    Abstract: 5195 The present invention relates to s method for maintaining and improving the activity of PMA based catalysts during reactor shutdown by flushing the reactor with an oxide of nitrogen gas at a temperature of from about 150.degree. C to about 370.degree. C. The method can be employed in the reactor by terminating the feed of hydrocarbon to the reactor and then flushing the reactor. The method can be employed to treat PMA based catalysts having the general formula MoxPyAaBbCcDcEcOz wherein A is selected from the group consisting of ammonium, cesium, potassium, rubidium and thallium; B is selected from the group consisting of copper and vanadium; C is selected from the group consisting of antimony, arsenic, bismuth and tellurium; D is palladium; E is aluminum, barium, calcium, cerium, chromium, cobalt, iron, magnesium, manganese, nickel, tantalum, titanium, tungsten, zinc, zirconium, chlorine and/or bromine; x can be 6 to 14; y can be 0.1 to 15; a can be 0.1 to 3; b can be 0.1 to 3; c can be 0 to 2; d can be 0 to 2; e can be 0 to 4 and z is a number necessary to satisfy the other elements.

    Abstract: Hydroperoxides are catalytically decomposed using a novel metal complex of the formula: wherein M is a positively charged metal or metal compound; Z is S, O, P, S-P, or S-S; L is C, P, or N; and A is selected from the group consisting of halogens; hydrogen: N-R wherein R is selected from the group consisting of H, C1-30 alkyls and 4 to 8 membered aryls optionally substituted with one or more Cl1-20 alkyls and C1-20 alkoxys; and hydrocarbon groups containing up to 30 carbon atoms optionally substituted with halogen atoms, C1-12hydroxy groups, C1-12 acid groups, C1-2 aldehyde groups, C1-12 ketone groups, and C1-10 nitrile groups; and wherein n is 1 or 2; and b is 1, 2 or 3. These catalysts are especially effective in decomposing either cumene hydroperoxide or cyclohexylbenzene hydroperoxide to phenol.
