, p. 806 - 808 (2015)
Methyl methoxyacetate (MMAc), a precursor to ethylene glycol (EG), was synthesized successfully via the liquid-phase carbonylation of dimethoxymethane (DMM) catalyzed by heteropolyacids (HPAs). The experiment results showed that H3PW12O40 (PW12) exhibited the best catalytic performance for the carbonylation of DMM, and its high catalytic activity was attributed to the synergistic effect between its superior acidic strength and the high polarity of the solvent.

A kind of composite materials consisting of nano-sized Nafion resin homogeneously dispersed in a high-surface silica matrix was prepared by sol-gel method and used as catalysts in the vapor-phase carbonylation reaction of dimethoxymethane for production of methylmethoxy acetate. These composite catalysts showed much higher catalytic activity in comparison with the original pure Nafion resin catalyst. The remarkable improvement of catalytic performance was due to the increased accessibility of acid sites of Nafion resin in the composite catalysts. The contents of Nafion-H resin and silica precursors were found to have a great influence on the structure of the composite, resulting in different catalytic activity during DMM carbonylation reactions. Furthermore, the comparison of the composite catalysts with high-silica H-Y and H-Beta zeolite catalysts demonstrated that the excellent catalytic performance is closely related to the higher acid strength and larger pores of Nafion-silica composite materials.

Carbon aerogels (CA) were applied in the synthesis of Cu/CA catalysts by the impregnation method and the catalysts with boron-doped CA supports were systematically characterized and evaluated in the hydrogenation of dimethyl oxalate (DMO). The Cu/xB-CA catalyst with 25 wt% copper showed 100% DMO conversion and the highest ethylene glycol (EG) or methyl glycolate (MG) selectivity of 70% at 230 °C as well as a lifetime of over 150 h. The characterization results disclosed the reason the performance of the catalysts could be tuned facilely by changing the amount of boron doping, which effectively influenced the interrelation between copper and CA, acidity and alkalinity of catalysts and Cu dispersion. Both the original carbon aerogels and that promoted with little B could provide larger surface areas and high dispersion of the metal. The species, size of copper particles and the ratio of Cu+/(Cu+ + Cu0) could be regulated by boron doping, thus adjusting the type of hydrogenation products.

Methyl methoxyacetate (MMAc) is a significant chemical product and can be applied as a gasoline and diesel fuel additive. This study aimed to achieve the industrial production of MMAc via dimethoxymethane (DMM) carbonylation. The effects of industrial DMM sources, reaction temperature, water content, pretreatment temperature, reaction pressure and time, the ratio of CO to DMM and recycle times were systematically investigated without any solvent. The conversion of DMM was 99.98% with 50.66% selectivity of MMAc at 393 K, 6.0 MPa reaction pressure, with the ratio of CO to DMM of only 1.97/1. When water was extracted from the DMM reactant, the MMAc selectivity significantly rose to 68.83%. This resin catalyst was reused for more than nineteen times in a slurry phase reactor and continuously performed for 300 h without noticeable loss of activity in a fixed bed reactor, displaying excellent stability. The mixed products were successfully separated by distillation, and 99.18% purity of MMAc was obtained. Therefore, the reported DMM carbonylation to MMAc process has an excellent basis for industrial application.

Heteroatom doping is a promising approach to improve the properties of carbon materials for customized applications. Herein, a series of Cu catalysts supported on boron-doped carbon nanotubes (Cu/xB-CNTs) were prepared for the hydrogenation of dimethyl oxalate (DMO) to ethanol. The structure and chemical properties of boron-doped catalysts were characterized by XRD, TEM, N2O pulse adsorption, CO chemisorption, H2 temperature-programmed reduction, and NH3 temperature-programmed desorption, which revealed that doping boron into CNT supports improved the Cu dispersion, strengthened the interaction of Cu species with the CNT support, introduced more surface acid sites, and increased the surface area of Cu0 and especially Cu+ sites. Consequently, the catalytic activity and stability of the catalysts were greatly enhanced by boron doping. 100 % DMO conversion and 78.1 % ethanol selectivity could be achieved over the Cu/1B-CNTs catalyst, the ethanol selectivity of which was almost 1.7 times higher than that of the catalyst without boron doping. These results suggest that doping CNTs with boron is an efficient approach to improve the catalytic performance of CNT-based catalysts for hydrogenation of DMO. The boron-doped CNT-based catalyst with improved ethanol selectivity and catalytic stability will be helpful in the development of efficient Cu catalysts supported on non-silica materials for selective hydrogenation of DMO to ethanol.

The development of catalysts able to assist industrially important chemical processes is a topic of high importance. In view of the catalytic capabilities of small metal clusters, research efforts are being focused on the synthesis of novel catalysts bearing such active sites. Here we report a heterogeneous catalyst consisting of Pd4 clusters with mixed-valence 0/+1 oxidation states, stabilized and homogeneously organized within the walls of a metal-organic framework (MOF). The resulting solid catalyst outperforms state-of-the-art metal catalysts in carbene-mediated reactions of diazoacetates, with high yields (>90%) and turnover numbers (up to 100,000). In addition, the MOF-supported Pd4 clusters retain their catalytic activity in repeated batch and flow reactions (>20 cycles). Our findings demonstrate how this synthetic approach may now instruct the future design of heterogeneous catalysts with advantageous reaction capabilities for other important processes.
