Abstract
Using alcohol catalytic chemical vapor deposition technique, the relationships among catalyst species, alcohol and synthesis temperature have been investigated in the temperature range from 600 to 1000 °C. In this experiment molybdenum-cobalt functions best as a catalyst among the three catalysts (iron-cobalt, Fe/Co; molybdenum-cobalt, Mo/Co; rhodium-palladium, Rh/Pd), for ethanol. A similar temperature dependency has been observed for both Fe/Co and Mo/Co catalysts; however, different chiral indices have been synthesized. In case of methanol, Mo/Co can work less efficiently than Fe/Co.
