Abstract
A good correlation was found between the amount of NO22− formed by adsorption of NO on CaO and the rate of cis–trans interconversion of 2-butene. The cis–trans isomerization which occurred very rapidly over CaO evacuated at 700–900°C was inhibited by adsorption of NO, whereas the double bond isomerization was not. Active sites for the cis–trans interconversion was ascribed to unusually strong basic sites.Keywords
