Oxodiperoxo tungsten complex-catalyzed synthesis of adipic acid with hydrogen peroxide

An amphiphilic oxodiperoxo complex of tungsten using 8-quinolinol (QOH) as ligand has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, gravimetry, chemistry titration, TG/DSC, IR and UV-vis spectroscopy. Oxidation of cyclohexene, cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, cyclohexene oxide and 1,2-cyclohexane-diol to adipic acid in one-step was conducted by this complex catalyst using 30 wt.% hydrogen peroxide in the absence of organic solvent and phase-transfer catalyst. The effect of the reaction conditions on the oxidation of cyclohexene was studied by varying the amount of the catalyst, reaction temperature, reaction time and the amount of hydrogen peroxide. The results showed that oxodiperoxo tungsten complex with QOH as ligand could achieve 89.8% yield of adipic acid at 90°C by refluxing for 20 h.     

Redox-mediated oxidation of cyclohexanone to adipic acid on oxide-nickel anode,with active forms of oxygen involved

Redox-mediated oxidation of cyclohexanol to adipic acid on a porous anode with higher nickel oxides was studied, including the process involving active oxygen species (AOS) in situ generated from hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen in an alkaline electrolyte. It was found that the current efficiency by adipic acid grows upon addition of AOS. The selectivity of cyclohexanol oxidation to adipic acid depends on the current density, quantity of passed electricity, and method of AOS generation. It is demonstrated that use of AOS enables oxidation of cyclohexanol with a selectivity of adipic acid formation of up to 89% and its single-stage synthesis with a current efficiency of 50.2% at a current density of 22 mA cm^?2 and passing the theoretically required quantity of electricity.

Oxidations by the system ‘hydrogen peroxide-[Mn2L2O3][PF6]2 (L=1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane)-carboxylic acid’. Part 10: Co-catalytic effect of different carboxylic acids in the oxidation of cyclohexane, cyclohexanol, and acetone

Hydrogen peroxide oxidation of cyclohexane in acetonitrile solution catalyzed by the dinuclear manganese(IV) complex [LMn(O)₃MnL](PF₆)₂ (L=1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane, TMTACN) at 25 °C in the presence of a carboxylic acid affords cyclohexyl hydroperoxide as well as cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol. A kinetic study of the reactions with participation of three acids (acetic acid, oxalic acid, and pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid, 2,3-PDCA) led to the following general scheme. In the first stage, the catalyst precursor forms an adduct. The equilibrium constants K₁ calculated for acetic acid, oxalic acid, and 2,3-PDCA were 127±8, (7±2)×10⁴, and 1250±50 M⁻¹, respectively. The same kinetic scheme was applied for the cyclohexanol oxidation catalyzed by the complex in the presence of oxalic acid. The oxidation of cyclohexane in water solution using oxalic acid as a co-catalyst gave cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone, which were rapidly transformed into a mixture of over-oxidation products. In the oxidation of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone, varying the concentrations of the reactants and the reaction time we were able to find optimal conditions and to obtain the cyclohexanone in 94% yield based on the starting cyclohexanol. Oxidation of acetone to acetic acid by the system containing oxalic acid was also studied.

Catalysis by heteropolyacid—VII. catalytic oxidation of cyclohexanol by dodecamolybdate

In the oxidation of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone and the further oxidation to adipic acid, a dodecamolybdo-heteropolyanion (HPA) functions catalytically in the presence of aqueous hydrogen peroxide, whereas the HPA without hydrogen peroxide reacts only stoichiometrically. Air- or oxygen-passing through the refluxing system of cyclohexanone and the HPA in the presence of active charcoal, without hydrogen peroxide, has also promoted the oxidation catalytically. Since both hydrogen peroxide and aeration in the presence of active charcoal convert the reduced-form (blue) of the HPA produced by the oxidation of substrate to the oxidized-form (yellow), they play a role as a promoter or a reoxidizing reagent for the oxidation by the HPA. The reoxidizing effect of the aqueous hydrogen peroxide is much the more effective.

