SiO2负载的Au-Ni双金属催化剂在乙炔选择加氢反应中的应用

负载型Au催化剂在乙炔选择加氢反应中表现出很高的乙烯选择性,但其转化率相对较低.通过添加第二种金属如Pd,Fe,Ag和Cu等,制备双金属催化剂是提高其在加氢反应中催化活性的一种非常有效的手段.其中Au-Pd双金属催化剂是最受关注的体系之一,Pd的加入可以非常显著地提高其催化乙炔选择加氢反应的活性.据文献报道,与Pd同一主族的Ni也具有较好的加氢活性.尽管与Pd相比,Ni很难与Au形成合金,但目前已有Au-Ni双金属催化剂在多种反应中表现出协同效应的报道,如水气变换、CO氧化以及芳香硝基化合物选择加氢等.因此,向Au催化剂中添加Ni也可能提高催化剂在乙炔选择加氢反应中的催化活性.因此,我们采用两步法制备了一系列SiO2负载的具有不同Ni:Au原子比的Au-Ni双金属催化剂,并将其用于乙炔选择加氢反应,发现Au-Ni双金属催化剂在该反应中表现出了显著的协同效应,其活性明显优于相应单金属催化剂的活性.尽管其乙烯选择性略低于单金属Au催化剂,但明显高于单金属Ni催化剂.通过调节还原温度和/或Ni:Au的比例,对催化剂的性能进行了优化.结果显示,当Ni:Au=0.5时,催化剂表现出最优的综合性能,即兼具较高的乙炔转化率和乙烯选择性.为了研究Au-Ni双金属催化剂中金属纳米粒子的结构、组成以及Au-Ni之间的相互作用,我们对催化剂进行了X射线衍射(XRD)、高分辨透射电镜(HRTEM)、能量散射谱(EDS)以及原位红外光谱(DRIFTS)表征.XRD和TEM结果显示,催化剂中的Au-Ni双金属纳米粒子都具有高分散和粒径均匀的特点.通过EDS分析,发现在Au-Ni双金属催化剂中的单个金属纳米粒子同时含有Au和Ni两种元素,尽管每个纳米粒子中Ni:Au的比例有差异.HRTEM结果发现,Au-Ni双金属纳米粒子的晶格间距介于Au(111)和Ni(111)的晶面间距之间,说明在Au-Ni双金属催化剂中有Au-Ni合金形成.原位DRIFTS结果显示,在Au-Ni双金属催化剂中,Au的存在促进了Ni的还原,说明Au与Ni之间存在紧密的相互作用.综上可见,Au和Ni在乙炔选择加氢反应中所表现出的协同效应主要归功于Au-Ni合金的形成,其中金属态Ni起主要的活性作用,而Au的存在则提高了催化剂的乙烯选择性.

IB金属对Ni/SiO2催化剂乙炔选择性加氢反应性能的影响

乙烯是合成聚乙烯的原料,其主要来源是石油裂解气,其中少量的乙炔杂质会严重毒化生产聚乙烯的催化剂,因此需要将其去除.对于乙炔选择加氢反应,传统工业上使用的是Pd基催化剂,尽管其乙炔转化率很高,但对乙烯的选择性很低.我们前期的研究发现,IB族金属(Au,Ag和Cu)与Pd形成的合金单原子催化剂可以有效地提高乙烯的选择性.作为与Pd同组的非贵金属,Ni催化剂在多种催化加氢反应中显示出优异活性,而在乙炔选择加氢反应中,Ni是否能够替代贵金属Pd尚无定论.本文系统地研究了IB金属对Ni/SiO2催化剂乙炔选择性加氢性能的影响.与Pd/SiO2催化剂不同,单金属Ni/SiO2催化剂在低温下不具有活性.将IB金属添加到Ni/SiO2催化剂中,可以显著提高其催化活性以及对乙烯的选择性.其中,AuNix/SiO2和CuNix/SiO2催化剂的催化活性随还原温度升高而提高,而AgNix/SiO2催化剂对预处理温度不敏感.通过调变IB/Ni原子比和还原温度优化了催化剂的催化性能,发现优化后的三种催化剂(CuNi0.125/SiO2、AgNi0.5/SiO2和AuNi0.5/SiO2)的活性和选择性随反应温度升高表现出相似的变化趋势.催化稳定性考察结果显示,CuNi0.125/SiO2催化剂表现出最高选择性和稳定性;尽管AuNi0.5/SiO2的初始活性最高,但是稳定性最低.采用XRD、TPR和微量吸附量热等表征手段对不同IB金属对Ni基催化剂性质的影响进行了系统考察.以Cu-Nix/SiO2催化剂为例,H2-TPR测试结果表明,Cu-Ni双金属纳米颗粒的形成使得还原温度低于相应的单金属催化剂,表明铜和镍之间存在明显的相互作用.此外,通过TPR获得的CuNix/SiO2催化剂上的氢气消耗量与理论耗氢量相吻合,表明在还原处理的过程中双金属催化剂中的CuO和NiO可以被完全还原.乙炔的微量吸附量热结果表明,在CuNi0.125/SiO2,AgNi0.5/SiO2,AuNi0.5/SiO2和Ni0.5/SiO2催化剂上的初始吸附热分别为187,196,304和103 kJ/mol,即它们的初始乙炔吸附强度顺序为AuNi0.5/SiO2>AgNi0.5/SiO2>CuNi0.125/SiO2>Ni0.5/SiO2.该结果与三者的初始催化活性顺序一致,表明IB金属的加入可以增强乙炔在催化剂表面的吸附,从而提高催化活性.

