碳催化剂用于异丁烷直接脱氢制异丁烯

异丁烯用途广泛,被认为是除乙烯和丙烯外最重要的基础化工原料.异丁烯的来源主要是石油裂化过程中产生的碳四馏分,但随着对其需求量的逐年增加,分离法已逐渐无法满足,因此异丁烷直接脱氢工艺逐渐受到工业界和学术界的重视.铬系和铂系催化剂是两类传统工业催化体系,但铬对环境污染严重,铂作为贵金属成本较高,而且现有工艺大多存在催化剂稳定性较差需要反复再生的问题.近年来碳材料用于烷烃氧化脱氢反应的研究较多,并表现出较高的活性和稳定性,甚至有研究组提出金属催化剂在反应中快速生成的活性积碳(active coke)可能是真正的催化活性中心.但氧化脱氢反应不同于直接脱氢,需在反应中加入氧气,这在实际生产中会带来一系列问题：考虑到烷烃的爆炸极限,实际应用时反应气必须稀释,这不利于产物的收集;而且氧气会导致反应物过度氧化产生CO和CO2等副产物,也限制了氧化脱氢工艺在工业上的应用和发展.
　　我们研究组将椰壳碳、煤质碳和碳纳米管等碳材料作为催化剂用于催化异丁烷直接脱氢反应,发现碳催化剂表现出较高的催化活性：在625 oC,椰壳碳上异丁烷转化率和异丁烯选择性分别为70%和78%,连续反应3d后仍能维持34%的转化率,且选择性基本不变.与铬基催化剂相比,碳催化剂在稳定性方面表现出更大优势.我们进一步采用N2吸脱附、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)和场发射扫描电子显微镜(FE-SEM)等手段对反应前后的碳催化剂进行了详细表征. N2吸脱附结果表明,椰壳碳比表面积高达1190.2 m2/g,这可能是其具有较高催化活性的原因;而结合催化剂活性数据,对比反应前后椰壳碳催化剂比表面积和异丁烷转化率可知,两者呈现近乎线性的相关性,进一步证实比表面积大小对碳催化剂催化活性有重要影响. XPS谱图证明椰壳碳在反应前表面除了有少量硅(0.73%)外,不存在金属氧化物等杂质,证实碳材料无需负载氧化物等即可表现出较高的催化活性;反应后沉积的积碳附着在催化剂表面,使硅含量降低至0.47%;催化剂中氧含量也由4.43%降低至3.78%,同时有碳酸盐生成. FTIR谱图进一步证实反应前的椰壳碳表面有丰富的有机官能团,但反应开始后有机官能团很快消失,而催化剂仍保持较高的催化活性,因此有机官能团并非碳催化剂催化活性高的必要因素,这与文献中已报道的结果不同. FE-SEM照片中观察到反应后椰壳碳催化剂表面形成积碳,随着反应时间延长积碳明显增多,这与XPS结果一致.
　　碳材料具有来源广泛、绿色环保等显著优势,可作为一种新的催化体系应用于异丁烷直接脱氢反应,无需负载其他物质或添加氧化性气体即可表现出良好的催化活性和稳定性,其比表面积对催化活性有重要影响,反应中产生的积碳导致催化剂比表面积下降进而降低其催化活性,而有机官能团的存在对催化活性影响不大.

FeMn、FeMnNa和FeMnK催化剂上合成气制低碳烯烃的比较(英文)

研究了钠、钾助剂对FeMn合成低碳烯烃催化剂结构及性能的影响.低温N2吸附、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、X射线衍射(XRD)、H2程序升温还原(H2-TPR)、CO/CO2程序升温脱附(CO/CO2-TPD)、M?ssbauer谱和CO+H2反应的研究结果表明,增加Mn助剂含量促进了活性相的分散和低碳烯烃的生成,而过多锰助剂在催化剂表面的富集则降低了费托合成反应的CO转化率;钾助剂和钠助剂的加入均抑制了催化剂的还原并且促进了CO2和CO的吸附.比较还原后(H2/CO摩尔比为20)和反应后(H2/CO摩尔比为3.5)催化剂的体相结构可以发现,在FeMn、FeMnNa和FeMnK催化剂中,由于钾助剂的碱性和CO吸附能力较强,因此体相中FeCx的含量相对较高;而活性测试结果表明,FeMnNa催化剂拥有最好的CO转化率(96.2%)和低碳烯烃选择性(30.5%,摩尔分数).

Synthesis of pyrazolones and pyrazoles via Pd-catalyzed aerobic oxidative dehydrogenation

A palladium-catalyzed oxidative dehydrogenation reaction in the presence of AMS and base to synthesize pyrazolones and pyrazoles was identified. This method can be utilized to a wide range of substrates, operates under mild react conditions and can give high yields. We believe it could be used as an alternative protocol for the classical dehydrogenation reactions.     

