Synthesis of Methyl Acetate by Dimethyl Ether Carbonylation over Cu/HMOR： Effect of Catalyst Preparation Method

Dimethyl ether carbonylation to methyl acetate was comparatively investigated over mor- denite supported copper （Cu/HMOR） catalysts prepared by different methods including evaporation, urea hydrolysis, incipient wetness impregnation and ion-exchange. The results showed that Cu/HMOR prepared via iron-exchange method exhibited the highest catalytic activity due to the synergistic effect of active-site metal and acidic molecular sieve support. Conversion of 95.3% and methyl acetate selectivity of 94.9% were achieved under conditions of 210℃, 1.5 MPa, and GSHV of 4883 h-1. The catalysts were characterized by nitrogen absorption, X-ray diffraction, NH3 temperature program desorption, and CO temperature program desorption techniques. It was found that Cu/HMOR prepared by ion-exchange method possessed high surface area, moderate strong acid centers, and CO adsorption centers, which improved catalytic performance for the reaction of CO insertion to dimethyl ether.

Catalytic Esterification of Methyl Alcohol with Acetic Acid

Esterification of methyl alcohol with acetic acid catalysed by Amberlyst-15 (cation-exchange resin) was carried out in a batch reactor in the temperature ranging between 318-338 K, at atmospheric pressure. The reaction rate increased with increase in catalyst concentration and reaction temperature, but decreased with an increase in water concentration. Stirrer speed had virtually no effect on the rate under the experimental conditions. The rate data were correlated with a second-order kinetic model based on homogeneous reaction. The apparent activation energy was found to be 22.9kJ mol-1 for the formation of methyl acetate. The methyl acetate production was carried out as batch and continuous in a packed bed reactive distillation column with high purity methyl acetate produced.

In_2O_3-modified Cu/SiO_2 as an active and stable catalyst for the hydrogenation of methyl acetate to ethanol

A series of indium oxide‐modified Cu/SiO2catalysts were synthesized and used to produce ethanol via methyl acetate hydrogenation.In‐Cu/SiO2catalyst containing1.0wt%In2O3exhibited the best catalytic activity and stability.The physicochemical properties of the synthesized catalysts were investigated using several characterization methods and the results showed that introducing suitable indium to Cu/SiO2increased the copper dispersion,diminished the copper crystallite size,and enriched the surface Cu+concentration.Furthermore,the Cu/SiO2catalyst gradually deactivated during the stability test,which was mainly attributed to copper sintering and the valence change in surface copper species.In contrast,indium addition can inhibit the thermal transmigration and accumulation of copper nanoparticles to stabilize the catalyst.?2018,Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics,Chinese Academy of Sciences.Published by Elsevier B.V.All rights reserved.

Enhanced catalytic performance of Cu-and/or Mn-loaded Fe-Sep catalysts for the oxidation of CO and ethyl acetate

The Fe-modi fied sepiolite-supported Mn–Cu mixed oxide(Cux Mny/Fe-Sep) catalysts were prepared using the co-precipitation method.These materials were characterized by means of the XRD,N_2 adsorption–desorption,XPS,H_2-TPR,and O_2-TPD techniques,and their catalytic activities for CO and ethyl acetate oxidation were evaluated.The results show that catalytic activities of the Cux Mny/Fe-Sep samples were higher than those of the Cu1/Fe-Sep and Mn2/Fe-Sep samples,and the Mn/Cu molar ratio had a distinct in fluence on catalytic activity of the sample.Among the Cux Mny/Fe-Sep and Cu1Mn2/Sep samples,Cu1Mn2/Fe-Sep performed the best for CO and ethyl acetate oxidation,showing the highest reaction rate and the lowest T50 and T90 of 4.4×10^(-6) mmol·g-1·s-1,110,and 140 °C for CO oxidation,and 1.9×10^(-6) mmol·g-1·s-1,170,and210 °C for ethyl acetate oxidation,respectively.Moreover,the Cu1Mn2/Fe-Sep sample possessed the best lowtemperature reducibility and the lowest temperature of oxygen desorption as well as the highest surface Mn^(4+)/Mn^(3+) and Cu^(2+)/CuO atomic ratios.It is concluded that factors,such as the strong interaction between the Cu or Mn and the Fe-Sep support,good low-temperature reducibility,and good mobility of chemisorbed oxygen species,might account for the excellent catalytic activity of Cu1Mn2/Fe-Sep.

