Vanadium oxide spread highly on TiO2 (anatase, A) and SnO2, and rather densely on TiO2 (rutile, R) and ZrO2 to make the monolayer in less than 4-5 V nm(-2). Profile of acid site of the monolayer was measured by temperature programmed desorption of ammonia, and its relation with the surface oxidation state was studied. The acid site density was high on the V2O5/TiO2 (A) independent of the degree of oxidation. On the other hand, that Of V2O5/TiO2 (R) and V2O5/ZrO2 depended on the oxidation state, and the high value of the concentration was observed on the oxidized one. The strength of acid site generated on the V2O5 monolayer on TiO2 was as high as on the HZSM-5 zeolite. Turnover frequency (TOF) of propane conversion, and product selectivity were measured in propane oxidation. Among tested oxides, the V2O5/TiO2 (A) showed the high TOF and selectivity to form propylene, while those loaded on TiO2 (R) and ZrO2 the small TOF and poor selectivity. Therefore, the reaction profile of activity and selectivity could be related with the extent of spreading and solid acidity. An idea of limit of the acid site density ca. 1.5 nm(-2) on the monolayer was elucidated.
