CATALYTIC CONVERSION OF CARBON DIOXIDE TO METHANOL
-
Page/Page column 14, (2019/10/29)
The present disclosure relates to a new catalytic process for the production of methanol from carbon dioxide, comprising: (1) the conversion of carbon dioxide and hydrogen to formic acid or formate salts; (2) converting the formic acid or formate salts to diformate esters of diols; (3) hydrogenating the diformate esters to methanol and diols. The diols produced from the hydrogenation reaction can be recovered and re-used to prepare the diformate esters.

The aminophosphine ligands R2P(CH2) 2NH2 and R2P(CH2)3NH 2 (R = Ph, iPr, tBu) were isolated in good to excellent yields from the reaction of LiPR2 with Cl(CH 2)2N(TMS)2 and Cl(CH2) 3N(TMS)2, respectively, followed by hydrolysis. This approach allows fine tuning of the ligands' stereoelectronic properties through the variation of the substituents on the phosphine. The aminophosphine ligands were used to prepare the ruthenium complexes RuCl2(R 2P(CH2)2NH2)2 and RuCl2(R2P(CH2)3NH2) 2 by reacting a 2:1 mixture of the respective ligand and [RuCl 2(cod)]n in an appropriate solvent. The resulting complexes were found to be excellent catalysts for the hydrogenation of ketones and imines. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2009.
