Direct and Selective Synthesis of Adipic and Other Dicarboxylic Acids by Palladium-Catalyzed Carbonylation of Allylic Alcohols

A general and direct synthesis of dicarboxylic acids including industrially important adipic acid by palladium-catalyzed dicarbonylation of allylic alcohol is reported. Specifically, the combination of PdCl2 and a bisphosphine ligand (HeMaRaphos) promotes two different carbonylation reactions with high activity and excellent selectivity.

Controlling product selectivity by surface defects over MoOx-decorated Ni-based nanocatalysts for γ-valerolactone hydrogenolysis

Currently, highly efficient biomass upgrading over non-noble metal catalysts is of vital importance for reducing equipment and operation expenses in biorefinery industries. In this respect, the related heterogeneous catalysis demands the design and construction of mutual cooperative microstructure of catalysts to improve their catalytic performances. Here, an efficient catalytic process for selective hydrogenolysis of biomass-derived γ-valerolactone (GVL) to produce 1,4-pentanediol (1,4-PDO) and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MTHF) was developed by earth-abundant nickel-based catalysts, which were derived from a molybdate intercalated Ni-Al layered double hydroxide precursor. It was found that with the elevated reduction temperature, the amount of surface defective MoOx species (0 x/Al2O3 catalyst obtained at the reduction temperature of 600 °C delivered a 94.0% combined yield of 1,4-PDO and 2-MTHF under mild reaction conditions. It was demonstrated that over the present Ni-MoOx/Al2O3 catalyst system, surface defective MoOx species could greatly facilitate the adsorption and activation of carbonyl group in GVL and thus significantly promote the cleavage of C[dbnd]O bond and its adjacent C[sbnd]O bond. This finding opens a promising door to engineer surface defective structure of high-performance supported metal catalysts.

Efficient one-to-one coupling of easily available 1,3-dienes with carbon dioxide

An efficient one-to-one coupling reaction of atmospheric pressure carbon dioxide with 1,3-dienes is realized for the first time through PSiP-pincer type palladium-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation.

Catalytic Conversion of Cellulose to Liquid Hydrocarbon Fuels by Progressive Removal of Oxygen to Facilitate Separation Processes and Achieve High Selectivities

Described is a method to make liquid chemicals, such as functional intermediates, solvents, and liquid fuels from biomass-derived cellulose. The method is cascading; the product stream from an upstream reaction can be used as the feedstock in the next downstream reaction. The method includes the steps of deconstructing cellulose to yield a product mixture comprising levulinic acid and formic acid, converting the levulinic acid to γ-valerolactone, and converting the γ-valerolactone to pentanoic acid. Alternatively, the γ-valerolactone can be converted to a mixture of n-butenes. The pentanoic acid so formed can be further reacted to yield a host of valuable products. For example, the pentanoic acid can be decarboxylated yield 1-butene or ketonized to yield 5-nonanone. The 5-nonanone can be hydrodeoxygenated to yield nonane, or 5-nonanone can be reduced to yield 5-nonanol. The 5-nonanol can be dehydrated to yield nonene, which can be dimerized to yield a mixture of C9 and C18 olefins, which can be hydrogenated to yield a mixture of alkanes. Alternatively, the nonene may be isomerized to yield a mixture of branched olefins, which can be hydrogenated to yield a mixture of branched alkanes. The mixture of n-butenes formed from γ-valerolactone can also be subjected to isomerization and oligomerization to yield olefins in the gasoline, jet and Diesel fuel ranges.
