Abstract
Highly selective synthesis of primary amines from renewable biomass has attracted increasing attention, but it still faces great challenges in chemical industry applications. In this study, an electron-rich Ru catalyst was constructed by doping N into coffee biochar using a one-pot carbonization method (Ru/NCB-600). Ru/NCB-600 showed high catalytic activity and yield for the reductive amination of furfural with green and cheap NH3 and H2. The excellent catalytic performance of Ru/NCB-600 was closely correlated to the formation of electron-rich Ruδ- species (Ruδ--Nxδ+), which endowed Ru/NCB-600 with an enhanced H2 adsorption and activation ability. Ru/NCB-600 showed a high formation rate of 95.6 gfurfurylamine·gRu-1·h-1 and a high yield of furfurylamine (98.6%) at 50 °C. Ru/NCB-600 can also be used for the reductive amination of various carbonyl compounds in good to excellent yield (95.4-99%). This study thus provides a potential pathway for the highly selective reductive amination of carbonyl compounds by regulating the electron density of Ru.

CHEMSUSCHEM 2023; 16:e202301091. [PMID: 37656427 DOI: 10.1002/cssc.202301091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
Nowadays, the field of biomass conversion is gradually moving towards an encouraging stage. The preparation of nitrogen-containing chemicals using various biomass resources instead of fossil resources do not only reduce carbon emissions, but also diversify the products of biomass conversion, thus increasing the economic competitiveness of biomass refining systems. Levulinic acid (LA) can be used as a promising intermediate in biomass conversion for further synthesis of pyrrolidone via reductive amination. However, there are still many critical issues to be solved. Particularly, the specific effects of catalysts on the performance of LA reductive amination have not been sufficiently revealed, and the potential impacts of key conditional factors have not been clearly elucidated. In view of this, this review attempts to provide theoretical insights through an in-depth interpretation of the above key issues. The contribution of catalysts to the reductive amination of LA as well as the catalyst structural preferences for improving catalytic performance are discussed. In addition, the role of key conditional factors is discussed. The insights presented in this review will contribute to the design of catalyst nanostructures and the rational configuration of green reaction conditions, which may provide inspiration to facilitate the nitrogen-related transformation of more biomass platform molecules.

Abstract
An efficient continuous-flow (CF) protocol was designed for the hydrogenation of lignin-derived aromatics to the corresponding cycloalkanes derivatives. A parametric analysis of the reaction was carried out by tuning the temperature, the H2 pressure and the flow rate, and using diphenyl ether (DPE) as a model substrate, commercial Ru/C as a catalyst, and isopropanol as a solvent: at 25 °C, 50 bar H2 , and a flow rate of 0.1 mL min-1 , dicyclohexyl ether was achieved in an 86 % selectivity, at quantitative conversion. By-products from the competitive C-O bond cleavage of DPE, cyclohexanol and cyclohexane, did not exceed 14 % in total. Remarkably, prolonged experiments demonstrated an excellent stability of the catalyst whose performance was unaltered for up to 420 min of time-of-stream. A substrate scope evaluation proved that under the same conditions used for DPE, a variety of substrates including alkoxy-, allyl-, and carbonyl-functionalized phenols, biphenyl, aryl benzyl- and phenethyl ethers (10 examples) yielded the ring-hydrogenated products with selectivity up to 99 % at complete conversion.

Abstract
This study presents the transformation of olefins to branched amines by combining a hydroformylation/aldol condensation tandem reaction with the reductive amination in a combined multiphase system that can be recycled 9 times. The products are branched amines that are precursors for surfactants. Since the multiphase hydrofomylation/aldol condensation system has already been studied, the first step was to develop the partial hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes together with a subsequent reductive amination. The rhodium/phosphine catalyst is immobilized in a polar polyethylene phase which separates from the product phase after the reaction. Reaction and catalyst recycling are demonstrated by the conversion of the C14 -aldehyde 2-pentylnonenal with the dimethylamine surrogate dimethylammonium dimethylcarbamate to the corresponding tertiary amine with yields up to 88 % and an average rhodium leaching of less than 0.1 % per recycling run. Furthermore, the positive influence of a Bronsted acid and carbon monoxide on the selectivity are discussed. Finally, the two PEG based systems have been merged in one recycling approach, by using the product phase of the hydroformylation aldol condensation reaction for the reductive amination reaction. The yields are stable during a nine recycling runs and the leaching low with 0.09 % over the two recycling stages.

