement of the abstraction of lattice oxygen from magnesium vanadates incorporated with copper(II) cations on the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane

The influence of the incorporation of copper(II) cations into MgV2O6, Mg2V2O7 and Mg3V2O8 on the catalytic activities and the mobility of lattice oxygen in those catalysts have been investigated to observe the contribution of lattice oxygen in magnesium vanadates to the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane.
