The conversion of carbohydrates into lactic acid has attracted increasing attention owing to the broad applications of lactic acid. However, the current methods of thermochemical conversion commonly suffer from limited selectivity or the need for harsh conditions. Herein, a light-driven system of highly selective conversion of glucose into lactic acid at low temperatures was developed. By constructing a hybrid multifunctional multi-walled carbon nanotube/layered double hydroxide composite catalyst (CNT/LDHs), the highest lactic acid yield of 88.6% with 90.0% selectivity was achieved. The performance of CNT/LDHs for lactic acid production from glucose is attributed to the following factors: (i) CNTs generate a strong heating center under irradiation, providing heat for converting glucose into lactic acid; (ii) LDHs catalyze glucose isomerization, in which the photoinduced OVs (Lewis acid) in LDHs under irradiation further improve the catalytic activity; and (iii) in a heterogeneous-homogeneous synergistically catalytic system (LDHs-OH-), OH- ions are concentrated in LDHs, forming strong base sites to catalyze subsequent cascade reactions.

The acceptorless dehydrogenation of diverse aromatic and aliphatic primary alcohols to corresponding carboxylic acids has been accomplished by self-supported NHC-Ru single-site catalysts under mild reaction conditions. Besides broad substrates with excellent activity, selectivity and good tolerance to sensitive functional groups, the solid single-site catalyst could be recovered and reused for more than 20 runs without deactivation. Remarkably, up to 1.8 × 104 turnover numbers could be achieved by this newly developed sustainable protocol in gram scale at low catalyst loading, highlighting its potential in industry.

Ce promoted Cu/γ-Al2O3 catalysts were prepared with varying amounts of Cu (x = 0–10 wt%) and Ce (y = 0–15 wt%). The prepared catalysts were characterized and tested for the conversion of aqueous glucose (5 wt%) to 1,2-propanediol in a batch reactor. 10%Ce-8%Cu/γ-Al2O3 showed the complete conversion of glucose with 62.7% selectivity of 1,2-propanediol and total glycols (1,2-propanediol, ethylene glycol & 1,2-butanediol) of 81% at milder reaction conditions. Cu facilitated the hydrogenation activity and Ce loading optimize the acid/base sites of Cu/γ-Al2O3 which obtain high selectivity of 1, 2-propanediol. Catalyst reusability is reported.

Palladium nanoparticles stabilized by a sterically demanding secondary diamine ligand have been synthesized by hydrogen reduction of a palladium acetate complex bearing the corresponding diimine ligand. The obtained nanoparticles were used to catalyze the aerobic oxidation of 1,2-propandiol in n-hexane, and after their heterogenization onto a high surface area carbon, in water. In n-hexane (2,4-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl) methanol has been obtained as major product, whereas in water acetic acid with a selectivity of >85 % has been achieved. The selectivity switch observed was a clear induced by water. The robustness of diamine-stabilized palladium nanoparticles under real aerobic oxidation conditions has been proved by recycling experiments, TEM measurements of the recovered catalysts and by comparison of its performance with that of palladium nanoparticles generated by the metal vapor synthesis technique and supported onto the same carbon in the absence of the stabilizing diamine ligand.

The selective one-pot synthesis of lactic acid (LA) from cellulose, and further the raw biomass, on heterogeneous catalysts is the key point for the development of biorefinery technology. Herein, we reported an yttrium (Y) modified siliceous Beta zeolites catalyst via two-step post-synthesis for highly efficient conversion of cellulose to LA. Under condition of 220 °C and 2 MPa N2, the cellulose could be transformed to LA with a yield of 49.2 % within 30 min, and the substrate can be extended to various raw biomass. It was demonstrated that the dealumination and modification of Y can efficiently modulate the acidity on the surface of zeolite. The dehydration products HMF and other derivatives were suppressed, and the yield of LA was correlated in line with the acid amount, which were attributed to the increased Lewis acidity originated by Y incorporation. These results contribute to the development of the green and efficient synthesis of bio-chemicals.

Chemocatalytic production of lactic acid from biomass feedstock is an alternative route with high potential, but with the prerequisites of long reaction time, high temperature, and/or a tailored catalyst. In this work, an N-TiO2 photothermal catalyst prepared by a simple sol-gel method using urea as a nitrogen and carbon source could catalyse a variety of biomass sugars to quantitatively produce lactic acid (up to 98.9% yield) in water under visible light and at a low temperature of 60 °C in a time as short as 30 min. N-TiO2 provides a suitable valence band position (2.51 eV) for the photo-oxidation reaction, with more active species being formed on the catalyst surface (e.g., h+, e-, OH and O2) and a light-induced heating effect caused by the carbon photothermal layer, which can effectively activate carbohydrates to undergo a cascade reaction process. Theoretical calculations show that the charge of N-TiO2 is highly separated, in which the N element acts as an electron trap and is enriched with plenty of electrons, leading to effective isolation of holes and electrons. In addition, the N-TiO2 catalyst exhibits good reusability and can be recycled with little loss of activity. The developed N and C-enhanced photothermal synergistic protocol opens up an avenue for producing organic acids from renewable biomass resources under mild conditions. This journal is
Support effect in Co3O4-based catalysts for selective partial oxidation of glycerol to lactic acid
Torres, Sebastian,Palacio, Ruben,López, Diana
, (2021/05/10)
Co3O4 supported on CeO2, ZrO2 and TiO2, were used as catalysts in glycerol partial oxidation to lactic acid. The aim was to establish the influence of the support on the cobalt-derived catalysts activity. The most active catalyst based on TOF followed the order: Co3O4/CeO2 (1.2 × 10?1 s?1) > Co3O4/ZrO2 (8.3 × 10-2 s?1) > Co3O4/TiO2 (3.0 × 10-2 s?1), with lactic acid selectivity at comparable glycerol conversion (53.5 ± 5.5 %) being higher when using CeO2 support, Co3O4/CeO2 (90 %) > Co3O4/ZrO2 (78 %) > Co3O4/TiO2 (68 %). These results indicated that the support type not only influenced activity but also selectivity to lactic acid. The Co3O4/CeO2 catalyst with less exposed cobalt species at the surface enriched in Co3+ ions, a more homogeneous composition of cobalt species being reduced at low temperatures, with acid sites of middle strength and lower density of acidic sites, is at the origin of a greater selectivity towards lactic acid, in addition this catalyst was active in 4 catalytic cycles.
