Production of cyclopentanone from furfural over Ru/C with Al_11.6PO_23.7 and application in the synthesis of diesel range alkanes.

ABSTRACT: The bio-based platform molecule furfural was converted to the high value chemical cyclopentanone over Ru/C (0.5 wt%) and Al_11.6PO_23.7 catalysts in good yield (84%) with water as the medium. After screening the reaction conditions, the selectivity for cyclopentanone and cyclopentanol could be controlled by adjusting the hydrogen pressure at the temperature of 433 K. Herein, we propose a new mechanism for the synergistic catalysis of a Bronsted acid and Lewis acid for the conversion of furfural to cyclopentanone through the cyclopentenone route, which is catalyzed by Ru/C and Al_11.6PO_23.7. In addition, based on cyclopentanone, higher octane number cyclic alkanes (>85% selectivity), which are used as hydrocarbon fuels, were synthesized via a C-C coupling reaction followed by hydrodeoxygenation.

Chemoselective decarboxylation of ceiba oil to diesel-range alkanes over a red mud based catalyst under H2-free conditions.

Project description:Concerns over global greenhouse gas emissions such as CO x and NO x as well as the depletion of petroleum fossil resources have motivated humankind to seek an alternative energy source known as green diesel. In this study, green diesel was produced via a deoxygenation (DO) reaction of ceiba oil under a H2-free atmosphere over Ni modified red mud-based catalysts, which have been synthesized via a precipitation - deep-deposition assisted autoclave method. The obtained catalyst was further characterized by XRF, XRD, BET, FTIR, TPD-NH3, FESEM, and TGA. Based on the catalytic activity test, all Ni/RMO x catalysts facilitated greater DO activity by yielding 83-86% hydrocarbon yield and 70-85% saturated diesel n-(C15 + C17) selectivity. Ni/RMO3 was the best catalyst for deoxygenizing the ceiba oil owing to the existence of a high acidic strength (12717.3 μmol g-1) and synergistic interaction between Fe-O and Ni-O species, thereby producing the highest hydrocarbon yield (86%) and n-(C15 + C17) selectivity (85%). According to the reusability study, the Ni/RMO3 could be reused for up to six consecutive runs with hydrocarbon yields ranging from 53% to 83% and n-(C15 + C17) selectivity ranging from 62% to 83%.

Single-Pot Reductive Rearrangement of Furfural to Cyclopentanone over Silica-Supported Pd Catalysts.

Project description:Direct one-pot hydrogenation of furfural (FFR) to cyclopentanone (CPO) was investigated over different silica-supported Pd catalysts. Among these, 4% Pd on fumed silica (4%Pd/f-SiO2) showed remarkable results, achieving almost 98% furfural (FFR) conversion with ∼89% selectivity and 87% yield to cyclopentanone at 165 °C and 500 psig H2 pressure. More interestingly, the fumed-silica-supported catalyst tuned the selectivity toward the rearrangement product, i.e., cyclopentanone, whereas all of the other supports were found to give ring hydrogenation as well as side chain hydrogenation products due to their parent Brönsted acidity and specific support properties. X-ray diffraction data revealed the presence of different phases of the face-centered cubic lattice of metallic Pd along with lowest crystallite size of 15.6 nm in the case of the silica-supported Pd catalyst. However, Pd particle size was found to be in the range of 5-13 nm with even dispersion over the silica support, confirmed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis. While studying the effect of reaction parameters, it was observed that lower temperature gave low furfural conversion of 58% with only 51% CPO selectivity. Similarly, higher H2 pressure lowered CPO selectivity with subsequent increase in 2-methyl furan and ring hydrogenation product 2-methyl furan and 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran. Thus, as per the requirement, the product selectivity can be tuned by varying the type of support and/or the reaction parameters suitably. With the help of several control experiments and the characterization data, a plausible reaction pathway was proposed for the selective formation of cyclopentanone.

Synthesis of piperidines and pyridine from furfural over a surface single-atom alloy Ru1CoNP catalyst.

Project description:The sustainable production of value-added N-heterocycles from available biomass allows to reduce the reliance on fossil resources and creates possibilities for economically and ecologically improved synthesis of fine and bulk chemicals. Herein, we present a unique Ru1CoNP/HAP surface single-atom alloy (SSAA) catalyst, which enables a new type of transformation from the bio-based platform chemical furfural to give N-heterocyclic piperidine. In the presence of NH3 and H2, the desired product is formed under mild conditions with a yield up to 93%. Kinetic studies show that the formation of piperidine proceeds via a series of reaction steps. Initially, in this cascade process, furfural amination to furfurylamine takes place, followed by hydrogenation to tetrahydrofurfurylamine (THFAM) and then ring rearrangement to piperidine. DFT calculations suggest that the Ru1CoNP SSAA structure facilitates the direct ring opening of THFAM resulting in 5-amino-1-pentanol which is quickly converted to piperidine. The value of the presented catalytic strategy is highlighted by the synthesis of an actual drug, alkylated piperidines, and pyridine.