Cyclotrimerization of acetylene by the tris(acetylacetonato)titanium(III)–diethylaluminum chloride system

Reaction of acetylene with tris(acetylacetonato)titanium(III) and diethylaluminum chloride system leads to formation of benzene, a trace of ethylbenzene, and a small amount of polyacetylene. The isotopic composition of products obtained from cyclotrimerization of acetylene-d₂ and an equimolar mixture of acetylene and acetylene-d₂ is investigated to elucidate the mechanism of the cyclotrimerization. The results suggest a mechanism in which an acetylene inserts into the metal—ethyl bond formed by reaction of Ti(acac)₃ and Al(C₂H₅)₂Cl, followed by insertion of two acetylene molecules and elimination of a hydrogen atom from the first inserted acetylene to yield an ethylbenzene and a metal hydride intermediate. The metal hydride intermediate catalyzes acetylene cyclotrimerization to give benzene. During the reaction, the hydrogen atom in the metal hydride intermediate does not exchange with the hydrogen atom in the inserted acetylene molecules.     

Acetylene cyclotrimerization catalyzed by TiO2 and VO2 in the gas phase: a DFT study

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used to investigate acetylene cyclotrimerization catalyzed by titanium and vanadium dioxides. The calculated results illustrate that the overall process is highly favorable at room temperature from both thermodynamic and kinetic points of view. The mechanism of C2H2 cyclotrimerization over MO2 (M = Ti, V) can be understood as four steps: (1) a four-membered ring (-O-M-C=C-) formation that coordinates and activates the first C2H2 molecule; (2) the second C2H2 insertion into the M-C bond to form a six-membered ring (-O-M-C=C-C=C-); (3) the third C2H2 insertion into the M-C bond to form an eight-membered ring (-O-M-C=C-C=C-C=C-); and (4) contraction of the eight-membered ring and benzene formation and desorption. All of the reaction steps are overall barrierless with respect to the separated reactants (MO2C2xH2x + C2H2, x = 0, 1, 2). This theoretical study predicts that the M=O double bond in MO2 is very catalytic toward the C2H2 cyclotrimerization. The metal center in this study can be considered always in the same +4 oxidation state (Ti4+ and V4+). In contrast, two-electron cycling of the metal center is present in the documented mechanism for the C2H2 cyclotrimerization. The C2H2 cyclotrimerization over the Ti atom and TiO molecule is also studied, and the documented mechanism applies in this case. The new mechanism is suggested to apply to reactions using titanium and vanadium oxides as catalysts.

Acetylene cyclotrimerization by early second-row transition metals in the gas phase. A theoretical study

The acetylene cyclotrimerization reaction mediated by the left-hand-side bare transition metal atoms Y, Zr, Nb, and Mo has been studied theoretically, employing DFT in its B3LYP formulation. The complete reaction mechanism has been analyzed, identifying intermediates and transition states. Both the ground spin state and at least one low-lying excited state have been considered to establish whether possible spin crossings between surfaces of different multiplicity can occur. Our results show that the overall reaction is highly favorable from a thermodynamic point of view and ground state transition states lie always below the energy limit represented by ground state reactants. After the activation of two acetylene molecules and formation of a bis-ligated complex, the reaction proceeds to give a metallacycle intermediate, as the alternative formation of a cyclobutadiene complex is energetically disfavored. All the examined reaction paths involve formation of a metallacycloheptatriene intermediate that in turn generates a metal-benzene adduct from which finally benzene is released. Similarities and differences in the behaviors of the considered four metal atoms have been examined.     

