Bismuth is renowned for its exceptional safety, highlighted by numerous examples demonstrating its low toxicity. Considering this, we present a novel, active, and reusable heterogeneous bismuth catalyst (Bi-NC/γ-Al2O3) for chemoselective hydrogenation of nitroarenes to aryl amines using molecular hydrogen. The Bi-NC/γ-Al2O3 catalyst was synthesized through a simple impregnation method followed by pyrolysis at 700°C, for 2 h under a nitrogen atmosphere. The physicochemical properties of fresh and spent Bi-NC/γ-Al2O3 catalysts were comprehensively characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (P-XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), N2 adsorption-desorption, H2-temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR), NH3-temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The bismuth content in the Bi-NC/γ-Al2O3 catalyst was estimated by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The catalyst demonstrated exceptional performance and selectivity in reducing a wide variety of nitroarenes to their corresponding aryl amines, achieving good to excellent yields (36 examples). Furthermore, the Bi-NC/γ-Al2O3 catalyst was applied to the selective hydrogenation of nitro groups in three commercially available drugs. Additionally, five pharmaceutical intermediates, including linezolid, Norfloxacin, Carbamazepine, paracetamol, and tizanidine, were synthesized up to a ∼1 g scale with a quantitative yield, showcasing the catalyst activity and selectivity. Further, the reaction mechanism was elucidated by tracking the intermediates (through GC-FID & GC-MS) and employing Density Functional Theory (DFT). Notably, the Bi-NC/γ-Al2O3 catalyst is stable, recovered, and reused for four cycles without losing significant activity and selectivity.

The catalytic performance of a high-curvature single-atom catalyst is highly dependent on its geometry and the type of metal atoms it carries. This review uses a combination of extensive literature research and theoretical analysis to comprehensively analyze several key aspects of high-curvature single-atom catalysts, including dimension, energy, reaction mechanism, radius of curvature, reaction selectivity, size, different metal atoms, and different types of reactions. In this paper, the unique advantages of high-curvature single-atom catalysts are successfully summarized and refined. On the one hand, it has been found that the surface of this catalyst is highly curved, which promotes the adsorption and reaction of atoms. On the other hand, this paper states that choosing the right radius of curvature is essential to optimize the catalytic process. The comprehensive literature analysis in recent years may provide important reference and enlightenment for researchers, promote the further development of the field of catalysis, and develop more advanced high-curvature single-atom catalytic materials.

Anthropogenic emission of CO2 severely hinders sustainable development of human society. Photocatalysis has emerged as a promising and environmentally friendly approach for converting CO2 into one or two carbon compounds, and is anticipated to contribute positively to achieving the dual carbon goal. In recent years, TiO2-based catalysts have demonstrated their effectiveness in the photocatalytic CO2 reduction. This article provides a review of the principles and applications of TiO2-based catalysts for CO2 photocatalytic reduction, focusing on four common modification strategies: morphology control, co-catalyst loading, surface defect introduction, and heterostructure design. On this basis, this article summarizes the challenges faced in further increasing the efficiency of TiO2-based photocatalytic CO2 reduction, and looks forward to possible future development directions.

Photocatalytic H2 production presents great significance for sustainable development of energy and economy. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have received huge attention in photocatalytic applications. Herein, crystalline OH-COFs were synthesized through the transformation of imine bond to quinoline ring via Povarov reaction. TiO2-COF exhibited excellent photocatalytic performance for H2 production in H2O/alcohol system. This strategy provides available method for the design and synthesis of highly efficient photocatalysts based on COF-inorganic semiconductor hybridization.

