Molybdenum-doped mesoporous SBA-15, mesoporous SBA-15-supported MoO3/SBA-15, and traditional silica-supported MoO3/SiO2 were successfully synthesized. Various techniques, such as XRD, TEM, BET, UV-DRS, Raman, XPS and IR, were used to characterize the above obtained materials. The studies of TEM, XRD and BET confirmed that the highly ordered mesoporous structure of SBA-15 was maintained in the doped Mo-SBA-15 whereas supported MoO3/SBA-15 showed a significant reduction in surface area due to the deposition of MoO3 nanoparticles into the SBA-15 channels. XPS studies revealed that a high concentration of Mo5+ species appeared in doped Mo-SBA-15 whereas supported MoO3/SBA-15 and MoO3/SiO2 only contained Mo6+ species. The metathesis reaction of 1-butene and ethene to propene was used to evaluate the catalytic performance of Mo-containing materials. The doped Mo-SBA-15 illustrated a superior catalytic performance over the supported MoO3/SBA-15 and MoO3/SiO2 catalysts. The enhancement of catalytic performance for doped Mo-SBA-15 was assigned to the incorporation of Mo species into the SBA-15 framework. Due to the doping method, Mo-SBA-15 exhibited a well-ordered mesoporous structure, a high surface area, and a high concentration of Mo5+ species, which is beneficial to the catalytic performance for metathesis reactions.
