Sheet silicates, also known as phyllosilicates, contain parallel sheets of tetrahedral silicate built up by [Si2O5]2- entities connected through intermediate metal-oxygen octahedral layers. The well-known minerals talc and pyrophyllite are belonging to this group based on magnesium and aluminium, respectively. Surprisingly, the ferric analogue rarely occurs in nature and is found in mixtures and conglomerates with other materials only. While partial incorporation of iron into pyrophyllites has been achieved, no synthetic protocol for purely iron-based pyrophyllite has been published yet. Here we report about the first artificial synthesis of ferripyrophyllite under exceptional mild conditions. A similar ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) nanosheet morphology is obtained as in talc or pyrophyllite but with iron(iii) as a central metal. The high surface material exhibits a remarkably high thermostability. It shows some catalytic activity in ammonia synthesis and can serve as catalyst support material for noble metal nanoparticles.

Designing heterogeneous metal-free catalysts for hydrogenation is a long-standing challenge in catalysis. Nanodiamond-based carbon materials were prepared that are surface-doped with electron-rich nitrogen and electron-deficient boron. The two heteroatoms are directly bonded to each other to form unquenched Lewis pairs with infinite π-electron donation from the surrounding graphitic structure. Remarkably, these Lewis pairs can split H2 to form H+/H? pairs, which subsequently serve as the active species for hydrogenation of different substrates. This unprecedented finding sheds light on the uptake of H2 across carbon-based materials and suggests that dual Lewis acidity–basicity on the carbon surface may be used to heterogeneously activate a variety of small molecules.

Encapsulation of metal nanoparticles in a zeolite matrix is a promising route to integrate multiple sequential reactions into a one-pot and one-step tandem catalytic reaction. We report a cationic polymer-assisted synthetic strategy to encapsulate Pt nanoparticles (NPs) into MFI zeolites. Degrees of encapsulation of Pt NPs in the synthesized catalysts exceeding 90% were demonstrated via kinetic studies of model reactions involving substrates with different molecular dimensions. HZSM-5 zeolite-encapsulated Pt NPs are able to selectively mediate the tandem aldol condensation and hydrogenation of furfural and acetone to form hydrogenated C8 products with a combined yield of 87%. In contrast, hydrogenation and decarbonylation of furfural dominate on Pt NPs supported on HZSM-5 at otherwise identical conditions. The high selectivity toward the tandem reaction on the encapsulated catalyst is attributed to the distribution of metal and acid sites, which limits the access of furfural to Pt sites and promotes the acid-catalyzed aldol condensation. This is the first demonstration that the product distribution in a tandem reaction is manipulated by tailoring the architecture of catalytic materials via encapsulation.

The solvent effects on hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of 4-(2-furyl)-3-buten-2-one (F-Ac) over Pt/TiO2 catalyst were investigated at T = 200 °C and P(H2) = 50 bar. The initial reactant is the main product of aldol condensation between furfural and acetone, which constitutes a promising route for the production of bio-based chemicals and fuels. A sequence of experiments was performed using a selection of polar solvents with different chemical natures: protic (methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-pentanol) and aprotic (acetone, tetrahydrofuran (THF), n,n-dimethylformamide (DMF)). In case of protic solvents, a good correlation was found between the polarity parameters and conversion. Consequently, the highest hydrogenation rate was observed when 2-propanol was used as a solvent. In contrast, the hydrogenation activity in presence of aprotic solvents was related rather to solvent-catalyst interactions. Thus, the initial hydrogenation rate declined in order Acetone > THF > DMF, i.e. in accordance with the increase in the nucleophilic donor number and solvent desorption energy. Regarding the product distribution, a complex mixture of intermediates was obtained, owing to the successive hydrogenation (aliphatic C[dbnd]C, furanic C[dbnd]C and ketonic C[dbnd]O bonds), ring opening (via C[sbnd]O hydrogenolysis) and deoxygenation reactions. Based on the proposed reaction scheme for the conversion of F-Ac into octane, the influence of the studied solvents over the cascade catalytic conversion is discussed. A significant formation of cyclic saturated compounds such as 2-propyl-tetrahydropyran and 2-methyl-1,6-dioxaspiro[4,4]nonane took place via undesirable side reactions of cyclization and isomerization. The best catalytic performance was found when using acetone and 2-propanol as solvents, achieving significant yields of 4-(2-tetrahydrofuryl)-butan-2-ol (28.5–40.4%) and linear alcohols (6.3–10.4%). The better performance of these solvents may be associated with a lower activation energy barrier for key intermediate products, due to their moderate interaction with the reactant and the catalyst. In case of methanol and DMF, undesired reactions between the reactant and the solvent took place, leading to a lower selectivity towards the targeted hydrodeoxygenated products.

