Synthesis of a pentasil-type zeolite with ultra-small few-unit-cell crystalline domains, which we call FDP (few-unit-cell crystalline domain pentasil), is reported. FDP is made using bis-1,5(tributyl ammonium) pentamethylene cations as structure directing agent (SDA). This di-quaternary ammonium SDA combines butyl ammonium, in place of the one commonly used for MFI synthesis, propyl ammonium, and a five-carbon nitrogen-connecting chain, in place of the six-carbon connecting chain SDAs that are known to fit well within the MFI pores. X-ray diffraction analysis and electron microscopy imaging of FDP indicate ca. 10 nm crystalline domains organized in hierarchical micro-/meso-porous aggregates exhibiting mesoscopic order with an aggregate particle size up to ca. 5 μm. Al and Sn can be incorporated into the FDP zeolite framework to produce active and selective methanol-to-hydrocarbon and glucose isomerization catalysts, respectively.

(NH4)5H6PV8Mo4O40 supported on hydroxyapatite (HAP) (PMo4V8/HAP (n)) was prepared through the ion exchange of hydroxy groups. This ion exchange favored the oxidative conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) to 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) in a one-pot cascade reaction with 96.0 % conversion and 83.8 % yield under 10 mL/min of O2 flow. PMo4V8/HAP (31) was used to explore the production of DFF directly from glucose with the highest yield of 47.9 % so far under atmospheric oxygen, whereas the yield of DFF increased to 54.7 % in a one-pot and two-step reaction. These results indicated that the active sites in PMo4V8/HAP (31) retained their activities without any interference toward one another, which enabled the production of DFF in a more cost-saving way by only using oxygen and one catalyst in a one-step reaction. Meanwhile, the rigid structure of HAP and strong interaction in PMo4V8/HAP (31) allowed this catalyst to be reused for at least six times with high stability and duration.

, p. 4807 - 4816 (2020/08/24)
Bio-refinery is attracting significant interest to produce a wide range of renewable chemicals and fuels from biomass that are alternative to fossil fuel derived petrochemicals. Similar to petrochemical industries, bio-refinery also depends on solid zeolite catalysts. Acid-base catalysis plays pivotal role in producing a wide range of chemicals from biomass. Herein, the Mg framework substituted MTW zeolite is synthesized and explored in the valorisation of glucose and furfural. Bi-functional (acidic and basic) characteristics are confirmed using pyridine adsorbed FT?IR analysis and NH3 and CO2 temperature-programmed desorption techniques. Textural properties and morphological information are retrieved from N2-sorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron microscopy. The activity of the catalyst is demonstrated in the selective isomerisation of glucose to fructose in ethanol. Glucose is converted to methyl lactate in high yield using the same catalyst. Further, the bi-functional activity of this catalyst is demonstrated in the production of fuel precursor by the reaction of furfural and isopropanol. Mg?MTW zeolite exhibits excellent activity in the production of all these chemicals and fuel derivative. The catalyst exhibits no significant loss in the activity even after five recycles. One simple catalyst affording three renewable synthetic intermediates from glucose and furfural will attract significant attention to catalysis researchers and industrialists.

Paragraph 0012-0013; 0016-0018; 0035-0037; 0038, (2020/08/25)
Processes for converting glucose to sorbose with tailored selectivity. The processes include contacting glucose with a silica-containing structure that includes a zeolite having a topology of a 10-membered ring or smaller and Lewis acidic M4+ framework centers, wherein M is Ti, Sn, Zr, or Hf. Contacting the glucose is conducted under reaction conditions sufficient to isomerize the glucose to sorbose.
Characterization of alditol oxidase from Streptomyces coelicolor and its application in the production of rare sugars

, (2020/04/10)
A synthetic platform for the cascade synthesis of rare sugars using Escherichia coli whole cells was established. In the cascade, the donor substrate dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) was generated from glycerol by glycerol kinase (GK) and glycerol phosphate oxidase (GPO). The acceptor D-glyceraldehyde was directly produced from glycerol by an alditol oxidase. Then, the aldol reaction between DHAP and D-glyceraldehyde was performed by L-rhamnulose-1-phosphate aldolase (RhaD) to generate the corresponding sugar-1-phosphate. Finally, the phosphate group was removed by fructose-1-phosphatase (YqaB) to obtain the rare sugars D-sorbose and D-psicose. To accomplish this goal, the alditol oxidase from Streptomyces coelicolor (AldOS.coe) was expressed in E. coli and the purified AldOS.coe was characterized. Furthermore, a recombinant E. coli strain overexpressing six enzymes including AldOS.coe was constructed. Under the optimized conditions, it produced 7.9 g/L of D-sorbose and D-psicose with a total conversion rate of 17.7% from glycerol. This study provides a useful and cost-effective method for the synthesis of rare sugars.

D-Ribulose and L-fuculose are potentially valuable rare sugars useful for anticancer and antiviral drugs in the agriculture and medicine industries. These rare sugars are usually produced by chemical methods, which are generally expensive, complicated and do not meet the increasing demands. Furthermore, the isomerization of D-arabinose and L-fucose byDD-arabinose and L-fucose by D-arabinose isomerase from bacterial sources for the production of D-ribulose and L-fuculose have not yet become industrial due to the shortage of biocatalysts, resulting in poor yield and high cost of production. In this study, a thermostable D-ribulose- and L-fuculose producing D-arabinose isomerase from the bacterium Thermanaeromonas toyohensis was characterized. The recombinant D-arabinose isomerase from T. toyohensis (Thto-DaIase) was purified with a single band at 66 kDa using His-trap affinity chromatography. The native enzyme existed as a homotetramer with a molecular weight of 310 kDa, and the specific activities for both D-arabinose and L-fucose were observed to be 98.08 and 85.52 U mg?1, respectively. The thermostable recombinant Thto-DaIase was activated when 1 mM Mn2+ was added to the reactions at an optimum pH of 9.0 at 75 °C and showed approximately 50% activity for both D-arabinose and L-fucose at 75 °C after 10 h. The Michaelis-Menten constant (Km), the turnover number (kcat) and catalytic efficiency (kcat/Km) for D-arabinose/L-fucose were 111/81.24 mM, 18,466/10,688 min?1, and 166/132 mM?1 min?1, respectively. When the reaction reached to equilibrium, the conversion rates of D-ribulose from D-arabinose and L-fuculose from L-fucose were almost 27% (21 g L?1) and 24.88% (19.92 g L?1) from 80 g L?1 of D-arabinose and L-fucose, respectively.
