Preparation and Application of a Hydrochar-Based Palladium Nanocatalyst for the Reduction of Nitroarenes.

ABSTRACT: In the present study, a novel heterogeneous catalyst was successfully fabricated through the decoration of palladium nanoparticles on the surface of designed Fe₃O₄-coffee waste composite (Pd-Fe₃O₄-CWH) for the catalytic reduction of nitroarenes. Various characterization techniques such as XRD, FE-SEM and EDS were used to establish its nano-sized chemical structure. It was determined that Pd-Fe₃O₄-CWH is a useful nanocatalyst, which can efficiently reduce various nitroarenes, including 4-nitrobenzoic acid (4-NBA), 4-nitroaniline (4-NA), 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine (4-NPD), 2-nitroaniline (2-NA) and 3-nitroanisole (3-NAS), using NaBH₄ in aqueous media and ambient conditions. Catalytic reactions were monitored with the help of high-performance liquid chromatography. Additionally, Pd-Fe₃O₄-CWH was proved to be a reusable catalyst by maintaining its catalytic activity through six successive runs. Moreover, the nanocatalyst displayed a superior catalytic performance compared to other catalysts by providing a shorter reaction time to complete the reduction in nitroarenes.

Preparation of CdS-TiO2-Based Palladium Heterogeneous Nanocatalyst by Solvothermal Route and Its Catalytic Activity for Reduction of Nitroaromatic Compounds.

Project description:In this study, bare CdS nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by solvothermal method using CdCl2(3-methylbenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone)2 as a single-source molecular precursor in the presence of ethylene glycol. Further, these CdS NPs were used for the preparation of binary (CdS-TiO2) and ternary (CdS-TiO2/Pd) heterogeneous nanocatalysts. Characterization of the as-prepared nanocatalysts has been carried out using different techniques such as powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and photoluminescence studies. The peak observed at 2? = 39.5° in XRD confirms the successful doping of noble metal (Pd) on the surface of CdS-TiO2 nanocatalyst, which is well supported by Raman analysis. From FESEM and TEM analyses, mixed morphology has been observed and elemental composition was confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy elemental mapping. Furthermore, the as-prepared bare CdS NPs, binary CdS-TiO2, and ternary CdS-TiO2/Pd heterogeneous nanocatalysts were used for the reductive transformation of various nitroaromatic compounds to their corresponding aromatic amines at room temperature. It has been observed that among all of the catalysts, ternary CdS-TiO2/Pd heterogeneous nanocatalyst has excellent catalytic property to reduce all nitroaromatic compounds in very short time span.

Platinum-trimer decorated cobalt-palladium core-shell nanocatalyst with promising performance for oxygen reduction reaction.

Project description:Advanced electrocatalysts with low platinum content, high activity and durability for the oxygen reduction reaction can benefit the widespread commercial use of fuel cell technology. Here, we report a platinum-trimer decorated cobalt-palladium core-shell nanocatalyst with a low platinum loading of only 2.4?wt% for the use in alkaline fuel cell cathodes. This ternary catalyst shows a mass activity that is enhanced by a factor of 30.6 relative to a commercial platinum catalyst, which is attributed to the unique charge localization induced by platinum-trimer decoration. The high stability of the decorated trimers endows the catalyst with an outstanding durability, maintaining decent electrocatalytic activity with no degradation for more than 322,000 potential cycles in alkaline electrolyte. These findings are expected to be useful for surface engineering and design of advanced fuel cell catalysts with atomic-scale platinum decoration.

Single-Step Preparation of Silver-Doped Magnetic Hybrid Nanoparticles for the Catalytic Reduction of Nitroarenes.

