- Supported Pt-Ni bimetallic nanoparticles catalyzed hydrodeoxygenation of dibenzofuran with high selectivity to bicyclohexane
-
Catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) is one of the most effective methods to upgrade the oxygen-containing compounds derived from coal tar to valuable hydrocarbons. Herein, an efficient bimetallic catalyst Pt1Ni4/MgO was prepared and applied in the HDO of dibenzofuran (DBF). High yield (95%) of the desired product bicyclohexane (BCH) was achieved at 240 °C and 1.2 MPa of H2. Superior catalytic performance could be ascribed to the “relay catalysis” of Pt sites and Ni sites, and the reaction pathway is proposed as well. Scale-up experiment and recyclability test were also performed, which demonstrated the recyclability and promising potential application of Pt1Ni4/MgO.

- Cobalt-Nanoparticles Catalyzed Efficient and Selective Hydrogenation of Aromatic Hydrocarbons
-
The development of inexpensive and practical catalysts for arene hydrogenations is key for future valorizations of this general feedstock. Here, we report the development of cobalt nanoparticles supported on silica as selective and general catalysts for such reactions. The specific nanoparticles were prepared by assembling cobalt-pyromellitic acid-piperazine coordination polymer on commercial silica and subsequent pyrolysis. Applying the optimal nanocatalyst, industrial bulk, substituted, and functionalized arenes as well as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are selectively hydrogenated to obtain cyclohexane-based compounds under industrially viable and scalable conditions. The applicability of this hydrogenation methodology is presented for the storage of H2 in liquid organic hydrogen carriers.

- Asymmetric Induction via a Helically Chiral Anion: Enantioselective Pentacarboxycyclopentadiene Br?nsted Acid-Catalyzed Inverse-Electron-Demand Diels-Alder Cycloaddition of Oxocarbenium Ions
-
An enantioselective catalytic inverse-electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction of salicylaldehyde acetal-derived oxocarbenium ions and vinyl ethers to generate 2,4-dioxychromanes is described. Chiral pentacarboxycyclopentadiene (PCCP) acids are found to be effective for a variety of substrates. Computational and X-ray crystallographic analyses support the unique hypothesis that an anion with point-chirality-induced helical chirality dictates the absolute sense of stereochemistry in this reaction.

- A stable and practical nickel catalyst for the hydrogenolysis of C-O bonds
-
The selective hydrogenolysis of C-O bonds constitutes a key step for the valorization of biomass including lignin fragments. Moreover, this defunctionalization process offers the possibility of producing interesting organic building blocks in a straightforward manner from oxygenated compounds. Herein, we demonstrate the reductive hydrogenolysis of a wide variety of ethers including diaryl, aryl-alkyl and aryl-benzyl derivatives catalyzed by a stable heterogeneous NiAlOx catalyst in the presence of a Lewis acid (LA). The special feature of this catalyst system is the formation of substituted cyclohexanols from the corresponding aryl ether.

- Influence of nanoscale distribution of Pd particles in the mesopores of MCM-41 on the catalytic performance of Pd/MCM-41
-
Two different nanoscale Pd particle distributions in MCM-41, i.e. in the mesopores and on the external surface, were obtained by using a siliceous MCM-41 and a silylated MCM-41 (S-MCM-41) as the starting support materials, respectively. The electron density of Pd in Pd/S-MCM-41 was lower than that in Pd/MCM-41. Pd/S-MCM-41 exhibited much better selective hydrogenation performance but a lower hydrogenolysis activity than Pd/MCM-41. These differences are related to the different Pd particle distributions in MCM-41 and S-MCM-41, demonstrating that the performance of noble metal catalysts is tunable by simply controlling the nanoscale metal particle distribution in the pores.