Hydrogenative Ring-Rearrangement of Furfural to Cyclopentanone over Pd/UiO-66-NO2 with Tunable Missing-Linker Defects.

Project description:Upgrading furfural (FAL) to cyclopentanone (CPO) is of great importance for the synthesis of high-value chemicals and biomass utilization. The hydrogenative ring-rearrangement of FAL is catalyzed by metal-acid bifunctional catalysts. The Lewis acidity is a key factor in promoting the rearrangement of furan rings and achieving a high selectivity to CPO. In this work, highly dispersed Pd nanoparticles were successfully encapsulated into the cavities of a Zr based MOF, UiO-66-NO2, by impregnation using a double-solvent method (DSM) followed by H2 reduction. The obtained Pd/UiO-66-NO2 catalyst showed a significantly better catalytic performance in the aforementioned reaction than the Pd/UiO-66 catalyst due to the higher Lewis acidity of the support. Moreover, by using a thermal treatment. The Lewis acidity can be further increased through the creating of missing-linker defects. The resulting defective Pd/UiO-66-NO2 exhibited the highest CPO selectivity and FAL conversion of 96.6% and 98.9%, respectively. In addition, the catalyst was able to maintain a high activity and stability after four consecutive runs. The current study not only provides an efficient catalytic reaction system for the hydrogenative ring-rearrangement of furfural to cyclopentanone but also emphasizes the importance of defect sites.

Efficient synthesis of C15 fuel precursor by heterogeneously catalyzed aldol-condensation of furfural with cyclopentanone.

Project description:The aldol-condensation reaction of biomass-derived furfural and cyclopentanone coupled with hydrogenation/hydrodeoxygenation is a promising route for the production of renewable high-quality diesel or jet fuel. In this paper, we focus on the heterogeneously catalyzed aldol condensation of furfural with cyclopentanone, in order to maximize the yield of 2,5-bis(2-furylmethylidene)cyclopentan-1-one (F2C, a C15 fuel precursor). Experiments were conducted over a series of solid-base catalysts and it was found that potassium fluoride impregnated alumina shown the highest catalytic efficiency. We further investigated the effect of different parameters on the performance of KF/γ-Al2O3, including KF loading amount, solvent, reaction time and temperature. Over KF/γ-Al2O3 with a 33% KF loading amount, the aldol reaction achieved an F2C molar yield up to 95.4% at 333 K within 2 h. Under the nearly optimal condition, the separated solid product is almost F2C with a purity of 100%, providing a high-quality biofuel precursor for the next processing step.

Intensifying Cyclopentanone Synthesis from Furfural Using Supported Copper Catalysts.

Project description:This work addresses catalytic strategies to intensify the synthesis of cyclopentanone, a bio-based platform chemical and a potential SAF precursor, via Cu-catalyzed furfural hydrogenation in aqueous media. When performed in a single step, using either uniform or staged catalytic bed configuration, high temperature and hydrogen pressures (180 °C and 38 bar) are necessary for maximum CPO yields (37 and 49 %, respectively). Parallel furanic ring hydrogenation of furfural and polymerisation of intermediates, namely furfuryl alcohol (FFA), limit CPO yields. Employing a two step configuration with optimal catalyst bed can curb this limitation. First, the furanic ring hydrogenation can be suppressed by using milder conditions (i. e., 150 °C and 7 bar, and 14 seconds of residence time). Second, FFA hydrogenation using tandem catalysis, i. e., a mix of β-zeolite and Cu/ZrO2, at 180 °C, 38 bar and 0.6, allows sufficient time for CPO formation and minimises polymerisation of FFA, thereby resulting in 60 % CPO yield. Therefore, this work recommends a split strategy to produce CPO from furfural. Such modularity may aid in addressing flexible market needs.

1,2-Dichloroethane Deep Oxidation over Bifunctional Ru/Ce x Al y Catalysts.

Project description:Ru/Ce x Al y catalysts were synthesized with impregnation of RuCl3 aqueous solution on Ce x Al y (Al2O3-CeO2) and used in 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE) oxidation. Characterization by X-ray diffraction, Raman, NH3-temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), CO2-TPD, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and H2-temperature-programmed reduction indicates that CeO2 exists as a form of face-centered cubic fluorite structure, whereas the chemical states and the structure of Ru species are dependent on the Ce content. The reducibility and acidity of catalysts increase with Ce/Ce + Al ratio. However, the latter is promoted only in a Ce/Ce + Al range of 0-0.25 and then decreases quickly. Ru/Ce x Al y catalysts have considerable activity for 1,2-DCE combustion. TOFRu of 1,2-DCE oxidation increases with strong acid, which is ascribed to a synergy of reducibility and acidity. Ru greatly inhibits the chlorination through the decreases in both Cl deposition and CH2=CHCl formation. High stability of Ru/Ce10Al90 maintains at 280 °C for at least 25 h with CO2 selectivity of 99% or higher. In situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicates that 1,2-DCE dissociates to form ClCH2-CH2O- species, which is an intermediate species for the production of CH3CHO and CH2=CHCl, the former responsible for deep oxidation.

