Heavy oil transportation has become a highly technical operation facing complex difficulties. One of the major difficulties in the pipeline transportation is the high viscosity that requires efficient and economical ways to deal with. The typical polymer viscosity reducers are a negative problem during oil refinement process for their chemical properties. The objective of this study is to seek small molecular compound, different from the traditional polymers, to reduce the viscosity of the crude oil. In this work, a spirocompound, 3,9-diphenyl-2,4,8,10-tetraoxa-spiro[ 5.5 ]undecane, was synthesized catalyzed by zeolite and modified zeolite, and the product was fully characterized by NMR, MS, and TG. Then, it was used as viscosity reducer for crude oil. The factors such as dosage and temperature on the viscosity behavior have been studied. The results showed a significant viscosity reduction at different temperature, and the most economical dosage is 500 ppm. The multiphenyl groups can interact with asphaltene by π - π stacking, and the spirostructure can fix the stacking in different direction, which can prevent the agglomeration of wax crystals.
Novel synthesis method of ester free trimethylene carbonate derivatives

, p. 164 - 170 (2019/01/04)
Ester free poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC) derivatives show biocompatibility and biodegradability and do not generate any acidic compounds after decomposition. Their syntheses methods are limited however, hampering their material application. Herein, we established a novel synthesis route of ester free trimethylene carbonate (TMC) derivatives. The novel synthesis route was described using six aldehydes and one ketone as starting compounds. The key reaction is the selective deprotection from two protected hydroxyl groups in the cyclic acetal structure by diisobutylaluminium hydride. This novel synthesis route means that it is possible to convert aldehyde group to ether groups in the side chain of TMC. Conventionally, only a substituent derived from a primary alcohol was introduced into the side chain. We therefore succeeded in decreasing the number of reaction steps from five to three, compared with the conventional route. Furthermore, the development of a novel synthesis route enabled the introduction of substituents derived from secondary alcohols, anticipating the creation of further types of ester free TMC derivatives.

Single-crystalline sponge-like MFI mesoporous zeolites (SSMZs) have been synthesized by using bolaform surfactants with an axial chiral binaphthyl core in the hydrophobic tail and triquaternary ammonium head groups, as bifunctional organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs). By changing the length of alkyl chain between a triquaternary ammonium head group and a binaphthyl group from 4 to 10 carbons, SSMZs with high specific surface area (382–434 m2 g?1), abundant micropore-mesopore connectivity, and uniform mesopore diameter (4–10 nm) were obtained. OSDAs with an alkyl chain length of 11 and 12 carbons led to the formation of nanorod-constructed mesoporous MFI zeolites. A geometrical matching between the cylindrical arrangement of the binaphthyl groups and the zeolitic framework is speculated to be the key factor for the formation of mesoporous zeolites. The SSMZ zeolites, with abundant mesopores beneficial for the diffusion of reactants, exhibited significantly higher catalytic efficiencies than those of the conventional ZSM-5 with a microcrystal morphology (≈1.5 μm).
From organocatalysed desilylations to high-yielding benzylidenations of electron-deficient benzaldehydes

A new type of organoprecatalyst (MeSCH2Cl/KI) for desilylation and benzylidenation reactions has been designed. Both reactions are user friendly and high yielding (71->99%) and have fast reaction rates. The desilylation of iodo silyl ethers was achieved with no sequential etherification side reactions like those seen for reactions when using TBAF. In the application of the catalytic system to a 6-TBDMS ether of a glucoside, glucoside benzylidenations using electron-deficient benzaldehydes were achieved in 87% yield compared with the previously reported yields of 69-77%. Altogether, 14 benzylidenation reactions were realised using silyloxy alcohols and electrondeficient benzaldehydes instead of their activated acetal forms. In terms of reaction rates and yields, the order of the benzylidenations is p-fluorobenzaldehyde > benzaldehyde > p-anisaldehyde, and a possible mechanism is discussed. These experiments have preliminarily differentiated this cost-effective catalytic system from the classic Lewis acids.

The relatively small and sole micropores in zeolite catalysts strongly influence the mass transfer and catalytic conversion of bulky molecules. We report here aluminosilicate zeolite ZSM-5 single crystals with b-axis-aligned mesopores, synthesized using a designed cationicamphiphilic copolymer as a mesoscale template. This sample exhibits excellent hydrothermal stability. The orientation of the mesopores was confirmed by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. More importantly, the b-axis-aligned mesoporous ZSM-5 shows much higher catalytic activities for bulky substrate conversion than conventional ZSM-5 and ZSM-5 with randomly oriented mesopores. The combination of good hydrothermal stability with high activities is important for design of novel zeolite catalysts. The b-axis-aligned mesoporous ZSM-5 reported here shows great potential for industrial applications.
Acetalation of pentaerithritol catalyzed by an Al-pillared saponite
Kannan,Sreekumar,Gil,Vicente
experimental part, p. 1118 - 1122 (2012/06/18)
Acetalation of pentaerithritol has been carried out in the presence of an Al-pillared saponite. Several carbonyl compounds were used, including aldehydes and ketones. Yields between 72 and 93% were obtained in all cases, except in the case of veratraldehyde where the carbonyl group was blocked. The high conversion could be explained by diffusion effects of intermediates and electronic effects between the reactants in the transition state. The catalyst was found to be active after three cycles.

The efficient, simple and environmentally friendly synthesis of pentaerythritol diacetals and diketals using SO3H-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) as catalysts was reported. The ILs showed high catalytic activities and reusabilities with good to excellent yields of the desired products. H0 (Hammett function) values and the minimum-energy geometries of SO3H-functionalized ILs were determined and the results revealed that the acidities and catalytic activities of ILs in acetalization were related to their structures. The IL [PSPy][OTf] with the shortest H-O bond distance had the strongest acidity and the highest catalytic activity in the synthesis of pentaerythritol diacetals and diketals.

In this article, an efficient, simple and environmentally friendly approach to the synthesis of diacetals (diketals) pentaerythritol using SO3H-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) as catalysts was reported. The ILs show high catalytic activity and reusability with good to excellent yields of the desired products. Hammett method has been used to determine the acidity order of these ionic liquids and the results are consistent with the catalytic activities observed in acetalization reaction. Maximum product yield of 93% was observed on using [PSPy][OTf] as catalyst and it can be reused at least 8 times without obvious activity loss.
