Activation of oxygen-containing functional groups plays a key role in sustainable biomass upgrading and conversion. In this work, a NiMo intermetallic compound (IMC) catalyst was prepared based on layered double hydroxides (LDHs) precursors, which displayed prominent catalytic performance for furfural hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) to 2-methylfuran (2-MF) (yield: 99%) at a rather low hydrogen pressure (0.1 MPa), significantly superior to NiMo alloy, monometallic Ni and other Ni-based catalysts ever reported. CO-IR, STEM, EXAFS and XANES give direct evidences that the atomically-ordered Ni/Mo sites in NiMo IMC determine the uniform bridging-type adsorption mode of C=O bond in furfural while adsorption of furan ring is extremely suppressed. In situ FT-IR and DFT calculation further substantiate that ordered Ni-Mo bimetallic sites of IMC, in contrast to the random at. sequence in NiMo alloy, facilitate the activation and cleavage of C-OH bond in the intermediate (furfuryl alc., FOL), accounting for the production of 2-MF. This work demonstrates the decisive effect of atomically-ordered active sites in IMC catalyst on activation of oxygen-containing functional groups and product selectivity, which can be extended to catalytic upgrading of biomass-derived platform mols.

Hydrogenation of furfural (FF) produces a train of products such as furfuryl alc. (FFA), tetrahydrofurfuryl alc. (THFFA) and 2-methylfuran (2-MF). The Pd/Ni/Ni(OH)2/C nanocatalyst was successfully prepared under mild conditions by hydrazine hydrate reduction and galvanic replacement methods. Pd/Ni/Ni(OH)2/C had much higher conversion of furfural and selectivity toward furfuryl alc. for the selective hydrogenation of furfural than the monometallic catalysts (eg. Pd/C or Ni/C) due to its unique nanostructure of palladium island-on-Ni/Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles and thus the synergy effect between Pd, Ni and Ni(OH)2 related species. The proposed mechanism of the synergistic effect was also provided. Pd/Ni/Ni(OH)2/C showed high selectivity (90.0% or 92.4%) to furfuryl alc. at quite low reaction temperatures (5°C or 10°C), and had good stability. We used various characterization techniques (XRD, HRTEM, STEM-EDS elemental mapping and line-scanning, XPS, HS-LEIS) to compare the nanostructural differences between the monometallic and bimetallic catalysts as well as to explain the possible reasons for the superior performance of Pd/Ni/Ni(OH)2/C to corresponding monometallic catalysts.

Bimetallic Ni-Cu/SiO2 catalysts with different Cu loading (2-5 wt%) were developed for liquid phase selective hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alc. Among these, bimetallic 2%Ni-X%Cu/SiO2 (X = 2, 5) catalysts exhibited better catalytic performances than monometallic 2%Ni/SiO2 and 2%Cu/SiO2. Moreover, the bimetallic 2%Ni-5%Cu/SiO2 catalyst showed the best catalytic performance with 94% of furfural conversion and 64% of furfuryl alc. selectivity. The synergetic effect of NiCu alloy particles that are present on bimetallic Ni-Cu/SiO2 catalysts change the adsorption configuration of furfural on the catalyst surface resulting in high catalytic performance in liquid phase selective hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alc.

A range of Pt:Cu bimetallic nanoparticles were investigated for the liquid-phase selective hydrogenation of furfural, an important platform biomass feedstock. Alloying of the two metals had a profound effect on the overall catalytic activity, providing superior rates of reaction and achieving the needed high selectivity towards furfuryl alc. Furthermore, we investigated the catalytic activity of an Ultra Dilute Alloy (UDA) formed via the galvanic replacement of Cu atoms by Pt atoms on dispersed host Cu nanoparticles (at. ratio Pt:Cu 1:20). This UDA, after overcoming an induction period, exhibits exceptionally high initial rates of hydrogenation under modest hydrogen pressures of 10 and 20 bar, rivalling the catalytic turnover for the monometallic Pt (containing 12 times more Pt), and outdoing the pure Cu or other compositions of bimetallic nanoparticle alloy catalysts. These atom efficient catalysts are ideal candidates for the valorization of furfural due to their activity and vastly greater economic viability.