Development of surface chemistry for surface plasmon resonance based sensors for the detection of proteins and DNA molecules

The immobilisation of biological recognition elements onto a sensor chip surface is a crucial step for the construction of biosensors. While some of the optical biosensors utilise silicon dioxide as the sensor surface, most of the biosensor surfaces are coated with metals for transduction of the signal. Biological recognition elements such as proteins can be adsorbed spontaneously on metal or silicon dioxide substrates but this may denature the molecule and can result in either activity reduction or loss. Self assembled monolayers (SAMs) provide an effective method to protect the biological recognition elements from the sensor surface, thereby providing ligand immobilisation that enables the repeated binding and regeneration cycles to be performed without losing the immobilised ligand, as well as additionally helping to minimise non-specific adsorption. Therefore, in this study different surface chemistries were constructed on SPR sensor chips to investigate protein and DNA immobilisation on Au surfaces. A cysteamine surface and 1%, 10% and 100% mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUDA) coatings with or without dendrimer modification were utilised to construct the various sensor surfaces used in this investigation. A higher response was obtained for NeutrAvidin immobilisation on dendrimer modified surfaces compared to MUDA and cysteamine layers, however, protein or DNA capture responses on the immobilised NeutrAvidin did not show a similar higher response when dendrimer modified surfaces were used.     

Reactivity differences between molecular and surface silanols in the preparation of homogeneous and heterogeneous olefin metathesis catalysts

The reaction of Mo(N)(CH₂tBu)₃ (1) and SiO_2-(700) generates (SiO)Mo(NH)(CHtBu)(CH₂tBu) (2) when performed in C₆H₆ (material [1/SiO_2-(700)]_C6H6). The grafting occurs presumably by protonation of the nitrido ligand to form an intermediate (SiO)Mo(NH)(CH₂tBu)₃ (3), a pentacoordinated complex, which decomposes into 2 and 2,2-dimethylpropane. While [1/SiO_2-(700)]_C6H6 is highly active in olefin metathesis, [1/SiO_2-(700)]_CH2Cl2 and [1/SiO_2-(700)]_THF are poorly active or inactive catalysts respectively. In contrast, when Mo(N)(CH₂tBu)₃ reacts with a molecular silanol derivative, a soluble model of the surface of SiO_2-(700), it yields a very stable complex, (c-C₅H₉)₇Si₇O₁₂SiO-Mo(NH)(CH₂tBu)₃ (3m), which does not spontaneously generate 2,2-dimethylpropane and an alkylidene complex in contrast to the surface complex. Moreover, 3m does not catalyse olefin metathesis at room temperature as it does not already contain the initiating carbene ligand, and it is necessary to heat up the reaction mixture to 110 °C to obtain low catalytic activity. Nevertheless, the complex 3m generates well-defined metallocarbenes when heated in the presence of PMe₃: (c-C₅H₉)₇Si₇O₁₂SiO-Mo(N)(CHtBu)(P(CH₃)₃)₂ (4m) as a 10:1 mixture of its syn and anti rotamers with the loss of 2 equiv. of 2,2-dimethylpropane.

Study of the surface chemistry and morphology of single walled carbon nanotube-magnetite composites

The study of the morphologies of the single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT), magnetite nanoparticles (MNP), and the composite based on them was carried with combined X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy (RS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). These techniques together with thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) and diffuse reflectance infrared transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) confirmed the production of pure single phases, and that the composite material consisted of MNP attached to the outer surface of the SWCNT. The Mössbauer spectroscopy (MS) research showed the presence of a large quantity of Lewis acid sites in the highly dispersed magnetite particles supported on the SWCNT outer surface. The DRIFTS carbon dioxide adsorption study of the composites revealed significant adsorption of carbon dioxide, fundamentally in the Lewis acid sites. Then, the Lewis acid sites were observed to be catalytically active. Further, the electron exchange between the Lewis acid sites and the basic or amphoteric adsorbed molecules could influence the magnetic properties of the magnetite. Consequently, together with this first ever use of MS in the study of Lewis acid sites, this investigation revealed the potential of the composites for catalytic and sensors applications.

Effect of carriers and additives on the activity and stability of copper-based catalysts for the dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol

A continuous process for the dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone on copper-based catalysts was described. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, XPS and TPR, and Cu⁰ was found to be the active site for the copper-based catalysts studied. The two carrier catalysts were proved to be more active than the single carrier ones, and the Cr additive, which mainly existed as the CuCr₂O₄ phase on the catalyst’s surface, was found to have a significant effect on the activity and stability of the Cu-Cr-Mg-Al catalyst.     

Homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis: bridging the gap through surface organometallic chemistry

Surface organometallic chemistry is an area of heterogeneous catalysis which has recently emerged as a result of a comparative analysis of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. The chemical industry has often favored heterogeneous catalysis, but the development of better catalysts has been hindered by the presence of numerous kinds of active sites and also by the low concentration of active sites. These factors have precluded a rational improvement of these systems, hence the empirical nature of heterogeneous catalysis. Catalysis is primarily a molecular phenomenon, and it must involve well-defined surface organometallic intermediates and/or transition states. Thus, one must be able to construct a well-defined active site, test its catalytic performance, and assess a structure-activity relationship, which will be used, in turn-as in homogeneous catalysis-to design better catalysts.By the transfer of the concepts and tools of molecular organometallic chemistry to surfaces, surface organometallic chemistry can generate well-defined surface species by understanding the reaction of organometallic complexes with the support, which can be considered as a rigid ligand. This new approach to heterogeneous catalysis can bring molecular insight to the design of new catalysts and even allow the discovery of new reactions (Ziegler-Natta depolymerization and alkane metathesis). After more than a century of existence, heterogeneous catalysis can still be improved and will play a crucial role in solving current problems. It offers an answer to economical and environmental problems faced by industry in the production of molecules (agrochemicals, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, polymers, basic chemicals).
