Encapsulated ultrafine and highly dispersed molybdenum dioxide nanoparticles in hollow mesoporous silica spheres as an efficient epoxidation catalyst for alkenes

A facile post-synthetic strategy was developed to functionalize the preformed hollow mesoporous silica spheres by encapsulating the molybdenum dioxide (MoO₂) nanoparticles inside the interior cavity. Hollow mesoporous silica spheres were prepared and employed as carriers, and the encapsulation of MoO₂ nanoparticles was achieved through a one-pot hydrothermal protocol. After characterization, the encapsulated MoO₂ nanoparticles were certified to be ultrafine and highly dispersed, which greatly promoted the catalytic activity. The as-prepared catalysts were utilized in epoxidation of alkenes and exhibited as a promising catalyst in this reaction. After reacting for 10 h, the optimal catalyst MoO₂@SiO₂-1 achieved a conversion above 95% and selectivity above 95%, respectively. Moreover, the catalysts also exhibited good reusability, conversion of 78% and selectivity of 89% (reaction time 4 h) were still obtained after recycling for 5 times. Meanwhile, the employed facial and efficient hydrothermal approach could be expanded to other molybdenum modified heterogeneous catalysts in various applications.     

Nano‐MoO3 for highly selective enrichment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in in‐tube solid‐phase microextraction

Nano‐molybdenum trioxide was prepared from nano‐molybdenum disulfide by simple firing in muffle furnace. Nano‐molybdenum trioxide was used as the extraction coating on the stainless steel wire. Four wires were filled in a polyetheretherketone tube to get an extraction tube. The tube was connected to the six‐port valve of a high performance liquid chromatograph, and the online analysis system was constructed. Extraction selectivity of the tube for different types of compounds, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, plasticizers, estrogens, anilines and neonicotinoids, was studied. Good enrichment ability for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, but the extraction efficiency of others was not satisfactory. Using eight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as the targets, an analytical method was established after optimizing main factors such as sampling volume, sampling rate, methanol content, and desorption time. The established method exhibited wide linear range to 0.016–20.00 μg/L and low limits of detection to 0.005 μg/L, and the enrichment factors can be up to 2443. The method was applied to the detection of trace polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in tap water and river water, and a good recovery was obtained. The tube showed good durability and chemical stability, and it still remained good extraction effect after more than 140 run.     

Solvent-free epoxidation of himachalenes and their derivatives by TBHP using [MoO2(SAP)]2 as a catalyst

Himachalenes, sesquiterpenes isolated from the essential oil of Cedrus atlantica, are abundant and relatively inexpensive natural molecules of high interest, of which classical chemical transformations have enlarged the application potential. Solvent-free epoxidation using aqueous TBHP as an oxidant and [MoO₂(SAP)]₂ as a catalyst is performed herein for the first time with this family of natural compounds and with related halogenated derivatives.

