The optimal preparation conditions of Mo/H-ZSM-22 bi-functional catalysts were obtained via the sublimation phenomenon of MoO3 at high calcination temperatures, which was beneficial for the well-dispersion of MoOx species with 5?10 nm particles. High reduction temperature enhanced the reduction from Mo6+ to Mo4+ and even from Mo4+ to Mo°, which would be beneficial for iso-alkanes formation with higher carbon reservation. Importantly, 89.3 % selectivity of C16 alkanes of which 61.7 % were iso-C16 alkanes were obtained with complete deoxygenation of palmitic acid, which was the highest selectivity of C16 alkanes over Mo/H-ZSM-22 bi-functional catalyst prepared at a calcination temperature of 550 °C and at a reduction temperature of 600 °C. The results would offer a novel candidate of bi-functional catalysts for upgrading of microalgae-based bio-oil to high-value jet fuel components with high selectivity of iso-alkanes and carbon reservation.
Decarboxylation of fatty acids over Pd supported on mesoporous carbon

Fatty acid decarboxylation was studied in a semibatch reactor over 1 wt.% Pd/C (Sibunit) using five different fatty acids, C17-C20 and C22, as feeds. The same decarboxylation rates were obtained for pure fatty acids, whereas extensive catalyst poisoning and/or sintering and coking occurred with low purity fatty acids as reactants. One reason for catalyst poisoning using behenic acid (C22) as a feedstock was its high phosphorus content. The decarboxylation rate of fatty acids decreased also with increasing fatty acid to metal ratio.

In this paper, the catalytic performance and deoxygenation path of methyl palmitate on Ni2P/SiO2 catalysts were systematically studied in a continuous flow fixed-bed reactor. A series of Ni2P/SiO2 catalysts (with different molar ratios of P/Ni and Ni2P loadings) were synthesized at 300°C using the thermal decomposition of nickel hypophosphite. The increased molar ratio of P/Ni generates phosphate-rich nickel phosphide catalysts and increasing conversion. Interestingly, Ni2P/SiO2 showed significantly higher conversion of methyl palmitate in comparison with Ni/SiO2. Furthermore, an activation temperature higher than 500°C would significantly reduce the catalytic activity, as a result of the sintering of Ni2P. The pressure in a range of 3.0 to 0.5 MPa almost has no effect on the deoxygenation of methyl palmitate, but significantly affects the reaction path and product distribution. Finally, a possible deoxygenation path over Ni2P/SiO2 was proposed based on a GC-MS investigation.

The reactivity of cobalt pincer complexes supported by the bulky tetramethylated PNP ligands Me4PNPR(R = iPr, tBu) has been investigated. In these ligands, the undesired H atom loss reactivity observed earlier in some classical CH2-arm PNP cobalt complexes is blocked, allowing them to be utilized for promoting two-electron catalytic transformations at the cobalt center. Accordingly, reaction of the formally CoIMe complex 3 with H2 under ambient pressure and temperature afforded the CoIII trihydride 4-H, in a reaction cascade reasoned to proceed by two-electron oxidative addition and reductive eliminations. This mechanistic proposal, alongside the observance of alkene insertion and ethane production upon sequential exposure of 3 to ethylene and H2, prompted an exploration into 3 as a catalyst for hydrogenation. Complex 4-H, formed in situ from 3 under H2, was found to be active in the catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes and alkynes. The proposed two-electron mechanism is reminiscent of the platinum group metals and demonstrates the utility of the bulky redox-innocent Me4PNPR ligand in the avoidance of one-electron reactivity, a concept that may show broad applicability in expanding the scope of earth-abundant first-row transition-metal catalysis.

The attainment of the efficient ignition of traditional liquid hydrocarbons of scramjet combustors at low flight Mach numbers is a challenging task. In this study, a novel chemical strategy to improve the reliable ignition and efficient combustion of hydrocarbon fuels was proposed. A directional hydroboration reaction was used to convert hydrocarbon fuel into highly active alkylborane, thereby leading to changes in the combustion reaction pathway of hydrocarbon fuel. A directional reaction to achieve the hypergolic ignition of 1-octene was designed and developed by using Gaussian simulation. Borane dimethyl sulfide (BDMS), a high-energy additive, was allowed to react spontaneously with 1-octene to achieve the hypergolic ignition of liquid hydrocarbon fuel at -15 °C. Compared with the ignition delay time of pure 1-octene (565 °C), the ignition delay time of 1-octene/BDMS (9:1.2) decreased by 3850% at 50 °C. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry confirmed the directional reaction of the hypergolic ignition reaction pathway of 1-octene and BDMS. Moreover, optical measurements showed the development trend of hydroxyl radicals (OH·) in the lower temperature hypergolic ignition and combustion of 1-octene. Finally, this study indicates that the enhancement of the low-temperature ignition performance of 1-octene by hydroboration in the presence of BDMS is feasible and promising for jet propellant design with tremendous future applications.
