Unexpected roles of molecular sieves in palladium-catalyzed aerobic alcohol oxidation

Methods for palladium-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of alcohols often benefit from the presence of molecular sieves. This report explores the effect of molecular sieves on the Pd(OAc)2/pyridine and Pd(OAc)2/DMSO (DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide) catalyst systems by performing kinetic studies of alcohol oxidation in the presence and absence of molecular sieves. Molecular sieves enhance the rate of the Pd(OAc)2/pyridine-catalyzed oxidation of alcohols, and the effect is attributed to the ability of molecular sieves to serve as a Br?nsted base. In contrast, no rate enhancement is observed for the Pd(OAc)2/DMSO-catalyzed reaction. Both catalyst systems exhibit improved catalyst stability in the presence of molecular sieves, manifested by higher catalytic turnover numbers. Control experiments indicate that neither of these beneficial effects is associated with the ability of molecular sieves to absorb water, a stoichiometric byproduct of these reactions. Finally, the use of simultaneous gas-uptake and in-situ IR spectroscopic studies reveal that molecular sieves inhibit the disproportionation of H2O2, an observation that contradicts a previous suggestion that the beneficial effect of molecular sieves may arise from their ability to promote H2O2 disproportionation.     

Facile and highly stereoselective one-pot synthesis of either (E)- or (Z)-nitro alkenes

Aliphatic aldehydes were reacted with nitro alkanes in the presence of catalytic amounts of piperidine over 4 A molecular sieves. Simply by changing reaction conditions (solvent and temperature) it is possible to control the stereochemical outcome of the reactions, obtaining pure (E)- and (Z)-nitro alkenes in high to excellent yields. The role of molecular sieves on the stereochemical control seems crucial in addition to that of piperidine, especially for the synthesis of the Z isomer.

Synthesis and crystal morphology control of AlPO4-5 molecular sieves by microwave irradiation

AlPO₄-5 molecular sieves have been synthesized by the hydrothermal and solvothermal reactions using triethylamine as a template, aluminum isopropoxide and orthophosphate as the aluminum and phosphorus resource under microwave irradiation. The influences of various experimental parameters, such as reaction time, reaction temperature and reaction power, have been systematically investigated. The morphology control of AlPO₄-5 molecular sieves was achieved by changing the dosage of solvent and HF to control the solvent polarity and control the nucleation respectively. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and so on. The results show that the aspect ratio of the AlPO₄-5 molecular sieves increases with the increase of the solvent polarity and with the increasing concentration of HF, the morphology of AlPO₄-5 molecular sieves changes from hexagonal plate to hexagonal rod.     

Structure-Directing Roles of Organic Molecules in the Formation of Aluminosilicate and Aluminophosphate Molecular Sieves Revealed by 2D 1H DQ-SQ NMR Spectroscopy

Understanding of crystallization mechanisms of molecular sieves is driven by the broad range of usefulness and unique properties they possess. It is still difficult to obtain information related to the crystallization mechanism of molecular sieves, partly because the materials are generally prepared under hydrothermal conditions and the whole reaction happens in the “black box” autoclave. In this work, 2D ¹H DQ-SQ NMR results clearly demonstrate that it is not only the electrostatic interactions between organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs) and the framework, but also the correlation among OSDAs playing the dominant structural directing roles during the crystallization process. Our fundamental understanding of the crystallization mechanism of molecular sieves could be of great value to design and synthesize new molecular sieves with desirable structural properties.     

Synthesis and Applications of SAPO-34 Molecular Sieves

Silicoaluminophosphate zeolite (SAPO-34) has been attracting increasing attention due to its excellent form selection and controllability in the chemical industry, as well as being one of the best industrial catalysts for methanol-to-olefin (MTO) reaction conversion. However, as a microporous molecular sieve, SAPO-34 easily generates carbon deposition and rapidly becomes inactivated. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the crystal size of the zeolite or to introduce secondary macropores into the zeolite crystal to form a hierarchical structure in order to improve the catalytic effect. In this review, the synthesis methods of conventional SAPO-34 molecular sieves, hierarchical SAPO-34 molecular sieves and nanosized SAPO-34 molecular sieves are introduced, and the properties of the synthesized SAPO-34 molecular sieves are described, including the phase, morphology, pore structure, acid source, and catalytic performance, in particular with respect to the synthesis of hierarchical SAPO-34 molecular sieves. We hope that the review can provide guidance to the preparation of the SAPO-34 catalysts, and stimulate the future development of high-performance hierarchical SAPO-34 catalysts to meet the growing demands of the material and chemical industries.     

吸附分离正构烃结焦失活的无粘结剂5A分子筛氧化再生研究

在固定床吸附器上模拟无粘结剂5A分子筛的失活过程,并对失活分子筛进行氧化再生研究。结果表明,焦炭会堵塞部分分子筛孔道,导致失活分子筛的比表面积和孔容减小、平均孔径增加。焦炭含量增加,分子筛的失活度增加,但增加的速率逐渐减小。氧化反应温度由582K升至787K,焦炭脱除率由64%增至100%。失活分子筛于787K下氧化处理后,其上焦炭被完全脱除,分子筛的吸附活性完全恢复。氧化再生后分子筛的比表面积和孔容增加,但难以恢复至新鲜分子筛的水平。在685K~884K,实验得到的无粘结剂5A分子筛上焦炭的氧化脱除宏观动力学方程为：ln(C₀/C) = 0.013exp(-28122.1/T) (p_O2)0.32t。     

Evaluation of the thermodynamic parameters for the adsorption of some hydrocarbons on alumina and molecular sieves 3A and 5A by inverse gas chromatography

Inverse gas chromatography has been used to evaluate the adsorption parameters (deltaH, deltaS and deltaG) of some probes, each representing a class of organic compounds (n-hexane, cyclohexane and benzene) on some adsorbents (activated alumina, and molecular sieves 3A and 5A). It was found that benzene exhibits more negative deltaH than for n-hexane and cyclohexane on molecular sieves 3A and 5A and alumina. Also, interactions of the benzene with molecular sieves 3A and 5A were found to be stronger than that on alumina. On the contrary, interactions of the hexane with alumina were found to be stronger than those on molecular sieves 3A and 5A.

Synthesis of Aluminophosphate Molecular Sieves in Alkaline Media

Unlike conventional aluminosilicate zeolites synthesized in alkaline media, aluminophosphate molecular sieves (AlPOs) have always been prepared under acidic conditions in the past three decades; this has been regarded as one of essential factors for synthesis, except for the case of silica-substituted analogues (SAPOs). For the first time, we demonstrate herein a simple and generalized route for synthesizing various types of aluminophosphate molecular sieves in alkaline media. A series of aluminophosphate sieves and their analogues have been prepared with different quaternary ammonium cations as structure-directing agents in this manner. The above successes have extended the systematic media from acidic or neutral to alkaline for the preparation of a series of aluminophosphate molecular sieves, which possibly open an alternative route for the synthesis of aluminophosphate molecular sieves.
