Oxidation of n-octane was carried out in a stationary reactor using immobilized manganese nanoparticles in various mass percentages (5 and 10 wt.%) on poly(4-vinylpyridine). It was found that manganese-containing catalysts immobilized in polymer are more active in the oxidation of n-octane than similar homogeneous catalysts. A kinetic model and an equation for calculating the oxidation of n-octane in the presence of a manganese-polymer catalyst were chosen for the calculation. Taking into account the kinetic model, the velocity constant of the specified process is calculated. A high conversion in the oxidation reaction of n-octane with molecular oxygen was obtained
