Both NH3 temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) and H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) results showed that Re2O7/SiO2-Al2O3 exhibited stronger acidity and weaker metal-support interaction than Re2O7/γ-Al2O3. At 35 60℃, isomerization free metathesis was observed only over Re2O7/γ-Al2O3, suggesting that the formation of metal-carbene metathesis active sites required only weak acidity. Our results suggest that on the Re2O7/SiO2-Al2O3, hydrido-rhenium species ([Re]-H) were formed in addition to the metathesis active sites, resulting in the isomerization of the initial 1-butene product into 2-butenes. A subsequent secondary metathesis reaction between these 2-butenes and the excess ethylene could explain the enhanced yields of propylene observed. The results demonstrate the potential for high yield of propylene from alternative feedstocks.展开更多

Complete conversion of 2-pentene and propylene yield as high as 88 wt% were obtained under mild reaction conditions at 35 ℃ and atmospheric pressure. Unlike the conventional metathesis of ethylene and 2-butenes in which isomerization is a competing side reaction, the isomerization of 1-butene product from the unconventional metathesis of ethylene and 2-pentene to 2-butenes can further react with excess ethylene in the feed, resulting in additional increase in propylene yield. The secondary metathesis reaction was found to be favored under ethylene/2-pentene (E/2P) molar ratio ≥3 and gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) ≤ 1000 h-1 at the reaction temperature of 35 ℃. No catalyst deactivation was observed during the 455 min time-on-stream under the selected reaction conditions.展开更多

Developing an efficient approach to environment-friendly fluorosurfactants is essential. A fluorocarbon branched chain strategy was adopted to develop/PFOS substitutes. A series of intermediates of novel branched fluorinated surfactants with CF_3 CF_2CF_2C(CF3)_2 group were synthesized from perfluoro-2-methyl-2-pentene. All the steps were mild, easy-handled and cheap. It is expected to be a very significant direction for the development of non-bioaccumulable alternatives of PFOA or PFOS.展开更多
