Costa BB, Silva AOD, Meneghetti SMP. Esterification of Levulinic Acid with Different Alcohols Using Mesoporous Stannosilicates As the Catalyst. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:31128-31135. [PMID: 39035906 PMCID: PMC11256102 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c04598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2024] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024]
Abstract
The mesoporous stannosilicates SnMCM-41-25 and SnMCM-41-80, synthesized, respectively, at 25 and 80 °C and exhibiting a well-ordered hexagonal structure, were applied for the first time as heterogeneous catalysts in the esterification of levulinic acid (LA) with different alcohols. The nonhydrothermal method was effective to obtain materials with a high degree of ordering, high acidity, and promising catalytic activity in this esterification. The SnMCM-41-80 led to conversions of 71.0 and 83.6% in 120 and 180 min, respectively, while the respective values for the material without Sn were 33.2 and 40.1% under the same conditions (MeOH:LA molar ratio of 5:1, 1 wt % catalyst, 3 h, 120 °C). In addition, concerning the use of different alcohols, the reaction rate constants (k ap) were related to the effects of substituents by Taft equation. In general, the polar and steric effects follow the Taft relation, and the length of the chain exerted less influence on the decrease in conversion in comparison to the presence of branches. These results indicate that it is possible to incorporate Sn into the structure of MCM41, thus, making the modified materials more active in the esterification investigated.

[PMID: 36936835 PMCID: PMC10021077 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra07334j] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2023] Open
Abstract
A series of stannous oxide supported on rutile titanium dioxide (SnO/TiO2) were prepared by a conventional incipient wetness impregnation method, and their performance as catalysts for fatty acid esterification reactions was investigated. The effects of Sn precursors (SnCl2·2H2O or SnC2O4), loading amounts (5-15%), and treating ambiences (air and N2) were explored. The optimized 10% SnO/TiO2-Cl with SnCl2·2H2O as the Sn precursor and thermal treatment in N2 showed the best esterification performance. Specifically, 10% SnO/TiO2-Cl catalyzed the esterification process of trimethylolpropane and n-octanoic acid with a conversion of 99.6% over 5 h at 160 °C, and 10% SnO/TiO2-Cl was efficient for six catalytic cycles. Based on the results of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), infrared spectra of pyridine adsorption (Py-IR), and ammonia temperature programmed desorption (NH3-TPD), the improved catalytic performance is supposed to be attributable to the high dispersion of the Sn species on 10% SnO/TiO2-Cl as the moderate Lewis acid sites.

Abstract
Biomass is a kind of renewable and abundant resource that can be seen as an important candidate to solve the energy crisis. Levulinic acid (LA) and levulinate esters (LEs) have been widely researched as biomass-based platform compounds. In recent years, efficient, green, and environment-friendly solid acid catalysts have been developed for the fast production and resolution of the problems, such as low yield, high equipmental requirements, and difficulty in product separation, in the preparation of LA and LE from biomass. In this paper, the preparation routes of LA and LEs from various raw materials are introduced, and the solid acid catalysts involved in their production are emphatically reviewed. The challenges and prospects in LA and LE production from biomass are proposed to achieve a more economical and energy efficient process with the concept of sustainable development in the future.

Abstract
The impregnation of phosphotungstic acid (HPW) with porous cobalt-cerium oxide (HPW@CoCeO) has been prepared by pyrolysis of CoCe-MOF and used for the production of methyl oleate from oleic acid and methanol. FTIR, XRD, SEM, TEM, N2 adsorption/desorption, and NH3-TPD were characterized for the prepared composites. Simultaneously, the effects of reaction time, substrate molar ratio, temperature, and catalyst loading on catalytic activity were highlighted, and the conversion of 67.2% was reached after 4 h at 60°C. Importantly, HPW@CoCeO was reusabe and reused more than eight times, and the oleic acid conversion could be maintained at 61.8% without significant activity loss. Thus, the HPW@CoCeO composite could be used as acid catalysts for sustainable energy production.

Abstract
In this study, a series of nanoporous HSiW@ZrO2 hybrids were synthesized using a zirconium metal-organic framework UiO-66 as a precursor towards biodiesel production. The structural and morphological properties of the obtained hybrids were characterized by the wide-angle XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM, N2 adsorption/desorption, and NH3-TPD methods. Moreover, their catalytic activity in terms of calcination temperature during preparation was investigated, and the HSiW@ZrO2 hybrids calcinated at 300 °C exhibited the highest activity and the oleic acid (OA) conversion of 94.0% owing to the presence of the relatively high surface area, appropriate pore size and strong acidity. It was also revealed that the hybrids maintained as high as 82.0% even after nine cycles. Intriguingly, the nanoporous catalysts were found to exhibit excellent catalytic activity towards the esterification of the high acid value of Jatropha curcas oil.
