Hydrophobic WO3/SiO2 catalyst for the nitration of aromatics in liquid phase
Kulal,Kasabe,Jadhav,Dongare,Umbarkar
, p. 105 - 113 (2019/02/15)
WO3/SiO2 solid acid catalyst synthesized using sol gel method has shown promising activity (up to 65% conversion) for aromatic nitration in liquid phase using commercial nitric acid (70%) as nitrating agent without using any sulfuric acid. The water formed during the reaction as well as water from dilute nitric acid (70%) was removed azeotropically, however due to the hydrophilic nature of the catalyst, some water gets strongly adsorbed on catalyst surface forming a barrier layer between catalyst and organics. This prevents effective adsorption of substrate on catalyst surface for its subsequent reaction. To improve the activity further, the hydrophilic/hydrophobic nature of the catalyst was altered by post modification by grafting with commercial short chain organosilane (Dynasylan 9896). The modified 20% WO3/SiO2 catalyst when used for o-xylene nitration in liquid phase, showed significant increase in the conversion from 65% to 80% under identical reaction conditions. Catalyst characterization revealed decrease in the surface area of 20% WO3/SiO2 from 356 m2/g to 302 m2/g after grafting with Dynasylan 9896. The fine dispersion of WO3 particles (2–5 nm) on silica support was not affected due to modification. NMR and FTIR study revealed the decrease in surface hydroxyl groups imparting hydrophobicity to the catalyst. Interestingly the total acidic sites of the catalyst remained almost unaltered (0.54 mmol NH3/g) even after modification. Even though, the acidity and other characteristics of the catalyst did not change appreciably, there was a considerable increase in the o-xylene conversion which can be ascribed to the hydrophobic nature of the catalyst.

Continuous-Flow Nitration of o-Xylene: Effect of Nitrating Agent and Feasibility of Tubular Reactors for Scale-Up
Sharma,Joshi,Kulkarni
, p. 1138 - 1147 (2015/09/28)
Continuous-flow nitration of o-xylene has been studied with different nitrating agents over a wide range of conditions for different parameters such as temperature, residence time, and concentrations. A nitrating mixture comprising sulfuric acid and fuming nitric acid was seen to yield higher selectivity for the isomer 1,2-dimethyl-3-nitrobenzene over the isomer 1,2-dimethyl-4-nitrobenzene and also a non-negligible quantity of dinitro derivatives of o-xylene. With only fuming nitric acid as the nitrating agent, the reaction was selective for 1,2-dimethyl-4-nitrobenzene over 1,2-dimethyl-3-nitrobenzene. Impurities mainly come from nitration of mononitro derivatives, and this occurs more from nitration of the 3-nitro isomer because of its higher reactivity with nitric acid. An economic analysis of the continuous-flow reactor for the production of 1,2-dimethyl-4-nitrobenzene at 100 and 500 kg/h in a jacketed tubular reactor showed that numbering-up is a more economical approach for higher production capacity. A combination of large- and small-sized tubes depending upon the relative rates of heat generation during a reaction will achieve more profit and a shorter payback period than having the entire reactor made of a single tube size.
Regioselective nitration of m-xylene catalyzed by zeolite catalyst
Dong, Xiongzi,Peng, Xinhua
, p. 1122 - 1128 (2016/01/15)
Nitration with nitric acid and acetic anhydride via acetyl nitrate as nitrating species is efficient with the substrate m-xylene as solvent. Zeolite Hβ with an SiO2/Al2O3 ratio of 500 was found to be the most active of the catalysts tried both in yield and regioselectivity in the nitration of m-xylene. The molecular volume of the reactants was calculated with the Gaussian 09 program at the B3LYP/6-311+G(2d, p) level and compared with the size of the zeolite Hβ channels. A range of other substrates were subjected to the nitrating system under the same conditions as those optimized for m-xylene and excellent selectivity was obtained.
Acid-catalyzed regioselective nitration of o-xylene to 4-nitro-o-xylene with nitrogen dioxide: Br?nsted acid versus lewis acid
Tang, Bo,Wei, Songbo,Peng, Xinhua
, p. 2057 - 2065 (2014/07/07)
Nitration of o-xylene with nitrogen dioxide imparts remarkable selectivity to 4-nitro-o-xylene. The addition of Br?nsted acids and Lewis acids can effectively improve the selectivity for 4-nitro-o-xylene and/or yield, and the Lewis acids present a better influence on the reactions than Br?nsted acids do. A 71% yield of mononitro-o-xylene with high selectivity for 4-nitro-o-xylene (ratio 4-/3- / 3.91) has been achieved by the assistance of bismuth trichloride under solvent-free conditions. Copyright

Direct synthesis of microporous-mesoporous zeolite-β-SBA-15 (ZBS-15) composite catalyst from the synthetic precursors of SBA-15and zeolite-β seeds under acidic hydrothermal conditions through the simultaneous self-assembly of mesoporous silica SBA-15 and zeolite-β has been accomplished and characterized the ZBS-15 catalyst by XRD, N2 sorption, FT-IR, TPD of ammonia and SEM techniques. The activity of the ZBS-15 composite catalyst for the nitration of benzenes under solvent-free conditions has been investigated, which revealed that there is a significant synergistic influence of both zeolite-β and SBA-15 materials on the activity of the ZBS-15 catalyst.
