Maneechakr, Panya published the artcileSelective conversion of fructose into 5-ethoxymethylfurfural over green catalyst, Product Details of C7H12O3, the main research area is fructose ethoxymethylfurfural green catalyst.

In this study, selective formation of 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) from one-pot conversion of fructose in a co-solvent of ethanol with THF over green SO3H-CD carbon was investigated for the first time using an ultrasonic system. The maximum EMF yield of 74% with 100% fructose conversion was achieved in mild conditions. Moreover, the better selectivity and the longer recyclability (eight cycles) for EMF production via particular reactions such as fructose dehydration and etherification were obviously found while the formation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfual, Et levulinate or humins was inhibited using SO3H-CD carbon, comparing to com. catalysts such as Amberlyst-35, SiO2-Tosic acid and Al2O3.

Brouwer, Thomas published the artcileBiobased entrainer screening for extractive distillation of acetone and diisopropyl ether, Quality Control of 539-88-8, the main research area is biobased entrainer screening extractive distillation acetone diisopropyl ether volatility.

This work focuses on the assessment of biobased solvents for the industrial separation of acetone and diisopropyl ether employing extractive distillation From the exptl. screening of 35 (biobased) solvents at 1000 mbar, 84/16 mol ratio acetone/ diisopropyl ether, and a solvent to feed ratio of 1 (mass based) it was observed that DL-limonene entrained diisopropyl ether, resulting in an acetone relative volatility of 1.44. This is a consequence of the selective repulsion of the low-boiling and more polar acetone by DL-limonene. More extensive vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) anal. over the entire acetone-diisopropyl ether (pseudo-)binary composition range showed that DL-limonene was the only biobased solvent able to break the azeotrope. The exptl. investigated VLE data of this ternary system was successfully correlated with the NRTL and UNIQUAC models. The other solvents that appeared most interesting in the initial screening were water and ethylene carbonate, entraining acetone with the highest observed diispropyl ether relative volatilities of 2.71 and 11.6. Although the high induced relative volatility for the 84/16 mol ratio acetone/ diisopropyl ether appeared interesting, over the entire composition range this resulted however in a shift in location of the azeotrope rather than removing the azeotrope. Therefore, it was concluded that DL-limonene is for this system the best performing biobased entrainer of the screening study. The observations are in agreement with observations from literature on similar systems, where oxygenated polar solvents were seen to have more affinity towards the ketone than towards the ether, while apolar solvents induce a higher volatility of the ketones.

Shao, Yuewen published the artcileSelective conversion of levulinic acid to gamma-valerolactone over Ni-based catalysts: Impacts of catalyst formulation on sintering of nickel, SDS of cas: 539-88-8, the main research area is levulinate gamma valerolactone nickel catalyst formulation sintering.

Selective production of γ-valerolactone (GVL) from hydrogenation of levulinic acid (LA) is challenging over non-noble metal catalysts but attractive due to the promising application of GVL as platform chem. In this study, Ni catalysts supported on Mg-Al and Ni-Al layered double hydroxides (LDH) were synthesized for hydrogenation of LA. LDH as the precursor could create developed porous structure and facilitate dispersion of Ni species. These factors together achieved selective conversion of LA to GVL with maximum yield of 99% over the 2.25Ni-0.75Mg-Al catalyst. The Ni-based catalysts are not active for the ring-opening of GVL. Mg and Al together in 2.25Ni-0.75Mg-Al suppressed the sintering of nickel species in ethanol, achieving much superior reusability to Ni-Mg. However, in water, the transformation of MgO in either Ni-Mg or 2.25Ni-0.75Mg-Al to amorphous Mg(OH)2 led to the collapse of pore structure and remarkable deactivation of the catalysts, while Ni-Al without Mg species performed much better.

Gao, Xiaoqing published the artcileRu/CeO2 catalyst with optimized CeO2 morphology and surface facet for efficient hydrogenation of ethyl levulinate to γ-valerolactone, Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate, the main research area is ruthenium ceria catalyst surface facet ethyl levulinate hydrogenation valerolactone.

Three Ru/CeO2 catalysts with different CeO2 morphol. (nanorod, nanocube and nano-octahedra) mainly exposed (1 1 0) + (1 0 0), (1 0 0) and (1 1 1) facets for hydrogenation of biomass-derived Et levulinate (EL) to valuable γ-valerolactone (GVL). Ru/CeO2-rod with exposed (1 1 0) crystal plane obtained the highest GVL yield (99.4%) and best productivity (13140 h-1). The surface facets of CeO2 supports not only affect the chem. states of Ru species but also tune the concentration of oxygen vacancy in Ru-CeO2 interface. The concentration of oxygen vacancy shows a linear relationship with GVL production rate. DFT calculations indicate that the lactonization of CH3CHOCH2CH2CO* to produce GVL is the rate-determining step in EL hydrogenation, and Ru10/CeO2 (1 1 0) with more oxygen vacancy has low activation energy barrier, compared to Ru10/CeO2 (1 0 0) and Ru10/CeO2 (1 1 1).

