  Abstract

In this review we discussed the effective ways to catalytically derive value-added chemicals from propane which has been utilized only as an energy source so far. Among various propane-derived products, the most valuable chemicals such as propylene and acrylonitrile were mainly focused herein. Propylene could be manufactured through oxidative dehydrogenation of propane using O2, CO2, etc. as an oxidant for the purpose of overcoming thermodynamic limitations of propane dehydrogenation. On the other hand, propane ammoxidation would be an alternative to propylene ammoxidation for producing acrylonitrile since propane is much cheaper than propylene as a starting material. Although effective MoVTeNbOx catalysts have been developed for propane ammoxidation in recent years, more detailed studies should be thoroughly performed. In carrying out both oxidative dehydrogenation and ammoxidation of propane for a long period, the most critical issue is definitely considered to find out the most active and selective catalysts, which makes it possible to commercialize both reactions into economically viable processes.