- Promising Ni/Al-SBA-15 catalysts for hydrodeoxygenation of dibenzofuran into fuel grade hydrocarbons: Synergetic effect of Ni and Al-SBA-15 support
-
This work has been undertaken with the aim of designing promising noble-metal-free catalysts for efficient hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of dibenzofuran (DBF) into fuel grade hydrocarbons. For this, various Ni/Al-SBA-15 catalysts with different Si/Al (50, 60, 70 and 80) mole ratios were synthesized and their catalytic performance was tested for HDO of DBF in a batch reactor. The catalysts were systematically characterized using XRD, N2-adsorption-desorption, Raman, H2-TPR, NH3-TPD, XRF, and FESEM techniques. The activity results showed that the HDO of DBF proceeds via hydrogenation of benzene on the Ni sites followed by cleavage of C-O bonds on the acidic sites of the catalyst to yield unsaturated hydrocarbons. Further hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons on the Ni sites gives bicyclohexane as the major product. Remarkably, a 100% DBF conversion was found for all the catalysts except for Ni/SBA-15 and Ni/Al-SBA-15(80) (Si/Al mole ratio = 80) catalysts, which showed 97.97 and 99.31%, respectively. A significant observation noticed in this study is that the incorporation of Al into Ni/SBA-15 results in an outstanding improvement in the selectivity of the bicyclohexane product. Among the catalysts tested, the Ni/Al-SBA-15(50) (Si/Al mole ratio = 50) catalyst showed the highest efficiency, with superior selectivity of ~87% for bicyclohexane and ~96% degree of deoxygenation at 10 MPa, 260 °C and 5 h. The obtained structure-activity results reveal the synergetic effect of Ni and support in HDO of DBF reaction: the concentration of acidic sites has a significant effect on the selectivity of the desired products.

- Effective hydrodeoxygenation of dibenzofuran by a bimetallic catalyst in water
-
Effective hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of dibenzofuran (DBF) catalyzed by a bimetallic nickel/platinum (Ni/Pt) catalyst in water was demonstrated at 200 °C and 1.2 MPa hydrogen (H2) pressure. The bimetallic catalysts prepared by a wet chemical method exhibit prominent activity that overcomes the limitations of use of a single Ni or Pt metal catalyst. The yield of HDO products can be up to 90%. Reaction results indicate that the conversion of DBF was affected by the reaction temperature and H2 pressure. The deoxygenation selectivity was strongly dependent on reaction temperature. The reaction pathway is also proposed.

- Diastereoselective and Enantioselective Silylation of 2-Arylcyclohexanols
-
The silylation-based kinetic resolution of trans 2-arylcyclohexanols was accomplished by employing a triaryl silyl chloride as the derivatizing reagent with a commercially available isothiourea catalyst. The methodology is selective for the trans diastereomer over the cis, which provides an opportunity to selectively derivatize one stereoisomer out of a mixture of four. By employing this technology, a facile, convenient method to form a highly enantiomerically enriched silylated alcohol was accomplished through a one-pot reduction-silylation sequence that started with a 2-aryl-substituted ketone.

- Comparison of the catalytic activity of [(η5-C 5H5)Ru(2,2′-bipyridine)(L)]OTf versus [(η5-C5H5)Ru(6,6′-diamino-2,2′- bipyridine)(L)]OTf (L = labile ligand) in the hydrogenation of cyclohexanone. Evidence for the presence of a metal-ligand bifunctional mechanism under acidic conditions
-
The two title complexes as well as the dimeric complex [Ru(II) (η5-C5H5)(6,6′-diamino-2,2′- bipyridine)]2(OTf)2 have been synthesized and characterized by NMR and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The direct structural comparison of the 2,2′-bipyridine and 6,6′-diamino-2, 2′-bipyridine complexes suggests that the electronic and steric environments of the ruthenium centers in both complexes are essentially equivalent, providing for a unique opportunity to probe the influence of the noncoordinated amine substituent on the relative reactivity and catalytic activity of the complexes. Opposite to what would be anticipated on the basis of steric effects, the bulkier amine-substituted ligand results in a catalyst showing substantially higher activity in the hydrogenation of cyclohexanone in acidic medium, which is attributed to the operation of a metal-ligand bifunctional hydrogenation mechanism mediated by the amine substituents in their protonated form acting as proton shuttles.