Project description:This study adopts a simple but facile process for preparing silver-doped magnetic nanoparticles by the spontaneous oxidation-reduction/coprecipitation method. The preparation can be achieved in one pot with a single step, and the prepared silver-doped magnetic nanoparticles were utilized as nanocatalysts for the reduction of o-nitroaniline. Utilizing the magnetic characteristics of the prepared nanoparticles, the catalytic reactions can be carried out under quasi-homogeneous condition and the nanocatalysts can be easily collected after the conversion is achieved. It can be revealed from the results that the morphologies and the composition of the prepared silver-doped magnetic nanoparticles can be adjusted by changing the conditions during the production, which affects the efficacy of the catalysis. In addition, the catalysis efficiency is also controlled by the pH, temperature, and the amounts of nanocatalysts used during the catalytic reaction. Finally, the silver-doped magnetic nanocatalysts prepared in this study own the advantages of easy preparation, room-temperature catalysis, high conversion ability, and recyclability, which make them more applicable in real utilities.

Preparation and characterization of cornstalk microspheric hydrochar and adsorption mechanism of mesotrione.

Project description:In this study, cornstalk was pyrolysed to obtain hydrochar (HC), which was used to remove mesotrione from aqueous solutions. HC characterization and batch experiments were conducted to investigate mesotrione adsorption and the underlying mechanism. The characterization revealed microspheres on the HC surface. FT-IR spectra showed that the HC contained a large number of -OH groups, C=C bonds of aromatic rings, C-H groups in aromatic rings and phenolic C-O bonds. The adsorption results showed that the mesotrione adsorption ability gradually increased as the HC preparation temperature increased. The quasi-second-order kinetic equation (R2 ≥ 0.9860, p < 0.05) agreed well with the mesotrione adsorption process. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity, which was obtained at pH 7 and 45°C with HC prepared at 240°C, was 3181.7 mg kg-1 with the Langmuir isotherm model (R2 ≥ 0.9491, p < 0.05). Van der Waals and dipole forces and hydrogen bonds were inferred as the main adsorption mechanisms. HC has potential as an effective and energy-saving adsorbent for mesotrione to reduce environmental pollution.

Nitrate reduction by Geobacter sulfurreducens and the catalytic role of palladium on the reduction pathway

Project description:Geobacter sulfurreducens is a widely explored microorganism recognized by its metabolic versatility able to reduce a number of external electron acceptors. In the present study the capacity of this strain to reduce nitrate was evaluated along with its transcriptomic profile under nitrate-reducing conditions and the catalytic role of Pd nanoparticles on the reductive pathway. Results demonstrated that G. sulfurreducens was able to reduce nitrate and important kinetic differences related to the time response were found among the electron donors used (acetate and hydrogen). When using acetate, a delay response on nitrate reduction of 4 days and reduction of 94% of nitrate was achieved, while nitrite was not detected, and all the nitrogen was recovered as ammonium (79.6 ± 5.7 %). The use of hydrogen as electron donor increased 2-fold the maximum rate of nitrate reduction, leading to 93% reduction of nitrate during the first 20 h with recovery of 45% as ammonium, while nitrite was not detected. In addition, transcriptome profiling analysis of G. sulfurreducens under nitrate-reducing conditions using hydrogen or acetate as an electron donor at 2 and 6 days reveals that a core of 146 genes (69 upregulated and 77 downregulated) are differentially expressed in all conditions. Genes related to nitrogen metabolism, such as nrfA and nrfH, gdhA, and amtB, were upregulated in the incubations and RT-qPCR data confirmed upregulations of these genes. Experiments performed with biologically synthesized Pd (Bio-Pd) + G. sulfurreducens cells demonstrated synergistic input of Bio-Pd and the metabolic capacity of G. sulfurreducens. These results expand the metabolic versatility of G. sulfurreducens, which may have important implications in nitrogen cycling in natural environments and engineered systems.

Catalytic Reductive Alkylation of Amines in Batch and Microflow Conditions Using a Silicon-Wafer-Based Palladium Nanocatalyst.

