The partial oxidation of 3- and 4-methylpyridines on V 2 O 5 and vanadium oxide catalysts doped with TiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , and ZrO 2 was studied. The catalytic activities of the studied catalysts were correlated with the calculated proton affinities of the vanadyl oxygen. A possible mechanism of the surface stages of the partial oxidation of 3- and 4-methylpyridines on the vanadium oxide catalysts was discussed.