Nb(iPrNPMe2)3Fe–PMe3: A potential high reactivity heterobimetallic catalyst for acetylene cycloadditions

Alkynes cycloaddition reactions are powerful tools for constructing cyclic molecules with optimal atom efficiency, but these reactions cannot proceed at ambient temperature without transition-metal catalysts. In this work, a heterobimetallic complex featuring an Nb–Fe triple bond, Nb(ⁱPrNPMe₂)₃Fe–PMe₃, has been evaluated as the potential catalyst for acetylene cycloaddition, using density functional theory. The calculated results show that the singlet-state (i.e. ground-state) Nb(ⁱPrNPMe₂)₃Fe–PMe₃ can be applied to benzene synthesis, but is not suitable for cyclobutadiene. Benzene can be obtained easily at room temperature and is the unique product on the singlet potential surface. The irradiation of infrared-red light can drive the excitation of singlet Nb(ⁱPrNPMe₂)₃Fe–PMe₃ to its triplet state. Both benzene and cyclobutadiene can be formed on the triplet reaction potential surface due to their low energy barriers. Therefore, Nb(ⁱPrNPMe₂)₃Fe–PMe₃ is a potential high reactivity heterobimetallic catalyst for the cyclotrimerization of alkynes. In the reaction process, the catalytic active site of Nb(ⁱPrNPMe₂)₃Fe–PMe₃ moves from niobium to iron.     

Indenyl Effect Due to Metal Slippage? Computational Exploration of Rhodium‐Catalyzed Acetylene [2+2+2] Cyclotrimerization

The mechanism of CpRh (Cp=cyclopentadienyl) and IndRh (Ind=indenyl)‐catalyzed acetylene [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization has been revisited aiming at finding an explanation for the better performance of the latter catalyst found experimentally. The hypothesis that an ancillary ligand of the precatalyst remains bonded to the metal center throughout the whole catalytic cycle, based on the experimental evidence that the nature of this ligand can exert some control in cocyclotrimerization of different alkynes, is considered. Strong hapticity variations occur in both the CpRh‐ and IndRh‐catalyzed processes. As the Ind ligand undergoes a more facile slippage than Cp, the energy profile is far smoother in the IndRh‐catalyzed cyclotrimerization. This difference in the energetics of the process translates into an enhanced activity of the IndRh catalyst, in nice agreement with experiment.

Mechanism for the cyclotrimerization of alkynes and related reactions catalyzed by CpRuCl

A complete catalytic cycle for the cyclotrimerization of acetylene with the CpRuCl fragment has been proposed and discussed based on DFT/B3LYP calculations, which revealed a couple of uncommon intermediates. The first is a metallacyclopentatriene complex RuCp(Cl)(C(4)H(4)) (B), generated through oxidative coupling of two alkyne ligands. It adds another alkyne in eta(2) fashion to give an alkyne complex (C). No less than three successive intermediates could be located for the subsequent arene formation. The first, an unusual five- and four-membered bicyclic ring system (D), rearranges to a very unsymmetrical metallaheptatetraene complex (E), which in turn provides CpRuCl(eta(2)-C(6)H(6)) (F) via a reductive elimination step. The asymmetry of E, including Cp ring slippage, removes the symmetry-forbidden character from this final step. Completion of the cycle is achieved by an exothermic displacement (21.4 kcal mol(-)(1)) of the arene by two acetylene molecules regenerating A. In addition to acetylene, the reaction of B with ethylene and carbon disulfide, the latter taken as a model for a molecule lacking hydrogen atoms, has also been investigated, and several parallels noted. In the case of the coordinated alkene, facile C-C coupling to the alpha carbon of the metallacycle is feasible due to an agostic assistance, which tends to counterbalance the reduced degree of unsaturation. Carbon disulfide, on the other hand, does not coordinate to ruthenium, but a C=S bond adds instead directly to the Ru=C bond. The final products of the reactions of B with acetylene, ethylene, and carbon disulfide are, respectively, benzene, cyclohexadiene, and thiopyrane-2-thione, the activation energies being lower for acetylene.
