Characteristics of membrane-electrode assemblies of hydrogen-air fuel cells with PtCoCr/C catalyst

A cathodic catalyst, which can replace monoplatinum commercial catalyst, is developed and investigated. New catalyst combines a smaller consumption of platinum with a higher mass activity and corrosion resistance. A method of fabrication of ternary (PtCoCr/C) catalyst is improved in order to obtain the catalytic system containing 45–50 wt % platinum. This is necessary to form thinner active layers of cathodes of membrane-electrode assemblies of hydrogen-air fuel cells. The activity of the synthesized PtCoCr/C catalyst is by 1.2–1.5 times higher than that of the monoplatinum catalyst containing 60–70 wt % Pt. According to the accelerated-test data, the corrosion resistance of PtCoCr/C catalyst is also higher than that of Pt/C system.     

Kinetics of the oxygenation of unsaturated organics with singlet oxygen generated from H2O2 by a heterogeneous molybdenum catalyst

A heterogeneous catalyst containing MoO42- exchanged on layered double hydroxides (Mo-LDHs) is used to produce 1O2 from H2O2, and with this dark 1O2, unsaturated hydrocarbons are oxidized in allylic peroxides. The oxidation kinetics are studied in detail and are compared with the kinetics of oxidation by 1O2, formed from H2O2 by a homogeneous catalyst. A model is proposed for the heterogeneously catalyzed 1O2 generation and peroxide formation. The model divides the reaction suspension in two compartments: (1) the intralamellar and intragranular zones of the LDH catalyst; (2) the bulk solution. The 2-compartment model correctly predicts the oxidant efficiency and peroxide yield for a series of olefin peroxidation reactions. 1O2 is generated at a high rate by the heterogeneous catalyst, but somewhat more 1O2 is lost by quenching with the heterogeneous catalyst than using the homogeneous catalyst. Quenching occurs mainly as a result of collision with the LDH hydroxyl surface, as is evidenced by using LDH supports containing strong 1O2 deactivators such as Ni2+. A total of 15 organic substrates were peroxidized on a preparative scale using the best Mo-LDH catalyst under optimal conditions.

A silica-supported, switchable, and recyclable hydroformylation-hydrogenation catalyst

A homogeneous hydroformylation catalyst, designed to produce selectively linear aldehydes, was covalently tethered to a polysilicate support. The immobilized transition-metal complex [Rh(A)CO]+(1+)), in which A is N-(3-trimethoxysilane-n-propyl)-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)phenoxazine, was prepared both via the sol-gel process and by covalent anchoring to silica. 1+ was characterized by means of (31)P and (29)Si MAS NMR, FT-IR, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Polysilicate immobilized Rh(A) performed as a selective hydroformylation catalyst showing an overall selectivity for the linear aldehyde of 94.6% (linear to branched aldehyde ratio of 65). In addition 1-nonanol, obtained via the hydrogenation of the corresponding aldehyde, was formed as an unexpected secondary product (3.6% at 20% conversion). Under standard hydroformylation conditions, 1+ and HRh(A)(CO)(2)(1) coexist on the support. This dual catalyst system performed as a hydroformylation/hydrogenation sequence catalyst (Z), giving selectively 1-nonanol from 1-octene; ultimately, 98% of 1-octene was converted to mainly 1-nonanal and 97% of the nonanal was hydrogenated to 1-nonanol. The addition of 1-propanol completely changes Z in a hydroformylation catalyst (X), which produces 1-nonanal with an overall selectivity of 93%, and completely suppresses the reduction reaction. If the atmosphere is changed from CO/H(2) to H(2) the catalyst system is switched to the hydrogenation mode (Y), which shows a clean and complete hydrogenation of 1-octene and 1-nonanal within 24 h. The immobilized catalyst can be recycled and the system can be switched reversibly between the three "catalyst modes" X, Y, and Z, completely retaining the catalyst performance in each mode.     

Scope and limitations of chiral B-

A new chiral oxazaborolidine catalyst was prepared in situ from 3, 5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenylboron dichloride and N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-(S)-tryptophan. This catalyst is much more active than Corey's original catalyst for the Mukaiyama aldol reaction of aldehydes with silyl enol ethers. The observed syn selectivities and re-face attack of silyl enol ethers on carbonyl carbon of aldehydes imply that the extended-transition state model is applicable.     

