Paragraph 0043-0050, (2021/11/06)
The invention relates to a method for synthesizing methacrylic acid by decarboxylating itaconic acid. The method comprises the following steps: adding water, itaconic acid and a catalyst into a high-pressure kettle, sealing the high-pressure kettle, introducing nitrogen, and conducting reacting at 190-260 DEG C for 1-8 hours to obtain methacrylic acid, wherein the catalyst is a modified hydroxyapatite catalyst with a general formula of M10(ZO4)6(X) 2, M is one or two selected from a group consisting of Ca, Mg, Ba, Fe or Sr, ZO4 is PO4, and X is OH. The modified hydroxyapatite catalyst has the advantages of being high in activity and selectivity, easy to separate, environmentally friendly and the like, an itaconic acid conversion rate is larger than 98%, and the selectivity of the target product methacrylic acid can reach 75% or above at most.

Dehydrogenative transformations of alkyl chains to alkenes through methylene carbon-hydrogen (C–H) activation remain a substantial challenge. We report two classes of pyridine-pyridone ligands that enable divergent dehydrogenation reactions through palladium-catalyzed b-methylene C–H activation of carboxylic acids, leading to the direct syntheses of a,b-unsaturated carboxylic acids or g-alkylidene butenolides. The directed nature of this pair of reactions allows chemoselective dehydrogenation of carboxylic acids in the presence of other enolizable functionalities such as ketones, providing chemoselectivity that is not possible by means of existing carbonyl desaturation protocols. Product inhibition is overcome through ligand-promoted preferential activation of C(sp3)–H bonds rather than C(sp2)–H bonds or a sequence of dehydrogenation and vinyl C–H alkynylation. The dehydrogenation reaction is compatible with molecular oxygen as the terminal oxidant.
Supported Rb- or Cs-containing HPA catalysts for the selective oxidation of isobutane

Silica-supported catalysts based on Keggin-type heteropolyacids (HPAs) containing rubidium or cesium as counter cations have been prepared by the impregnation method and evaluated in the selective oxidation of isobutane to methacrolein and methacrylic acid. The catalysts were characterized by various techniques such as XRD, N2 physisorption, TGA, Raman spectroscopy, H2-TPR, and NH3-TPD in order to study their thermal stability, structural, and textural properties, acidity and reducibility. It was evidenced that the reducibility of the Keggin type HPAs was improved by supporting the active phase on SiO2. A loading of 40 wt% was the optimum for the selective oxidation of isobutane (IBAN) to methacrylic acid (MAA). The selectivities to MAA and methacrolein (MAC) at given conversion were increased when Cs+ was used as counter cation compared to Rb+. The same trend was observed for mono- and di-vanado-substituted phosphomolybdic acid, whereby the performance followed the order: CsV1/SiO2 > RbV1/SiO2 > CsV2/SiO2 > RbV2/SiO2. The density of acid sites was correlated to the catalytic activity, which underlines the importance of the acid sites for alkane activation.

Developing sustainable 3D printing materials has attained intensive interest due to the rapid growth of the 3D printing industry and the concerns on depletion of fossil resources and environmental pollution. In this work, a novel biobased UV-curable oligomer (GMAESO) was firstly synthesized from epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) and gallic acid (GA) via a 'green' one pot method. The obtained biobased oligomer possessed a biobased content of 82.9%. By co-photopolymerization of the obtained oligomer with a hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) diluent, a series of UV-curable materials were prepared, and their properties as well as curing behaviors were investigated. Notably, the resulting GMAESO resins with high HEMA contents (50-60%) showed low viscosities (52-93 mPa s) and excellent thermal and mechanical properties (a Tg of 128-130 °C, Tp >430 °C, a tensile strength of 42.2-44.4 MPa, etc.) which were comparable or superior to a commercial product. Furthermore, the optimal resin (GMAESO with 50% HEMA) was used for digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing. The resin showed lower penetration depth (0.277 mm) than the commercial resin, thus different-structured objects with high resolution were successfully printed. In general, the developed bio-based UV-curable resins are very promising for application in the 3D printing industry.

The transition-metal-catalyzed carboxylation of aryl and vinyl chlorides with CO2 is rarely studied, and has been achieved only with a Ni catalyst or combination of palladium and photoredox. In this work, the cobalt-catalyzed carboxylation of aryl and vinyl chlorides and bromides with CO2 has been developed. These transformations proceed under mild conditions and exhibit a broad substrate scope, affording the corresponding carboxylic acids in good to high yields.
