Alkyl-tetralin base oils synthesized from coal-based chemicals and evaluation of their lubricating properties

Naphthenic base oil is an important lubricating base oil and very scarce in the global petroleum resources.Herein,a series of alkylated tetralin fluids similar to naphthenic base oils were produced by the alkylation of tetralin and a-olefins(n-hexene,n-octene,n-decene)with ionic liquid Et_3NHCl/AlCl_(3)as the catalyst,where the applied raw materials are totally derived from the coal chemical industry.The product composition could be controlled by adjusting the feeding ratio of tetralin and olefin.The synthetic fluids were evaluated as lubricating base oils to reveal the structure-property correlations.Their principal physicochemical and tribological properties depend on the chain-length of a-olefins and the number of alkyl groups onto the aromatic rings.Bis-(octyl-or decyl-)alkyl tetralin exhibited good properties in terms of viscosity,thermo-oxidation stability and pour point,as well as friction-reducing and anti-wear performance,showing great potential for producing naphthenic base synthetic oils from coal-based chemicals.

Research Progress in Catalytic Cracking Reaction of Tetralin and Decalin

The integrated catalytic hydrogenation and catalytic cracking process has been gradually adopted by refineries to satisfy the requirements for manufacture of light and clean petroleum products. To explore the reaction laws of hydrogenated aromatics in hydrotreated oil, the catalytic cracking reaction laws of hydrogenated aromatics have been reviewed by taking tetralin and decalin as examples of different degrees of hydrogenated aromatics. Moreover, the reaction mechanism of tetralin and decalin has been analyzed emphatically. The effects of zeolite pore structure, acid properties and process parameters on reaction laws have been analyzed carefully. It is considered that the catalytic cracking performance of hydrogenated aromatics with different hydrogen saturation degrees is quite different. It is necessary to control the hydrogenation depth, optimize the hydrocarbon composition of catalytic cracking feed materials for maximizing the yield of target products.

8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin intervenes with neural cell apoptosis following diffuse axonal injury

Previous studies have reported a neuroprotective effect of 8-hydroxy-2-（di-n-propylamino）tetralin （8-OH-DPAT） against traumatic brain injury. In accordance with the Marmarou method, rat models of diffuse axonal injury were established. 8-OH-DPAT was intraperitoneally injected into model rats. 8-OH-DPAT treated rats maintained at constant temperature served as normal temperature controls TUNEL results revealed that neural cell swelling, brain tissue necrosis and cell apoptosis occurred around the injured tissue. Moreover, the number of Bax-, Bcl-2- and caspase-3-positive cells increased at 6 hours after diffuse axonal injury, and peaked at 24 hours. However, brain injury was attenuated, the number of apoptotic cells reduced, Bax and caspase-3 expression decreased, and Bcl-2 expression increased at 6, 12, 24, 72 and 168 hours after diffuse axonal injury in normal temperature control and in 8-OH-DPAT-intervention rats. The difference was most significant at 24 hours. All indices in 8-OH-DPAT-intervention rats were better than those in the constant temperature group. These results suggest that 8-OH-DPAT inhibits Bax and caspase-3 expression, increases Bcl-2 expression, and reduces neural cell apoptosis, resulting in neuroprotection against diffuse axonal injury. This effect is associated with a decrease in brain temperature.

Preparation of a highly efficient Pt/USY catalyst for hydrogenation and selective ring-opening reaction of tetralin

Ultrastable Y zeolite（USY）-supported Pt catalyst was prepared by gas-bubbling-assisted membrane reduction. The influence of reaction conditions and the metal and acid sites of catalysts on the catalytic performance of catalyst in hydrogenation and selective ring opening of tetralin, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene（THN）, was studied. It was found that the optimal reaction conditions were at a temperature of 280 °C, hydrogen pressure of 4 MPa, liquid hourly space velocity of 2 h^-1 and H2/THN ratio of 750. Under these optimal conditions, a high conversion of almost 100% was achieved on the 0.3 Pt/USY catalyst. XRD patterns and TEM images revealed that Pt particles were highly dispersed on the USY, favorable to the hydrogenation reaction of tetralin. Ammonia temperature-programmed desorption and Py-IR results indicated that the introduction of Pt can reduce the acid sites of USY, particularly the strong acid sites of USY. Thus, the hydrocracking reaction can be suppressed.