The partial replacement of ruthenium by iron ("dilution") provided enhanced catalytic activities and selectivities for bimetallic iron-ruthenium nanoparticles immobilized on a supported ionic liquid phase (FeRuNPs@SILP). An organometallic synthetic approach to the preparation of FeRuNPs@SILP allowed for a controlled and flexible incorporation of Fe into bimetallic FeRu NPs. The hydrogenation of substituted aromatic substrates using bimetallic FeRuNPs@SILP showed high catalytic activities and selectivities for the reduction of a variety of unsaturated moieties without saturation of the aromatic ring. The formation of a bimetallic phase not only leads to an enhanced differentiation of the hydrogenation selectivity, but even reversed the order of functional group hydrogenation in certain cases. In particular, bimetallic FeRuNPs@SILP (Fe:Ru = 25:75) were found to exhibit accelerated reaction rates for C=O hydrogenation within furan-based substrates which were >4 times faster than monometallic RuNPs@SILP. Thus, the controlled incorporation of the non-noble metal into the bimetallic phase provided novel catalytic properties that could not be obtained using either of the monometallic catalysts.

Aiming at the valorisation of furfural-derived compounds, the hydrodeoxygenation of furfural-acetone condensation products has been studied using supported platinum catalysts. The influence of the catalytic properties of different supports, such as SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, hydrotalcite (HTC), Beta zeolite, Al-SBA-15 and WO3-ZrO2, was evaluated in a batch reactor for 480 min at 200 °C and 50 bar of H2. The used feed consisted of a mixture of furfural-acetone adducts (C8-C19), obtained in previous experiments using a continuous flow reactor and hydrotalcite as a catalyst. Except for Pt/SiO2, all catalysts showed high conversion of the reactants, especially due to the hydrogenation of all the aliphatic CC bonds. However, the extent of further hydrogenation (furan CC and ketone CO bonds) was limited, particularly when HTC and Al2O3 were used as supports. The higher accessibility of Pt/TiO2 and the smaller Pt particle size shown by Pt/Al-SBA-15, Pt/WO3-ZrO2 and Pt/Beta in comparison with the other catalysts led to an improvement in the hydrogenation of furanic and ketonic groups, likely due to lower adsorption constraints. The higher acid character of the latter group of catalysts promotes dehydration and ring opening steps, thus enhancing the selectivity towards linear alcohols. Likewise, a significant increase in the extent of aldol condensation reactions was also observed with these catalysts, yielding longer carbon chain compounds. Based on this study, a reaction scheme for the transformation of 4-(2-furyl)-3-buten-2-one (C8) into octane has been proposed in order to establish a valuable correlation between the main conversion pathways and the catalytic properties of the employed heterogeneous catalyst, thus contributing to further development of efficient deoxygenation catalysts.

We describe studies of Bronsted acid catalyzed ring opening of substituted furans contained within biomass derived C8- and C9- molecules. Ring opening occurs homogeneously under relatively mild conditions of 80°C using catalytic hydrochloric acid. In the case of 4-(5-methyl-2-furyl) -2-butanone (1a), the reaction proceeds to a single product in up to 92% yield after 24 hours. For 4-(2-furanyl)-2-butanone (1b) and 4-(5-hydroxymethyl)-2- furanyl-2-butanone (1c), however, multiple products are observed, illustrating the significant influence of furan ring substituents on the reactivity of this class of compounds. The generality of these reaction pathways was tested using several other similar substrates. Kinetics experiments indicate that ring opening of 1a occurs via specific acid catalysis, and computations elucidate the effect of initial protonation on the reaction pathway. Calculated pK a values were calibrated against experimentally measured values and are consistent with observed reactivities. Inclusion of explicit, hydrogen-bonded water molecules in addition to the SMD solvent model is necessary when studying protonation of alcohol and ketone groups. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2013.

The use of transition-metal nanoparticles/ionic liquid (IL) as a thermoregulated and recyclable catalytic system for hydrogenation has been investigated under mild conditions. The functionalized ionic liquid was composed of poly(ethylene glycol)-functionalized alkylimidazolium as the cation and tris(meta-sulfonatophenyl)phosphine ([P(C6H4-m-SO 3)3]3-) as the anion. Ethyl acetate was chosen as the thermomorphic solvent to avoid the use of toxic organic solvents. Due to a cooperative effect regulated by both the cation and anion of the ionic liquid, the nanocatalysts displayed distinguished temperature-dependent phase behavior and excellent catalytic activity and selectivity, coupled with high stability. In the hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, the ionic-liquid-stabilized palladium and rhodium nanoparticles exhibited higher selectivity for the hydrogenation of the C=C bonds than commercially available catalysts (Pd/C and Rh/C). We believe that the anion of the ionic liquid, [P(C6H4-m-SO3)3]3-, plays a role in changing the surrounding electronic characteristics of the nanoparticles through its coordination capacity, whereas the poly(ethylene glycol)-functionalized alkylimidazolium cation is responsible for the thermomorphic properties of the nanocatalyst in ethyl acetate. The present catalytic systems can be employed for the hydrogenation of a wide range of substrates bearing different functional groups. The catalysts could be easily separated from the products by thermoregulated phase separation and efficiently recycled ten times without significant changes in their catalytic activity. Copyright