Tian, Hongli published the artcileSulfated attapulgite for catalyzing the conversion of furfuryl alcohol to ethyl levulinate: Impacts of sulfonation on structural transformation and evolution of acidic sites on the catalyst, Product Details of C7H12O3, the main research area is ethyl levulinate furfuryl alc sulfated attapulgite sulfonation catalyst.

Attapulgite (ATTP) is an abundant natural magnesium aluminosilicate mineral that can be used as support for manufacturing cost-effective solid acid catalysts. This study mainly focuses on structural change of ATTP and the formation of Bronsted and Lewis acid sites during sulfonation in H2SO4. The results indicate that the sulfonation leads to the drastic change of the crystal phases as sulfuric acid not only plays the roles of grafting the sulfur species but also reacts with the CaO, MgO, Al2O3 and Fe2O3 or their salts in ATTP to form the sulfates, resulting in the substantial change of the porous structure of ATTP. In such a process, the Bronsted acidic sites, which are the main active sites for the conversion of furfuryl alc. (FA) to Et levulinate (EL), are introduced, while the abundance/strength of the Lewis acid sites are enhanced. The yield of EL up to 95.4% is achieved over the H2SO4/ATTP catalyst. The Fe2(SO4)3 and MgSO4 in the catalyst leaches in ethanol but does not affect the catalytic stability. The formed polymer also does not affect much the catalytic activity after their removal via the calcination in air.

Zainol, Muzakkir Mohammad published the artcileEthyl levulinate synthesis from biomass derivative chemicals using iron doped sulfonated carbon cryogel catalyst, Category: esters-buliding-blocks, the main research area is biomass iron sulfonated carbon cryogel catalyst ethyl levulinate.

Biomass-derived intermediate chems., such as furfuryl alc. (FA) and levulinic acid (LA) are feeds for ethanolysis reaction to produce Et levulinate (EL). EL is a promising chem. that can be used as a biofuel additive and precursor for chem. synthesis, such as γ-valerolactone. The present study conducted the ethanolysis of FA and LA using modified carbon cryogel as heterogeneous catalysts for improving the EL yield. The carbon cryogel (UCC) precursor was produced from urea and furfural, and modified via sulfonation. Iron (Fe) doping was then conducted to improve the surface chem. of the catalyst. The catalytic activity of sulfonated carbon cryogel (UCC-S) was evaluated for LA ethanolysis, and the UCC-S-Fe prepared from the incorporation of Fe on UCC-S was utilized to catalyze FA ethanolysis. The effects of reaction parameters (i.e., time, molar ratio of ethanol to feed, catalyst loading, and reaction temperature) were significant on the catalytic performance. High EL yield of 95.8 mol% and 95.4 mol% were obtained from the ethanolysis of LA and FA, resp. The performance of ethanolysis of carbohydrates and various biomass samples was evaluated to determine the EL yield using UCC-S-Fe. Both UCC-S and UCC-S-Fe were characterised using FTIR, XRD, TGA, NH3-TPD, BET, and SEM-EDX. The modification of UCC via sulfonation and Fe-doping improved the catalyst properties, and UCC-S-Fe demonstrated the potential to enhance biomass conversion to EL.

Zhou, Shenghui published the artcileZirconium-lignosulfonate polyphenolic polymer for highly efficient hydrogen transfer of biomass-derived oxygenates under mild conditions, Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate, the main research area is zirconium lignosulfonate polyphenolic polymer hydrogen transfer biomass oxygenate mild.

Both value-added utilization of low-rank renewable feedstocks to prepare catalytic materials and selective transformation of bioderived aldehydes are very attractive topics. Herein, lignosulfonate, a waste byproduct from the paper industry, was simply assembled with ZrCl4 under non-toxic hydrothermal conditions for scalable preparation of Zr-containing polyphenolic biopolymer catalysts (Zr-LS). Systematic characterizations indicated that the strong coordination between Zr4+ and phenolic hydroxyl groups in lignosulfonate led to the formation of strong Lewis acid-base couple sites (Zr4+-O2-) and porous inorganic-organic framework structure (mesopores centered at 6.1 nm), while the inherent sulfonic groups in lignosulfonate could serve as Bronsted acidic sites. The cooperative role of these versatile acid-base sites in Zr-LS afforded excellent catalytic performance for Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) reaction of a broad range of bioderived platform chems. under mild conditions (80 °C), especially of furfural (FF) to furfuryl alc. (FA), in quant. yields (96%) with high FA formation rate of 9600 μmol g-1 h-1 and TOF of 4.37 h-1. Kinetic studies revealed that the activation energy of the MPV reduction of FF was as low as 52.25 kJ/mol, accounting for the high reaction rate. Isotopic labeling experiments demonstrated direct hydrogen transfer from the α-C of 2-PrOH to the α-C of FF on acid-base sites was the rate-determining step. Moreover, Zr-LS showed good recyclability for at least seven reaction cycles.

