Xiao P, Wang Y, Lu Y, Nakamura K, Ozawa N, Kubo M, Gies H, Yokoi T. Direct Oxidation of Methane to Methanol over Transition-Metal-Free Ferrierite Zeolite Catalysts. J Am Chem Soc 2024; 146:10014-10022. [PMID: 38557129 PMCID: PMC11009945 DOI: 10.1021/jacs.4c00646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2024] [Revised: 03/17/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
Direct oxidation of methane to methanol was reported to be highly dependent on the transition- or noble-metal-loading catalysts in the past decades. Here, we show that the transition-metal-free aluminosilicate ferrierite (FER) zeolite effectively catalyzed methane and N2O to methanol for the first time. The distorted tetracoordinated Al in the framework and pentacoordinated Al on the extra framework formed during calcination, activation, and reaction processes were confirmed as the potential active centers. The possible reaction pathway similar to the Fe-containing zeolites was advocated based on the reaction results using different oxidants, N2O adsorption FTIR spectra, and 27Al MAS NMR spectra. The stable and efficient methanol production capacity of FER zeolite was ascribed to the two-dimensional straight channels and its distinctive Al distribution of FER zeolite (CP914C) from Zeolyst. The transition-metal-free FER zeolite performed better than the record in the literature and our recent results using transition-metal-containing catalysts in terms of selectivity and formation rate of methanol and stability. This work has great significance and prospects for utilizing CH4 and N2O as resources and will open new avenues for methane oxidation.

Abstract
Methane is an abundant resource and its direct conversion into value-added chemicals has been an attractive subject for its efficient utilization. This method can be more efficient than the present energy-intensive indirect conversion of methane via syngas, a mixture of CO and H2. Among the various approaches for direct methane conversion, the selective oxidation of methane into methane oxygenates (e.g., methanol and formaldehyde) is particularly promising because it can proceed at low temperatures. Nevertheless, due to low product yields this method is challenging. Compared with the liquid-phase partial oxidation of methane, which frequently demands for strong oxidizing agents in protic solvents, gas-phase selective methane oxidation has some merits, such as the possibility of using oxygen as an oxidant and the ease of scale-up owing to the use of heterogeneous catalysts. Herein, we summarize recent advances in the gas-phase partial oxidation of methane into methane oxygenates, focusing mainly on its conversion into formaldehyde and methanol.
