IM-5分子筛在Ni-Cu催化剂甲烷热裂解制氢反应中的作用研究

甲烷热裂解制氢并生成高附加值的纳米碳材料,被认为是极具发展前景的氢气生产途径,但高性能催化剂的研发仍存在诸多挑战.我们选择多种载体(TS-1、 IM-5、 Y、介孔SiO₂、 γ-Al₂O₃、 CNTs),采用浸渍法制备Ni-Cu负载催化剂,通过低温N2吸附-脱附、 XRD、 SEM和H₂-TPR等系列表征方法对样品进行分析,考察不同载体对催化剂甲烷裂解制氢和纳米碳材料的影响.实验结果发现,分子筛载体独特的孔道结构有利于金属颗粒的分散,能有效避免反应中界面效应导致的催化剂失活,可提高催化剂反应活性并延长反应寿命,也显著提高了其碳产率.其中以IM-5分子筛为载体的催化剂表现最佳,在反应温度为700℃时, NiCu/IM-5催化剂甲烷转化率高达80%,氢气选择性达100%,反应400 min后活性未见明显降低.

Catalytic Diastereo- and Enantioselective Cyclopropanation of gem-Dihaloalkanes and Terminal Olefins

Chiral cyclopropane derivatives are essential in synthetic chemistry and drug discovery. Their synthesis commonly relies on asymmetric cyclopropanation of diazo compounds, potentially explosive and needing stabilizing substituents. Thus, asymmetric catalytic transformations of non-stabilized carbenes or carbenoids remain a formidable challenge. Herein, we report the unprecedented chromium-catalyzed asymmetric cyclopropanation of readily available gem-dihaloalkanes and terminal olefins. Distinct from previous approaches, gem-dihaloalkanes serve as suitable precursors for non-stabilized carbenes or carbenoids, furnishing various functionalized chiral cyclopropanes. Mechanistic studies, including radical trapping, non-linear effect, and UV/Vis spectroscopy, provide insights into the catalytic process, featuring radical-polar crossover.     

ECNU-13: A High-Silica Zeolite with Three-Dimensional and High-Connectivity Multi-Pore Structures for Selective Alkene Cracking

A high-silica zeolite ECNU-13 (Si/Al=23) with a new three-dimensional (3D) pore system and a nanosized morphology has been developed, consisting of multitudes of 10-membered ring (10-R) medium pores and one set of 8-R small pores. A phase-discrimination strategy was proposed to synthesize ECNU-13 by regulating the gel compositions and nucleation processes that were used for preparing 12-R large-pore germanosilicate IM-20 with the known UWY topology. The crystallization was directed towards forming one set of single four-ring (s4r) composite building units together with one set of double four-ring (d4r) rather than two different types of d4r units in IM-20. The electron crystallographic investigations elucidated that the ECNU-13 structure was composed of two kinds of polymorphs as a result of distinct atomic positionings in s4r units. In catalytic cracking of 1-butene, ECNU-13 exhibited high propene selectivity (55.6 %) and propene to ethylene molar ratio (>4.7) superior to well-studied conventional ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst.     

Growing ZIF-8 Seeds on Charged COF Substrates toward Efficient Propylene-Propane Separation Membranes

We report a covalent organic framework (COF) induced seeding strategy to fabricate metal–organic framework (MOF) membranes. Contrary to graphene oxide nuclei-depositing substrate, COF substrate has uniform pore size, high microporosity and abundant functional groups. We designed a series of charged COF nanosheets to induce the formation of ZIF-8@COF nanosheet seeds with high aspect ratio over 150, which were readily processed into a compact and uniform seed layer. The resulting ZIF-8 membranes with thickness down to 100 nm exhibit an ultrahigh C₃H₆/C₃H₈ separation performance and superior long-term stability. Our strategy is also validated by fabricating ultrathin ZIF-67 and UiO-66 membranes.     

Total synthesis of haminol A: an analysis of vinylpyridine metathesis reactivity

The total synthesis of haminol A has been completed featuring a masked-alkene metathesis reaction followed by bis-acyloxysulfone elimination to install the 1,3,8-triene subunit. During the course of our synthesis, the metathesis reactivity of 3-vinylpyridine was evaluated and our data suggest the rapid formation of a ruthenium pyridylalkylidene that no longer participates in productive metathesis. A chemotaxis assay using Caenorhabditis elegans demonstrated that haminol A produced an avoidance response from this organism.     

A Short and Efficient Synthesis of a Novel Diarylheptanoid Isolated from Pleuranthodium Racemigerum

The first total synthesis of the linear diarylheptanoid 1‐(4″‐methoxyphenyl)‐7‐(4′‐hydroxyphenyl)‐(E)‐hept‐2‐ene, which has a uniquely nonconjugated olefin, was achieved. The synthetic route employed an olefin cross‐metathesis as a key step. Beginning with commercially available 3‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)propan‐1‐ol, the final product was made in three steps with a 52% yield.     

As low as reasonably achievable catalyst loadings in the cross metathesis of olefins with ethyl acrylate

A series of ruthenium catalysts for olefin metathesis have been screened in the cross metathesis of 1,9-decadiene with ethyl acrylate. Under optimized reaction conditions a catalyst loading of only 100 ppm in respect to double bonds was sufficient for complete conversion of the diene.
