Three new lanthanide (Ln)–alkylaluminium (Al) bimetallic complexes with the formula [(μ-CF₃CO₂)₂Ln(μ-CF₃CHO₂)AlR₂ · 2THF]₂ (Ln=Nd, Y, R=i-C₄H₉ (i-Bu); Ln=Eu, R=C₂H₅(Et); THF=tetrahydrofuran) were synthesized by the reaction of Ln(CF₃CO₂)₃ (Ln=Nd, Y) with HAl (i-Bu)₂ and of Eu(CF₃CO₂)₃ with AlEt₃, respectively. Their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction at 233 K. [(μ-CF₃CO₂)₂Nd (μ-CF₃CHO₂)Al(i-Bu)₂ · 2THF]₂ (Nd–Al) and [(μ-CF₃CO₂)₂Y(μ-CF₃CHO₂)Al(i- Bu)₂ · 2THF]₂ (Y–Al) are isomorphous and crystallize in space group P 1 with a =12.441(3) Å [12.347(5) Å for Y–Al], b =12.832(3) Å [12.832(4) Å], c =11.334(3) Å [11.292(8) Å], α=104.93 (2)° [104.45(4)°], β=98.47(2)° [98.81(4)°], γ=64.60(2)° [64.30(3)°], R =0.519 [0.113], R _w=0.0532 [0.110], Z =1 and [(μ-CF₃CO₂)₂Eu(CF₃ CHO₂)AlEt₂ · 2THF]₂(Eu–Al) in space group P 2₁/ n with a =11.913(6) Å, b =14.051(9) Å, c =17.920(9) Å, α=101.88(11)°, β=γ=90°, R =0.0509, R _w=0.0471 and Z =2.

Preparation of styrene–divinyl benzene copolymer-supported platinum complexes and their catalytic properties in hydrosilylation

A new type of catalyst for the hydrosilylation of unsaturated monomers with dichloromethylsilane (DCMS) was prepared, which consisted of thiolmethylene-substituted styrene–divinyl benzene copolymer and platinum. When using DCMS as a hydrosilylation agent, these catalysts showed a high activity in the hydrosilylation of vinyl and acetylene monomers as styrene, alkyl vinyl silanes, acetylene, phenyl acetylene, butyl acrylate. The activities of catalysts were not significantly reduced even after 20 reuse cycles.     

Dimerization of Acetylene to Monovinylacetylene (MVA) by Bimetallic Zr/Cu Catalyst in Nieuwland Catalytic System

Nieuwland catalyst is a key step in the dimerization of acetylene. Various zirconium metal additives incorporating Nieuwland catalysts were prepared, and their catalytic performances were assessed in acetylene dimerization. Different characterization techniques (i.e., thermogravimetric analysis, temperature-programmed reduction, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, hydrogen ion concentration measurement and transmission electron microscopy) were employed in this study. The best catalytic performance was obtained over zirconium-acetylacetonate-incorporated Nieuwland catalysts, with an acetylene conversion of 53.3% and a monovinylacetylene selectivity of 87.4%. Based on these results, the zirconium acetylacetonate additive could reduce the types of transition state complexes, and it could also change the morphology of the catalyst. In addition, the additives could significantly inhibit the occurrence of trimerization products and polymers. Hence, the conversion of acetylene, monovinylacetylene selectivity, and stability of the Nieuwland catalysts were enhanced.

采用等体积浸渍法经程序升温焙烧制备了Cu/SiO2催化剂,考察了该催化剂对苯胺和正丙醇气相合成N-丙基苯胺的催化活性和选择性.常压下,当反应温度为260℃时,Cu/SiO2上正丙醇转化率达到100%,N-丙基苯胺选择性超过92%.X射线衍射分析表明,该催化剂具有较好的铜结晶度.     

Mo/HZSM-5催化剂上甲烷无氧芳构化反应——HZSM-5分子筛脱铝的影响

采用两种不同的脱铝方法对HZSM-5分子筛进行了预处理,并利用MAS NMR和吸附吡啶的FT-IR对分子筛的结构和酸性质进行了表征,考察了分子筛的脱铝程度对Mo基催化剂上甲烷芳构化反应性能的影响.结果表明,HZSM-5分子筛的酸性过强或B酸量不足,均会导致催化剂严重积炭,但积炭成因不同.母体HZSM-5分子筛上的强B酸中心的存在可促使催化剂上反应中间物种深度脱氢,造成催化剂在反应过程中严重积炭.经水热处理的HZSM-5分子筛,骨架铝脱出严重,造成B酸活性中心不足以及部分微孔阻塞,不利于C2中间物种芳构化,导致芳烃选择性显著降低.经高温N2处理的HZSM-5分子筛,骨架铝脱出相对缓和,在消除母体分子筛上强B酸中心的同时,保留了较多的弱B酸中心,既可满足C2中间物种芳构化反应的需要,又可有效抑制催化剂积炭,导致甲烷芳构化反应性能显著改善.     

Y2O3涂层负载Pd整体式催化剂的制备和催化性能

以Y(NO3)3为前驱体制备了Y2O3涂层的堇青石蜂窝陶瓷载体.扫描电子显微镜、X射线能谱和超声波振荡等表征结果表明,Y2O3涂层不但具有良好的抗振荡性和粘结强度,而且具有很强的吸附催化剂活性组分(H2PdCl4)的能力,适合制备负载型Pd催化剂.以甲苯和乙酸乙酯完全燃烧为模型反应考察了催化剂的活性,发现以Y2O3涂层堇青石蜂窝陶瓷为载体的整体式Pd/Y2O3催化剂具有良好的催化活性和热稳定性,甲苯和乙酸乙酯催化燃烧的T99分别为210和300℃;催化剂经900℃焙烧4 h后,T99仅提高20℃,表明催化剂具有很高的热稳定性.催化剂的X射线衍射、拉曼光谱和程序升温还原结果表明,Pd/Y2O3催化剂经低温焙烧时,Y2O3和PdO均高度分散在堇青石蜂窝陶瓷的表面,而高温焙烧使催化剂活性组分PdO晶粒增大,从而导致催化剂活性下降.     

湿式氧化工艺中颗粒Ru催化剂的活性和稳定性