Project description:We describe the development of the catalytic reductive alkylation of amines with aldehydes under the atmospheric pressure of H2 using a brush-like silicon-nanostructure-supported palladium nanoparticle composite (SiNS-Pd) as a silicon-wafer-based reusable heterogeneous catalyst. The present reaction of primary and secondary amines with various aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of the catalyst (0.02-0.05 mol % Pd) gave the corresponding secondary and tertiary amines including Lomerizine and Aticaprant in a 68% quantitative yield without overalkylation. We also designed and fabricated a flow device equipped with SiNS-Pd for microflow reactions, which was applied to the gas-liquid-solid triphasic reaction system (i.e., H2 gas, a substrate solution, and a solid catalyst). A multigram-scale reaction of aniline and benzaldehyde was demonstrated to obtain N-benzylaniline (ca. 4 g/day), in which the internal volume of the flow channel was 43 μL, the residence time was approximately 1 s, and the turnover number (TON) reached 4.0 × 104 in a continuous 24 h run (1.7 × 103 h-1; 0.50 s-1).

Palladium Catalyzed Arylation and Benzylation of Nitroarenes Using Aryl Sulfonates and Benzyl Acetates.

Project description:Pd-catalyzed arylation or benzylation of nitroazoles using aryl sulfonates or benzyl acetates is described. Electronically varied aryl tosylates and mesylates, as well as benzyl acetates, afford the arylated and benzylated products. Arylation of nitrobenzene is also reported. The relative rate for the arylation of halides is greater than that of tosylates using the reported reaction parameters. These studies enhance the scope of electrophiles for nitroarene arylations and benzylations, which was hitherto limited to the use of halide electrophiles.

Highly Selective Synthesis of Hydrazoarenes from Nitroarenes via Polystyrene-Supported Au-Nanoparticle-Catalyzed Reduction: Application to Azoarenes, Aminoarenes, and 4,4'-Diaminobiaryls.

Project description:A selective synthesis of hydrazoarene from nitroarene and its application are reported. Using polystyrene (PS) resins as solid supports for Au nanoparticles (AuNPs), polystyrene-supported Au nanoparticles (AuNPs@PS) were synthesized and characterized. In the presence of AuNPs@PS (1.0 mol %) as a catalyst, nitroarenes afforded corresponding hydrazoarenes (up to 99%) with high selectivity (up to 100%) under mild reaction conditions (NaBH4, 50% aq. EtOH, and room temperature). Depending on the reaction conditions (the amount of NaBH4, the substituent of nitroarenes, and the sequential addition of HCl), nitroarenes were converted to corresponding azoarenes (up to 95%), aminoarenes (up to 99%), and 4,4'-diaminobiaryls (up to 99%). Our easily recyclable catalytic system using a solid-phase reaction vessel provides an attractive synthetic method in an eco-friendly and sustainable manner.

Structure sensitive photocatalytic reduction of nitroarenes over TiO <sub>2</sub>.

Project description:It is a subject of exploration whether the phase pure anatase or rutile TiO2 or the band alignment due to the heterojunctions in the two polymorphs of TiO2 plays the determining role in efficacy of a photocatalytic reaction. In this work, the phase pure anatase and rutile TiO2 have been explored for photocatalytic nitroarenes reduction to understand the role of surface structures and band alignment towards the reduction mechanism. The conduction band of synthesized anatase TiO2 has been found to be more populated with electrons of higher energy than that of synthesized rutile. This has given the anatase an edge towards photocatalytic reduction of nitroarenes over rutile TiO2. The other factors like adsorption of the reactants and the proton generation did not play any decisive role in catalytic efficacy.

Biomolecule-Mediated Generation of Ru Nanocatalyst for Sustainable Reduction of Nitrobenzene.

Project description:A mild and sustainable synthetic route was followed for the generation of biomolecule-assisted Ru nanocatalyst under open as well as inert atmosphere using the polyphenol morin. The nanocatalyst was characterized thoroughly by powder X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, absorption spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. The nanocatalyst reveals excellent catalytic activity for the reduction of several substituted nitrobenzene to aniline derivatives under simple, mild, and environment-friendly conditions. The catalyst can be reused for four consecutive cycles without significant loss in its catalytic activity.
