Role of chlorine in improving selectivity in the oxidative coupling of methane of ethylene

Samarium, magnesium and manganese oxide and alkali-promoted oxide catalysts have been prepared and tested for the oxidative coupling of methane. The results show that alkali-promoted oxides inhibit total oxidation and have a higher selectivity for the formation of C2 products than the undoped metal...