Selective catalytic hydrogenation of naphthalene to tetralin over a NiMo/Al2O3 catalyst

The selective catalytic hydrogenation of naphthalene to high-value tetralin was systematically investigated.A series of Al2O3 catalysts containing different active metals(Co,Mo,Ni,W)were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation.The effects of different active metals forms(oxidation,reduction,sulfuration)and reaction conditions on naphthalene hydrogenation were investigated and the catalysts were characterized by XRD,XPS,BET,NH3-TPD and SEM.Especially,Ni-Mo/Al2O3 was first used in this reactive system.The results show that the oxidative4%Ni O-20%MoO3/Al2O3 is the best catalyst for the preparation of tetralin.The conversion of naphthalene and the selectivity of tetralin can reach 95.62%and 99.75%respectively at 200℃,8 h and 6 MPa.Compared with reduced and sulfureted 4%Ni O-20%MoO3/Al2O3 catalysts,oxidative 4%Ni O-20%MoO3/Al2O3 has a well dispersed and uniform monolayer of the active metals,larger pore volume and size,and larger total acidity.NiO-MoO3/Al2O3 has a synergistic effect between NiO activity and MoO3 selectivity.

Tetralin Hydrocracking Reaction Network to Single-Ring Aromatics on Bifunctional Catalysts

Conversion of LCO(light cycle oil)to BTX(benzene,toluene,and xylene)is an economically valuable method for refineries.However,this approach still faces difficulties as the main reactions are not clearly understood.Here we study the detailed hydrocracking pathway of typical reactants,1-methylnaphthalene and tetralin,through molecular simulations and experiments to improve our understanding of the conversion process of LCO to BTX.Molecular simulations demonstrate that the rate-determining step is the isomerization pathway of six-membered ring to five-membered ring in tetralin as its activation energy(ΔEa)is the highest among all the reactions and the order ofΔEa of reactions is isomerization>ring-opening≈side-chain cleavage.The results of experiments show that with the increase in reaction depth,i.e.,through a high temperature(350-370℃)and low LHSV(4.5-6.0 h^(−1)),isomerization,ring-opening,and side-chain cleavage reactions occurred,thus improving the selectivity and yield of alkyl aromatics.

Diffusion and Adsorption of Tetralin Hydrocracking Reaction on Different Zeolites by Molecular Simulation

Three different zeolite catalysts with different pore sizes(MFI-type,BEA-type,and FAU-type zeolites)have been prepared.The influence of different zeolite catalysts on reactivity and product shape selectivity of tetralin is investigated.Clear differences are observed in the reactivity of tetralin and distribution of products achieved by different catalysts.The diffusion and adsorption behavior of the reactant tetralin and its intermediates,n-butylbenzene and 1-methylindane under the reaction conditions are simulated using molecular simulation methods.Upon combining simulation results and experimental observations,it is shown that the difference in diffusion coefficient and competitive adsorption capacity can explain the reactivity of tetralin and the selectivity of products.The steric hindrance of the MFI-type zeolite mainly limits the key step of ring opening of tetralin,leading to lower selectivity of ring-opening products.n-Butylbenzene molecules can diffuse sufficiently fast in the large pores of FAU-type zeolite and the weak adsorption capacity of n-butylbenzene leads to its insufficient cracking.In addition,it also explains the reason that the BEA-type zeolite has the best BTX selectivity,because it can satisfy both good ring-opening activity and sufficient butylbenzene cracking depth.

Optimizing support acidity of NiMo catalysts for increasing the yield of benzene, toluene and xylene in tetralin hydrocracking

To enhance the yields of benzene,toluene,and xylene in tetralin hydrocracking,the effect of the support acid properties of NiMo catalysts on hydrocracking performance of tetralin were investigated in this study.NaY zeolites were modified by hydrothermal treatment to form USY zeolites at different temperatures and adjust the type and amount of acid.In addition,H-Beta was loaded into the USY to further adjust the acidic properties of the catalysts.The result shows that when the total B acid content of the catalyst is maintained between 150 and 200μmol·g^(-1),the total acid amount is maintained between 1.7 and 1.9 mmol·g^(-1),and the L/B(L and B acids)ratio is maintained between 1.5 and 2,the catalysts have favorable performances on tetralin hydrocracking.Under this condition,the catalysts have a yield of benzene,toluene,and xylene higher than 30 wt%and a selectivity for benzene,toluene,and xylene higher than 35%.The tetralin conversion is greater than 85 wt%.The AB6 catalyst obtains the best hydrocracking effect with the conversion of tetralin reaching 90.24 wt%,the yields of benzene,toluene,and xylene reaching 33.58 wt%,and the selectivity of benzene,toluene,and xylene reaching 37.21%,respectively.

