Preparation and catalytic performances of a molecularly imprinted Ru-complex catalyst with an NH2 binding site on a SiO2 surface

A catalyst surface with an active metal site, a shape-selective reaction space, and an NH(2) binding site for o-fluorobenzophenone was designed and prepared by the molecular imprinting of a supported metal complex on a SiO(2) surface. A ligand of a SiO(2)-supported Ru complex that has a similar shape to the product of o-fluorobenzophenone hydrogenation was used as a template. An NH(2) binding site for o-fluorobenzophenone was spatially arranged on the wall of a molecularly imprinted cavity with a similar shape to the template. The structures of the SiO(2)-supported and molecularly imprinted Ru catalysts were characterized in a step-by-step manner by means of solid-state magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR, XPS, UV/Vis, N(2) adsorption, XRF, and Ru K-edge EXAFS. The molecularly imprinted Ru catalyst exhibited excellent shape selectivity for the transfer hydrogenation of benzophenone derivatives. It was found that the NH(2) binding site on the wall of the molecularly imprinted cavity enhanced the adsorption of o-fluorobenzophenone, of which the reduction product was imprinted, whereas there was no positive effect in the case of o-methylbenzophenone, which cannot interact with the NH(2) binding site through hydrogen bonding.     

核-壳型白藜芦醇分子印迹微球研制及应用

以表面修饰乙烯基团的SiO2微球为基体,白藜芦醇为模板分子,丙烯酰胺(AA)为功能单体,乙二醇二甲基丙烯酸酯(EGDMA)为交联剂,采用表面印迹技术制备核-壳型白藜芦醇印迹微球。采用红外光谱(IR)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对该分子印迹微球进行表征,结果表明,SiO2表面成功接枝一层厚度为200nm的印迹聚合物,该印迹微球颗粒分散均匀。采用高效液相色谱技术对印迹微球的吸附性进行研究表明,此印迹微球具有良好的识别性能,利用Scatchard模型分析得出印迹微球的最大吸附量分别为Qmax1=9.087mg/g和Qmax2=13.80mg/g。此印迹微球成功用于分离虎杖提取液中白藜芦醇。     

Mechanistic study of partial oxidation of methane to syngas using in situ time-resolved FTIR and microprobe Raman spectroscopies

In situ time-resolved Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and microprobe Raman spectroscopies were used to characterize the reaction mechanisms of the partial oxidation of methane to syngas over SiO(2)- and gamma-Al(2)O(3)-supported rhodium and ruthenium catalysts. The interaction of both pure methane and a methane/oxygen mixture at a stoichiometric feed ratio with an oxygen-rich catalyst surface led to the formation of CO2 and H(2)O as the primary products. For the H(2)-pretreated samples, the reaction mechanisms with the catalysts differ. Only Rh/SiO(2) is capable of catalyzing the direct oxidation of methane to syngas, while syngas formation over Rh/gamma-Al(2)O(3), Ru/SiO(2), and Ru/gamma-Al(2)O(3) can be achieved mainly via a combustion-reforming scheme. The significant difference in the mechanisms for partial oxidation of methane to syngas over the catalysts can be correlated to the differences in the concentration of oxygen species (O(2-)) on the catalyst surface during the reaction, mainly due to the difference in the nature of the metals and supports.     

Catalytic Performance in CO Hydrogenation Over SiO_2-Supported Ru-M (M=Co, Fe,Mo,Ni,Rh,Mn and Cr) Bimetallic Cluster-derived Catalysts

The bimetallic Ru-M (M=Co,Fe,Ni,Mo, Rh,Cr, Mn) catalysts were prepared from SiO_2-supported bimetallic carbonyl clusters, and it was found that the Ru-Co, Ru-Fe and Ru-Mo bimetallic carbonyl cluster-derived catalysts showed higher activity and selectivity for oxygenates such as C_1-C_5 alcohols in CO hydrogenation,in contrast to catalysts prepared from SiO_2-supported homometallic Ru and Co carbonyl clusters. In situ FT-IR studies revealed that the bands at 1584 and 1555 cm~(-1) species were intermediates to produce methanol and higher oxygenates,and at higher temperatures the 1584 cm~(-1) species could react with alkyl to form 1555 cm~(-1) species. By the surface chemical reaction and the IR study of isotopic molecules,it was suggested that 1584 and 1555 cm~(-1) were assigned to surface formyl and acetyl species.     

