Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of heterogeneous catalysts in organic chemical industry, and in particular to a bifunctionalized hyper-crosslinked porous organic polymer (HCP-BiCz-IPr) of carbazole and N-heterocyclic carbene precursor 3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolium chloride (IPr·HCl) and a preparation method thereof, as well as application of the polymer in catalyzing the conversion of CO2 and ethylene oxide compounds into cyclic carbonates by cycloaddition. Background Art

[0002] CO2 is one of the components of the atmosphere and a basic component of the carbon cycle in nature. Since the Industrial Revolution, the amount of CO2 gas emitted into the atmosphere by humans has increased year by year, far exceeding the self-circulation and purification capacity of the earth itself, thus bringing about a series of environmental and social problems, such as abnormal climate, rising sea levels, land desertification, species extinction, etc. Excessive CO2 emissions have attracted widespread attention from governments around the world. In 2021, my country took the initiative to propose the "dual carbon" goal, which has become a major strategic goal for my country to achieve green and sustainable development. The absorption and resource utilization (CCUS) of CO2, converting it into useful chemical products, can not only turn waste into treasure, but also promote the realization of the "dual carbon" goal. The cycloaddition reaction of CO2 with ethylene oxide compounds to generate five-membered cyclic carbonates is an important chemical transformation, which has received widespread attention from the business community and academia in recent years. First of all, the cyclic carbonates obtained by this reaction have a wide range of practical application value, such as polar aprotic solvents, electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries, and organic synthesis intermediates. Secondly, the reaction has high atom economy and can achieve 100% utilization of CO2. Due to the stability and chemical inertness of CO2, the reaction requires the action of a catalyst, and a large number of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts have been reported in the literature. Heterogeneous catalysts are easy to separate, recycle and reuse, and have been the focus of research in recent years.

[0003] As a special organic base catalyst, N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) has a good ability to activate CO2 and is widely used in the chemical conversion of CO2. So far, the literature has reported the preparation of some heterogeneous NHC catalysts and their catalytic cycloaddition reactions of carbon dioxide and oxirane compounds. As document 1 (Green Chem. 2011, 13, 644-650), IPr-CO2 is loaded on the surface of mesoporous molecular sieve MCM-41 by silane coupling method, and MCM-41-IPr-CO2 is prepared for catalysis of the cyclization reaction. In CH2Cl2 medium, when the dosage of MCM-41-IPr-CO2 is 0.5 mol%, the pressure of CO2 is 2.0 MPa, and the reaction is carried out at 120°C for 48 hours. The yield of 5 organic cyclic carbonates is between 87-100%, and the catalyst can be recycled more than 4 times. Generally speaking, basic functional groups can adsorb and activate CO2. Therefore, in the heterogeneous catalyst for the catalytic conversion of CO2, the introduction of additional basic functional groups will be beneficial to the enrichment and conversion of CO2. Based on this concept, Literature 2 (ChemSusChem2020, 13, 5996-6004) reported a new type of triazine / NHC bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst. They first designed and prepared a cyano-functionalized IPr·HCl monomer. Then, in a trifluoromethanesulfonic acid medium, while the cyano group was trimerized into triazine, an IPr·HCl functionalized porous organic polymer was constructed. The latter was then added with carbon dioxide under the action of sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (KHMDS) to obtain an IPr-CO2 addition polymer (NHC-CO2-Triazine@Polymer). In this material, triazine is not only a link connecting IPr-CO2, but also can adsorb and activate CO2. When the dosage of NHC-CO2-Triazine@Polymer is 0.5 mol%, there is no solvent, the CO2 pressure is 0.5 MPa, and the reaction is carried out at 100-120 ° C for 6 hours, the yield of 5 organic cyclic carbonates is between 89-98%, and NHC-CO2-Triazine@Polymer can be recycled more than 8 times. Not long ago, Literature 3 reported another base-assisted NHC-CO2 heterogeneous catalyst PEMCx (CN 111138591A, Chem. Eng. J. 2021, 403, 126460). They first free radical polymerized N-vinylimidazole and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate to obtain an imidazole-functionalized porous organic polymer, and then the polymer was solvent-thermally treated with dimethyl carbonate. Part of the imidazole was converted into NHC-CO2, and the unconverted imidazole acted as a base to assist in catalysis. When the dosage of PEMC1 is 1.1 mol%, without solvent, CO2 pressure is 10 bar, and the reaction is carried out at 120°C for 4-16 hours, the yield of 10 organic cyclic carbonates is between 94-99%, and PEMC1 can be recycled for more than 5 times.

[0004] In summary, it can be found that heterogeneous NHC catalysts have shown important development potential in catalyzing the cycloaddition of CO2 and organic oxirane compounds into cyclic carbonates. In particular, the recent development of base-assisted NHC bifunctional catalysts can significantly improve the catalytic activity of the catalyst and improve production efficiency. However, the existing heterogeneous NHC catalysts still have disadvantages such as large catalyst usage and complex catalyst preparation process. In particular, the NHC catalyst needs to be converted into a CO2 adduct (NHC-CO2), which increases the preparation steps of the catalyst. Therefore, it is still necessary to develop a heterogeneous catalyst with low production cost, simple synthesis method, high catalyst activity and can be used for catalytic conversion of CO2 into cyclic carbonates.

[0091] Example 3 Recovery and Recycling of Catalyst HCP-BiCz-IPr

[0092] The above-mentioned catalyst HCP-BiCz-IPr separated by centrifugation can be recycled for multiple times after being washed with 3.0mL×2THF and vacuum dried at 80°C for 2h. The recovered catalyst HCP-BiCz-IPr and styrene oxide (570μL, 5mmoL) were added to a 50mL pressure reactor in sequence. The air in the reactor was replaced with CO2 gas 3 times, and then the pressure was increased to 3.0MPa, and the temperature was raised to 120°C for reaction for 12h. After the same post-treatment, the separation yield of 4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane-2-one was 97%. After the catalyst HCP-BiCz-IPr was washed with THF and vacuum dried, it was continuously recycled for 6 times and still maintained a high catalytic activity. The results are as follows Fig.12 shown.

[0093] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are mainly reflected in:

[0094] (1) The heterogeneous catalyst does not need to be converted into CO2 adduct (NHC-CO2). Under the action of NaHMDS, carbene is generated online to catalyze the cycloaddition reaction of CO2 and organic oxirane compounds.

[0095] (2) The multiphase catalyst has high catalytic activity, requires little catalyst, and the highest TON can reach 996.

[0096] (3) After the reaction, the catalyst can be used continuously for more than 6 times through simple post-treatment and still maintain excellent catalytic activity.
