A critical review on the role of carbon supports of metal catalysts for selective catalytic hydrogenation of chloronitrobenzenes

Eco‐sustainable Synthesis of N‐containing Heterocyclic Systems Using Porous Carbon Catalysts

“…-of these active phases, and consequently, the performance of these supported catalysts, are strongly dependent on the treatment conditions. [16]…”

A multi-walled carbon nanotube-supported acidic ionic liquid catalyst for the conversion of biomass-derived saccharides to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural

“…19 Their suitable stability in acidic/basic media and at high temperatures, tunable porous texture and surface chemistry, and low corrosion capability make them appropriate supports for preparing heterogeneous catalysts. 20,21 More importantly, carbon-based materials are cheaper than other conventional supports since carbon is one of the lowest-priced, most readily available, and most abundant elements in our biosphere. 22 Among all existing carbon materials, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have gained much attention because of their large surface/volume ratio and the absence of microporosity.…”

Regulating pore structures of carbon supports toward efficient selective hydrogenation of o-chloronitrobenzene on Pt nanoparticles

“…Chloroaniline, as a key intermediate in the syntheses of high value-added chemicals such as organic dyes, pharmaceuticals, pesticides and photosensitive materials is usually prepared by reacting chloronitrobenzene with a reducing agent. [1][2][3][4][5] However, traditional chlorinated nitrobenzene reducing agents, such as iron powder, zinc powder and alkali sulfide, have the problems of excessive dosage and easy generation of industrial waste during the synthesis process. 6,7 In addition, this process increases the difficulty of product separation and purification, resulting in a lot of waste of energy and related environmental problems.…”
