Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of fine chemicals, and particularly relates to a ruthenium-based catalyst for the partial hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexene, a preparation method thereof, and a method for preparing cyclohexene using the same. Background Art

[0002] As a very important organic chemical raw material, cyclohexene is widely used in the synthesis of chemical products such as adipic acid, caprolactam, cyclohexanol, nylon 6, and nylon 66. However, compared with the partial hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexene, the complete hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexane is a thermodynamically more favorable reaction. Therefore, developing a catalyst with high conversion and high selectivity is the key to realizing the partial hydrogenation of benzene.

[0003] Currently, commonly used catalysts for the partial hydrogenation of benzene include ruthenium-based catalysts, nickel-based catalysts, palladium-based catalysts, etc. Among them, ruthenium-based catalysts have attracted much attention due to their high activity and selectivity, but there are still the following problems: 1) Ruthenium nanoparticles are prone to agglomeration during the reaction process, resulting in a decrease in catalytic activity; 2) The selectivity of the partial hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexene is relatively low, and side product cyclohexane is easily generated; 3) Traditional catalyst support materials (such as activated carbon, alumina, titanium dioxide, and diatomite, etc.) have a limited specific surface area and insufficient chemical stability, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-performance catalysts. In order to improve the activity and stability of the catalyst, it is crucial to find a support with a large specific surface area and good stability.

[0004] In order to improve the stability of the catalyst, benzene conversion, and cyclohexene selectivity, it is necessary to select a suitable support to improve the overall performance of the catalyst. As a new type of spherical carbon material, oxidized fullerene has the following characteristics: 1) The high specific surface area of oxidized fullerene can provide abundant active sites for the catalyst; 2) The surface of oxidized fullerene contains functional groups such as hydroxyl groups and carboxyl groups, which can significantly enhance the dispersion and stability of metal catalysts; 3) The electronic structure of oxidized fullerene can adjust the activity and selectivity of the catalyst, improving the reaction efficiency; 4) Oxidized fullerene exhibits excellent chemical stability under conditions such as high temperature and strong acids and bases, and is suitable as a catalyst support.

[0005] In order to reduce the catalyst cost, improve the catalytic activity, overcome the defects that the existing catalysts for the preparation of cyclohexene by the partial hydrogenation of benzene have limited improvement in benzene conversion and cyclohexene selectivity, and it is difficult to maintain high cyclohexene selectivity at high benzene conversion, poor resistance to process fluctuations, large usage amount, and poor stability, it is necessary to provide a simple and feasible ruthenium-based catalyst for the partial hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexene with high catalytic activity, high benzene conversion, and cyclohexene selectivity, a preparation method thereof, and an application.
