Engineering Chiral Catalysts through Asymmetric Activation and Super High Throughput Screening (SHTS)

A conceptually new strategy for asymmetric catalysis, namely asymmetric activation, in which a chiral activator selectively activates one enantiomer of a racemic chiral catalyst, and a highly efficient screening system for finding the most effective catalysts, namely super high throughput screening (SHTS), by which the reaction can be conducted in parallel and the ee% of the product is allowed to determine within minutes, are summarized in the present account. It is reasonable to believe that SHTS technique combined with asymmetric activation or deactivation principle will provide a very powerful methodology for finding the new catalysts and the best catalyst tuning for asymmetric reactions.     

Deactivation of jack bean urease in urea hydrolysis

Deactivation studies of jack bean urease immobilized on porous alumina beads in the hydrolysis of urea were conducted in a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) at a temperature of 25°C and pH 7.0. Though the mechanism of poisoning of urease by product ammonia is fairly well understood from the literature, the nature of the poisoning of urease by urea is presented in this article. These studies were conducted by adsorbing the ammonia formed in the hydrolysis reaction. The results indicate that, in the presence of the adsorbent Zeolite W, the deactivation rate is reduced by a factor of almost two, and thus provide a technique for prolonging the life of the enzyme. The deactivation model suggests that the free form of the enzyme is most susceptible to attack by the substrate urea. The experimental data suggest that deactivation by combined ammonia and urea is fairly complex.     

Statistical models of diffusion and aggregation for coke formation in a catalyst pore

We simulated models of diffusion and aggregation in long pores of small widths in order to represent the basic mechanisms of coke deposition in catalysts’ pores. Coke precursors are represented by particles injected at the pore entrance. Knudsen diffusion, which is usually expected inside the pores, is modeled by ballistic motion of those particles. The regime of molecular diffusion is also analyzed via models of lattice random walks biased along the pores. The aggregation at the surface or near previously aggregated particles was modeled by different probabilistic rules, accounting for the possibilities of more compact or more ramified deposits. In the model of Knudsen diffusion and in some cases of molecular diffusion, there is an initial regime of uniform deposition along the pore, after which the deposits acquire an approximately wedge shape, with the pore plugging near its entrance. After the regime of uniform deposition and before that of critical pore plugging, the average aggregation position slowly decreases with the number N of deposited particles approximately as N^-0.25. The apparently universal features of deposits generated by microscopic models are compared with those currently adopted in continuum models.

丙烯环氧化反应中TS-1催化剂失活研究

采用丙烯气相进料，在预混段中先与双氧水的甲醇溶液混合后进入固定床反应器，考察了进料液中pH值、丙二醇单甲醚、乙硫醇以及铁锈等对丙烯环氧化连续反应中TS-1分子筛催化剂性能的影响。结果表明，进料液体pH值对催化剂的催化性能有影响，适宜的进料液体pH值在7左右；副产物丙二醇单甲醚含量的增加不会对催化剂性能产生影响；乙硫醇量的增加使环氧丙烷选择性下降，但不会引起催化剂的失活；而进料液体中铁锈的引入会导致催化剂中部分孔堵塞，使催化剂部分失活。当进料液中的pH值用0.1mol/L的氨水调节为7左右，在反应温度55℃,反应压力0.7MPa，TS-1催化剂具有较好的稳定性，经130h的连续试验考察，双氧水的转化率和环氧丙烷的选择性约为90%。

Comparative Studies on the Deactivation and Regeneration of TiO2 Nanoparticles in Three Photocatalytic Oxidation Systems: C7H16, SO2, and C7H16-SO2

Three photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) systems: C₇H₁₆-O₂, SO₂-O₂ and C₇H₁₆-SO₂-O₂ were carried out with the aid of UV-illuminated TiO₂ nanoparticles at room temperature in a batch reactor. In C₇H₁₆-O₂-TiO₂ system, no catalyst deactivation was observed, while for SO₂-O₂-TiO₂ and C₇H₁₆-SO₂-O₂-TiO₂ systems, the photocatalytic activity of used TiO₂ powder showed decreasing and eventually no activity after used consecutively. The reaction products such as sulfur trioxide or sulfuric acid adsorbed onto the surface of TiO₂ catalyst were poisoning species. Photocatalytic activity of the deactivated TiO₂ powder could be regenerated by sonicating treatment with water and methanol for the two systems, respectively.
