Embodiment 1

[0258] The preparation of embodiment 1-graphene oxide or graphite oxide catalyst

[0259] Graphene oxide or graphite oxide used in some of the experiments contained in these examples was prepared according to the following method. Others were prepared using the Staudenmaier method. Both methods yield suitable catalysts.

[0260] Graphite oxide was prepared using a modified Hummers method. A 100 mL reaction flask was charged with natural flake graphite (3.0 g; SP-1, Bay Carbon Inc. or Alfa Aesar [99%; 7–10 μm]), concentrated sulfuric acid (75 mL) and a stir bar, then cooled on an ice bath . Then slowly add KMnO to the flask within 2h 4(9.0 g), resulting in a dark mixture. The rate of addition was carefully controlled to prevent the temperature of the suspension from exceeding 20 °C. After stirring for 1 h at 0 °C, the mixture was heated at 35 °C for 0.5 h. The flask was then allowed to cool to room temperature and the reaction was quenched by pouring the mixture into 1...

Embodiment 2

[0261] Embodiment 2: the preparation of graphite oxide

[0262] A 100 mL reaction flask was charged with natural flake graphite (6.0 g; SP-1, BayCarbon Inc. or Alfa Aesar [99%; 7-10 μm]), concentrated sulfuric acid (25 mL), K 2 S 2 o 8 (5g), P 2 o 5 (5 g) and a stir bar, the mixture was then heated at 80° C. for 4.5 h. The mixture was then allowed to cool to room temperature. Next, the mixture was diluted with water (1 L) and left to stand for about 8-10 hours. The pretreated graphite was collected by filtration and washed with water (0.5 L). The pellet was air-dried for 1 day and transferred to concentrated H 2 SO 4 (230mL). Then slowly add KMnO to the mixture within 2h 4 (30 g), resulting in a dark mixture. Carefully control the rate of addition to prevent the temperature of the suspension from exceeding 10 °C. The mixture was stirred at 0 °C for 1 h. The mixture was then heated at 35 °C for 2 h. The flask was then cooled to room temperature and the reaction ...

Embodiment 3

[0263] Embodiment 3: the preparation of graphite oxide

[0264] Fill a 250mL reaction flask with natural flake graphite (1.56g; SP-1, BayCarbon Inc. or Alfa Aesar [99%; 7-10μm]), 50mL of concentrated sulfuric acid, 25mL of fuming nitric acid and a stirring bar, and then Cool in medium. NaClO was then added to the flask with stirring 3 (3.25g; Note: In some cases, due to the possible formation of KClO 4 Water insoluble, NaClO 3 better than KClO 3 ). Additional NaClO every hour for 11 consecutive hours 3 (3.25g) was added. This procedure was repeated for 3 days. The resulting mixture was poured into 2 L of deionized water. The heterogeneous dispersion was then filtered through a coarse sintered funnel or nylon membrane filter (0.2 μm, Whatman) and the isolated material was washed with additional deionized water (3 L) and 6N HCl (1 L). The filtered solid was collected and dried under high vacuum to give the product as a dark brown powder (3.61 g).

Abstract

The disclosure relates to catalytically active carbocatalysts, e.g., a graphene oxide or graphite oxide catalyst suitable for use in a variety of chemical transformations. In one embodiment, it relates to a method of catalyzing a chemical reaction of an organic molecule by reacting the organic molecule in the presence of a sufficient amount of graphene oxide or graphite oxide for a time and at a temperature sufficient to allow catalysis of a chemical reaction. According to other embodiments, the reaction may be an oxidation reaction, a hydration reaction, a dehydrogenation reaction, a condensation reaction, or a polymerization reaction. Some reactions may include auto-tandem reactions. The disclosure further provides reaction mixtures containing an organic molecule and graphene oxide or graphite oxide in an amount sufficient to catalyze a reaction of the organic molecule.

Description

[0001] cross reference [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 349,378, filed May 28, 2010, and US Provisional Application No. 61 / 440,574, filed February 8, 2011, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. [0003] Statement Regarding Federally Funded Research [0004] At least a portion of this invention was developed with US Government support under grant DMR-0907324 from the National Science Foundation. Background technique [0005] Organic material transformations, such as redox reactions, hydration reactions, dehydrogenation reactions, condensation reactions, etc., are catalyzed by a variety of chemical catalysts. However, currently available catalysts and / or reaction methods have many disadvantages such as cost, toxicity, environmental incompatibility, difficulty in separation from reaction products, complex reaction conditions, lack of selectivity, lack of compatibility with functional groups and Inefficient...
