The study presents a comparative analysis of catalytic properties of new Nb₂SbVO₁₀ ternary oxide against those of a mechanical mixture of single oxides and a mixture of single with binary oxide, all of the same chemical composition. Moreover, the material without antimony (Nb₉VO₂₅) was tested. Acid–base and redox properties were studied in the following test reactions: 2-propanol decomposition, acetonylacetone (AcOAc) cyclisation and methanol oxidation. The properties of ternary oxide and the mechanical mixture of single oxides are not significantly different. The main difference is in the generation of more active Lewis acid–base pairs in ternary oxide, which is demonstrated by the higher production of ether in the intermolecular dehydration of 2-propanol. Acidic/basic and redox properties of the oxide catalysts containing Nb, Sb, V, O (atomic ratio: 2:1:1:10) strongly depend on the presence of binary oxide, which significantly enhances the basicity of the catalysts. The highest basicity was found for pure binary oxide Nb₉VO₂₅ but this catalyst without Sb exhibits much lower activity in the transformation of both alcohols.
