Ruthenium catalysts are promising for the catalytic release of H2 from ammonia borane (AB). The reaction kinetics and the role of the support in the release of H2 from AB in methanol solvent were studied using a series of Ru nanoparticle catalysts on various supports (SiO2, carbon, γ-Al2O3, and TiO2). Catalysts were synthesized using incipient wetness impregnation and solution deposition (SD) methods and characterized using N2 physisorption, X-ray diffraction, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy, CO diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The reaction kinetics were examined by measuring initial rates using a semi-batch reactor with a constant flow through the headspace analyzed by online mass spectrometry. The Ru/TiO2-SD and Ru/C catalysts had the highest measured initial rates compared to the Ru/SiO2 and Ru/Al2O3. Measured apparent activation energies were relatively similar between all catalysts. Regression of initial rates as a function of AB concentration was done for two different rate equations derived from two different proposed mechanisms for AB methanolysis. Both mechanisms were able to sufficiently describe trends in H2 formation rate versus concentration at low AB concentrations. However, determination of which of the two proposed mechanisms best captures the trends in the data trends was inconclusive due to the lack of a statistically significant difference between degree-of-fit of the two models. Stability tests showed that Ru/C was less prone to deactivation over repeated use compared to Ru supported on the oxides. This study presents a comprehensive examination of the kinetics of AB methanolysis on different supported Ru catalysts; analysis of reaction mechanisms on all catalysts revealed similar apparent first order rate constants from either proposed kinetic models. This study demonstrates that while the support has relatively little influence on the measured reaction rates, carbon may be a preferred support given the decreased deactivation observed relative to the other supports tested.

The telomerization reaction of dienes with alcohols mediated by organopalladium complexes represents a versatile method to convert butadiene into value-added chemicals. The use of aromatic alcohols in the telomerization is still an under-explored area that has attracted increased interest in recent years. In this contribution, we examine the catalytic behaviour of a series of well-defined palladium N-heterocyclic carbene precatalysts (Pd-NHC) in the telomerization of butadiene with aromatic alcohols. The process was optimized by studying the influence of Pd/L ratio, of the base and of the pre-catalyst structure. The versatility of the method was tested employing a series of aromatic alcohols, including lignin-type phenols. In the context of biomass valorisation, an explorative study on the telomerization with lignin was carried out.

Bimetallic catalyst with dual-atom pairs has drawn much attention in heterogeneous catalysis due to their unique synergistic effects. In this work, we prepared a series CeO2 supported Cu-Pt dual sites catalysts and found the optimized one of 2Cu0.025Pt/CeO2 exhibited excellent performance in the hydrogenation of methyl acetate (MA). Its product yield of ethanol was as 4 times as that of 2Cu/CeO2 catalyst under the same reaction conditions, with only 0.025 wt% Pt addition. Combined with various characterizations and contrast samples, it is demonstrated that the post-deposited trace Pt species preferentially located besides the copper atoms and formed Cu-Pt atomic pairs. But when further increasing the loading of Pt, the aggregation of Cu happened, leading to a rapid decrease of activity. To reveal the role of Cu-Pt atom pairs in the hydrogenation of carbon–oxygen bonds reactions, we conducted chemisorption experiments and DFT simulations. It is suggested that Cu-Pt atomic pairs significantly enhanced the adsorption and activation capability of both the MA and H2 molecules during the reaction. These insights may provide synthesis and design strategy for high-performance dual-atom sites catalysts for the carbon–oxygen bonds hydrogenation reactions.

A highly efficient direct carbon monoxide-mediated protocol for converting nitroarenes and carboxylic acids to amides was developed. Investigation of the reaction kinetics and a Hammett study allowed us to reveal the reaction mechanism and the best reaction conditions. An observed apparent partial reaction order by nitroarene in this reaction is 0.5 indicating the switch of the rate-determining step during the course of the reaction. A highly valuable Vorinostat precursor with 99% purity was synthesized in a quantitative yield without any purification; the E-factor of the process was 0.35, which fits to the multiton chemistry reactions. All substrate scope was prepared using the simple Ru3(CO)12 as a catalyst, and TON up to 44,400 was achieved.

Exhaustive reduction of aromatic esters and carboxylic acids with a homogeneous cobalt catalyst

A one-step procedure to exhaustively reduce aromatic esters and carboxylic acids to their corresponding tolyl derivatives is a significant transformation in organic synthesis, which remains challenging in homogeneous catalysis. In this study, it’s achieved by using the well-defined phosphinesulfonate chelated cobalt-based catalyst (Co(dppbsa)), along with NaBArF4 as the basic additive and (MeO)2MeSiH as the reductant. Particularly, this cobalt catalysis proceeds through ether intermediates. Experimental combined theoretical results support it follows an outer-sphere ionic hydrosilylation mechanism and the in situ formed cationic siloxane species are involved in the rate-limiting hydride transfer. The same system also enables the catalytic deoxygenation of aliphatic esters, aliphatic acids, and amides but terminating at the corresponding ethers, alkanols and secondary amines, respectively. These findings open up novel avenues for the catalytic application of phosphinesulfonate chelated complexes, potentially serving as the foundation for the exhaustive reduction of carboxylic skeletons with cobalt.