The Mechanism Study on the Catalytic Synthesis of 2,6‐Dimethylphenol from KA‐Oil and Methanol over Magnesium Oxide Catalysts

Catalytic synthesis of 2,6‐dimethylphenol from KA‐oil (a mixture of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone) and methanol was achieved by using magnesium oxide‐supported chromium oxide catalysts in one step. At higher conversion (> 90%), dimethylphenol was formed in high yield (>60 %). The activity of Cr/MgO catalysts depended on the concentration of chromium. The yield of 2,6‐dimethylphenol was also affected by the composition of the ratio of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone in KA‐oil. Cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone reacting with methanol under the same conditions indicated that pure cyclohexanol or cyclohexanone is less reactive than their mixture, KA‐oil. The adsorption properties of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone on the surface of Cr/MgO determined by FT‐IR spectroscopy suggest that cyclohexanone is easily reduced to cyclohexanol by the hydrogen which formed in the reaction, and then further reacted with methanol to form 2,6‐dimethyphenol.

聚合物微球固载的催化剂TEMPO在分子氧氧化环己醇过程中的催化特性

醇氧化为羰基化合物是有机合成工业中最重要的化学转变之一,在实验室研究和精细化工生产中都占有非常重要的地位.使用传统的化学计量强氧化剂(如CrO3, KMnO4, MnO2等),不但成本高及反应条件苛刻,还会产生大量污染环境的废弃物.因此,需要大力发展高效、绿色化的醇转变为羰基化合物的氧化途径.以2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶氮氧自由基(TEMPO)为催化剂,分子氧为氧化剂,可在温和条件下绿色化地实现醇的氧化转变.该催化氧化作用的实质是TEMPO经过单电子氧化过程转化为相应的氮羰基阳离子,该阳离子是一个具有强氧化性的氧化剂,可将伯醇和仲醇分别快速地、高转化率、高选择性地氧化为对应的醛或酮.然而,目前使用的TEMPO大多为均相催化剂,虽然表现出良好的催化活性和选择性,但反应后难以分离回收,不能再循环使用,严重制约着这一催化体系的发展.本文将TEMPO化学键合在聚合物载体上,在非均相催化剂的作用下,以期实现环已醇的分子氧氧化,将其转变为环已酮.首先采用悬浮聚合法,制备了交联聚甲基丙烯酸缩水甘油酯(CPGMA)微球,该聚合物微球表面含有大量环氧基团,为实现TEMPO的固载化提供了条件.以4-羟基-2,2,6,6-四甲基哌啶氮氧自由基(4-OH-TEMPO)为试剂,使CPGMA微球表面的环氧基团发生开环反应,从而将TEMPO键合于微球表面,制得了固载有TEMPO的聚合物微球TEMPO/CPGMA.将此非均相催化剂与Fe(NO3)3组成共催化体系,应用于分子氧氧化环己醇的催化氧化过程,深入考察了该共催化体系的催化性能,并探索研究了催化氧化机理,考察了主要条件对催化氧化反应的影响.结果表明,共催化体系TEMPO/CPGMA+Fe(NO3)3可以有效地催化分子氧氧化环己醇的氧化过程,将环己醇转化为唯一的产物环己酮,显示出良好的催化选择性.助催化剂Fe(NO3)3化学结构中的Fe3+离子和NO3–离子两种物种均参与催化过程,共同发挥助催化剂的作用,伴随着两种价态铁物种Fe(Ⅱ)与Fe(Ⅲ)的转变以及NO3–与NO2–之间的转变,固载化的氮氧自由基TEMPO不断地转变为氮羰基阳离子,该氧化剂物种使环己醇的氧化反应不断地循环进行.对于共催化体系TEMPO/CPGMA+Fe(NO3)3的使用,适宜的反应条件为TEMPO与Fe(NO3)3的摩尔比为1：1,55°C,通入常压O2.反应35 h,环己酮的转化率可达到44.1%.因此,在温和条件下,使用固载化的TEMPO,有效地实现了环己醇向环己酮的转化.此外,固载化催化剂TEMPO/CPGMA在循环使用过程中表现出良好的重复使用性能.     

