Heterogeneous carbon-supported catalysts

Carbonaceous materials are widely used as supports for the preparation of heterogeneous catalysts. The use of carbon as a catalyst support presents many obvious advantages, mainly robustness, ease of recovery and cheapness. But, in spite of these very interesting aspects, carbon supports and materials derived from them are generally difficult to characterize spectroscopically. Consequently, the preparation of carbon-supported catalysts still lacks control at each synthetic step. [Pg.569]

The most common route to cyclic carbonates is the reaction of epoxides with CO2, which is promoted by a variety of homogeneous, heterogeneous and supported catalysts either cyclic carbonates or polymers are obtained [89]. Main group metal halides [90a] and metal complexes [90b], ammonium salts [91] and supported bases [92], phosphines [93], transition metal systems [88, 94], metal oxides [95], and ionic liquids [96] have been shown to afford monomeric carbonates. A1 porphyrin complexes [97] and Zn salts [89, 94, 98] copolymerize olefins and CO2. [Pg.19]

Heterogeneous hydrogenation catalysts can be used in either a supported or an unsupported form. The most common supports are based on alurnina, carbon, and siUca. Supports are usually used with the more expensive metals and serve several purposes. Most importandy, they increase the efficiency of the catalyst based on the weight of metal used and they aid in the recovery of the catalyst, both of which help to keep costs low. When supported catalysts are employed, they can be used as a fixed bed or as a slurry (Uquid phase) or a fluidized bed (vapor phase). In a fixed-bed process, the amine or amine solution flows over the immobile catalyst. This eliminates the need for an elaborate catalyst recovery system and minimizes catalyst loss. When a slurry or fluidized bed is used, the catalyst must be separated from the amine by gravity (settling), filtration, or other means. [Pg.259]

Homogeneous deposition of ultrafine metal particles on the surfaces of fine powder is not easy using PVD. A device for stirring the powder support in a vacuum chamber is needed to avoid heterogeneous deposition. Sputter deposition units equipped with stirring powder supports have already been adapted for the industrial production of Ti02 and carbon-supported gold catalysts by 3M [35]. [Pg.58]

The potential for the use of catalysis in support of sustainability is enormous [102, 103]. New heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysts for improved reaction selectivity, and catalyst activity and stabihty, are needed, for example, new catalytic materials with new carbon modifications for nanotubes, new polymers. [Pg.155]

A continuous procedure for the alkylation of mesitylene and anisole with supercritical propene, or propan-2-ol in supercritical carbon dioxide, with a heterogeneous polysiloxane-supported solid acid Deloxan catalyst has been reported giving 100% selectivity for monoalkylation of mesitylene with 50% conversion at 250 °C and 150 bar by propan-2-ol in supercritical carbon dioxide. p-Toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate has been demonstrated as an efficient catalyst for the clean alkylation of aromatics using activated alkyl halides, alkenes or tosylates under mild conditions. Cyclohexene, for example, reacts with toluene to give 100% cyclohexyltoluenes (o m p-29 18 53) under these circumstances. [Pg.291]

In contrast, stepwise substitution reactions on M(CO)6 (M = Cr, Mo, W) have been achieved with a series of heterogeneous catalysts including co-balt(ll) chloride (27), activated charcoal (159), and platinum metals dispersed on oxide or carbon supports (31), to give mono-, di-, tri-, and complete substitution (124) in yields > 90%. Representative reaction times are given in Table II (159). The efficiency of the method was further demonstrated by the stepwise synthesis of the mixed isocyanide complexes m-Mo(CO)4(CNMe)(CNBu ) and /ac-Mo(CO)3(CNMeXCNBu )2 from Mo(CO)6 in <25 min in 85 and 95% yields, respectively (159). [Pg.226]

A large number of heterogeneous catalysts have been tested under screening conditions (reaction parameters 60 °C, linoleic acid ethyl ester at an LHSV of 30 L/h, and a fixed carbon dioxide and hydrogen flow) to identify a suitable fixed-bed catalyst. We investigated a number of catalyst parameters such as palladium and platinum as precious metal (both in the form of supported metal and as immobilized metal complex catalysts), precious-metal content, precious-metal distribution (egg shell vs. uniform distribution), catalyst particle size, and different supports (activated carbon, alumina, Deloxan , silica, and titania). We found that Deloxan-supported precious-metal catalysts are at least two times more active than traditional supported precious-metal fixed-bed catalysts at a comparable particle size and precious-metal content. Experimental results are shown in Table 14.1 for supported palladium catalysts. The Deloxan-supported catalysts also led to superior linoleate selectivity and a lower cis/trans isomerization rate was found. The explanation for the superior behavior of Deloxan-supported precious-metal catalysts can be found in their unique chemical and physical properties—for example, high pore volume and specific surface area in combination with a meso- and macro-pore-size distribution, which is especially attractive for catalytic reactions (Wieland and Panster, 1995). The majority of our work has therefore focused on Deloxan-supported precious-metal catalysts. [Pg.231]

As for hydrogenation, heterogeneous catalytic oxidation of carbohydrates was essentially performed in the presence of carbon-supported metal catalysts, namely Pt, Pd or Bi-doped Pd.[57] Oxidation of glucose into gluconic acid, the worldwide production of which is around 60000 tons year 1,[52] is used in the food and pharmaceutical industry, and is produced today by enzymatic oxidation of D-glucose with a selectivity in gluconic acid close to 100%. [Pg.153]

At the end of considerations of heterogeneous supported catalysts, mention should be made of Ziegler-Natta catalysts for ethylene and propylene polymerisations supported on carbon-containing carriers, although there is rather scant information in the literature concerning this matter. [Pg.66]
