Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention discloses a molybdenum-vanadium polyacid-based heterogeneous catalyst for the catalytic oxidation of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol to synthesize 2,3,5-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone. Background Technology

[0002] Functionalized p-benzoquinones are a class of highly valuable intermediates that play a key role in biopharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. The synthesis of functionalized p-benzoquinones by direct oxidation of alkylphenols is a highly efficient route that maintains the basic framework of the benzene ring and reduces the generation of byproducts. Among them, 2,3,5-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone, a key intermediate of vitamin E, can be directly synthesized by oxidation of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol.

[0003] Polyoxometalates (hereinafter referred to as "polyacids") are inorganic metal-oxygen clusters formed from transition metals. Due to their excellent catalytic oxidation performance, good thermal stability, and chemical stability, they have attracted widespread attention in the field of catalysis. However, the difficulty in recovering homogeneous catalysts hinders their further application. Furthermore, for most polyacid-based heterogeneous catalysts, their catalytic activity is often lower than that of the original polyacid, and the weak binding between the polyacid and the support leads to leaching of the polyacid during the reaction. Therefore, selecting a suitable support material to enhance the binding ability between the two is key to solving these problems.

[0004] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline porous materials formed by the self-assembly of metal ions / metal clusters and organic ligands through coordination bonds. Their derived carbon materials inherit the high specific surface area of ​​MOFs and also possess the high stability of carbon materials. Furthermore, the metal nodes are transformed in situ into metal / metal oxide nanoparticles, which can be further combined with polyacids. On the one hand, this enhances the structural stability of the catalyst, and on the other hand, it enhances the catalytic activity through a synergistic effect. Therefore, MOFs can serve as an excellent support material. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To overcome the problems of traditional polyacid materials being difficult to recover as homogeneous catalysts and having poor stability and low catalytic efficiency as heterogeneous catalysts, this invention utilizes a hydrothermal method and selects molybdenum-vanadium polyacid (Mo). 72 V 30 and metal-organic framework-derived materials CuO x Using / CoO / NC as a support, a molybdenum-vanadium polyacid-based heterogeneous catalyst was prepared and applied to the catalytic oxidation of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol to synthesize 2,3,5-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone. The catalyst prepared in this invention has high catalytic activity and cycle stability.

[0006] A molybdenum-vanadium polyacid-based heterogeneous catalyst with the chemical formula Mo 72 V 30 / CuO x / CoO / NC, where Mo 72 V 30 The molecular formula is Na₂K₂ 16 (VO)(H2O)5[K 10 ,{(Mo)Mo5O 21 (H2O)3(SO4)} 12 (VO) 30 (H2O) 20 ]·150H2O.

[0007] The preparation of a molybdenum-vanadium polyacid-based heterogeneous catalyst includes the following steps:

[0008] (1) Mo 72 V 30 Synthesis:

[0009] First, 2.6 g of NaVO3 was added to 55 mL of water at 60℃ and stirred for 15 min until completely dissolved, yielding solution A. Separately, 6 g of Na2MoO4·2H2O was dissolved in 75 mL of water and stirred for 15 min, yielding solution B. After solution A cooled to room temperature, solution B was added, and stirring continued for 15 min. Then, 0.9 g of N2H4·H2SO4 was added, and the solution gradually turned dark purple. Stirring continued at room temperature for 3 h. Next, 20 mL of KCl aqueous solution containing 3 g of KCl was added, and after stirring for 5 min, the solution was transferred to a 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask. The flask was left open in the air for 4 days, during which dark purple crystals precipitated from the solution. After filtration, the crystals were collected, washed several times with ethanol, and dried at room temperature for 24 h to obtain purplish-black crystals, which were Mo. 72 V 30 .

[0010] (2) CuO x Synthesis of / CoO / NC: First, 1.5 g of 1,3,5-pyromellitic acid was dissolved in 45 mL of a mixed solvent of ethanol and N,N-dimethylformamide (volume ratio 1:1), labeled as solution A; separately, 3.1 g of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O was dissolved in 22.5 mL of water, labeled as solution B. Both solutions were stirred separately at room temperature for 10 min to ensure complete dissolution. Then, solution B was added to solution A and stirring was continued for 30 min. The mixed solution was transferred to a 100 mL polytetrafluoroethylene-lined high-pressure reactor and maintained at 110 °C for 10 h. The resulting blue microcrystals were centrifuged, washed with ethanol, and dried under vacuum at 60 °C for 12 h to obtain HKUST-1.