High effective electrocatalytic oxidation of cyclohexanol on stable Fe-Mn/Mn<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> membrane electrode

A new composite electrode material with iron-manganic oxide coating (Fe-Mn/Mn₂O₃) was prepared, and its catalytic performance for oxidizing cyclohexanol was investigated in this work. The new electrode material, based on iron substrate covered with electrolytic manganese, was obtained by further coating the manganese surface with 50 % manganese nitrate solution and then conducting program thermal decomposition treatment. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to determine the surface crystal phase compositions, which were Mn and Mn₂O₃. The catalytic results showed an excellent electrocatalytic performance on the oxidation of cyclohexanol, and the main products were cyclohexanone and hexanedioic acid. According to our experiment results and the literature reports, the existence of mixed valent Mn^III and Mn^IV played a key role in the electrocatalytic oxidation process. A probable process was proposed: the Mn^IV seized the hydrogen from cyclohexanol, the resulting cyclohexaneoxy radical was oxidized into cyclohexanone, and then the absorbed cyclohexanone was further oxidized into hexanedioic acid.     

Kinetics and mechanism of cyclohexane oxidation with molecular oxygen in the presence of propionic aldehyde

The kinetics and mechanism of the liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane with molecular oxygen in the presence of the additives of propionic aldehyde are studied at 303.0, 322.5, and 341.5 K by measuring the rates of oxygen and propionic aldehyde consumption and the yields of the main reaction products (cyclohexanol (COL), cyclohexanone (CON), cyclohexyl hydroperoxide, and propionic acid and peracid). A kinetic scheme is proposed and rate constants of elementary reactions are estimated based on the analysis of their rates and the yields of the main cyclohexane products. The key reactions of the main steps (including chain initiation, propagation, and termination) are determined. An increase in the rate of cyclohexane oxidation and the yield of the target products (cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, and cyclohexyl hydroperoxide) in the presence of propionic aldehyde suggests that highly active acylperoxy radicals participate in chain propagation. The [CON]/[COL] ratio indicates that these products are mainly formed in chain propagation. The strong effect of the Baeyer-Villiger rearrangement on both the rate of oxygen consumption and the yield of the target products at the initial stages of the process and at high propionic aldehyde concentrations is explained.     

环己酮绿色氧化合成己二酸质谱分析

己二酸是合成尼龙-66的主要原料,同时在低温润滑油、合成纤维、油漆、聚亚胺酯树脂及食品添加剂的制备等方面也有重要用途,目前己二酸的世界年产量估计已达220万吨。工业上已二酸的生产是以环己烷经两步氧化合成,第一步为环己烷在金属离子催化下用氧气氧化为环己醇、环己酮,第二步用浓HNO3氧化环己醇、环己酮制得己二酸。在第二步氧化时由于用了浓HNO3故产生大量的CO、NOx、N2O等有毒气体,其中N2O是比CO2还强310倍的温室气体。在当今普遍提倡绿色化学的时代,如何减少化工生产对环境的污染是当前化学工作者首要解决的任务。过氧化氢是一种理想的清洁氧化剂,其反应的唯一预期副产物是水,反应后处理容易,同时过氧化氢的价格相对低廉,氧化成本低。为此,许多化学工作者对环己酮绿色氧化制剂己二酸已有研究。但环己酮氧化为己二酸的反应产物的研究未见报道,本文报道环己酮氧化为己二酸的12种产物。     

Preparation and characterization of H3−2(x+y)MnxCoyPMo12O40 heteropolysalts. Application to adipic acid green synthesis from cyclohexanone oxidation with hydrogen peroxide

