Description: Synthesis gas (CO + H₂) is a versatile and significant resource. In this communication we show that cobalt loaded on ZSM-5 (Co-ZSM-5) catalyses the formation of synthesis gas from CH₄, under partial oxidation conditions using N₂O as oxidant. With O₂ as oxidant over the same Co-ZSM-5 catalyst, cobalt on alumina and Fe-ZSM-5, only COₓ and H₂O are formed. Isolated Co²⁺ sites in the ZSM-5 support are proposed as the active sites for H₂ (synthesis gas) formation.
