Synthesis of complex hydroxo salts of magnesium, nickel, cobalt, aluminum, and bismuth and oxide catalysts on their base

Synthesis methods have been developed for the precursors of oxide catalysts that include the combination of magnesium nickel cobalt aluminum hydroxocarbonate, with a layered hydrotalcite-type structure and decavanadate and paramolybdate ions in the anion layers, and bismuth hydroxocarbonate. On the base of these precursors, multicomponent oxide catalysts have been manufactured for the oxidative dehydrogenation (OD) of light alkanes. Some of these catalysts showed high selectivities and high product yields in the conversion of ethane to ethylene.
