Abstract:Highly selective synthesis of renewable methyl acrylate from bio-sourced formaldehyde and methyl acetate through one-step aldol condensation was successfully realized on Cu-modified nitrogen-containing Beta (NBeta) catalysts. Silicon-29 magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (29Si MAS NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia, temperature-programmed desorption of carbon dioxide, and element analysis indicate that nitridation weakens the acid st… Show more