H_3−2(x+y)Mn_xCo_yPMo₁₂O₄₀ heteropolysalts (x + y ≤ 3/2 and x, y: 0–1.5) were prepared by a cationic exchange method based on barium sulfate precipitation. Structural and textural properties of salts were examined by several physicochemical techniques such as infrared, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray, and ³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies, X-ray diffraction diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis, and their catalytic properties were evaluated in the cyclohexanone oxidation using hydrogen peroxide (30%). The reaction products, adipic, glutaric, succinic, hexanoic, 6-hydroxyhexanoic, 7,7-dimethoxy, and heptanoic acids and 1,1-dimethoxy octane were identified by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis. Only adipic, glutaric, and succinic acids were quantified by chromatography (high-performance liquid chromatography), the other products were noted X. Adipic acid (AA) is the major product for all systems. The effects of molar ratios of catalyst/reactant and cyclohexanol/cyclohexanone, heteropolysalt composition, and reaction duration on AA yield were investigated. The stability of the catalytic system was also examined. H_3−2(x+y)Mn_xCo_yPMo₁₂O₄₀ catalysts were found to be efficient for the cyclohexanone oxidation with conversions >95%. Among them, H₁Mn_0.25Co_0.75 exhibits the highest AA yield (75%).     

Liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane. Elementary steps in the developed process,reactivity, catalysis,and problems of conversion and selectivity

The literature data concerning features of the kinetics and mechanisms of elementary steps of liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane and its oxygen derivatives are considered and analyzed. A comparison of rates of intermolecular and intramolecular reactions of cyclohexylperoxyl radicals under the industrial conditions indicated a necessity to take into account intramolecular interactions. The occurrence of cross recombination of hydroperoxyl and α-hydroxyperoxyl radicals without chain termination in the course of cyclohexanol and 2-hydroxycyclohexanol oxidation was proved. A significance of degenerate branching reactions involving cyclohexyl hydroperoxide in the industrial process of cyclohexane oxidation at 423 K was evaluated. The influence of the electron-withdrawing functional groups on the reactivity of carbon–hydrogen bonds of organic compounds in the reactions with electrophilic peroxyl radicals was studied. The low conversion of a substrate in the industrial process are mainly caused by the radicalchain oxidation of cyclohexanone leading only to by-products. The catalysts of cyclohexane oxidation, viz., compounds of variable valence metals, affect the reaction rate and ratio of the yields of the target products (cyclohexyl hydroperoxide, cyclohexanol, and cyclohexanone) but exert no effect on their relative reactivity. The use of the catalytic additives increasing the yield of cyclohexanone in the step of cyclohexane oxidation in the production of caprolactam is revealed to be inexpedient.     

Catalytic oxidation with air of cyclohexanone to dicarboxylic acids on synthetic carbons. Effect of supported metals and solvents

The oxidation with air of cyclohexanone was conducted in the presence of synthetic carbons catalysts. The effect of carbon activation treatment (CO2 or air burnoff), phosphorus additive, platinum loading, and nature of the solvent (water or water/acetic acid mixture) were studied. Cyclohexanone oxidation at 140 degrees C yielded a mixture of C6, C5, and C4 dicarboxylic acids. Air activated carbons, including those containing phosphorus or those supporting platinum, resulted in a higher yield of adipic acid. The activity and selectivity was associated with the oxygenated functional groups, essentially carbonyl/quinone groups, created during air activation of the carbon. The incorporation of phosphorus into the carbon increased slightly the selectivity to 34.3%, probably because this additive increased the density of oxygenated functional groups. The deposition of platinum by impregnation and liquid-phase reduction with formaldehyde increased the reaction rate and improved the selectivity to adipic acid, where the highest figure was 38.8%. It was suggested that platinum contributed to molecular oxygen activation. In contrast platinum deposition by cationic exchange followed by reduction under H2 resulted often in a detrimental effect probably because the density of the oxygenated groups on carbon is decreased upon H2 reduction in the presence of platinum. When the oxidation of cyclohexanone was carried out in mixtures of water/acetic acid, the selectivity given by the different samples were quite close and generally smaller than those obtained in water which indicates that acetic acid interacts with the oxygenated surface functional groups responsible for the activity and selectivity. Oxidation experiments with methyl-labeled 4-methylcyclohexanone indicated that glutaric acid was produced by oxidative decarbonylation of both the C1 and C2 carbon atoms of the molecule.