Heda, Jidnyasa published the artcileHighly efficient micro-meso acidic H-USY catalyst for one step conversion of wheat straw to ethyl levulinate (biofuel additive), SDS of cas: 539-88-8, the main research area is ethyl levulinate wheat straw homogeneous catalyst physicochem property.

Et Levulinate (EL), biofuel additive can blend up to 20% with biodiesel to improve its fuel properties. Till the date, there are reports on homogeneous catalysts (H2SO4, ionic liquid) for synthesis of EL from raw biomass like wheat straw. To best of our knowledge, there is no single report on heterogeneous catalyst for one step synthesis of EL directly from wheat straw. This work is a successful attempt to use heterogeneous micro-meso acidic H-USY (post dealumination and desilication) for direct one step conversion of wheat straw to EL with higher EL yield 24.5 weight%, which is probably the highest so far.

Ji, Na published the artcileA novel Ni/AC catalyst prepared by MOCVD method for hydrogenation of ethyl levulinate to γ-valerolactone, Product Details of C7H12O3, the main research area is nickel catalyst prepared vapor deposition ethyl levulinate hydrogenation valerolactone.

GVL (γ-valerolactone) is identified as an important biomass platform mol. due to its wide application. In this work, a series of novel supported Ni catalysts with different supports and Ni loading were synthesized via metal-organic chem. vapor deposition (MOCVD) method for the hydrogenation of EL (Et levulinate) to GVL. Fourier transform IR spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, nitrogen adsorption/desorption, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the as-synthesized catalysts. The results showed that the 2 weight% Ni/AC(MOCVD) presented superior catalytic activity when compared with the catalyst prepared by impregnation method. This behavior is explained in terms of the smaller Ni nanoparticles (4.28 nm) and higher dispersion on 2 weight% Ni/AC(MOCVD). Among the catalysts, the 2 weight% Ni/AC catalyst exhibited the best catalytic performance with 99.7% EL conversion and 79.8% GVL yield under 1 MPa initial H2 pressure (measured at room temperature) at 250°C for 2 h. In addition, the reaction conditions were optimized and the stability of the catalyst were also investigated. The insights gained from this study in the design of high dispersed Ni particles with smaller particle size via MOCVD method will facilitate the metal-catalyzed hydrogenation of EL to GVL.

Rodiansono published the artcileRecent progress in the direct synthesis of γ-valerolactone from biomass-derived sugars catalyzed by RANEY Ni-Sn alloy supported on aluminium hydroxide, Product Details of C7H12O3, the main research area is levulinic acid hydrogenation valerolactone aluminum hydroxide catalyst.

The direct synthesis of γ-valerolactone (GVL) from biomass-derived sugars (e.g., cellobiose, sucrose, glucose, and fructose) using RANEY nickel-tin alloy supported on aluminum hydroxide (RNi-Sn(x)/AlOH; x is the loading amount of Sn) catalysts has been investigated. A RNi-Sn(1.04)/AlOH (1.04 = loading amount of Sn (mmol)) catalyst exhibited the highest yield of GVL from cellobiose (37%), sucrose (67.3%), glucose (71.6%), and fructose (74.9%), whereas conventional RANEY Ni and RNi/AlOH catalysts produced only C-6 sugar alcs. (sorbitol & mannitol) at 443 K, H2 3.0 MPa for 12 h. The reduction of RNi-Sn(x)/AlOH with H2 at 673-873 K for 1.5 h resulted in the formation of Ni-Sn alloy phases (e.g., Ni3Sn and Ni3Sn2) and caused the transformation of aluminum hydroxide (AlOH) to amorphous alumina (AA). The RNi-Sn(2.14)/AA 873 K/H2 catalyst contained a Ni3Sn2 4 alloy as the major phase, which exhibited the best yield of GVL from sucrose (65.3%) under the same reaction conditions. The RNi-Sn(1.04)/AlOH catalyst was reusable and stable for at least five consecutive reaction runs.
