Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of olefin catalysis, specifically to Rh-based catalysts, their preparation methods and applications, and methods for the hydroformylation of olefins. Background Technology

[0002] The hydroformylation of olefins is one of the most widely used organic synthesis reactions in chemical production. This reaction refers to the conversion of olefin molecules into aldehyde molecules with one more carbon atom under the action of a catalyst. This process has good atom economy and is currently the most important technology for the production of aldehyde compounds, with a global production capacity of over 20 million tons per year.

[0003] Aldehydes can be further converted into compounds such as alcohols, acids, or amines through reactions such as hydrogenation, oxidation, and reductive amination. These chemicals can be widely used in plasticizers, fragrances, and pharmaceuticals, and have high economic value.

[0004] Currently, the main industrial method is the homogeneous reaction system, which uses metal complexes composed of organophosphorus ligands as catalysts to catalyze the hydroformylation of olefins.

[0005] While homogeneous systems can achieve high olefin conversion rates and product selectivity, homogeneous catalysts face challenges such as difficult catalyst separation, precious metal loss due to catalyst decomposition, and phosphorus pollution. Furthermore, the synthesis of organophosphorus ligands is cumbersome and requires stringent storage and usage conditions.

[0006] The aforementioned problems increase the production cost and energy consumption of homogeneous catalytic systems. In contrast, constructing heterogeneous catalysts by loading the active component onto a support surface allows for the simultaneous catalytic hydroformylation of olefins, while leveraging the advantages of separation and recovery inherent in heterogeneous catalysts to ensure efficient operation of the overall reaction process. Therefore, there is a strong demand for developing a heterogeneous hydroformylation catalyst that meets application requirements at the industrial level.

[0007] The team led by Zeng Jie at the Institute of Advanced Technology, University of Science and Technology of China, disclosed a Rh / CoO nanocatalyst, its preparation method, and its application in CN106362766A. The catalyst uses two-dimensional crystal structure CoO nanosheets as a support and Rh as the active component, and exhibits excellent activity in the hydroformylation reaction of propylene.

[0008] The team led by Zhang Tao at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics disclosed in CN107537481A a supported single-atom rhodium-based catalyst and its application in the hydroformylation of olefins. The catalyst uses ZnO nanorods as a support and Rh as the active component, and exhibits excellent activity in the hydroformylation of styrene. Its catalytic performance exceeds that of the classic Wilkinson catalyst RhCl(PPh3)3.

[0009] The team led by Ding Yunjie at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics disclosed a catalyst system for the hydroformylation of propylene to butyraldehyde and a method for using it in CN104667977A. The system uses an organic ligand polymer composed of organic ligand monomers containing phosphorus and vinyl groups as a support to support Rh, Ir, or Co, which has a high propylene conversion rate and butyraldehyde selectivity.

[0010] However, the preparation processes of heterogeneous hydroformylation catalysts currently reported in patent literature or papers are all quite complex, and most of them are for the hydroformylation of low-carbon olefins.

[0011] Therefore, developing a catalyst that is easy to prepare and has excellent catalytic performance for the hydroformylation of high-carbon olefins has become a major goal in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0071] Example 1

[0072] The specific steps for preparing Rh-based catalysts and applying them to the hydroformylation of high-carbon olefins are as follows:

[0073] (1) Weigh 1.38 mg of RhCl3·3H2O and 246 mg of Co(NO3)2·6H2O and dissolve them in 5 mL of anhydrous ethanol to obtain a precursor salt solution of the active component.

[0074] (2) At room temperature, with the aid of a vortex oscillator, the precursor salt solution was added dropwise to 1.000 g of commercially available hydrophilic nano-silica carrier (Hydrophilic-380) for impregnation. Subsequently, the mixture was ultrasonically treated at room temperature to ensure that the carrier and the precursor solution were mixed evenly.

[0075] (3) The mixture was aged at room temperature for 12 hours and then completely dried in an oven at 80°C to obtain the catalyst precursor.

[0076] (4) The catalyst precursor was reduced in a hydrogen atmosphere at a preset temperature of 500℃ for 3 hours to obtain a supported Rh-based catalyst.

Then depressurize and replace the gas in the reactor. Repeat this process three times. Then purge with 4 MPa of syngas (CO:H2 = 1:1). Then heat to 120 °C and react for 8 h. After stopping the reaction, cool to room temperature and depressurize. Add 300 μL of n-decane as an internal standard to the reaction solution and take a sample. Analyze the sample using an Agilent 6890N chromatograph equipped with a DB-WAX capillary column. The catalytic activity test results of the catalyst are shown in Table 1.

[0123] Table 1

[0124]

[0125]

[0126] As shown in Table 1, the Rh-based catalyst prepared in this invention exhibits high olefin conversion and selectivity for carbonylation products (aldehydes and alcohols) in the catalytic hydroformylation of heterogeneous olefins, with Rh playing a crucial role. The catalyst performance gradually improves with increasing Rh content. Specifically, based on the mass of the SiO2 support, the optimal Rh mass fraction is 0.5-0.7 wt%, and further addition beyond this range does not significantly enhance performance.

[0127] Examples 3, 6, and 7 involve fixing the Co and Rh content in the catalyst and changing the support used to affect the catalyst performance. The specific test results are shown in Table 2.

The preparation method provided by this invention can form CoO-modified Rh active species with excellent activity on the surface of different supports to catalyze the hydroformylation reaction of olefins.

[0131] The effect of olefin type on catalyst activity in the olefin hydroformylation activity tests of Examples 3, 8 to 11 is shown in Table 3.
