Highly efficient Cu(II) coordination polymer catalyst for the conversion of hazardous volatile organic compounds. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 364:143001. [PMID: 39121961 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.143001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 07/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
Three novel coordination polymers (CPs), namely [Cu(μ-1κO,2κN-L)2]n (1), [Zn (μ-1κO,2κN-L)2(H2O)2]n (2) and [Cd (μ-1κOO',2κN-L)2]n (3) [where HL = 4-(pyrimidin-5-ylcarbamoyl)benzoic acid], were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ATR-IR, TGA, XPS and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Despite having the same organic ligand, the various metal cations had an impact in the subsequent frameworks. Hirshfeld surface analysis was performed to investigate the intermolecular interactions and to examine the stability of the crystal structures of the three polymers. Their catalytic performances were screened for the peroxidative oxidation of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), with toluene and p-xylene selected as model substrates. Tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH or TBHP) (aq. 70 %) was employed as the oxidant. The catalytic oxidation of toluene yielded benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde and benzoic acid. The copper CP 1 exhibited the highest total yield for toluene oxidation, reaching approximately 36% in an aqueous medium. For p-xylene oxidation, tolualdehyde, methylbenzyl alcohol, and toluic acid were produced as the primary products, accompanied by minor ones. The experiments were conducted under diverse conditions, manipulating key parameters such as the choice of solvent (water or acetonitrile), type of oxidant (t-BuOOH or H2O2), the concentration of the oxidant and reaction temperature. In the presence of catalyst 1, a maximum total yield of ca. 80% was achieved for p-xylene oxidation.

Abstract
Toluene is a common and significant volatile organic compound (VOC). Although it finds extensive application in various industrial processes (chemical manufacturing, paint and adhesive production, and as a solvent), it creates a huge environmental impact when emitted freely into the atmosphere. Two solutions were found to mitigate the emission of this pollutant: the total oxidation to CO2 and H2O and the selective oxidation into benzaldehyde. This review discusses the two main alternatives for tackling this problem: converting the toluene into carbon dioxide by total oxidation or into benzaldehyde by selective oxidation. It presents new catalytic advances, new trends, and the advantages and disadvantages of both methods.