Synthesis of renewable diesel and jet fuel range alkanes using 2-methylfuran and cyclohexanone.

Project description:New solid acid catalysts were prepared by bisphenol A, paraformaldehyde and chlorosulfonic acid, and applied to hydroxylalkylation/alkylation (HAA) of 2-methylfuran (2-MF) and cyclohexanone. After optimizing the reaction conditions, the conversion of 2-MF reached 99% and the yield of 5,5'-(cyclohexane-1,1-diyl)bis(2-methylfuran) acquired 98%. The activity and catalytic efficiency were higher than those of Amberlyst 15 and Amberlyst 36 resins, which could be rationalized by high acid strength. At the same time, the catalysts were characterized by acid-base titration and FTIR. Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of HAA products of 2-methylfuran and cyclopentanone were processed on the Ni/SiO2 catalyst prepared by wet impregnation method to further convert into aviation kerosene, and the yield reached 93%.

Structure and Reactivity of [Ru-Al] and [Ru-Sn] Heterobimetallic PPh3-Based Complexes.

Project description:Treatment of [Ru(PPh3)(C6H4PPh2)2H][Li(THF)2] with AlMe2Cl and SnMe3Cl leads to elimination of LiCl and CH4 and formation of the heterobimetallic complexes [Ru(C6H4PPh2)2{PPh2C6H4AlMe(THF)}H] 5 and [Ru(PPh3)(C6H4PPh2)(PPh2C6H4SnMe2)] 6, respectively. The pathways to 5 and 6 have been probed by variable temperature NMR studies, together with input from DFT calculations. Complete reaction of H2 occurs with 5 at 60 °C and with 6 at room temperature to yield the spectroscopically characterized trihydride complexes [Ru(PPh2)2{PPh2C6H4AlMe}H3] 7 and [Ru(PPh2)2{PPh2C6H4SnMe2}H3] 8. In the presence of CO, 6 forms the acylated phosphine complex, [Ru(CO)2(C(O)C6H4PPh2)(PPh2C6H4SnMe2)] 9, through a series of intermediates that were identified by NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with 13CO labeling. Complex 6 undergoes addition and substitution reactions with the N-heterocyclic carbene 1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-ylidene (IMe4) to give [Ru(IMe4)2(PPh2C6H4)(PPh2C6H4SnMe2)] 10, which converted via rare N-Me group C-H activation to [Ru(IMe4)(PPh3)(IMe4)'(PPh2C6H4SnMe2)] 11 upon heating at 60 °C and to a mixture of [Ru(IMe4)2(IMe4)'(PPh2C6H4SnMe2)] 12 and [Ru(PPh3)(PPh2C6H4)(IMe4-SnMe2)'] 13 at 120 °C.

Continuous selective deoxygenation of palm oil for renewable diesel production over Ni catalysts supported on Al2O3 and La2O3-Al2O3.

Project description:The present study provides, for the first time in the literature, a comparative assessment of the catalytic performance of Ni catalysts supported on γ-Al2O3 and γ-Al2O3 modified with La2O3, in a continuous flow trickle bed reactor, for the selective deoxygenation of palm oil. The catalysts were prepared via the wet impregnation method and were characterized, after calcination and/or reduction, by N2 adsorption/desorption, XRD, NH3-TPD, CO2-TPD, H2-TPR, H2-TPD, XPS and TEM, and after the time-on-stream tests, by TGA, TPO, Raman and TEM. Catalytic experiments were performed between 300-400 °C, at a constant pressure (30 bar) and different LHSV (1.2-3.6 h-1). The results show that the incorporation of La2O3 in the Al2O3 support increased the Ni surface atomic concentration (XPS), affected the nature and abundance of surface basicity (CO2-TPD), and despite leading to a drop in surface acidity (NH3-TPD), the Ni/LaAl catalyst presented a larger population of medium-strength acid sites. These characteristics helped promote the SDO process and prevented extended cracking and the formation of coke. Thus, higher triglyceride conversions and n-C15 to n-C18 hydrocarbon yields were achieved with the Ni/LaAl at lower reaction temperatures. Moreover, the Ni/LaAl catalyst was considerably more stable during 20 h of time-on-stream. Examination of the spent catalysts revealed that both carbon deposition and degree of graphitization of the surface coke, as well as, the extent of sintering were lower on the Ni/LaAl catalyst, explaining its excellent performance during time-on-stream.