The selective activation of targeted bonds in biomass-derived furfural or furfuryl alc. with complex chem. linkages (C-C/C-H/C-O, C=C/C=O, or C-O-H/C-O-C) is of great challenge for biomass upgrading, expecting well-defined catalyst and definite catalytically active sites. This work demonstrates an efficient targeted activation to C-OH, C-O-C, or C=C by engineering the structure of catalytic Pt sites, affording 2-methylfuran (2-MF), tetrahydrofurfuryl alc. (THFA), or 1,2-pentanediol (1,2-PeD) as product in the hydroconversion of furfuryl alc. The catalytic Pt sites have been engineered as at. Pt, coordination unsaturated Pt-Pt in atom-thick dispersion, or coordination unsaturated 3D Pt-Pt by tailoring the Pt dispersion (single atom, 2D cluster, or 3D cluster) on Mg and Al-containing layered double oxide (Mg(Al)O) support. The selective activation of C-OH, C-O-C, or C=C has been traced with the FT-IR spectra recorded surface reaction. On at. Pt, C-O-H is easily activated, with the assistance of Mg(Al)O support, with O-terminal adsorption without affecting furan C-O and C=C. However, C=C in the furan ring is easier to be activated on coordination-unsaturated Pt-Pt in atom-thick dispersion, resulting in a step-by-step hydrogenation to generate THFA. On coordination-unsaturated 3D Pt-Pt, the hydrogenolysis of furan ring is favored, resulting in the cleavage of furan C-O to produce 1,2-PeD. Also, the Mg(Al)O supports derived from Mg and Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) here also play a key role in promoting the selectivity to 1,2-PeD by providing basic sites.

It was shown for the first time that in the reaction of 3-methyl-5-(trinitromethyl)tetrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazin-7-one with alcs. in the presence of bases, along with the expected substitution of the trinitromethyl group, opening of the 1,3,5-triazine ring with the addition of an alc. at the site of the C-N bond cleavage takes place. It was found that in the absence of bases only opening of the 1,3,5-triazine ring occurs with the formation of alkyl esters of {1-[(1-methyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)imino]-2,2,2-trinitroethyl}carbamic acid, and the trinitromethyl group retains high reactivity and can be substituted by the action of alcs. in the presence of a base.

The degradation process of cyclobutanol (cButOH) by hydroxyl radical (OH), under atm. conditions, (750 ± 10) Torr of air and (296 ± 2) K, has been studied. The rate coefficient for the title reaction (k296K = (7.3 ± 0.6) x 10-12 cm3 mol.-1 s-1) was determined at 296 K by the conventional relative-rate method. Electronic structure calculations with uCCSD(T)/uBHandHLYP/aug-cc-PVDZ were conducted to study the reaction mechanism. The global rate coefficient was also calculated using the transition state theory with tunneling corrections, obtaining a value of 5.4 x 10-12 cm3 mol.-1 s-1 in agreement with the exptl. determination Addnl., reaction products identification in clean and NOx-contaminated atmospheres was performed for the first time. The identified reaction products and their corresponding yields (YP) depend on the environment composition in which the reaction is studied. In the absence of NOx, cyclobutanone (cButanone) was the only identified product, with YcButanone = (0.66 ± 0.08). In NOx-contaminated atmospheres, in addition to cButanone, THF (THF), 2-nitro-1-butanol (2N1B), 3-nitro-2-butanol (3N2B) and 2-methyl-2-nitro-1-propanol (2M2N1P), were also identified as primary reaction products. Under this condition, we were able to determine only the yields of cButanone and THF (YcButanone = 0.38 ± 0.05 and YTHF = 0.28 ± 0.02). A likely reaction mechanism for the observed products is proposed and the atm. implications are discussed.

2-Methyltetrahydrofuran is a valuable com. product that can be obtained by direct hydrogenation of furfural. In the present study, among several carbon supported bimetallic Ir-Ni catalysts with different loadings screened, 4% Ir-4% Ni/C catalyst showed excellent activity in terms of direct conversion (99%) to 2-MeTHF with a maximum selectivity of ∼74% at 220°C and 750 psig, suppressing the formation of side chain as well as ring opening products. The catalytic activity was found to be mainly affected by catalyst preparation methods, metal loadings, surface composition, temperature, pressure and catalyst loading. HR-TEM and STEM revealed well dispersed Ir-Ni NPs having the particle sizes in the range of 2 to 5 nm. Different phases of Ir i. e. Ir° and IrO2 as well as oxygen vacancies were found to be responsible for hydrogenation of furfural to 2-Me furan while, Ni° and NiO were responsible for further hydrogenation to 2-MeTHF. The synergic effect between Ir and Ni was established through XPS, H2-TPR anal. With the help of some control experiments, the plausible reaction pathway was also proposed. The catalyst prepared by co-impregnation method found more effective than prepared by sequential addition method. At lower Ni loadings of 1% and 2%, low temperature of 160°C as well as at low H2 pressure of 250 psig, mixture of furfuryl alc. and 2-Me furan were formed selectively. Catalyst could be successfully reused up to 3 times without leaching of metals.
