A Non-Precious Metal Promoting the Synthesis of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural

In this work, a new kind of catalyst was prepared for synthesis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Copper ions were incorporated into manganese oxide octahedral molecular sieves (K-OMS-2). The catalysts Cu-K-OMS-2 were characterized by measuring FTIR spectra, scanning electron microscope images, X-ray diff...

description In this work, a new kind of catalyst was prepared for synthesis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Copper ions were incorporated into manganese oxide octahedral molecular sieves (K-OMS-2). The catalysts Cu-K-OMS-2 were characterized by measuring FTIR spectra, scanning electron microscope images, X-ray diffraction patterns, and temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) profiles. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) demonstrated that the stability of Cu-K-OMS-2 is almost the same as that of K-OMS-2. XRD patterns showed that introducing copper ions did not change the structure of K-OMS-2, but copper ions had an effect on the morphology of K-OMS-2 as illustrated by SEM images. TPD profiles demonstrated that both K-OMS-2 and Cu-K-OMS-2 possess basic and acidic sites, and Cu-K-OMS-2 has weak acidic sites. One-pot synthesis of 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) from fructose was investigated under the catalysis of Cu-K-OMS-2 together with a commercial catalyst Amberlyst 15. The effect of reaction time and temperature on the DFF yield was investigated, and reaction temperature had an effect on the DFF yield. The effect of atomic ratio of Cu to Mn of Cu-K-OMS-2 on the DFF yield was also investigated. The DFF yield was improved 34.7% by Cu-K-OMS-2 in comparison to K-OMS-2, indicating the promotion effect of copper on the DFF yield. Consecutive use of Cu-K-OMS-2 demonstrated that after 6 cycles, the loss of DFF yield was 6.3%, indicating a good reusability of Cu-K-OMS-2.
