M., Germany SELECTIVE CATALYTIC OXIDATIONS OF ALKYLAROMATIC COMPOUNDS Focused to the guidelines of ‘Sustainable Development* ‘Responsible Care' and Customer Satisfaction ’, modern production processes are critically assessed on their balance between their ecological benefits and their economical parameters as well as their value to the community. Also in the area of fine chemicals, it is obvious that more and more processes are devolved which save feedstock, reduce emissions and minimize the potential for safety hazards: Less additive but more integrated protection of the environment yielding ecologically highly valuable processes. The described production of aromatic carboxylic acids is an ideal example for such a modern process. Nowadays the synthesis of derivatives of benzoic acid utilizes air as Ideal oxidant and acetic acid as environmental unquestionable solvent. The major byproduct of the oxidation reaction is water in some cases, dependend on the substrate also carbon dioxidej Major advantages of the process are • High environmental acceptance • low manufacturing costs • minimization of risks and potential hazards • high flexibility in product change • high space time yields and thus high capacities realized in small operating units • high quality of the products in connection with easy work up. Aromatic Carboxylic Acids are highly important, synthetically useful fine chemicals and building blocks for different types of polymers. The industrial importance of terephthalic acid or DMT (dimethyl terephthalate), both building blocks for PET, and phthalic acid anhydride (PTA) is obvious. PET is a basic monomer for polyester polymers used for the production of end-user products such as bottles, video tapes or fine fashions, as well as environmentally beneficial packaging materials. Aromatic polyamides (aramides) were the first in the series of high-performance specialty thermoplastics. Such polymers named Kevlar® are used in bulletproof vests or the first commercially available LCPs. Nomex® is used as substitute for asbestos. In the area of high performance polymers there is a still growing market interest in sophisticated building blocks bearing multiple carboxylic functionality's on aromatic systems, the latter often being connected by fluorinated spacer groups as in the high price, electronic grade polyimide monomers 2,2- bis(3',4'-anhydrodicarboxyphenyl)hexaflouropropane, both produced via oxidation of the corresponding o-xylene precursors. —------------------------------- -------- DGMK-Tagungsbericht 9803, 3-931850-44-7,1998 DE99G2093 10 As fine chemicals they are mostly used as intermediates to pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals or pigments. Here, the current market volume is in the range of 16 kto/a corresponding to ca. 220 Mio DM. The obvious commercial importance of the further developed Amoco-MC technology has thus stimulated an enormous amount of research activity which has resulted in more than 350 different types of aromatic substrates that have been oxidized using this method. A review of the literature since the mid 1980s concerning the oxidation of alkyl-, acyl-, or formyl-substituted aromatic compounds with air as oxidant and transition metal salts as catalysts reveals trends which may be tentatively summarized

N and Stroeva A.R Gubkin Russian State University of Oil and Gas, Russia rocesses of petroleum hydrocarbons (HC) formation in literature have been discussing for 200 years. At present time there Pare two main theories of oil formation: organic (sedimentary-migration) and inorganic (abiotic). It is believed that n-alkanes formed from n-saturated fatty acids by decarboxylation. It is known that in the original organic matter (OM) fatty acids with an even number of carbon atoms in the molecule are prevail. In case sapropelic OM, low molecular weight acids (n-C16, n-C18 and n-C20) are mainly produced and if OM is humus higher molecular (n-C26, n-C28 and n-C30) are produced. It is important to note there are high molecular n-alkanes C23, C25, C27, C29, C31 and C33 in soil OM. Bacterial synthesis of n-alkanes could be accounted by decarboxylation with relatively high temperatures. However, this phenomenon doesn’t support by experiment. In this work we studied, if n-alkanes with an odd number of carbon atoms in the molecule formed by bacteria. The objects of study were the hydrocarbon aerobic bacteria Arthrobacter sp. RV and the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa RM, that are able to both aerobic and anaerobic growth in the process of denitrification.

These conceptual tools in which one or several fragments of the molecule are linked to metal grafted on the surface (M-H, M-R, M=CR2, M≡CR, M=O, M=NR) became the logical continuation of the abundant work published in the field of Surface Organometallic Chemistry (SOMC). To note, SOMC has produced new catalytic reactions (e.g. Ziegler Natta depolymerisation, alkane metathesis, non-oxidative methane coupling etc…) and had improved the activity or selectivity or life time of known ones. The catalytic mechanisms employs the concepts of molecular chemistry (organic, organometallic, coordination chemistry) to explain how bonds can be broken and reformed. In this context, the reactivity of “surface organometallic fragments” (SOMF) or Surface Coordination fragments (SCF) is pivotal to the outcome of the catalysis.