Environmentally Friendly Room Temperature Synthesis of 1-Tetralone over Layered Double Hydroxide-Hosted Sulphonato-Salen-Nickel(II) Complex

1-Tetralone, a useful synthetic intermediate in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and dyes, can be prepared by liquid phase catalytic oxidation of tetralin. Selective oxidation of tetralin to 1-tetralone is still a big challenge with low-temperature processes using environmentally friendly routes even after decades of research. Herein, we demonstrate room-temperature oxidation of tetralin to 1-tetralone over layered double hydroxide-hosted sulphonato-salen-nickel(II) complex, LDH-[Ni-salen]. The layered double hydroxide-hosted sulphonato-salen-nickel(II) compound was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), UV-Visible diffuse reflectance spectra, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and elemental analysis. The theoretical calculations of free sulphonato-salen-nickel(II) complex using Density Functional Theory/CAM-B3LYP at the 6-311++ G(d,p) level of theory were also used to determine the orientation of the Ni-salen compound within the layered structure. The immobilized compound, LDH-[Ni-salen] was found to be an effective reusable catalyst for the oxidation of tetralin to 1-tetralone using a combination of trimethylacetaldehyde and molecular oxygen (14.5 psi) and at 25°C. At 45.5% conversion, tetralin was converted to 1-tetralone with 77.2% selectivity at room temperature and atmospheric pressure after 24 h. The catalyst recycles test and hot filtration experiment showed that oxidation proceeded through Ni(II) sites in LDH-[Ni-salen]. The catalysts were reused several times without losing their catalytic activity and selectivity. The present results may provide a convenient strategy for the preparation of 1-tetralone using layered double hydroxide-based heterogeneous catalyst at ambient temperature for industrial application in near future.

以四氢萘为模型化合物原料,采用加氢精制剂和裂化剂分级配比的模式,在高压微反固定床装置上进行加氢裂化反应。采用XRD、N_(2)吸附-脱附、TEM和NH_(3)-TPD方法对加氢精制剂和裂化剂进行了表征,并基于4因素6水平的正交实验,研究了采用不同酸量裂化剂时反应条件对加氢裂化产物收率的影响。实验结果表明,生产汽油的最佳反应条件是No.1裂化剂,反应温度360℃、反应压力8 MPa、氢油体积比600、质量空速3.5 h^(-1),最高汽油收率为11.13%;加氢反应的最佳反应条件是No.1裂化剂、反应温度405℃、反应压力7 MPa、氢油体积比400、质量空速2.0 h^(-1),最高加氢产物收率为32.21%;异构反应的最佳反应条件是No.1裂化剂、反应温度390℃、反应压力10 MPa、氢油体积比400、质量空速3.5 h^(-1),最高异构产物收率为35.03%;脱氢反应的最佳反应条件是No.2裂化剂、反应温度330℃、反应压力5 MPa、氢油体积比800、质量空速2.5 h^(-1),最低脱氢产物收率为0.62%。

ZnW/β中ZnO含量对其催化四氢萘加氢裂化反应性能的影响

Zn的引入不仅可以调控β分子筛的酸性质,而且还会影响催化剂的加氢活性。为了研究Zn的引入对催化剂加氢裂化反应性能的影响,利用浸渍法合成了一系列不同ZnO含量的ZnW/β加氢裂化催化剂,并对其物理化学性能进行了分析表征。研究了ZnO含量对其催化四氢萘加氢裂化制备BTX(苯/甲苯/二甲苯)催化性能的影响。结果表明,最高BTX收率随着ZnO含量的增加先升高(质量分数<1%时)后降低(质量分数>1%时),这是由于随着ZnO含量的增加,ZnW/β催化剂的强酸量和总酸量明显减小,抑制了四氢萘的过度裂化。而当ZnO的负载量达到1%(质量分数)后,ZnO与WO_(3)反应会生成非活性组分ZnWO4晶体,非活性组分ZnWO4晶体的生成量随着ZnO的含量增大而增大,降低了催化剂中加氢活性组分WO_(3)的含量,导致ZnW/β催化剂的加氢中心与酸中心匹配不佳。ZnO负载量为1%的ZnW/β催化剂在反应空时为0.36 h时达到最高的BTX收率(41.57%,质量分数),说明该催化剂的酸量适中且加氢中心与酸中心匹配最佳。因此,催化剂金属中心与酸中心合适的匹配及适中的酸强度是提高BTX收率的关键。
