Study on Direct Synthesis of Diphenyl Carbonate with Heterogeneous Catalytic Reaction (V) Screening Catalysts and Optimizing Synthesis Conditions

Pd/LaxPbyMnOz, Pd/C, Pd/molecular sieve and Pd-heteropoly acid catalysts for direct synthesis of diphenyl carbonate (DPC) by heterogeneous catalytic reaction were compared and the results of DPC synthesis indicated that the catalyst Pd/LaxPbyMnOz had higher activity. The Pd/LaxPbyMnOz catalyst and the support was characterized by XRD, SEM and TEM, the main phase was Lao.szPbo.asMnOa and the average diameter could be about 25.4nm. The optimuna conditions for synthesis of DPC with Pd/LasPbyMnOz were determined by orthogonal experiments and the experimental results showed that reaction temperature was the first factor of effect on the selectivity and yield of DPC, and the concentration of O2 in gas phase also had significant effect on selectivity of DPC. The optimum reaction conditions were catalyst/phenol mass ratio l to 50, pressure 4.5MPa, volume concentration of O2 25%, reaction temperature 60℃ and reaction time 4 h. The maximum yield and average selectivity could reach 13% and 97% respectively in the batch operation.

Synthesis of Diphenyl Carbonate over the Magnetic Catalysts Pd/La_(1-x)Pb_xMnO_3 (x=0.2-0.7)

The magnetic perovskite-supported palladium catalysts Pd/Lal_xPbxMnO3 （x = 0.2-0.7） were prepared and used for the oxidative carbonylation of phenol to diphenyl carbonate. The synthesized catalysts were characterized by the X-ray diffraction （XRD）, surface area measurement BET, vibration sample magnetometer （VSM） and tem- perature-programmed reduction （TPR）. The experimental results demonstrated that the magnetic Pd/La1-xPbxMnO3 （x = 0.4-0.5） obtain relative better catalytic activity. It can be explained by higher concentration of oxygen vacan- cies, larger amount and better mobility of lattice oxygen of their support. Furthermore, these samples possess suffi- cient saturated magnetization. Thus, Pd/La1-xPbxMnO3 （x = 0.4-0.5） may be suitable for operation in the magneti- cally stabilized bed reactor.

Recent advances in fixation of CO_(2) into organic carbamates through multicomponent reaction strategies

Carbon dioxide(CO_(2)) is the main greenhouse gas and also an ideal C1 feedstock in organic synthesis because it is abundant,nontoxic,nonflammable,and renewable.The synthesis of organic carbamates using CO_(2) as a phosgene alternative has attracted extensive attention because of the importance of carbamates in organic synthesis and in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries.In recent decades,many multicomponent reaction strategies have been designed for constructing different types of organic carbamate molecules.Most of these methods rely on the in situ generation of carbamate anions from CO_(2) and amines,followed by reactions with other coupling partners.Synthetic strategies for acyclic carbamates include nucleophile‐electrophile coupling,nucleo‐phile‐nucleophile oxidative coupling,difunctionalization of unsaturated hydrocarbons,and C–H bond functionalization.Strategies for the synthesizing cyclic carbamates include carboxylative cyclization of in situ‐generated unsaturated amines and difunctionalization of unsaturated amines with CO_(2) and other electrophilic reagents.This review summarizes the recent advances in the synthesis of organic carbamates from CO_(2) using different multicomponent reaction strategies.Future perspectives and challenges in the incorporation of CO_(2) into carbamates are also presented.

Optimization and control of a reactive distillation process for the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate

Dimethyl carbonate is an environmentally benign and biodegradable chemical.Based on integration of reactive distillation and pressure-swing distillation technologies,a novel process for synthesis of dimethyl carbonate through transesterification with propylene carbonate and methanol has been developed by Huang et al.In this work,the optimization of this process was performed by minimizing the total TAC.The results show that the optimal design flowsheet can save energy consumption by 18.6% with the propylene carbonate conversion of 99.9%.Then,an effective plant-wide control structure for the process was developed.Dynamic simulation results demonstrate that the temperature/flow rate cascade control plus with simple temperature control can keep not only product purity but also the conversion of the reactant at their desired values in the face of the disturbance in reactant feed flow rate and feed composition.

Simultaneous Synthesis of Dimethyl Carbonate and Poly（ethylene terephthalate） Using Alkali Metals as Catalysts

Dimethyl carbonate （DMC） and poly（ethylene terephthalate） was simultaneously synthesized by the transesterification of ethylene carbonate （EC） with dimethyl terephthalate （DMT） in this paper. This reaction is an excellent green chemical process without poisonous substance. Various alkali metals were used as the catalysts. The results showed alkali metals had catalytic activity in a certain extent. The effect of reaction condition was also studied. When the reaction was carded out under the following conditions： the reaction temperature 250℃, molar ratio of EC to DMT 3 ： 1, reaction time 3h, and catalyst amount 0.004 （molar ratio to DMT）, the yield of DMC was 68.9%.