表面暴露活性位点的MoS_2纳米催化剂催化硝基化合物的非均相氢转移反应（英文）

MoS_2具有独特的二维层状结构,被广泛用于加氢脱硫过程以及HER反应,而且可以通过减少MoS_2的颗粒尺寸以及层数来进一步改善其催化活性.通过剥离方法得到的MoS_2纳米片虽然表现出优良的加氢脱硫活性,但容易团聚使其循环使用性能很差.如果通过引入纳米碳将单层的MoS_2纳米片进行有效"隔离",则可明显降低团聚的可能性,从而改善其催化性能和稳定性.本文通过一步水热法制备出了碳嵌入的MoS_2纳米颗粒(MoS_2@C),将其应用于硝基苯类化合物的氢转移反应中表现出了非常好的催化性能.进一步通过粉末X射线衍射(XRD)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)、透射电子显微镜(TEM)和在线质谱检测等手段研究了层间距增加的MoS_2催化剂在硝基苯类化合物的氢转移反应中催化性能提升的原因.XRD,SEM和TEM结果表明,通过引入碳材料可以明显增加MoS_2的层间距,同时减小其颗粒尺寸,而且使MoS_2表现出弯曲的(002)晶面.由于存在一定的曲率,这种(002)晶面也会表现出一定的催化能力.氮气物理吸附结果表明,这种MoS_2@C复合物具有较高的比表面积(89 m~2g~(-1))和明显的介孔结构(~20 nm),在催化反应中有利于底物扩散,进而改善催化性能.XPS结果显示,与体相的MoS_2相比,MoS_2@C表面暴露出更多的不饱和Mo原子(Mo/S=0.71(MoS_2@C)vs Mo/S=0.63(MoS_2)),形成了独特的S-Mo-O结构以及缺陷结构.在硝基苯类化合物的氢转移反应中,层间距增加的MoS_2@C由于暴露出更多的活性位和具有弯曲的(002)晶面,表现出了更高的催化活性–(TOF=3.66 s~(-1) vs 1.24 s~(-1)(MoS_2)).通过质谱对反应过程的追踪发现,在只有肼存在的条件下,MoS_2@C催化肼分解的主要气相产物是氨气.这说明MoS_2@C能够使肼发生N-N键的断裂.而当肼和硝基苯同时存在的条件下,质谱检测的气相产物主要是氮气,表明硝基苯的存在可以诱导肼逐步发生N-H键断裂,在催化剂表面形成活性的H物种,进而转移到硝基苯上使其还原得到苯胺.使用偶氮苯和氧化偶氮苯作为反应底物,发现MoS_2@C很难使其还原为苯胺,这说明在该催化体系中,硝基苯的还原过程主要是沿着直接路径(硝基苯-亚硝基苯-苯胺)进行的.     

Application of solid-state early-transition metal clusters as catalysts

Metal cluster compounds are expected to be catalysts for new reactions because of synergistic effect of the metal atoms. In solid-state halide clusters and sulfide clusters, metal cluster frameworks are linked in two- or three-dimensions to form a cluster network. Halogen- or sulfur-deficient metal sites in an octahedral metal cluster framework are retained intact and act as catalytically active sites even at high temperatures of 400–700?°C. This review reports recent advances in the development of coordinatively unsaturated metal atoms on solid-state clusters with an octahedral metal framework and their application to organic catalytic reactions.     

Redox Chemistry of Molybdenum Trioxide for Ultrafast Hydrogen‐Ion Storage

Hydrogen ions are ideal charge carriers for rechargeable batteries due to their small ionic radius and wide availability. However, little attention has been paid to hydrogen‐ion storage devices because they generally deliver relatively low Coulombic efficiency as a result of the hydrogen evolution reaction that occurs in an aqueous electrolyte. Herein, we successfully demonstrate that hydrogen ions can be electrochemically stored in an inorganic molybdenum trioxide (MoO₃) electrode with high Coulombic efficiency and stability. The as‐obtained electrode exhibits ultrafast hydrogen‐ion storage properties with a specific capacity of 88 mA hg^?1 at an ultrahigh rate of 100 C. The redox reaction mechanism of the MoO₃ electrode in the hydrogen‐ion cell was investigated in detail. The results reveal a conversion reaction of the MoO₃ electrode into H_0.88MoO₃ during the first hydrogen‐ion insertion process and reversible intercalation/deintercalation of hydrogen ions between H_0.88MoO₃ and H_0.12MoO₃ during the following cycles. This study reveals new opportunities for the development of high‐power energy storage devices with lightweight elements.     

The photochemical reactivity of bis(tert-butylcyclopentadienyl)molybdenum dihydride: synthesis and structure of dinuclear trans-[(CpBu t)Mo(μ-σ,η 5-C5H3But)H]2

Photolysis of (Cp^{Bu t})₂MoH₂ in benzene yields the molybdenocene derivative trans-[(Cp^{Bu t})Mo(- ,⁵-C₅H₃Bu^t)H]₂. An X-ray diffraction study demonstrate that the molybdenum centers of trans-[(Cp^{Bu t})Mo(- , ⁵-C₅H₃Bu^t)H]₂ are bridged by two , ⁵-C₅H₃Bu^t ligands, each one of which coordinates in a -manner to one molybdenum center and an ⁵-manner to the other, thereby resulting in a centrosymmetric dimer with a structural type that is different from that of [CpMo(- , ⁵-C₅H₄)]₂ which possesses a Mo–Mo bond.
