Selective hydrogenation of lignin-derived compounds under mild conditions

A key challenge in the production of lignin-derived chemicals is to reduce the energy intensive processes used in their production. Here, we show that well-defined Rh nanoparticles dispersed in sub-micrometer size carbon hollow spheres, are able to hydrogenate lignin derived products under mild conditions (30 °C, 5 bar H2), in water. The optimum catalyst exhibits excellent selectivity and activity in the conversion of phenol to cyclohexanol and other related substrates including aryl ethers.

Selective Catalytic Hydrogenation of Arenols by a Well-Defined Complex of Ruthenium and Phosphorus-Nitrogen PN3-Pincer Ligand Containing a Phenanthroline Backbone

Selective catalytic hydrogenation of aromatic compounds is extremely challenging using transition-metal catalysts. Hydrogenation of arenols to substituted tetrahydronaphthols or cyclohexanols has been reported only with heterogeneous catalysts. Herein, we demonstrate the selective hydrogenation of arenols to the corresponding tetrahydronaphthols or cyclohexanols catalyzed by a phenanthroline-based PN3-ruthenium pincer catalyst.

Chemoselective Hydrogenation and Transfer Hydrogenation of Olefins and Carbonyls with the Cluster-Derived Ruthenium Nanocatalyst in Water

Ion pairing of [H3Ru4(CO)12]- with the quaternary ammonium groups of water-soluble poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) gives the precursor of a nanocatalyst for hydrogenation and transfer hydrogenation reactions in water. In hydrogenation reactions, "on water" effect is seen for substrates such as cyclohexanones, methyl pyruvate, acetophenone, and safflower oil. With these substrates, higher turnover numbers are obtained in water than in methanol. The cluster-derived catalyst shows unique chemoselectivity, which is not seen either in a catalyst prepared through ion pairing of [RuCl4]- with the quaternary ammonium groups of the same polymer or in commercial (5%) Ru/Al2O3. In contrast to Ru/Al2O3, the [RuCl4]--derived catalyst, or many other ruthenium-based catalytic systems, the cluster-derived catalyst is totally inert toward the hydrogenation of -NO2, -CN, and aromatic ring functionalities. In water, typical ketones and aldehydes could be reduced by using the cluster-derived catalyst and formate as the hydrogen donor. Industrially important cyano- and nitrobenzyl alcohols could thus be made from the corresponding aldehydes. High-resolution TEM data suggest that unique chemoselectivity is a result of highly crystalline ruthenium nanoparticles that consist mainly of Ru(111) crystal planes.