Direct Synthesis of Dimethyl Carbonate from CO_2 and CH_3OH Using 0.4nm Molecular Sieve Supported Cu-Ni Bimetal Catalyst

The 0.4 nm molecular sieve supported Cu-Ni bimetal catalysts for direct synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from CO 2 and CH 3 OH were prepared and investigated. The synthesized catalysts were fully characterized by BET, XRD (X-ray diffraction), TPR (temperature programmed reduction), IR (infra-red adsorption), NH 3-TPD (temperature programmed desorption) and CO 2-TPD (temperature programmed desorption) techniques. The results showed that the surface area of catalysts decreased with increasing metal content, and the metals as well as Cu-Ni alloy co-existed on the reduced catalyst surface. There existed interaction between metal and carrier, and moreover, metal particles affected obviously the acidity and basicity of carrier. The large amount of basic sites facilitated the activation of methanol to methoxyl species and their subsequent reaction with activated carbon dioxide. The catalysts were evaluated in a continuous tubular fixed-bed micro-gaseous reactor and the catalyst with bimetal loading of 20% (by mass) had best catalytic activities. Under the conditions of 393 K, 1.1 MPa, 5 h and gas space velocity of 510 h 1 , the selectivity and yield of DMC were higher than 86.0 % and 5.0 %, respectively.

Zn–Ca–Al mixed oxide as efficient catalyst for synthesis of propylene carbonate from urea and 1,2-propylene glycol

A series of Zn–Ca–Al oxides with different CaO and ZnO contents have been prepared and evaluated in the synthesis of propylene carbonate(PC) from 1,2-propylene glycol(PG) and urea in a batch reactor. The effect of catalyst composition, basicity and reaction process parameters such as temperature, catalyst dose, molar ratio of PG to urea, purge gas flow and reaction time has been studied to find suitable reaction conditions for the PC synthesis. The PC selectivity and yield under the desired conditions could reach 98.4% and 90.8%, respectively. The best performing catalyst also exhibited a good reusability without appreciable loss in the PC selectivity and yield after five consecutive reaction runs. In addition, a stepwise reaction pathway involving a 2-hydroxypropyl carbamate intermediate was proposed for the urea alcoholysis to PC in the presence of Zn–Ca–Al catalysts, according to the time dependences of reaction intermediates and products.

Synthesis of dimethyl adipate from cyclopentanone and dimethyl carbonate over solid base catalysts

A facile route for the synthesis of dimethyl adipate （DAP） from cyclopentanone and dimethyl carbonate （DMC） in the pres- ence of solid base catalysts has been developed. It was found that the intermediate carbomethoxycyclopentanone （CMCP） was produced from cyclopentanone with DMC in the first step, and then CMCP was further converted to DAP by reacting with a methoxide group. The role of the basic catalysts can be mainly ascribed to the activation of cyclopentanone via the abstraction of a proton in the a-position by base sites, and solid bases with moderate strength, such as MgO, favor the formation of DAP.

An efficient catalytic system for the synthesis of glycerol carbonate by oxidative carbonylation of glycerol

Glycerol carbonate was synthesized by the oxidative carbonylation of glycerol catalyzed by the commercial Pd/C with the aid of NaI. High conversion of glycerol （82.2%）, selectivity to glycerol carbonate （〉99%）, and TOF （900 h-1） were obtained under the conditions of 5 MPa （Pco：Po2 = 2：1）, 140 C, 2 h. The highly active palladium species were generated in situ by dissolution from the carbon support and stabilized by re-deposition onto the support surface after the reaction was finished. Palladium dissolution and re-deposition were crucial and inherent parts of the catalytic cycle, which involved heterogeneous reactions. This Pd/C catalyst could be recycled and efficiently reused for four times with a gradual decrease in activity. Moreover, the in- fluences of various parameters, e.g., types of catalysts, solvents, additives, reaction temperature, pressure, and time on the conversion of glycerol were investigated. A reaction mechanism was proposed for oxidative carbonylation of glycerol to glyc- erol carbonate.

Ordered mesoporous BaCO3/C composites were synthesized by a multi-component co-assembly method combined with a carbonization process using phenolic resol as carbon source, barium nitrate as barium precursor, and triblock copolymer Pluronic F127 as template. The synthesized materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, N2 physical adsorption, thermogravimetric analysis, and temperature-programmed desorption of CO〉 When BaCO3 contents were increased from 9.1 wt% to 44.7 wt%, pore size increased from 3.1 to 4.3 nm and the BET （Brunauer-Emmett-Teller） surface area initially increased to a maximum value of 390 m2 g^-1 （at a BaCO3 content of 18.5 wt%） before subsequently decreasing. BaCO3 was well dispersed in the amorphous carbon framework, and no phase separation was observed. The mesoporous BaCO3/C composites exhibited high catalytic activities toward the transesterification of glycerol and dimethyl carbonate into glycerol carbonate. A glycerol conversion of 97.8% and a glycerol carbonate selectivity of 98.5% were obtained under the optimized reaction conditions.

Synthesis of polycarbonate diol catalyzed by metal-organic framework Zn_4O[CO_2-C_6H_4-CO_2]_3

The metal-organic framework Zn4O[1,4-benzenedicarboxylate]3(Zn4O[CO2-C6H4-CO2]3,commonly known as MOF-5,was prepared by the ultrasonic irradiation method.The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy.It was then used as the catalyst for the preparation of polycarbonate diol(PCDL) via the transesterification between diphenyl carbonate(DPC) and 1,6-hexandiol(1,6-HD).Its catalytic activity in the transesterification process is evaluated by the yield of phenol,and its catalytic activity in the polycondensation process is determined by the number-average molecular weight(Mn) and the hydroxyl value.Compared to the triethylenediamine(C6H12N2),Mg-Al layered double hydroxide(Mg-Al LDH),sodium ethoxide(C2H5ONa) and sodium methoxide(CH3ONa),MOF-5 exhibits highest catalytic activity for the preparation of PCDL.Under reaction conditions(n(1,6-HD)/n(DPC) = 1.2,w(catalyst) = 0.03%,198 ℃),the yield of phenol is up to 90.1% and the PCDL shows highest Mn and lowest hydroxyl value.