Effect of EtOH/MgCl(2) molar ratios on the catalytic properties of MgCl(2)-SiO(2)/TiCl(4) Ziegler-Natta catalyst for ethylene polymerization

MgCl(2)-SiO(2)/TiCl(4) Ziegler-Natta catalysts for ethylene polymerization were prepared by impregnation of MgCl(2) on SiO(2) in heptane and further treatment with TiCl(4). MgCl(2)·nEtOH adduct solutions were prepared with various EtOH/MgCl(2) molar ratios for preparation of the MgCl(2)-supported and MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalysts in order to investigate the effect on polymerization performance of both catalyst systems. The catalytic activities for ethylene polymerization decreased markedly with increased molar ratios of [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] for the MgCl(2)-supported catalysts, while for the bi-supported catalysts, the activities only decreased slightly. The MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalyst had relatively constant activity, independent of the [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] ratio. The lower [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] in MgCl(2)-supported catalyst exhibited better catalytic activity. However, for the MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalyst, MgCl(2) can agglomerate on the SiO(2) surface at low [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] thus not being not suitable for TiCl(4) loading. It was found that the optimized [EtOH]/[MgCl(2)] value for preparation of bi-supported catalysts having high activity and good spherical morphology with little agglomerated MgCl(2) was 7. Morphological studies indicated that MgCl(2)-SiO(2)-supported catalysts have good morphology with spherical shapes that retain the morphology of SiO(2). The BET measurement revealed that pore size is the key parameter dictating polymerization activity. The TGA profiles of the bi-supported catalyst also confirmed that it was more stable than the mono-supported catalyst, especially in the ethanol removal region.     

FTIR studies of CO adsorption on Al2O3- and SiO2-supported Ru catalysts

The adsorption of CO on Al2O3- and SiO2-supported Ru catalysts has been investigated through FTIR spectroscopy. Deconvolution of the spectra obtained reveals the presence of 11 distinct bands in the case of Ru/Al2O3 and 10 bands in the case of Ru/SiO2, which were assigned to different carbonyl species adsorbed on reduced as well as partially oxidized Ru sites. Although most of these bands on both supports are similar, they exhibit substantial differences in terms of stability. In general, the analogous CO species on Ru/Al2O3 are adsorbed stronger than those on Ru/SiO2, with the most stable species observed being a dicarbonyl adsorbed on metallic Ru (i.e., Ru0(CO)2). Following sintering of the Ru, the ratio of multicarbonyl to monocarbonyl adsorption is reduced substantially because of the lack of isolated sites or small Ru clusters that enable the formation of multicarbonyl species via oxidative disruption. Finally, in the presence of O2, the main features observed correspond to monocarbonyl, dicarbonyl, and tricarbonyl species adsorbed on partially oxidized Run+. The intensities of all bands decrease drastically at temperatures above 210 degrees C because of the onset of CO oxidation, which results in substantially reduced surface coverage.

Solution combustion synthesis of Co oxide-based catalysts for phenol degradation in aqueous solution

Solution combustion using urea as a fuel was employed to synthesise Co oxide and Al(2)O(3)-, SiO(2)- and TiO(2)-supported Co oxide catalysts. The catalysts were characterised using several techniques such as N(2) adsorption/desorption, XRD, FTIR, UV-vis diffuse reflectance and SEM-EDX, and their catalytic activity was evaluated in phenol degradation in aqueous solution with sulphate radicals. Solution combustion is a simple and effective method in preparation of supported Co catalysts. Co(3)O(4) was the major Co crystal phase in the samples prepared via the combustion synthesis. Bulk Co(3)O(4) particles were not effective in reaction, but supported Co oxides showed higher activity than unsupported Co oxide. The supports influenced Co dispersion and catalytic activity. Co/TiO(2) exhibited the highest activity, but it deactivated much faster than other two supported catalysts. Co/SiO(2) showed a comparable activity to Co/Al(2)O(3) and the best stability among the three Al(2)O(3)-, SiO(2)- and TiO(2)-supported Co catalysts.     