In this study, a series of hydroxyl apatite catalysts (HA-xAl) with varying aluminum doping levels were synthesized using a hydrothermal method. The influence of aluminum doping on the activity and catalytic stability of HFC-152a dehydrofluorination was systematically investigated. Reaction rates were normalized according to the aluminum doping amount. The results revealed that the HA-5Al catalyst exhibited a high specific reaction rate of 16,500 mmol·h⁻¹ ·mol⁻¹ Al, indicating a significant enhancement in catalytic efficiency due to aluminum incorporation into the hydroxyapatite. Furthermore, the HA-20Al catalyst demonstrated a conversion exceeding 63 % after 100 h of reaction. This remarkable stability is attributed to the formation of a metastable active species, F-Al-O, which likely results from the limited interaction with the hydroxyapatite structure. Additionally, the optimal acidity and highly dispersed active sites of catalysts contribute to reduced carbon deposition and further enhance its stability.

This work presents the results of the methylation of isosorbide to produce dimethyl isosorbide using dimethyl carbonate as methylating agent and reaction medium and a MgAl mixed oxide derived from the calcination of a commercial hydrotalcite as basic catalyst. This reaction was carried out using three types of reactors: a continuous liquid flow reactor and two batch reactors, the first one working at autogenous pressure and the other one at atmospheric pressure. The best results were achieved for the atmospheric pressure reactor, with the dimethyl isosorbide yield being 100 % at 110 ºC, after 8 h. Under these experimental conditions, the catalyst showed a loss of selectivity towards dimethyl isosorbide with consecutive catalytic cycles, reaching approximately 50 % dimethyl isosorbide yield after 5 catalytic cycles, but maintaining the isosorbide conversion at 100 %. The reaction mechanism most probably relies on the cooperation between the catalyst and the dimethyl carbonate. With the help of computational studies, it has been demonstrated that the adsorption of dimethyl carbonate on the catalyst takes place through the carbonyl group and that it adsorbs on either Mg2 + or Al3+ ions. Finally, the assignation of the FTIR bands corresponding to the adsorbed dimethyl carbonate species revealed that it undergoes a surface reaction, leading to the formation of both methoxide and monomethyl carbonate adsorbed species. The presence of such species was identified as responsible for the changing pattern selectivity of the reaction during the reutilization of the catalyst.

CO2 hydrogenation presents a crucial pathway for carbon circularity. The activation, adsorption, and hydrogen spillover are key processes in CO2 hydrogenation. This study investigates the effects of hydrogen spillover induced by Pt on CO2 hydrogenation over Pt-promoted Co-Al catalysts. A series of Pt-promoted Co-Al catalysts were synthesized via co-precipitation and employed for CO2 hydrogenation. The optimized Pt-promoted Co-Al catalyst efficiently converts CO2, leading to the formation of methane (46.6 mmol gcat−1 h−1), methanol (509.4 μmol gcat−1 h−1), and higher alcohols (220.6 μmol gcat−1 h−1). The Pt-promoted Co-Al catalysts facilitate hydrogen spillover, optimizing the catalysts’ reducibility and exposing more active sites. Moreover, the hydrogen adsorption is weakened due to the Pt induced hydrogen spillover, which facilitates the formation of *HCOO, *CH3, and *CO intermediates. This in turn facilitate the coupling between *HCOO/*CO and *CH3, enhancing the formation of higher alcohols.

The process of converting cellulose into short-chain alcohols is a critical component of biomass valorization. In this study, we utilized an anion-cation co-directed hydrothermal method and wet impregnation to synthesize a hierarchical MFI zeolite with isolated Ni and W sites. We employed linear correlation analysis to evaluate the influence of pore size, site accessibility, and acidity on product selectivity. Balancing hydrogenation and acidic sites on the catalyst enhanced retro-aldol condensation and hydrogenation during cellulose conversion. Surface acidic sites accelerated glucose retro-aldol condensation, while micropore acidic sites aided in ethylene glycol hydrogenolysis. The close proximity of Ni and W facilitated high selectivity and yield of ethanol through bimetallic synergy. This research presented a novel strategy for preparing hierarchical zeolites with isolated metal sites and provides clarity on the cooperative roles of active sites in Ni-W bimetallic catalysts for cellulose conversion.

