Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biomass conversion technology, and more specifically, to a method for preparing 3-acetamido-5-acetylfuran using chitin. Background Technology
[0002] Chitin, also known as chitosan, is a polysaccharide composed of N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) linked by β-1,4 glycosidic bonds. It is the only nitrogen-containing polysaccharide found in nature. The structure of chitin is as follows.
[0003]
[0004] Chitin is abundant in natural resources, widely found in shrimp and crab shells, insect exoskeletons, and microorganisms such as fungi and microalgae, with an annual production exceeding 1 billion tons. Furthermore, chitin is the most abundant naturally occurring nitrogen-containing polysaccharide. The conversion of chitin-based biomass into nitrogen-containing chemicals is of great significance for promoting the achievement of "two carbon" targets (carbon dioxide, carbon sequestration, and carbon emissions).
[0005] 3-Acetamido-5-acetylfuran (3A5AF) is a nitrogen-containing platform compound that can be converted into a series of nitrogen-containing downstream chemicals, with applications in materials preparation, pharmaceutical synthesis, pesticide synthesis, and fine chemicals. The structure of 3A5AF is as follows:
[0006]
[0007] From the structural unit NAG of chitin, chitin and NAG are ideal renewable raw materials for the preparation of 3A5AF. However, current research mostly uses N-acetylglucosamine as a raw material to prepare 3A5AF in homogeneous reactions with protic acids such as hydrochloric acid and boric acid, or Lewis acids such as CaCl2 metal salts, or with ionic liquids as catalysts. This method has insurmountable drawbacks such as strong corrosivity, low product selectivity, low efficiency, and complex separation.
[0008] L-type molecular sieves (International Molecular Sieve Association code: LTL) are macroporous molecular sieves with cylindrical crystals and a one-dimensional channel structure parallel to the cylindrical axis. They are formed by the stacking of alternating hexagonal columnar cages and nepheline cages along the C-axis, which are then rotated along a sixfold axis to generate twelve-membered ring channels. The pore size is 0.71 nm, and the kinetic diameter is 0.81 nm. Its pore size is close to that of NAG molecules, which is beneficial for the selective conversion of chitin and the formation of 3A5AF from NAG. Furthermore, by modifying the structure of L-type molecular sieves and controlling their acidity, the conversion efficiency can be improved.
[0009] Current reported methods for preparing 3A5AF from chitin and NAG mainly employ homogeneous catalytic systems, resulting in low yields (below 60%). Furthermore, these methods suffer from difficulties in product separation and the inability to reuse catalysts, hindering industrial-scale implementation. Additionally, the hydrolysis of chitin into chitosan oligosaccharides or NAG byproducts can negatively impact the activity of catalysts catalyzing the conversion of chitosan oligosaccharides or NAG to 3A5AF, leading to reduced catalytic efficiency or deactivation. Developing novel catalytic systems for the direct catalytic preparation of 3A5AF from chitin represents a promising direction for addressing these challenges; however, there are currently no reports on the direct catalytic preparation of 3A5AF from chitin using heterogeneous catalytic systems. Summary of the Invention
[0010] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art and provide a method for preparing 3-acetamido-5-acetylfuran using chitin. This method utilizes L-zeolite and / or doped L-zeolite for efficient catalytic conversion of chitin to prepare 3A5AF, establishing a green technology for heterogeneous catalytic preparation of 3A5AF. Furthermore, this invention boasts high efficiency, higher product yield than existing methods, easily separable and reusable catalyst, and no corrosion to equipment, demonstrating excellent application prospects.

[0108] 3.72 g (16.3 mmol) of benzyltrimethylammonium chloride and 6.28 g (32.6 mmol) of citric acid were added to a 100 mL round-bottom flask and stirred at 400 rpm for 1 h at 100 °C to form a clear solution. 0.50 g of chitin was dissolved in the above solvent; 0.05 g of the B-doped L molecular sieve prepared in Comparative Example 1 was added, and the reaction was carried out at 160 °C for 60 min. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed that the yield of 3A5AF was 27.6%.
[0109] The heteroatom-doped L molecular sieve prepared by this invention shows a significant increase in the yield of 3A5AF after heteroatom doping modification, indicating that the method of this invention can effectively improve the catalytic performance of L molecular sieves, thereby increasing the yield of 3A5AF.

[0111] L-molecule sieves and doped L-molecule sieves prepared according to the methods of Examples 1-3 were used to catalyze the chitin conversion to prepare 3-acetamido-5-acetylfuran under different conditions. The yield of 3A5AF obtained in Example 4 was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0116] Example 7. Lifetime experiment of L-molecular sieve catalysis for the preparation of 3-acetamido-5-acetylfuran from chitin.
[0117] 0.50 g of chitin was dissolved in a eutectic solvent of 10 g benzyltrimethylammonium chloride and citric acid in a ratio of 1:2. 0.10 g of the L-type molecular sieve with a Si / Al ratio of 5 prepared in Example 2 was added, and the mixture was reacted at 170°C for 1 hour. The molecular sieve was separated by centrifugation, and the mixture was again added to a eutectic solvent of 10 g benzyltrimethylammonium chloride and citric acid in a ratio of 1:2 containing 0.50 g of chitin. The reaction was repeated at 170°C for 1 hour; this process was repeated 5 times. Using 3A5AF obtained in Example 4 as a standard, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed that the yields of 3A5AF after the five reactions were 90.6%, 90.3%, 90.4%, 90.1%, and 89.9%, respectively, indicating that the catalytic activity of the molecular sieve remained essentially unchanged.