氧化铈负载钌催化剂中钌表面密度对氨合成活性和氢中毒的影响

氨是关系国计民生的大宗化学品,也是氢能源的重要载体.目前,世界合成氨工业每年消耗约2％的世界总能源,并排放超过1％的CO2,节能降耗需求十分迫切,其中的关键在于高性能氨合成催化剂的开发.传统观点认为,B5活性位是钌催化剂上氮解离和氨合成的活性位,当钌粒子尺寸在1.8～2.5 nm时催化剂的B5活性位数量最多,而钌尺寸较小(0.7～0.8 nm)的催化剂几乎没有氨合成活性.本文通过改变钌负载量调变了氧化铈负载钌催化剂的钌表面浓度,证实钌粒子尺寸低于2.0nm时,氧化铈负载钌催化剂也具有较高的氨合成活性.XPS等表征结果证实:钌表面密度低于0.68 Ru nm-2时,钌主要以层状形式存在于氧化铈表面,层状钌与氧化铈紧密接触,电子从氧化铈的缺陷位传递给钌物种,在这种情况下,Ru 3d5/2的结合能有所下降,氮解离能力增强,这有利于提高催化剂的氨合成活性;当钌表面密度约为0.68 Ru nm-2时,钌金属传递电子给氧化铈,此时Ru 3d5/2结合能有所增加;当钌表面密度高于1.4 Ru nm-2后,钌物种优先在层状钌表面聚集成大尺寸钌纳米粒子,此时催化剂中同时存在钌团簇和钌纳米粒子,氧化铈载体对钌粒子电子性质的影响减弱,因此大尺寸钌金属颗粒Ru 3d5/2结合能又有所下降.另一方面,氢分子会在氧化铈表面形成均裂产物(两个OH基团)或异裂产物(Ce-H和OH).同时氢分子还会在0价钌金属表面解离形成氢原子,并进一步溢流到氧化铈表面与氧原子作用形成羟基.钌活性位上的氢物种比氧化铈中的氢更容易脱附,因此氧化铈中钌的存在不仅可以增强其氢吸附量,还降低了氢物种的吸附强度.当钌表面密度低时,氧化铈与钌的相互作用较强,催化剂中的氢物种容易溢流到氧化铈中形成羟基基团,此时催化剂的氢吸附能力增强,氢中毒问题较显著.当钌表面密度较高时,氢原子在大尺寸钌颗粒上移动、反应和脱附,因此催化剂的氢中毒问题也得到显著缓解.总之,对于氧化铈负载钌催化剂,氧化铈与钌金属之间的电子相互作用以及其吸附性质都会影响催化剂的氨合成活性,因此钌表面密度低于0.31 Ru nm-2以及约为2.1 Ru nm-2时,催化剂都展现出了较高的氨合成活性.本文将为设计制备高性能钌基氨合成催化剂提供理论指导.

Encapsulation and selective recognition of molecularly imprinted theophylline and 17beta-estradiol nanoparticles within electrospun polymer nanofibers

Molecularly imprinted nanoparticles are cross-linked polymer colloids containing tailor-made molecular recognition sites. In this study, molecularly imprinted nanoparticles were easily encapsulated within polymer nanofibers using an electrospinning technique to produce a new type of molecular recognition material. Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) was used as the supporting nanofibers matrix to encapsulate theophylline and 17beta-estradiol imprinted nanoparticles. The composite nanofibers had an average diameter of 150-300 nm, depending on the content of molecularly imprinted nanoparticles. For the theophylline and 17beta-estradiol imprinted polymers, an optimal loading of molecularly imprinted nanoparticles was 25-37.5 wt % based on PET. The composite nanofibers prepared under these conditions had a well-defined morphology and displayed the best selective target recognition. Our approach of electrospinning-for-molecularly imprinted nanoparticles-encapsulation has unique advantages and opens new application opportunities for molecularly imprinted nanoparticles and electrospun nanofibers.