An efficient and reusable bimetallic Ni_3Fe NPs@C catalyst for selective hydrogenation of biomass-derived levulinic acid toγ-valerolactone

Bimetallic nanostructures have attracted great interest as efficient catalyst to enhance activity,selectivity and stability in catalytical conversion.Herein,we report a facile one‐pot carbothermal route to in‐situ controllable synthesize heterogeneous bimetallic Ni3Fe NPs@C nanocatalyst.The X‐ray diffraction,transmission electron microscopy,X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy and N2 adsorption‐description results reveal that the Ni3Fe alloy nanoparticles are evenly embedded in carbon matrix.The as‐prepared Ni3Fe NPs@C catalyst shows excellent selective hydrogenation catalytic performance toward the conversion of levulinic acid(LA)toγ‐valerolactone(GVL)via both direct hydrogenation(DH)and transfer hydrogenation(TH).In DH of LA,the bimetallic catalyst achieved a 93.8%LA conversion efficiency with a 95.5%GVL selectivity and 38.2 mmol g–1 h–1 GVL productivity(under 130°C,2MPa H2 within 2 h),which are 6 and 40 times in comparison with monometallic Ni NPs@C and Fe NPs@C catalysts,respectively.In addition,the identical catalyst displayed a full conversion of LA with almost 100%GVL selectivity and 167.1 mmol g–1 h–1 GVL productivity at 180°C within 0.5 h in TH of LA.Under optimal reaction conditions,the DH and TH catalytic performance of 500‐Ni3Fe NPs@C(3:1)catalyst for converting LA to GVL is comparable to the state‐of‐the‐art noble‐based catalysts.The demonstrated capability of bimetallic catalyst design approach to introduce dual‐catalytic functionality for DH and TH reactions could be adoptable for other catalysis processes.

Catalytic conversion of ethyl lactate to 1,2-propanediol over CuO

An efficient conversion of biomass-derived ethyl lactate to 1,2-propanediol(1,2-PDO) over CuO was investigated.Among the catalysts we tested, CuO, Cu2 O and Co showed excellent catalytic activity for the conversion of ethyl lactate to 1,2-PDO in water, and CuO was more active and gave the best result. The 1,2-PDO yield of 93.6% was achieved when Zn acted as a reductant. The results indicated that in situ formed hydrogen by the oxidation of Zn in water is more effective than gaseous hydrogen, which failed to produce the 1,2-PDO from ethyl lactate.From a practical point of view, the present method may provide a useful route for the production of 1,2-PDO from ethyl lactate.

Kinetics of esterification of methanol and acetic acid with mineral homogeneous acid catalyst

In this work, esterification of acetic acid and methanol to synthesize methyl acetate in a batch stirred reactor is studied in the temperature range of 305.15–333.15 K. Sulfuric acid is used as the homogeneous catalyst with concentrations ranging from 0.0633 mol·L-1to 0.3268 mol·L-1. The feed molar ratio of acetic acid to methanol is varied from 1:1 to 1:4. The influences of temperature, catalyst concentration and reactant concentration on the reaction rate are investigated. A second order kinetic rate equation is used to correlate the experimental data. The forward and backward reaction rate constants and activation energies are determined from the Arrhenius plot.The developed kinetic model is compared with the models in literature. The developed kinetic equation is useful for the simulation of reactive distillation column for the synthesis of methyl acetate.

Synthesis of a Novel Solid Acid with both Sulfonic and Carbonyl Acid Groups and Its Catalytic Activities in Acetalization

The novel solid acid with both sulfonic and carbonyl acid groups has been synthesized from 3-((2-sulfoethoxy) carbonyl)acrylic acid and tetraethyl orthosilicate(TEOS). The catalytic activities were investigated through the acetalization. The results showed that the novel solid acid was very efficient for the reactions with the high yields. The high acidity, high stability and reusability were the key feature of the novel solid acid. Moreover, the sulfonic and carbonyl acid groups could cooperate during the catalytic process, which improved its catalytic activities. The catalyst shows recyclability, and hold great potential for replacement of homogeneous catalysts.

Synthesis of ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate by orthogonal design

Using Schiff base as a phase transfer catalyst, ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate was synthesized by reacting ethyl chloroformate with sodium thiocyanate. In order to get the best synthetic technology, an orthogonal test （L9（34）） was applied. The results show that reaction temperature, reaction time, content of catalyst and molar ratio of sodium thiocyanate to ethyl chloroformate are the main factors influencing the yield. The four factors chosen for the present investigation are based on the results of a single-factor test. The optimum synthetic technology is determined as follows： reaction temperature 35 ℃, reaction time 3 h, the content of catalyst （molar fraction based on ethyl chloroformate） 1.5% and molar ratio of sodium thiocyanate to ethyl chloroformate 1.1. Under the optimized synthetic technology, the experimental yield reaches 96.8%.

Generating strongly basic sites on magnetic nano-stirring bars:Multifunctional integrated catalysts for transesterification reaction

Mass transfer and catalyst recovery are two crucial issues in solid base catalysis,while the cumbersome operation steps and the associated time and energy penalties are still inevitable for conventional catalysts.Achieving the technical upgrades through catalyst design is desirable but challenging because of the difficulty in satisfying diverse demands of different steps.In this work,a magnetically responsive solid base catalyst with the rod-like nanostructure was developed.The rod-like solid base catalysts are composed of Fe_(3)O_(4) cores,silica shells and calcium oxide active sites.The functions of magnetic recovery and stirring were integrated into the catalyst,which applies in both the general catalytic processes and microchannel reactors given their nanoscales.When applied to the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate by onestep transesterification of methanol and ethylene carbonate,an apparent enhancement on turnover frequency value(33.1 h^(−1))was observed for nano-stirring compared with that tested without stirring(12.1 h^(−1))within 30 min.The present catalysts may open up new avenues in the development of advanced solid base catalysts.
