Hydrogenation of fructose on Ru/C catalysts
Heinen, Annemieke W,Peters, Joop A,Van Bekkum, Herman
, p. 449 - 457 (2000)
The hydrogenation of D-fructose on Ru/C catalysts was studied. Under the conditions applied (1 bar H2, 72 °C), the furanose forms of D-fructose react, while the pyranose forms do not. However, all anomers adsorb with comparable strength on the surface. The reaction rate is controlled by product inhibition. The selectivity to D-mannitol can be increased from 47 to 63% by promotion of Pd/C and Pt/C catalysts with Sn. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Sugar alcohols are of great importance for the food industry and are promising building blocks for bio-based polymers. Industrially, they are produced by heterogeneous hydrogenation of sugars with H2, usually with none to low stereoselectivities. Now, we present a homogeneous system based on commercially available components, which not only increases the overall yield, but also allows a wide range of unprotected ketoses to be diastereoselectively hydrogenated. Furthermore, the system is reliable on a multi-gram scale allowing sugar alcohols to be isolated in large quantities at high atom economy.

Isosorbide is a versatile chemical intermediate for the production of a variety of drugs, chemicals, and polymers, and its efficient production from natural cellulose is of great significance. In this study, bifunctional catalysts based on niobium phosphates were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method and used for the direct conversion of cellulose to isosorbide under aqueous conditions. NH3-TPD analysis showed that a high acid content existed on the catalyst surface, and pyridine infrared spectroscopic analysis confirmed the presence of both Lewis acid and Br?nsted acid sites, both of which played an important role in the process of carbohydrate conversion. XRD and H2-TPR characterization determined the composition and the hydrogenation centers of the catalyst. An isosorbide yield of 47% could be obtained at 200 °C for 24 h under 3 MPa H2 pressure. The Ni/NbOPO4 bifunctional catalyst retains most of its activity after five consecutive runs with slightly decreased isosorbide yield of 44%. In addition, a possible reaction mechanism was proposed that the synergistic effect of surface acid sites and hydrogenation sites was favorable to enhancing the cascade dehydration and hydrogenation reactions during the conversion of cellulose to isosorbide. This study provides as an efficient strategy for the development of novel multifunctional heterogeneous catalysts for the one-pot valorisation of cellulose. This journal is

Selective conversion of cellulose into high value-added C3 chemicals is a great challenge in biorefinery due to the complicated reaction process. In this work, 61.6% yield of acetol was obtained by one pot conversion of cellulose using Ni-Sn/SiO2 catalysts. A series of characterization methods including TEM, STEM-HAADF, EDS, AAS, XRD, XPS, H2-TPR, Py-FTIR, and CO2-TPD were carried out to explore the structure-activity relationship. The strong basicity of the catalysts was a key factor affecting the production of acetol. In addition, catalysts with the hydrothermally stable L-acid sites and no B-acid sites inhibited side reactions and ensured efficient conversion of cellulose into small molecules. Further studies showed that the formation of the Ni3Sn4 alloy significantly promoted the acetol production, and its weak hydrogenation activity inhibited further conversion of acetol. Noninteger valence tin species (Snδ+ and SnOx) were formed both in Ni3Sn4 and Sn/SiO2. These Sn species were the source of basic sites and the active sites for catalyzing cellulose to acetol. Under the synergistic catalysis of Sn/SiO2 and the Ni3Sn4 alloy, cellulose was efficiently converted into acetol. This work provides guidance for the selective conversion of cellulose into C3 products.

Production of linear deoxygenated C4 (butanetriols, -diols, and butanols), C5 (pentanetetraols, -triols, -diols, and pentanols), and C6 products (hexanepentaols, -tetraols, -triols, -diols, and hexanols) is achievable by hydrogenolysis of erythritol, xylitol, and sorbitol over supported-bimetallic Rh-ReOx (Re/Rh molar ratio 0.5) catalyst, respectively. After validation of the analytical methodology, the effect of some reaction parameters was studied. In addition to C–O bond cleavage by hydrogenolysis, these polyols can undergo parallel reactions such as epimerization, cyclic dehydration, and C–C bond cleavage. The time courses of each family of linear deoxygenated C4, C5, and C6 products confirmed that the sequence of appearance of the different categories of deoxygenated products followed a multiple sequential deoxygenation pathway. The highest selectivity to a mixture of linear deoxygenated C4, C5, and C6 products at 80percent conversion was favoured under high pressure in the presence of 3.7wt.percentRh-3.5wt.percentReOx/ZrO2 catalysts (54–71percent under 80 bar) at 200 °C.

Lucas, Martin,Fabi?ovicová, Katarina,Claus, Peter
, p. 612 - 618 (2017/12/28)
In this work, we describe a catalytic material based on a zirconium–tungsten oxide with ruthenium for the hydrogenolysis of microcrystalline cellulose under hydrothermal conditions. With these catalysts, polyols can be produced with high yields. High and stable polyol yields were also achieved in recycling tests. A catalyst with 4.5 wt % ruthenium in total achieved a carbon efficiency of almost 100 %. The prepared Zr-W oxide is mesoporous and largely stable under hydrothermal conditions (493 K and 65 bar hydrogen). Decomposition into the components ZrO2 and WO3 could be observed at temperatures of 1050 K in air.

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) were submitted to liquid-phase chemical treatments using HNO3 and subsequently to gas-phase thermal treatments to incorporate different sets of oxygenated groups on the surface. The modified CNT were used as supports for 0.4 wt % Ru in the direct conversion of ball-milled cellulose to sorbitol and high conversions were reached after 3 h at 205 °C. Ru supported on the original CNT, although less active, was the most selective catalyst for the one-pot process (70 % sorbitol selectivity after 2 h). Unlike the one-pot process, the support acidity greatly promoted the rate of cellulose hydrolysis (35 % increase after 2 h) and the glucose selectivity (12 % increase after 2 h). The rate of glucose hydrogenation was almost not affected by the support modification. However, the catalyst acidity improved the sorbitol selectivity from glucose. The support acidity was a central factor for the one-pot conversion of cellulose, as well as for the individual hydrolysis and hydrogenation steps, and the original CNT supported Ru catalyst was the most efficient and selective catalyst for the direct conversion of cellulose to sorbitol.