[0011] The synthesized HKUST-1 (50 mg) was ultrasonically dispersed in 50 mL of methanol and stirred for 30 min to obtain a homogeneous suspension, labeled as solution A. 8 mmol of 2-methylimidazole was dissolved in 50 mL of methanol and stirred for 30 min, labeled as solution B. 2 mmol of Co(NO3)2·6H2O was added to solution A and stirred vigorously for 30 min to form solution C. Solution B was poured into solution C and stirred vigorously for 4 h. The resulting solid was collected by centrifugation, washed three times with methanol, and dried under vacuum at 60 °C for 12 h to obtain a purple powder, which was HKUST-1@ZIF-67.

[0012] The synthesized HKUST-1@ZIF-67 was uniformly spread in a ceramic boat and pyrolyzed in a tube furnace under a continuous argon flow. The heating rate was 5 °C / min. -1 Under these conditions, the temperature is raised to 450℃ and held for 2 hours. After the temperature is cooled down to room temperature, the resulting powder is CuO. x / CoO / NC.

[0013] (3) Mo 72 V 30 / CuO x Synthesis of / CoO / NC: First, 30 mg of CuO... x / CoO / NC and 400 mg of Mo 72 V 30 Add to 30 mL of deionized water and stir at room temperature for 12 h. Then transfer to a 50 mL polytetrafluoroethylene-lined high-pressure reactor and maintain at 100 °C for 12 h. After cooling to room temperature, wash three times with ethanol and then dry in a vacuum oven at 60 °C for 12 h. The resulting powder is Mo. 72 V 30 / CuO x / CoO / NC.

[0014] A molybdenum-vanadium polyacid-based heterogeneous catalyst is mainly used in the catalytic oxidation of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol to synthesize 2,3,5-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone.

[0015] The application method described above is as follows: Analysis was performed using a Thermo Fisher U3000 high-performance liquid chromatograph, and the conversion rate of the reaction substrate and the yield of the product were calculated using the external standard method. Prepare 0.1-1.0 mg / mL solutions respectively. -1Standard solutions of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol and 2,3,5-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone were analyzed, and their corresponding peak areas were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A standard curve was plotted by linearly fitting the peak areas against the concentrations. The catalytic oxidation reaction was carried out in a three-necked flask equipped with a reflux condenser. First, the substrate and catalyst were added to a 10 mL three-necked flask, followed by the addition of 1 mL of acetonitrile and stirring to ensure complete dissolution of the substrate. When the temperature reached the predetermined level, 30% H₂O₂ was added. At regular intervals, 0.1 mL samples were taken, diluted, and the conversion rates of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol and the yield of 2,3,5-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone were calculated based on the standard curve.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following characteristics:

[0017] This invention utilizes a hydrothermal synthesis method to synthesize molybdenum-vanadium polyacid (Mo). 72 V 30 and metal-organic framework derived materials CuO x A heterogeneous catalyst with high stability was successfully prepared using / CoO / NC. x The robust bonding of / CoO / NC solves the problems of difficult recovery of homogeneous polyacid catalysts and weak bonding ability of heterogeneous polyacid catalysts, thus enhancing the catalytic cycle stability. The generation of peroxypolyacid species during the reaction is the main reason for the high catalytic activity. CuO, as a strong Lewis acid, can accept the lone pair electrons of phenolic hydroxyl groups, initiating electron transfer from the substrate to the metal, thereby weakening the OH bond and promoting the formation of reaction intermediates. CoO, on the other hand, efficiently activates hydrogen peroxide through a "Fenton-like reaction," continuously generating oxygen-containing free radicals. x The "activation-oxidation" tandem reaction mechanism driven by CoO further enhances its catalytic activity. In the catalytic oxidation of 2,3,6-trimethylphenol to 2,3,5-trimethyl-p-benzoquinone, a conversion rate of 99.4% and a yield of 96.3% were achieved within 2 minutes, and its catalytic activity was significantly higher than that of pure polyacids and supports.
