Supported transition metal (Mo, W) carbide and nitride catalysts for lignin hydrodeoxygenation: interplay of supports, structure, and catalysis

Abstract

Lignin exhibits a good prospect as an abundant and sustainable raw material for the production of value-added chemicals. The transition metal carbides and nitrides are very suitable for aromatics production...

Facile One-Pot Preparation of Organotin-Oxometalate Polymers for Efficient Synthesis of Dimethyl Carbonate from CO2

“…FT-Raman spectra of the organometallic coordination polymers are shown in Figure A. It may be seen that the coordination polymers exhibited obvious characteristic peaks at around 930, 870, and 313 cm –1 , which are ascribed to the T d symmetric stretching vibration of [MoO 4 ] 2– units. , Furthermore, the peaks centered at around 513 cm –1 were observed obviously, and they are associated with the stretching vibration of Sn–C, demonstrating that the Sn–C characteristic bond within the polymers was generated in the as-prepared samples. The chemical structure of ( n Bu 3 Sn) 2 MoO 4 was further validated by solid-state 119 Sn and 13 C CP/MAS NMR (Figure S2).…”

Hydrogenation of amides to amines by heterogeneous catalysis: a review

“…Recently, inspired by the superior hydrogenation ability of molybdenum nitrides, [97][98][99] bimetallic NiMo nitride catalysts with Ni atoms embedded into the molybdenum nitride lattice were synthesized and employed to convert amides. Compared to the traditional programmed temperature nitriding method, the new hydrothermal synthesis method is easier to operate, environmentally friendly, and avoids the use of NH 3 .…”

Transition metal nitride catalysts for selective conversion of oxygen-containing molecules

“…These lignin monomers can be obtained via depolymerization, where abundant oxygen content must be removed. 102 Due to their activity for hydrodeoxygenation and selective C–O cleavage, TMN-based catalysts have been investigated for lignin depolymerization reactions. One such study proposed a two-step depolymerization method comprising a selective oxidation followed by hydrogenolysis over a TiN–Cu catalyst.…”
