  • The Mechanism and Kinetics of Thiophene Adsorption On
    THE MECHANISM AND KINETICS OF THIOPHENE ADSORPTION ON NICKEL AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES AND PRESSURES A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London and for the Diploma of Imperial College Khaliq Ahmed Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemical Technology Imperial College of Science and Technology London SW7 United Kingdom January 1987 ABSTRACT An experimental and modelling study of the kinetics of thiophene adsorption on nickel at ambient temperatures and pressures has been made. The objective of the study was to acquire a better understanding of the mechanism involved than is currently available. The reactant (1000 ppm thiophene in hydrogen) was contacted with a nickel on gamma alumina catalyst. Experiments were carried out in a microbalance flow reactor and the uptake of thiophene by the catalyst was recorded as a function of time. Prior to adsorption of thiophene, the catalyst was characterised in terms of its total BET surface area, pore-size distribution, active Ni-area and average crystallite size. All measurements were performed in situ except for that of the crystallite size which was determined by x-ray line broadening. The experimental study revealed that at room temperature thiophene adsorbs on nickel either directly as thiophene molecules, or as a hydrogenated species namely, thiophane ; no gaseous products eluted indicating that thiophene was not undergoing decomposition under these conditions. Overall uptake of thiophene by nickel in the catalyst showed that there were at least two possible modes of adsorption. It is postulated that these are perpendicular and coplanar. The crystallite size of nickel in the catalyst was varied by changing the loading of the catalyst, or by 2 sintering in an atmosphere of hydrogen at elevated temperatures.

Hoffmann-La Roche, for his important contributions to catalysis. ABSTRACT. The reduction of nitro compounds to the corresponding amines is one of the most utilized catalytic processes in the fine and bulk chemical industry. The latest development of catalysts with cheap metals like Fe, Co, Ni and Cu has led to their tremendous achievements over the last years prompting to their greater application as “standard” catalysts. In this review we will comprehensively discuss the use of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts based on non-noble 3d-metals for the reduction of nitro compounds using various reductants. The different systems will be revised considering both the catalytic performances and synthetic aspects highlighting also their advantages and disadvantages. 1 Contents 1.

MESTRADO EM HISTÓRIA E FILOSOFIA DAS CIÊNCIAS 2011 Resumo Este trabalho apresenta o primeiro estudo sistemático da história da química dos boranos, compostos de boro e hidrogénio cujas estruturas e natureza das ligações químicas desafiaram de forma irredutível a teoria da ligação química até aos anos cinquenta do século XX. Actualmente, a química do boro é um dos mais promissores ramos da química, com um vasto leque de aplicações às indústrias química e farmacéutica, à nano-tecnologia e à medicina. Neste último ramo, destacam-se as aplicações na luta contra o cancro e no desenvolvimento de medicamentos com um elevado grau de especificidade e inovação. Num futuro próximo, espera-se que a química do boro seja capaz de operar uma verdadeira revolução social, posicionando-se como uma poderosa alternativa à química do carbono que será capaz de oferecer todo um novo mundo de aplicações inéditas. Estas são o resultado da fascinante capacidade do átomo de boro para se ligar de formas surpreendentes e formar complexas estruturas que se baseiam em compostos de boro e hidrogénio (boranos). A grande apetência do boro para se ligar ao oxigénio impede que os boranos existam na natureza. A grande susceptibilidade destes à acção da humidade e do ar torna-os especialmente instáveis e difíceis de manusear e preservar.

