The ammoxidation of 3- and 4-picolines has been studied over V₂O₅–SnO₂/–Al₂O₃ catalysts prepared by surface impregnation technique. Best results were obtained for the generation of cyanopyridines in the temperature range 400–450°C and sub-stoichiometric value with respect to O₂. Catalysts that were calcined above 700°C showed no activity.

有序介孔CuFe2O4同时催化去除碳烟与NOx

采用纳米复刻(浇筑)法制备一系列介孔CuFe_2O_4.通过X射线衍射(XRD)、 N_2物理吸附、透射电镜(TEM)等研究了不同制备条件对有序介孔CuFe_2O_4结构形成的影响.研究发现,作为对比,柠檬酸法仅能合成普通的四方相CuFe_2O_4纳米颗粒,但是硬模板法则能合成出高温淬火才能形成的立方晶相介孔结构CuFe_2O_4.进一步研究了该催化剂同时催化去除碳烟和氮氧化合物(NO_x)的性能,研究发现,与柠檬酸法合成的普通CuFe_2O_4催化剂相比,介孔结构CuFe_2O_4不仅大幅降低了碳烟起燃温度(324降低到278℃),而且将N_2的最高产率从5.9%提升到了92.2%.基于原位漫反射红外(in-situ DRIFTS)的机理分析研究表明,合成过程中采用NaOH除去硬模板的过程中会在介孔CuFe_2O_4表面造成大量残留的钠盐,这种高分散的钠物种促进了NO_x的吸附并转化为硝酸盐物种,从而促进碳烟氧化以及NO_x转化.但是与表面Na修饰的CuFe_2O_4相比,体相Na掺杂的CuFe_2O_4虽然具有更好的有序介孔结构,但是其氧化性能下降,进一步也导致了NO_x的催化还原性能的下降.

Direct C–H amination of benzothiazoles by magnetically recyclable CuFe2O4 nanoparticles under ligand-free conditions

A simple and highly practical method for the synthesis of 2-N-substituted benzothiazoles has been developed by using nano copper ferrite as a magnetically separable, recyclable catalyst. The present tandem process allows to get access to a wide range of 2-N-substituted benzothiazoles in good to excellent yields by the reaction of benzothiazole with nitrogen nucleophiles in the presence of Cs₂CO₃ as a base. The nano CuFe₂O₄ could be recovered and reused with no significant loss of catalytic activity.     

Acyclic and cyclic forms of the radicals HO4? CH3O4? and C2H5O4·: ab initio quantum chemical calculations

Acyclic and cyclic structures and total energies of radicals HO₄⋅ CH₃O₄⋅ and C₂H₅O₄· were calculated by ab initio quantum chemical methods. Depending on the computational method and basis sets used, the cyclic conformer of the HO₄· radical is 4.8 to 7.3 kJ mol^-1 more stable than the acyclic one. For the first two representatives of the homologous series of alkyl tetraoxyl radicals, CH₃O₄· and C₂H₅O₄, MP2/6-311++G** calculations predict insignificant energy differences (1.2 kJ mol^-1) between six-membered cyclic and acyclic conformers. Apparently, these radicals can exist in both forms.

The main structural units of crystals I and II are [(UO₂)₂(C₂O₄)(SO₄)₂(NCS)₂]⁴⁻ chains belonging to the crystal-chemical group A₂K⁰²B₂²M₂¹ (A = UO₂²⁺, K⁰² = C₂O₄²⁻, B² = SO₄²⁻, M¹ = NCS⁻) of the uranyl complexes. The uranium-containing chains are joined into a three-dimensional framework due to a system of electrostatic interactions with the cesium or ammonium ions in the structure of I. In the structure of II, this framework is additionally stabilized by hydrogen bonds involving the outer-sphere water molecules and ammonium ions. Original Russian Text ? I.V. Medrish, A.V.

Estimation of kinetic parameters in oxidative dehydrogenation of n-butenes over SnO2?Sb2O4 catalysts

Kinetic curves measured in the oxidation of n-butenes over a SnSb=31 mixed oxide catalyst were fitted by the kinetic model put forward in a previous paper. The goodness of fitting shows that the kinetic behavior of this complex reaction system can be described by a mechanism involving acidic and redox sites on the catalyst surface.

Deuterium exchange reaction of ethylbenzene over an Fe2O3?K2CO3?Cr2O3 catalyst

Isotope exchange reaction of ethylbenzene with water or hydrogen has been examined over Fe₂O₃–K₂CO₃–Cr₂O₃ catalyst. The participation of the hydrogen attached to -carbon or phenyl group was observed. The exchange rate of the -hydrogen was compared for different alkylbenzenes and found that toluene was the most active, whereas cumene was inactive. This order suggested that the -hydrogen dissociated as a proton. -Adsorbed state was supposed as an intermediate of dehydrogenation, which dissociates the -hydrogen reversibly as a proton on a basic site. Including the results of exchange reaction of styrene, the overall route of dehydrogenation is discussed.     

Gas-phase measurements of the surface basicity of AlPO4?TiO2 and AlPO4?ZrO2 catalysts

The amount and strength of basic sites of AlPO₄–TiO₂ and AlPO₄–ZrO₂ catalysts over a different range of AlPO₄/metal oxide weight ratios were measured by studying the adsorption of acid molecules (acrylic acid and phenol) in the gas phase (473–673 K) by using the gas-chromatographic pulse method. The results obtained show that the basicity of AlPO₄–TiO₂ and AlPO₄–ZrO₂ catalysts is far lower than that of pure AlPO₄, and with an increase in the metal oxide (TiO₂ or ZrO₂) weight ratio, the basicity decreases. Besides, the basicity of AlPO₄–ZrO₂ is fairly low compared with that AlPO₄–TiO₂. In both cases, the total basicity (measured at 473 K vs. acrylic acid) gradually decreases with the calcination temperature while the stronger basic sites (measured at 573 K vs. phenol) remained unchanged up to calcination temperatures of 1073 K. Some weak surface basic sites remained in catalysts pretreated at 1273 K.

Specifics of pyrohydrolytic and solid-phase syntheses of solid solutions in the (MgGa2O4)x(MgFe2O4)1 ? x system

This work demonstrates the possibility of preparing solid solutions in the (MgGa₂O₄) _x (MgFe₂O₄)_{1 − x} system by pyrohydrolytic and solid-phase methods. It is shown that the products obtained have different specific surface areas depending on the ratio between metal nitrates and citric acid. The composition dependence of the unit cell parameter deviates considerably from the Vegard’s rule. The compounds obtained are found to be stable up to 300°C, which makes them candidate materials for electronics.     

Michael addition of nitromethane to 3-buten-2-one catalyzed by potassium fluoride supported on Al2O3, ZnO, SnO2, sepiolite, AlPO4, AlPO4?Al2O3 and AlPO4?ZnO

The Michael addition of nitromethane to 3-buten-2-one has been carried out in the absence of solvent, using potassium fluoride supported on Al₂O₃, ZnO, SnO₂, sepiolite, AlPO₄, AlPO₄–Al₂O₃ and AlPO₄–ZnO catalysts. We found that KF/ZnO easily performed the Michael addition and thus, ZnO is a better support for the basic reagent than Al₂O₃. Besides, the Michael addition was not successful with AlPO₄ or AlPO₄-metal oxide acidic supports.