Insights into the origin of high activity and stability of catalysts derived from bulky, electron-rich monophosphinobiaryl ligands in the Pd-catalyzed C-N bond formation

A comparative kinetic examination of catalyst systems based on several monophosphinobiaryl ligands is reported. The bulk of the phosphine ligand controls the catalytic activity and the rate of catalyst activation with the catalyst based on 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2',4',6'-triisopropylbiphenyl providing the greatest activity and fastest activation. In the case where catalyst activation is slow (i.e., use of the smaller ligands such as 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2'-methylbiphenyl in combination with Pd(OAc)2) stirring the amine with the catalyst/base mixture prior to the commencement of the reaction increases the reaction rate along with the rate of catalyst activation. Kinetic isotope effects established that the catalyst activation process occurs through a beta-hydride elimination pathway.

The kinetics of diethylene glycol formation from bis-hydroxyethyl terephthalate with antimony catalyst in the preparation of PET

This research discussed the effect of the addition of antimony catalyst on diethylene glycol (DEG) formation in poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) synthesis. It was found that antimony catalyst increased DEG formation in the preparation of PET, in particular, during the esterification stage and also during the prepolycondensation stage. To further discuss the effect of antimony catalyst on DEG formation in the preparation of PET, this research also focused on the kinetics of DEG formation during PET synthesis from purified bishydroxyethyl terephthalate (BHET) monomer with antimony catalyst. The rate expression of DEG formation from BHET monomer and antimony catalyst was described. It was found that the activation energy of BHET monomer with antimony catalyst in DEG formation is lower than that of BHET monomer without the addition of catalyst. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Cu(I)-catalyzed diamination of conjugated dienes. Complementary regioselectivity from two distinct mechanistic pathways involving Cu(II) and Cu(III) species

Conjugated dienes can be diaminated at the internal and/or terminal double bonds using Cu(I) as catalyst and N,N-di-t-butyldiaziridinone (1) as nitrogen source. The regioselectivity is highly dependent upon the choice of Cu(I) catalyst and the substituents on diene substrates. The diamination likely proceeds via two mechanistically distinct pathways. The N-N bond of N,N-di-t-butyldiaziridinone (1) is first homolytically cleaved by the Cu(I) catalyst to form four-membered Cu(III) species A and Cu(II) radical species B, which are in rapid equilibrium. The internal diamination likely proceeds in a concerted manner via Cu(III) species A, and the terminal diamination likely involves Cu(II) radical species B. Kinetic studies have shown that the diamination is first-order in N,N-di-t-butyldiaziridinone (1), zero-order in olefin, and first-order in total Cu(I) catalyst, and the cleavage of the N-N bond of 1 by the Cu(I) catalyst is the rate-determining step. The internal diamination is favored by use of CuBr without ligand and electron-rich dienes. The terminal diamination is favored when using CuCl-L and dienes with radical-stabilizing groups.

N-alkyl-4-boronopyridinium halides versus boric acid as catalysts for the esterification of alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acids

[reaction: see text] Boric acid is a highly effective catalyst for the dehydrative esterification reaction between equimolar mixtures of alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acids and alcohols. In contrast, N-methyl-4-boronopyridinium iodide (2a) is a more effective catalyst than boric acid for the similar esterification in excess alcohol. A heterogeneous catalyst, such as N-polystyrene-bound 4-boronopyridinium chloride, is also an effective catalyst and can be recovered by filtration.

The polystyrene-based ligand is prepared in one step from commercially available compounds. The polymeric catalyst generally gives good yields for a variety of substrates and is water- and air-tolerant, although the scope of alkenes and alkynes which can be employed is somewhat narrower than with our original xantphos/Pd(2)dba(3) catalyst.     

A Mo(VI) alkylidyne complex with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane ligands: homogeneous analogue of a silica-supported alkyne metathesis catalyst

Double metal cyano catalyst for ring opening polymerization of propylene oxide

A double metal cyano (DMC) catalyst is very effective for ring opening polymerization of propylene oxide (PO). The characteristics of the DMC complex were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetry (TG). DMC complex generally result in a significant reduction of monols in the polyol production process. DMC catalyst is characterized by an approximately 1000 times higher activity compared to the conventional KOH catalyst. Disadvantages of the conventional KOH process are long reaction times, costly work-up procedures to remove the base catalyst and the formation of undesired unsaturated by-products (so called “monols”) especially in the preparation of long chain polyether polyols.