The hydrogenation of toluene to methylcyclohexane has recently been explored as a potential liquid hydrogen carrier system whereby methylcyclohexane can be safely and efficiently transported. Supported metal catalysts are currently being studied and optimized for this application. In this work, a pronounced support effect is demonstrated. Palladium catalysts on graphitic carbons were found to exhibit significantly enhanced toluene hydrogenation rates versus activated carbons and silica supports. Hydrogen temperature programmed desorption results appear to rule out the role of intercalated hydrogen. Using characterization by powder XRD, Raman and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, it is suggested that the enhancement in activity arises when a critical degree of crystallinity at the support surface enhances toluene adsorption and opens parallel reaction pathways.

Nitroaromatic compounds can be conveniently reduced to anilines with the aid of a variety of chemical reductants. However, chemodivergent and chemoselective reduction of functionalized nitroaromatics into valuable nitroso, azo(xy), (hydr)azo and (hydroxyl)amino derivatives remains rather elusive. Electro- and photochemical strategies utilizing various catalytic systems and reaction media have been tested but most have been directed towards individual reduction products. Here, we present the photoredox-enabled chemodivergent reduction of nitroaromatics to nitroso, bis-(N,O-diacetyl)-N-arylhydroxylamine, azoxy, azo and amino derivatives. The developed protocol utilizes a novel photocatalyst, 6,9-dimethoxydithieno[2,3-f:3′,2′-h]quinoxaline-2,3-dicarbonitrile, and Hantzsch ester/triethanolamine as reductants. With the single organic photocatalyst, the reaction environment, temperature, time and catalyst loading can be varied to achieve chemodivergent photoreduction of nitroaromatics bearing various functional groups and to access a library of valuable products. The application of this methodology to multigram preparations of molecules of pharmaceutical and industrial relevance highlights its practical utility.

Boosting low-concentration toluene oxidation by decorating ultrasmall Pt nanoparticles on La0.8Sr0.2MnO3-δ with hydrogen plasma treatment

Perovskite is one of the most promising materials for catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) because of its special tunable structure and properties as well as high stability. However, it commonly suffers from relatively low catalytic activity due to the low specific surface area and limited numbers of active sites caused by high synthesis temperature required. To improve the reactivity of the perovskite catalyst, a promising strategy is to construct highly dispersed noble metal sites on surfaces perovskite. However, generating highly active metallic sites while exhibiting good thermal stability remains a formidable challenge. Here, it’s demonstrated that the construction of highly efficient and robust platinum (Pt) sites on La0.8Sr0.2MnO3-δ (Pt/LSMO) for toluene oxidation resulted in an almost three-fold increase in toluene conversion with a good stability. The key to the construction of these Pt sites is treating the oxidized Pt species on LSMO with hydrogen (H2) plasma at low temperatures, which leads to the formation of high metallic Pt (Pt0), ultrasmall Pt nanoparticles (∼1.3 nm), and high concentration of oxygen vacancy (Ov). These features facilitate the generation of a large number of highly active and stable Pt0-Mn3+-Ov sites on Pt/LSMO, which contribute to the activation of toluene and oxygen species and, therefore, the catalytic reaction. This investigation demonstrates a promising approach of using the cold plasma technique to design and construct high-performing noble-based perovskite catalysts for toluene oxidation.

Cu-SSZ-39 has garnered significant attention because of its outstanding NH3-SCR activity and hydrothermal stability. To facilitate commercial application of Cu-SSZ-39, it is crucial to streamline the synthesis process, adopt eco-friendly synthesis methods, enhance the catalytic performance, and explore the underlying catalytic mechanisms. Herein, ammonia exchange was skipped and Cu-SSZ-39 was directly synthesized via Cu-exchange of Na-SSZ-39. This approach yielded a Cu-SSZ-39 with superior catalytic performance compared to that prepared using the conventional NH4-SSZ-39. Comparative characterization of the Cu-SSZ-39 catalysts, derived from both Na-SSZ-39 and NH4-SSZ-39 exchanges demonstrated that the positioning of Na cations affected Cu distribution, and controlling Na distribution can enhance deNOx activity. It was also found that while cation locations did not alter the reaction mechanism of Cu-SSZ-39 at low temperature, they did increase the concentration of active NOx intermediates, thereby boosting catalytic performance. This study facilitates a more sustainable synthesis of Cu-SSZ-39 and provides deeper insights into how cations’ distribution in zeolites affects catalytic efficiency.

Ethanol dry reforming is a promising way to produce syngas and hydrogen due to utilization of carbon dioxide and ability to produce ethanol using renewable sources. Main problem associated with ethanol dry reforming reaction is coke formation. Coking suppression can be achieved in a few ways including use of catalysts possessing required oxygen transport properties. High entropy oxides are of interest in application as catalysts for ethanol dry reforming and other reactions due to their structural stability, disordering features and tunability of functional properties. In this work, the catalysts based on Ni and multiple doped La manganites are studied. The oxides are synthesized by modified Pechini and citrate techniques, and the catalysts are prepared by wetness impregnation. The samples are characterized by XRD, TEM with EDX analysis, XPS. Oxygen transport and redox properties are studied by temperature-programmed isotope exchange of oxygen and reduction. According to structural and morphological studies, the samples are nanosized and form perovskite-like structure. The surface features of samples were characterized by XPS. The samples demonstrate a moderate oxygen mobility (D* up to ∼10–12 cm2/s at 700 °C) required for catalytic operation and coking suppression. Tests in ethanol dry reforming demonstrated fine performance and good stability in the reaction conditions.
