Non Noble-Metal Copper-Cobalt Bimetallic Catalyst for Efficient Catalysis of the Hydrogenolysis of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5-Dimethylfuran under Mild Conditions.

ABSTRACT: The efficient catalysis of the hydrogenation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) over non noble-metal catalysts has received great attention in recent years. However, the reaction usually requires harsh conditions, such as high reaction temperature and excessively long reaction time, which limits the application of the non noble-metal catalysts. In this work, a bimetallic Co _x -Cu@C catalyst was prepared via the pyrolysis of MOFs, and an 85% DMF yield was achieved under a reaction temperature and time of 160 °C and 3 h, respectively. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) mapping, and other characterization techniques showed that the synthesis method in this paper realized the in situ loading of cobalt into the copper catalyst. The reaction mechanism studies revealed that the cobalt doping effectively enhanced the hydrogenation activity of the copper-based catalyst on the C-O bond at a low temperature. Moreover, the bimetallic Co _x -Cu@C catalyst exhibited superior reusability without any loss in the activity when subjected to five testing rounds.

Project description:One of the most promising solutions to the current energy crisis is an efficient catalytic transformation of abundant low-cost renewable raw biomass into high-quality biofuel. Herein, a highly effective catalyst was constructed systematically for the selective synthesis of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) biofuel from biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) via green catalytic transfer hydrogenolysis (CTH) using a nitrogen-doped ordered mesoporous carbon (N-CMK-1) decorated ruthenium (Ru)-based catalyst in i-propanol as hydrogen source. The structures and properties of different catalysts were characterized by different characterization techniques such as FTIR, XRD, N2-sorption, CO2-sorption, TGA, TEM, ICP-AES, CHNO analysis, and acid-base back titration. A complete HMF conversion with a high DMF yield of 88% was achieved under optimized reaction conditions. Regarding substrate conversion and product yield, the influence of reaction temperature, time, and hydrogen donors was thoroughly investigated. The nitrogen-promoted carbon support enhanced the dispersion of Ru due to the formation of appropriate basic site density which could efficiently promote the activation of alcohol hydroxyl in i-propanol and subsequent release of active hydrogen species. In the meantime, highly dispersed surface Ru nanoparticles (NPs) were beneficial for hydrogen transfer and activation of both carbonyl and hydroxyl groups in HMF. Moreover, Arrhenius kinetic analysis was studied by identifying 5-methyl furfural (5-MF) and 2,5-bishydroxymethylfuran (BHMF) as two key intermediates that dominate a distinct reaction pathway during hydrogenolysis of HMF to DMF via CTH. Furthermore, high stability without obvious loss of activity after three consecutive cycles was observed in a fabricated N-CMK-1 decorated Ru-based catalyst as a result of superior metal-support interaction and the mesoporous framework nature of the catalyst. These findings would not only offer a robust catalyst synthetic approach but also open a new avenue for the exploitation of biomass to specialty chemicals and advanced biofuels.
