Fabrication of non-noble metal-based heterogeneous catalysts by a facile and cost-effective strategy for ecofriendly catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) is of great significance for organic transformations. A cobalt@nitrogen-doped carbon (Co@NC) catalyst was prepared from renewable biomass-derived sucrose, harmless melamine, and earth-abundant Co(AcO)2 as the precursor materials by hydrothermal treatment and carbonization. Co nanoparticles (NPs) were coated with NC shells and uniformly embedded in the NC framework. The as-obtained Co@NC-600 (carbonized at 600 °C) catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic efficiency for CTH of various functionalized nitroarenes with formic acid (FA) as hydrogen donor in aqueous solution. The uniformly incorporated N atoms in the C matrix and the encapsulated Co NPs showed synergistic effects in the CTH reactions. A mechanistic analysis indicated that the protons from FA were activated by Co sites after being captured by N atoms, and then reacted with nitroarenes adsorbed on the surface of the catalysts to generate the corresponding aromatic amines. Moreover, the catalyst showed excellent durability and reusability without obvious decrease in activity even after five reaction cycles. Thus, the study reported herein provides a cost-effective, sustainable strategy for fabrication of biomass-derived non-noble metal-based catalysts for green and efficient catalytic transformations.

A stereocomplexed poly(lactic acid)-polyethyleneglycol copolymer was synthesized and successfully used as recyclable support for Pt nanoparticles, generated by the metal vapor synthesis technique. The confinement of the Pt nanoparticles were determined by thermal analysis. Hydrogenation reactions of chlorinated aromatic nitro compounds, containing other reducible functional groups, to the corresponding anilines occurred with the latter supported Pt nanoparticles in MeOH under very mild reaction conditions (i.e. 30?°C, p(H2)?=?5.0?bar). The covalently attached polyethyleneglycol polymer significantly increased the catalytic activity of the supported Pt nanoparticles compared to an analogous catalytic system which did not contain polyethyleneglycol but the same sized Pt nanoparticles.
Gold supported on titania for specific monohydrogenation of dinitroaromatics in the liquid phase

Liquid-phase selective monohydrogenation of various substituted dinitroaromatics to the corresponding valuable nitroanilines was investigated on gold-based catalysts. Special attention was paid to the effect of Au particle size on this monoreduction reaction. Interestingly, TiO2 supported gold catalysts containing a relatively larger mean Au particle size (>5 nm) showed far superior chemoselectivity for specific mono-hydrogenation of dinitroaromatics, with the highest performance attainable for the catalyst bearing Au particles of ca. 7.5 nm. Results in the intermolecular competitive hydrogenation showed that the intrinsic higher accumulation rates of the desired nitroanilines associated with the catalyst possessing larger Au particles were responsible for the high chemoselectivity observed. the Partner Organisations 2014.