Abstract
Three different multiphase systems (MP 1-3) comprised of two immiscible liquids, with or without an ionic liquid (IL: methyltrioctyl ammonium chloride), were investigated for the oxidation of 5-hydroxymethyl-furfural (HMF) over 5 % Ru/C as a catalyst and air (8 bar) as an oxidant. These conditions proved versatile for an excellent control of the reaction selectivity to 4 distinct products derived from full or partial oxidation of the carbonyl and alcohol functions of HMF, and each one achieved in 87-96 % isolated yield at complete conversion. MP1 based on water and isooctane, yielded 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA, 91 % yield). In MP2, obtained by adding the IL to MP1, the oxidation proceeded towards the formation of 5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (FFCA, 87-89 % yield). MP2 also proved successful in the design of a one pot-two step oxidation/reduction sequence to prepare 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (HMFCA, 85 % yield). In MP3, the use of an acetonitrile/cyclooctane biphase yielded 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF, 96 % yield). All the multiphase systems MP 1-3 allowed a perfect segregation of the catalyst in a single phase (either the hydrocarbon or the IL) distinct from the one containing HMF and its oxidation products. This was crucial not only for the catalyst/product separation but also for the recycle of Ru/C that was possible under all the tested conditions. Accordingly, MP-reaction were run in a semicontinuous mode without removing the catalyst from the reactor nor resorting to conventional separation and activation techniques. Negligible Ru leaching, less than 0.96 ppb, was measured in all cases.

Abstract
The hydrogenation/hydrogenolysis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has been carried out either under single (aqueous) phase or batch multiphase (MP) conditions using mutually immiscible aqueous/hydrocarbon phases, 5 % Ru/C as a catalyst, and both with and without the use of trioctylmethyl phosphonium bis-(trifluoro methane) sulfonimide ([P8881 ][NTf2 ]) as an ionic liquid (IL). Alternatively, the hydrogenation of HMF was explored in the continuous-flow (CF) mode with the same catalyst. By changing reaction parameters, experiments were optimized towards the formation of three products: 2,5-bis(hydroxy methyl)furan (BHMF), 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran (BHMTHF), and 1-hydroxyhexane-2,5-dione (HHD), which were obtained in up to 92, 90, and 99 % selectivity, respectively, at quantitative conversion. In particular, the single (aqueous) phase reaction of HMF (0.2 m) carried out for 18 h at 60 °C under 30 bar of H2 , allowed the exclusive synthesis of BHMF from the partial (carbonyl) hydrogenation of HMF, while the MP reaction run at a higher T and p (100 °C and 50 bar) proved excellent to achieve only HHD derived from a sequence of hydrogenation/hydrogenolysis. It is worth noting that under MP conditions, the catalyst was perfectly segregated in the IL, where it could be recycled without any leaching in the aqueous/hydrocarbon phases. Finally, the hydrogenation of HMF was explored in a H-Cube® flow reactor in the presence of different solvents, such as ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, and ethanol. At 100 °C, 50 bar H2 , and a flow rate of 0.1 mL min-1 , the process was optimized towards the formation of the full hydrogenation product BHMTHF. Ethyl acetate proved the best solvent.

Abstract
Levulinic acid and its esters (e.g., ethyl levulinate, EL) are platform chemicals derived from biomass feedstocks that can be converted to a variety of valuable compounds. Reductive amination of levulinates with primary amines and H2 over heterogeneous catalysts is an attractive method for the synthesis of N-alkyl-5-methyl-2-pyrrolidones, which are an environmentally friendly alternative to the common solvent N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). In the present work, the catalytic properties of the different nickel phosphide catalysts supported on SiO2 and Al2O3 were studied in a reductive amination of EL with n-hexylamine to N-hexyl-5-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (HMP) in a flow reactor. The influence of the phosphorus precursor, reduction temperature, reactant ratio, and addition of acidic diluters on the catalyst performance was investigated. The Ni2P/SiO2 catalyst prepared using (NH4)2HPO4 and reduced at 600 °C provides the highest HMP yield, which reaches 98%. Although the presence of acid sites and a sufficient hydrogenating ability are important factors determining the pyrrolidone yield, the selectivity also depends on the specific features of EL adsorption on active catalytic sites.

Abstract
The valorisation of biomass-derived platform chemicals via catalytic hydrogenation is an eco-friendly tool which allows us to recover bio-based building blocks and produce fine chemicals with high industrial appeal. In the present study, a novel surfactant-type triazolyl-thioether ligand was prepared, showing excellent catalytic activity in the presence of bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)diiridium(I) dichloride [Ir(COD)Cl]2 for the hydrogenation of furfural, cinnamaldehyde, levulinic acid, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, vanillin, and citral. Easy recovery by liquid/liquid extraction allowed us to recover the catalyst, which could then be efficiently recycled up to 11 times for the hydrogenation of furfural. In-depth analysis revealed the formation of spherical structures with metal nanoparticles as big as 2–6 nm surrounded by the anionic ligand, preventing iridium nanoparticle degradation.

Abstract
A series of polymer-supported cooperative PC(sp3 )P pincer catalysts was synthesized and characterized. Their catalytic activity in the acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and the transfer hydrogenation of aldehydes with formic acid as a hydrogen source was investigated. This comparative study, examining homogeneous and polymer-tethered species, proved that carefully designing a link between the support and the catalytic moiety, which takes into consideration the mechanism underlying the target transformation, might lead to superior heterogeneous catalysis.
