The valorization of lignin has significant potential in producing commodity chemicals and fuels from renewable resources. However, the catalytic degradation of lignin is kinetically challenging and often requires noble metal catalysts to be used under harsh and toxic conditions. Here, we report the bias-free, solar reformation of lignin coupled with redox biotransformation in a tandem structure of a BiVO4 photoanode and perovskite photovoltaic. The tandem structure compensates for the potential gap between lignin oxidation and biocatalytic reduction through artificial Z-schematic absorption. We found that the BiVO4-catalyzed photoelectrochemical oxidation of lignin facilitated the fragmentation of higher molecular weight lignin into smaller carboxylated aliphatic and aromatic acids. Lignin oxidation induced photocurrent generation at the photoanode, which enabled efficient electroenzymatic reactions at the cathode. This study successfully demonstrates the oxidative valorization of lignin as well as biocatalytic reductions (e.g., CO2-to-formate and α-ketoglutarate-to-l-glutamate) in an unbiased biocatalytic PEC platform, which provides a new strategic approach for photo-biocatalysis using naturally abundant renewable resources.

Etherification of ethylene glycol with methanol provides a sustainable route for the production of widely used dimethoxyethane; dimethoxyethane is a green solvent and reagent that is applied in batteries and used as a potential diesel fuel additive. SAPO-34 zeolite was found to be an efficient and highly selective catalyst for this etherification via a continuous flow experiment. It achieved up to 79.4% selectivity for dimethoxyethane with around 96.7% of conversion. The relationship of the catalyst's structure and the dimethoxyethane selectivity was established via control experiments. The results indicated that the pore structure of SAPO-34 effectively limited the formation of 1,4-dioxane from activated ethylene glycol, enhanced the reaction of the activated methanol with ethylene glycol in priority, and thus resulted in high selectivity for the desired products. The continuous flow technology used in the study could efficiently promote the complete etherification of EG with methanol to maintain high selectivity for dimethoxyethane.

The reactions of [WCl6] with a series of ethers have been performed in chlorinated solvent and elucidated by means of analytical, spectroscopic and DFT methods. The addition of tetrahydropyran (thp) or 1,4-dioxane to [WCl6] resulted in the reversible formation of the adducts WCl6···L [L = thp (1a), 1,4-dioxane (1b)], detected in solution by NMR spectroscopy. The reaction of [WCl6] with thp in a molar ratio of 1:2 in chloroform at reflux afforded [WOCl4(thp)] (2a), which was isolated in 51 % yield. [WOCl4(OMe2)] (2b) and [WOCl3(OMe2)2] (3a) were isolated in yields of 53 and 18 %, respectively, from the reaction of [WCl6] with an excess of dimethyl ether. [WOCl3(OEt2)2] (3b) was the only identified metal compound produced from the reaction of [WCl6] and OEt2(1:2 molar ratio). According to NMR studies, the oxide ligand in 2a,b and 3a,b was generated by double C–O bond cleavage involving one equivalent of organic reactant. The 1:1 reaction of [WCl6] with 1,2-diethoxyethane led to [WCl5(κ1-OCH2CH2OEt)] (4) and a minor amount of [WCl4(κ2-EtOCH2CH2OEt)] (5). The aryl oxide compound [WCl5(OPh)] (6) was prepared in 62 % yield from the reaction of [WCl6] and anisole by selective Csp3–O bond activation. The prolonged heating of a mixture of [WCl6] and diphenyl ether in 1,2-dichloroethane led to the isolation of the WVcomplex [WCl5(OPh2)] (7). The molecular structures of 2a and 3a were ascertained by X-ray diffraction.

The synthesis of diethyl carbonate (DEC) directly from carbon dioxide, ethylene oxide (EO), and ethanol via one-pot reaction is reported for the first time. The effects of catalyst species and reaction variables on the synthetic performance of DEC were systematically studied. The integration of easily available KI and sodium ethoxide as homogeneous binary catalyst system was found to be very active for the one-pot reaction, and 63.6% of the DEC yield could be achieved under relatively mild reaction conditions (443 K, 3 MPa CO2 initial pressure, 2 h). The byproduct of 2-ethoxyethanol, which is predominantly formed via alcoholysis of EO by ethanol through ring-opening reaction, was produced with small amount (rHmθ=-19.70 a?€S?a?€S?kcal/mol2 and ethanol, the involvement of EO facilitates the formation of DEC, simultaneously with glycol produced. This strategy could also be successfully expanded to terminal epoxide substrates. Furthermore, a possible mechanism of the reaction was proposed on the basis of experimental results. This method provides a highly effective way to produce DEC via directly chemical utilization of CO2 and shows promising application in the manufacture of diethyl carbonate on an industrial scale.

Ti-Beta zeolite has been successfully prepared via a reproducible and scalable two-step post-synthesis strategy, which consists of creating vacant T sites with associated silanol groups by dealumination of H-Beta and subsequent dry impregnation of the resulting Si-Beta with titanocene dichloride. The mechanism of Ti incorporation into the framework of Beta is investigated by diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) and multinuclear solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) spectroscopy. Characterization results obtained from diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) reveal that the majority of incorporated Ti species exist in the form of isolated tetrahedrally coordinated Ti(iv) in the zeolite framework while a minority exists in the form of isolated octahedrally coordinated Ti(vi) at framework or extra-framework positions. The obtained Ti-Beta zeolites are highly active and selective catalysts for the epoxidation of unsaturated ketones, e.g. 2-cyclohexen-1-one, with hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant. A quasilinear correlation between the epoxidation rate and the number of framework Ti(iv) species could be drawn evidencing that these Ti(iv) species are responsible for the epoxidation activity of the Ti-Beta zeolites under study. The impact of preparation parameters and reaction conditions on the catalytic performances of the Ti-Beta zeolites in the epoxidation of unsaturated organic compounds with hydrogen peroxide is discussed in detail. the Partner Organisations 2014.
Catalytic Conversion Of Alcohols To Aldehydes Or Ketones

Paragraph 0021, (2014/03/21)
Catalytic reactions are taught using air or oxygen for oxidative chemical conversion of primary alcohols to aldehydes and for secondary alcohols to ketones in a vapor phase at ambient pressure. The catalytic process converts ethanol to acetaldehyde, n-propanol to propionaldehyde, 2-propanol to acetone, and other alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. The catalysts are based on molecular strings of di-, tri- and/or poly-groups of transition metal complexes possessing a specific degree of symmetry. Laboratory results have demonstrated [vanadium (II)]2, [chromium (II)]2, [manganese (II)]2, [cobalt (II)]2 oxalate and symmetric transition metal catalysts to be effective for oxidative catalytic conversion of primary alcohols to products comprising related aldehydes and secondary alcohols to products comprising ketones.

experimental part, p. 556 - 560 (2012/02/03)
Ionic liquids on ordered mesoporous silica were prepared and their catalytic performance in the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) was investigated. The ionic liquids were immobilized on chloropropyl-functionalized MCM-41 (CP-MS41) through the quaternization of trialkylamines. The supported ionic liquids were proven to be an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of DMC from transesterification of ethylene carbonate (EC) with methanol. The immobilized quaternary ammonium salt (QCl-MS41) catalysts with longer alkyl chains showed higher EC conversion and turnover number (TON). Higher temperatures and longer reaction times were favorable for the reactivity of QCl-MS41. However, carbon dioxide pressure showed a maximum for catalytic activity. The catalyst can be reused for reactions in up to three consecutive runs with only a slight decrease in catalytic activity.
