  2. Vanadium phosphates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadium_phosphates

    Reduction of this compound with alcohols gives the vanadium(IV) phosphates. These compounds are catalysts for the oxidation of butane to maleic anhydride. A key step in the activation of these catalysts is the conversion of VO(HPO 4)•0.5H 2 O to the pyrophosphate (VO) 2 (P 2 O 7). This material (CAS#58834-75-6) is called vanadyl pyrophosphate ...

  3. Vanadium compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadium_compounds

    Vanadium compounds are compounds formed by the element vanadium (V). The chemistry of vanadium is noteworthy for the accessibility of the four adjacent oxidation states 2–5, whereas the chemistry of the other group 5 elements , niobium and tantalum , are somewhat more limited to the +5 oxidation state.

  4. Phosphide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphide

    In chemistry, a phosphide is a compound containing the P 3− ion or its equivalent. Many different phosphides are known, with widely differing structures. [ 1 ] Most commonly encountered on the binary phosphides, i.e. those materials consisting only of phosphorus and a less electronegative element.

  5. Group 5 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_5_element

    Vanadium(V) oxide or vanadium pentoxide is the most common, being precursor to most alloys and compounds of vanadium, and is also a widely used industrial catalyst. [ 29 ] Niobium forms oxides in the oxidation states +5 ( Nb 2 O 5 ), [ 30 ] +4 ( NbO 2 ), and the rarer oxidation state, +2 ( NbO ). [ 31 ]

  6. Oxyphosphides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxyphosphides

    Oxyphosphides are chemical compounds formally containing the group PO, with one phosphorus and one oxygen atom. The phosphorus and oxygen are not bound together as in phosphates or phosphine oxides, instead they are bound separately to the cations (metals), and could be considered as a mixed phosphide-oxide compound.

  7. Vanadium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadium

    The name was based on the wide range of colors found in vanadium compounds. Del Río's lead mineral was ultimately named vanadinite for its vanadium content. In 1867, Henry Enfield Roscoe obtained the pure element. Vanadium occurs naturally in about 65 minerals and fossil fuel deposits. It is produced in China and Russia from steel smelter slag.

  8. Pnictogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pnictogen

    These are in the form of RE a M b Pn c, where M is a carbon group or boron group element and Pn is any pnictogen except nitrogen. These compounds are between ionic and covalent compounds and thus have unusual bonding properties. [4] These elements are also noted for their stability in compounds due to their tendency to form covalent double ...
