Desilication mechanism revisited: highly mesoporous all-silica zeolites enabled through pore-directing agents

The role of pore‐directing agents (PDAs) in the introduction of hierarchical porosity in silicalite‐1 in alkaline medium was investigated. By incorporation of various PDAs in aqueous NaOH, homogenously distributed mesopores were introduced in 2.5 μm silicalite‐1 crystals. It was proven for the first time that framework aluminum is not a prerequisite for the introduction of intracrystalline mesoporosity by desilication. The pore‐directing role is not directly exerted by framework trivalent cations metals, but by species on the external surface of the zeolite. The inclusion of metal complexes (Al(OH)₄^?, Ga(OH)₄^?) and tetraalkyl ammonium cations (tetramethyl ammonium (TMA⁺), tetrapropyl ammonium (TPA⁺)) in the alkaline solution led to distinct mesopore surface areas (up to 286 m² g^?1) and pore sizes centered in the range of 5–20 nm. In the case alkaline treatment was performed in the presence of Al(OH)₄^?, all aluminum partially integrated in the zeolite giving rise to both Lewis and Brønsted acidity. Apart from the concentration and location, the affinity of the PDA to the zeolite surface plays a crucial role in the pore formation process. If the PDA is attracted too strongly (e.g., TMA⁺), the dissolution is reduced dramatically. When the pore‐directing agent is not attracted to the zeolite’s external surface, excessive dissolution occurs (standard alkaline treatment). TPA⁺ proved to be the most effective PDA as its presence led to high mesopore surface areas (>200 m² g^?1) over a broad range of PDA concentrations (0.003–0.1 M ). Importantly, our results enable to extend the suitability of desilication for controlled mesopore formation to all‐silica zeolites.

An efficient and easily retrievable dip catalyst based on silver nanoparticles/chitosan-coated cellulose filter paper

Re-use of a catalyst is an important task, which is usually achieved by loading it on easily separable supports such as magnetic substrates. However, we demonstrate here the process of easy and fast catalyst separation from a reaction medium by loading it onto an economically feasible and microscopically high surface substrate of filter paper (FP) made up of cellulose microfibers as catalyst support. To achieve the goal, we coated chitosan (CH) on filter paper (CH-FP) to impart a high affinity of the substrate for metal ion absorption. AgNO₃ dissolved in water with a 0.1 M concentration was used as the Ag ion carrier solution, and CH-FP strips with known rectangular dimensions were submerged into it for the metal ion absorption. The metal ion-laden CH-FP strips were dip treated with sodium borohydride (NaBH₄) aqueous solution to prepare Ag-nanoparticle loaded CH-FP (Ag/CH-FP). X-ray diffraction and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the formation of the Ag/CH-FP hybrid. Ag/CH-FP morphology was examined through scanning electron microscopy analysis, which showed the presence of Ag nanoparticles attached to the cellulose microfibers. The prepared Ag/CH-FP was employed as a dip catalyst for the degradation of nitroarene compounds of 2-nitophenol (2-NP) and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) by NaBH₄. Remarkably, the rate constants for 4-NP and 2-NP were 3.9 × 10^?3 and 1.7 × 10^?3 s^?1, respectively. In addition, we discussed the ease of the catalyst retrievability from the reaction mixture and its re-usability.     

DFT Study of the BH4− Hydrolysis on Au(111) Surface

The mechanism of the catalytic hydrolysis of BH₄⁻ on Au(111) as studied by DFT is reported. The results are compared to the analogous process on Ag(111) that was recently reported. It is found that the borohydride species are adsorbed stronger on the Au⁰-NP surface than on the Ag⁰-NP surface. The electron affinity of the Au is larger than that of Ag. The results indicate that only two steps of hydrolysis are happening on the Au(111) surface and the reaction mechanism differs significantly from that on the Ag(111) surface. These remarkable results were experimentally verified. Upon hydrolysis, only three hydrogens of BH₄⁻ are transferred to the Au surface, not all four, and H₂ generation is enhanced in the presence of surface H atoms. Thus, it is proposed that the BH₄⁻ hydrolysis and reduction mechanisms catalyzed by M⁰-NPs depend considerably on the nature of the metal.     

Preparation of a kind of mesoporous carbon and its performance in adsorptive desulfurization

Carbon materials were prepared using mesoporous silica HMS with different pore sizes as the hard templates and water-soluble phenolic resin as the carbon source. The obtained materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and N₂ physical adsorption, and were used in adsorptive desulfurization. It has been shown that the carbon material prepared using HMS with larger pore size (>3 nm) presented uniform wormlike mesopore of 2.3 nm and large BET surface area (1903 m²/g). The mesoporous carbon was an excellent adsorbent to remove the refractory sulfur compound in diesel, especially dibenzothiophene and 4, 6-dimethyldibenzothiophene.

Enhancement of activity and reusability of lipase immobilized on magnetic mesoporous silica for the resolution of racemic secondary alcohols

Magnetic mesoporous silica (MMS) composites with an average mesopore size (~2.98 nm), large surface area (404–442 m²/g), and high saturated magnetization (17.7–33.5 emu/g) were successfully prepared by hydrothermal crystallization in the presence of monodisperse Fe₃O₄ microspheres. The as‐synthesized composites served as supports for lipase from Burkholderia cepacia (BCL) immobilization in isooctane via interfacial activation and were then employed as biocatalysts for the transesterification resolution of racemic aromatic secondary alcohols to synthesize chiral intermediates. The catalytic performance of the immobilized BCL (BCL/MMS) was notably improved compared to that of the non‐immobilized BCL, with the total conversion and enantiomeric excess reaching 50 and 99% of the maximum theoretical values, respectively. Furthermore, the magnetic BCL/MMS possessing the same textural properties and enzyme loading exhibited decreasing catalytic capability as their saturated magnetization value increased. Moreover, BCL/MMS could also be readily recycled from the reaction system by applying an external magnetic field so as to facilitate its reuse up to five cycles with retaining up to 90% of the initial activity. Its high activity, easy recovery, and excellent operational stability make the BCL/MMS a potential green catalyst for the synthesis of optically active intermediates.