Propylene, a crucial component in the chemical industry, holds a prominent position as the second-largest material within petrochemicals, serving as a foundational element for major synthetic materials and essential industrial chemicals such as acetone and isopropanol. Conventional propylene production methods confront environmental challenges, promoting the investigation of alternative pathways, such as direct propane dehydrogenation. While commercial PtSn or PtGa-based catalysts have demonstrated success in propane dehydrogenation, further enhancements are imperative to mitigate operational costs. Therefore, this study utilizes four lanthanum-group elements (La, Ce, Pr, and Nd) with varying loadings (1 wt%, 3 wt%, and 5 wt%) to modify PtGa/Al2O3 catalyst, resulting in improved conversion, selectivity, and stability. Furthermore, this research establishes a clear structure-activity relationship based on some key performance descriptors, underscoring the effectiveness influence of reducibility, total acid concentration, and total coke content in conversion, selectivity, and stability. The impact of strong metal-support interactions on conversion and stability should also be considered, highlighting the complexities in accessing catalytic performances. The exploration of diverse performance descriptors revealed in this study contributes to the rational design of catalysts for propane dehydrogenation, addressing ongoing efforts to refine and tailor catalysts for efficient propane dehydrogenation. This study also offers valuable insights for optimizing catalytic performance across various industrial reactions, further advancing the field of catalysis and promoting sustainable and efficient chemical processes.

While commercial PtSn or PtGa-based catalysts have demonstrated success in propane dehydrogenation, further enhancements are imperative to mitigate operational costs. Therefore, this study utilizes four lanthanum-group elements (La, Ce, Pr, and Nd) with varying loadings (1 wt%, 3 wt%, and 5 wt%) to modify PtGa/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> catalyst, resulting in improved conversion, selectivity, and stability.

The impact of strong metal-support interactions on conversion and stability should also be considered, highlighting the complexities in accessing catalytic performances. The exploration of diverse performance descriptors revealed in this study contributes to the rational design of catalysts for propane dehydrogenation, addressing ongoing efforts to refine and tailor catalysts for efficient propane dehydrogenation. This study also offers valuable insights for optimizing catalytic performance across various industrial reactions, further advancing the field of catalysis and promoting sustainable and efficient chemical processes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":243,"journal":{"name":"Applied Catalysis A: General","volume":"691 ","pages":"Article 120055"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143135091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Strong metal support interaction (SMSI) between precious metals and metal oxide support is an effective strategy to improve catalyst activity. However, the interfacial effects of SMSI on the catalyst surface are not clear. In this paper, Pt/MnO2 catalysts with different MnO2 crystal structures (β- and γ-) are used as research objects, and operando TPR-DRIFTS-MS is used as characterization technique. Pt/β-MnO2 exhibited the highest CO oxidation activity (200 °C) and CO2 selectivity (100 °C) due to its excellent redox properties. Among them, β-MnO2 surface Pt mainly exists in the form of elemental Pt, while γ-MnO2 surface Pt mainly exists in the form of PtO2. Different forms of Pt have positive and negative effects on different MnO2 crystals. DFT results show that Pt/β-MnO2 has strong adsorption capacity for CO. Operando DRIFTS results indicate that Pt/β-MnO2 surface PtO first reacts with CO to produce PtOv (Ov represent oxygen vacancy) at low temperature. As the temperature rises, MnO and Pt-O-Mn also participate in CO reaction, forming MnOv, Pt-Ov-Mn and gas-phase CO2. It is worth noting that the formation of Pt-Ov-Mn plays an important role in the activation of O2. The surface carbonate of the catalyst inhibited the activation of Pt-Ov-Mn. More PtO sites are conducive to the production of monodentate carbonate and the easier decomposition at low temperature, which is the decisive step of CO oxidation. These findings provide strong support for understanding the effect of SMSI effect on the intrinsic configuration of catalysts.
