Abstract Catalytic oxidation of ethane with N2O in the presence of water has been investigated over various metal oxides. Zinc oxide showed a high catalytic activity for the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane (52.0% conversion and 80.0% selectivity at 823K), while a 14.2% combined selectivity for acetaldehyde and ethanol formation was attained at a 8.9% conversion of ethane over a 2.1 wt% MoO3/SiO2 catalyst at 773K.