  • Sodium Borohydride Production and Utilisation for Improved Hydrogen Storage
    Sodium Borohydride Production and Utilisation for Improved Hydrogen Storage Sean S. Muir BE (Chemical) Hons I, BSc A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in July 2013 Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology Abstract Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) has been the subject of extensive investigation as a potential hydrogen storage material. Its advantages include its ability to be stored as a stabilised aqueous solution and hydrolysed catalytically on demand, providing hydrogen safely, controllably, and at mild conditions. However, several drawbacks were identified by the US Department of Energy (DOE) in their “No-Go” recommendation in 2007; namely, the limitations on its gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity (GHSC) and its prohibitive manufacturing cost. This thesis aims to address some of the major issues associated with the use of NaBH4 for hydrogen storage. Efforts have been spread across three key research areas, which were identified in a review of the recent literature: Synthesising an efficient, durable, and inexpensive catalyst for the hydrolysis of aqueous NaBH4 solution The design of a hydrogen storage system based on NaBH4 which can overcome the GHSC constraints imposed by the solubility of its hydrolysis by-product, NaBO2 The development of a novel recycling process for regenerating NaBH4 from NaBO2, with the goal of reducing its production cost to within the DOE’s target range of $2-4 per gallon of gasoline equivalent (gge) To achieve the first goal, a new electroless plating method was developed for preparing cobalt-boron (Co-B) catalysts supported on shaped substrates. This method involves mixing the plating solutions at low temperature (<5 oC), in contrast to previously employed methods, which are generally carried out at room temperature or higher.

  • Terminal and Non Terminal Alkynes Partial Hydrogenation Catalyzed By
    Chapter 6 Terminal and Non Terminal Alkynes Partial Hydrogenation 8 Catalyzed by Some d Transition Metal Complexes in Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Systems Domingo Liprandi, Edgardo Cagnola, Cecilia Lederhos, Juan Badano and Mónica Quiroga Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/47742 1. Introduction The synthesis and manufacture of food additives, flavours and fragrances, as well as pharmaceutical, agrochemical and petrochemical substances, examples of fine and industrial chemicals, are closely related to selective alkyne hydrogenation [1,2]. Regarding alkyne partial hydrogenation, the main goal is to avoid hydrogenation to single bond and in the case of non-terminal alkynes is to give priority to the highest possible conversion and selectivity to the (Z)-alkene [3-5]. These kind of reactions are carried out by means of a catalytic process where control over conversion and selectivity can be exerted in different ways, e.g.: by varying a) the active species or b) the support, and/or by adding c) a promoter / a poison / a modifier, and finally, and not less important, by modifying the reaction temperature. Examples of factor b) are: mesoporous [6] and siliceous [7] materials, a pumice [8], carbons [9], and hydrotalcite [3]. Cases of factor c) are the typical Lindlar catalyst (palladium heterogenized on calcium carbonate poisoned by lead acetate or lead oxide, Pd-CaCO3-Pb) [10] and the presence of quinoline and triphenylphosphine [11,12]. Research on factors a) and c) include bi-elemental systems such as Ni-B, Pd-Cu, etc. [13-19]. An example of the effect of the reaction temperature is a paper by Choi and Yoon, who found that the selectivity to (Z)-alkene increases when the temperature decreases using a Ni catalyst [20].

  • Towards Nickel Boride Catalyzed C-C Coupling Reactions
    KTH Royal Institute of Technology KD200X - Master Thesis Towards nickel boride catalyzed C-C coupling reactions Author: Supervisor: Agnes Lako Professor Peter Diner July 10, 2017 Abstract This thesis focuses on the study of nickel boride as a catalyst in various coupling reactions. The nickel boride catalyst was investigated in three different coupling re- actions, the experiments aimed at understanding the activity and catalytic properties of nickel boride. We successfully synthetized the nickel boride catalyst, alongside with the cobalt and iron boride. Different methods of preparation were compared and we concluded, that the differences in the preparation, such as solvent and atmosphere, influence the activity of the catalyst in coupling reactions. We found that the most suitable solvent for preparing nickel boride is anhydrous methanol, thus we proceeded our research with this catalyst. In the case of the Sonogashira cross-coupling we found that the homocoupling of the acetylene starting material is a side reaction we could not exclude. However, with the proper solvent it is possible to shift the reaction towards homocoupling, without the formation of the heterocoupling product. Thus, we decided to investigate the Glaser homocoupling between acetylenes. In the case of the Sonogashira coupling only TLC was used to examine the reaction mixture. However, in the case of Glaser coupling, after pre-investigations we developed a gas chromatography method for analyzing the reaction mixtures. We learned, that the homocoupling only results in trace amounts (2-4%) of product. Previous investigations in our research group showed, that the nickel boride could catalyze Suzuki-Miyaura-type couplings. Examining this reaction all three metal borides were tested; however the reactions only led to the desired product with nickel boride.
