Combination of partial oxidation of methane (POM) with carbon dioxide reforming of methane (CRM) has been studied over Ru-based catalysts at 550℃.POM,CRM and combined reaction were performed over 8wt%Ru/γ-Al2O 3 and the results show that both POM and CRM contribute to the combined reaction,between which POM plays a more important role.Moreover,the addition of Ce to Ru-based catalyst results in an improvement in the activity and CO selectivity under the adopted reaction conditions.The Ce-doped catalyst was characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption,SEM,XRD,TPR,XPS and in situ DRIFTS.The mechanism has been studied by in situ DRIFTS together with the temperature distribution of catalyst bed.The mechanism of the combined reaction is more complicated and it is the combination of POM and CRM mechanisms in nature.The present paper provides a new catalytic system to activate CH4 and CO2 at a rather low temperature.
Highly efficient solvent-free coupling reaction of carbon dioxide(CO2)and epichlorohydrin catalyzed by meso-tetraphenyl porphyrin magnesium(MgTPP)in the presence of triethylamine as co-catalysts is reported.As a chlorophyll-like catalyst,MgTPP showed excellent activity for the coupling reaction of CO2 and epichlorohydrin to chloropropene carbonate,in which the turnover number could reach up to 9200.Moreover,different factors including the amount of catalyst,reaction temperature,pressure and time were systematically investigated and the optimal reaction conditions were obtained(epichlorohydrin 50 mmol,MgTPP 5.0×10- 3mmol,triethylamine 6.25×10-3 mmol,140°C,1.5 MPa,8 h).A plausible two-pathway mechanism for the coupling reaction of CO 2and epichlorohydrin is proposed to propound the catalysis of MgTPP.
Polyurea-entrapped palladium nanoclusters have been prepared by interfacial polymerization in W/O emulsion and showed high thermal stability and chemical stability with the content of 0.12 mmol g-1 Pd.This catalyst exhibited dual catalytic activity for reduction of nitro compounds and hydrodehalogenation of aromatic chlorides in atmospheric hydrogen with 100% yield for reduction of nitro compounds and >99% yield for hydrodehalogenation of aromatic chlorides.This immobilizing method was particularly effective and eliminated the need of special chelating groups.
