Tantalum-containing SiBEA zeolite with isolated framework mononuclear Ta(V) doped with Ag, Cu and Zn were prepared and characterized by XRD, XPS, DR UV-VIS and FTIR (with 2 of additional dehydrogenation sites. Such modification allows accelerating ethanol dehydrogenation to acetaldehyde and subsequent steps of the ethanol-to-butadiene process.Ethanol conversion and butadiene selectivity over the catalysts increase in the order: TaSiBEA < ZnTaSiBEA < AgTaSiBEA < CuTaSiBEA. Higher selectivity to butadiene (73 %) was achieved over CuTaSiBEA (at 88% ethanol conversion, T = 598 К, WHSV = 0.5 h -1 ). 22ASSOCIATED CONTENT Supporting Information.
