Abstract—The change in the surface composition of a MoB catalyst in the epoxidation of 1-octene with tert-
butyl hydroperoxide and the effects of the reactant concentrations and reaction products (tert-butanol and 1,2-
epoxyoctane) on this process have been studied.

Keywords: molybdenum boride, catalyst, activation, epoxidation, 1-octene, tert-butyl hydroperoxide
