A Novel Strategy for the Preparation of Supported Pd as an Efficient Catalyst for the Hydrogenation of Nitrobenzene in Mild Conditions

An advanced strategy was developed for the synthesis of molecular sieve-supported Pd catalysts. In this method, reductant containing C=C was in-situ prepared and pre-dispersed in the pore of the zeolites. The C=C group in the reductant can reduce the Pd<sup>2+</sup> to Pd<sup>0<...

description An advanced strategy was developed for the synthesis of molecular sieve-supported Pd catalysts. In this method, reductant containing C=C was in-situ prepared and pre-dispersed in the pore of the zeolites. The C=C group in the reductant can reduce the Pd<sup>2+</sup> to Pd<sup>0</sup> efficiently, leading to the formation of small and uniform Pd nanoparticles (~2 nm). The physical and chemical properties of the catalyst were characterized by XRD, TEM, XPS (ICP-OES), N<sub>2</sub> isothermal adsorption-desorption, and H<sub>2</sub>-TPR. These catalysts showed high catalytic performance for the hydrogenation of nitrobenzene to aniline. All the TOFs for 1.5 Pd/Y, 1.5 Pd/ZSM-5, and 1.5 Pd/MOR with 1.5 wt% Pd loading are higher than 1000 h<sup>−1</sup> at 30 °C and 0.1 MPa H<sub>2</sub>. Meanwhile, kinetic analysis for 2.0 Pd/Y was carried out, and an apparent activation energy of 28.88 kJ mol<sup>−1</sup> was obtained, which is lower than most of the reported values in the literature. Furthermore, these catalysts were stable and recyclable.