  • Alkyne Selective Hydrogenation with Mono- and Bimetallic-Anchored Catalysts Bimetallic-Anchored Catalysts
    Provisional chapter Chapter 2 Alkyne Selective Hydrogenation with Mono- and Alkyne Selective Hydrogenation with Mono- and Bimetallic-Anchored Catalysts Bimetallic-Anchored Catalysts Cecilia Lederhos, Carolina Betti, Domingo Liprandi, EdgardoCecilia Lederhos, Cagnola Carolina and Mónica Betti, Quiroga Domingo Liprandi, Edgardo Cagnola and Mónica Quiroga Additional information is available at the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/64866 Abstract Partial hydrogenation of alkynes has industrial and academic relevance on a large scale; industries such as petrochemical, pharmacological and agrochemical use these compounds as raw material. Finding an economic, active and selective catalyst for the production of alkenes through partial hydrogenation of alkynes is thus an important challenge. Mono- and bimetallic catalysts (palladium, ruthenium and nickel) were synthetized by the incipient wetness technique using gamma alumina and an activated carbon as supports. The catalysts were characterized by inductively coupled plasma, hydrogen chemisorption, temperature-programmed reduction and X-ray photoelec- tronic spectroscopy (XPS). The objective of this work is to study 1-heptyne-selective hydrogenation using supported catalysts influenced by different factors: (a) pretreat- ment reduction temperature, (b) reaction temperature, (c) type of support, (d) metal loading, (e) precursor salt and (f) addition of a second metal to monometallic palladium catalyst. The Lindlar commercial catalyst, commonly used in these types of reactions, was used for comparative purposes. XPS technique allowed verifying that the presence of electron-deficient species on the catalyst surface with high metal loading affects the conversion and selectivity to the desired product. Nevertheless, the influence of geometrical effects and/or mixed active sites in the catalysts, as well as metal-metal and metal-support interactions, cannot be neglected.

Abstract: In this short review paper we have assembled the main characteristics of partial oxidation reactions (oxidative dehydrogenation and selective oxidation to olefins or oxygenates, as aldehydes and carboxylic acids and nitriles), as well as total oxidation, particularly for depollution, environmental issues and wastewater treatments. Both gas-solid and liquid-solid media have been considered with recent and representative examples within these fields. We have also discussed about their potential and prospective industrial applications. Particular attention has been brought to new raw materials stemming from biomass and to liquid-solid catalysts cases. This review paper also summarizes the progresses made in the use of unconventional activation methods for performing oxidation reactions, highlighting the synergy of these technologies with heterogeneous catalysis. Focus has been centered on usual catalysts activation methods but also on less usual ones, such as the use of ultrasounds, microwaves, grinding (mechanochemistry) and photo-activated processes, as well as their combined use.

  • ACTIVATION of N-HEXANE USING VANADIUM-EXCHANGED ZEOLITES by THIRUSHA NAICKER
    ACTIVATION OF n-HEXANE USING VANADIUM-EXCHANGED ZEOLITES BY THIRUSHA NAICKER Submitted in fulfilment of the academic requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Chemistry, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban July 2010 As the candidate’s supervisor I have/have not approved this thesis/dissertation for submission Signed: _______________ Name: _______________ Date: __________ DEDICATION To my dad and mum, I love you lots. ii ABSTRACT The influence of the form of the ZSM-5 zeolite, vanadium content and the elimination of the exterior surface acidity on the activity and selectivity of n-hexane oxidation was studied using a fixed bed reactor. Blank reactor studies (carborundum packed reactor) showed no conversion below 450°C with the highest conversion (8%) at 500°C. The dominant products were found to be carbon oxides (Sel./% = 90) with minor selectivities to the hexene isomers (7%) and the remainder being cracked products, THF and benzene. H-ZSM-5 with different SiO2/Al2O3 ratios (100 and 320) and Na-ZSM-5 (SiO2/Al2O3 ratio of 100) were tested under non-oxidative and oxidative conditions. Under oxidative conditions as the ratio of the SiO2/Al2O3 increased, the aluminium content decreased and so too did the cracking ability of the zeolite (i.e. yield of cracked products dropped from 36% to 8%). However, the use of the Na- form of ZSM-5 completely eliminated acid cracking. Under oxidative conditions H-ZSM-5 (100) was found to be more active and resulted in higher formation of cyclic and aromatic compounds. With increasing time on-stream and higher temperatures the catalyst was found to deactivate.

The alcohols are stabilized in the form of their esters; The oxidation leads predominantly to the formation of which are resistant to further oxidation and hence very secondary alcohols consisting of a mixture of all possible high selectivity is achieved.[2,3] isomers with the same number of carbon atoms in the Paraffin oxidation mechanism molecules as the initial hydrocarbons. The secondary 1st stage alcohols which are oxidation products of paraffin exhibit excellent hydrolytic, oxidative and color stability, because of Hydrocarbon → Hydro peroxide the nature of their branching.

The use of mechanical action force is one of the promising ways to improve the activity of heterogeneous catalysts designed to simplify the manufacturing process lines, improving the efficiency of catalytic processes and reduce the cost of the target product. Given the importance of technology for methanol production on copper-zinc-aluminum oxide catalysts and high demand for metha- nol in the world [1–3], clarification of the peculiarities of the process of methanol production by synthesis gas conversion in terms of mechanical load on the catalyst is important in scientific and applied ways.