Site-isolated porphyrin catalysts in imprinted polymers

A meso-tetraaryl ruthenium porphyrin complex having four polymerizable vinylbenzoxy groups (2) has been synthesized by reaction of pyrrole with 4-(vinylbenzoxy)benzaldehyde and subsequent metalation with [Ru3(CO)12]. The porphyrin complex was immobilized by copolymerization with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. The resulting polymer P2 was found to catalyze the oxidation of alcohols and alkanes with 2,6-dichloropyridine N-oxide without activation by mineral acids. Under similar conditions, the homogeneous catalyst 2 was completely inefficient. By using diphenylaminomethane and 1-aminoadamantane as coordinatively bound templates during the polymerization procedure, the molecularly imprinted polymers P3 and P4 have been synthesized. Compared with the polymer P2, the imprinted catalysts displayed a significantly increased activity with rate enhancements of up to a factor of 16.     

Uniform-sized molecularly imprinted polymer for (S)-naproxen selectively modified with hydrophilic external layer.

A uniform-sized molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for (S)-naproxen selectively modified with hydrophilic external layer has been prepared. First, the molecularly imprinted polymer for (S)-naproxen was prepared using 4-vinylpyridine and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA) as a functional monomer and cross-linker, respectively, by a multi-step swelling and thermal polymerization method. Next, a 1:1 mixture of glycerol monomethacrylate (GMMA) and glycerol dimethacrylate (GDMA) was used for hydrophilic surface modification, and it was added directly to the molecularly imprinted polymer for (S)-naproxen 4 h after the start of molecular imprinting. The retention factors of all solutes tested were decreased with the surface modified molecularly imprinted polymer, compared with the unmodified molecularly imprinted polymer. However, chiral recognition of racemic naproxen was attained with the surface modified molecularly imprinted polymer as well as the unmodified molecularly imprinted polymer. Further, bovine serum albumin was completely recovered from the surface modified molecularly imprinted polymer. These results revealed that the chiral recognition sites of (S)-naproxen remained unchanged with hydrophilic surface modification, and that the molecularly imprinted polymer for (S)-naproxen was selectively modified with hydrophilic external layer. Preliminary results reveal that the surface modified molecularly imprinted polymer could be applicable to direct serum injection assays of (S)-naproxen.     

Sulfoxidation on a SiO2-supported Ru complex using O2/aldehyde system

A site-isolated SiO(2)-supported Ru-monomer complex, whose structure was characterized by means of solid-state NMR, XPS, UV/vis, and Ru K-edge EXAFS, was found to be efficient for sulfoxidation using an O(2)/aldehyde system. Significant enhancement of sulfoxidation rates was observed on the SiO(2)-supported Ru complex for various sulfide derivatives.     

Flow injection chemiluminescence sensor using core-shell molecularly imprinted polymers as recognition element for determination of dapsone

This paper reports the preparation of dapsone (DDS) imprinted polymer layer-coated silica submicron particles (SiO(2)) combined with chemiluminescence (CL) toward analysis of tracing DDS in practical samples. To induce the selective occurrence of surface polymerization, the amino groups were first grafted at the surface of SiO(2) by the (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES). The molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP) were coated at the surface of modified SiO(2) by the graft copolymerization. After the removal of templates, recognition sites of DDS were exposed in the polymer layers. The DDS-imprinted products were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, TEM, dynamic adsorption, and static adsorption tests. The proximity between the thickness of MIP layer and the spatial size of DDS indicated that the imprinted sites almost situated at the surface of MIP, leading to rapid adsorption saturation within 90 min. The apparent maximum binding amount of MIP toward DDS was evaluated as 14.98 mg·g(-1), which was much higher than that of non-molecularly imprinted polymers. The CL sensor provided a wide linear range for DDS within 1.0 × 10(-6) to 1.0 × 10(-4) mol·L(-1) with a detection limit of 5.27 × 10(-7) mol·L(-1) and the relative standard deviation of 1.8 % (n = 11) by determinations of 5.0 × 10(-6) mol·L(-1) DDS. This method was applied to determine DDS in urine samples and satisfactory results were obtained.
