NH3-TPD revealed that the strong acidic centers in γ-Al2O3 are not the major factor to cause the hydrolysis of esters to acids in the hydrogenation of esters. The results of TPR and TEM indicate that the appropriately added lanthanum results in the good dispersion of ruthenium and the easy reduction of ruthenium oxide on Ru-Laγ-Al2O3, which could promote the catalytic activity of Ru-La/γ-Al2O3 for the hydrogenation of methyl propionate to propanol. When the amount of lanthanum added in the catalyst was up to 9%(mass fraction), 4%Ru-9%La/γ-Al2O3 catalyst gave a conversion of methyl propionate of 98.1% and a selectivity of 94.8% to propanol at a reaction temperature of 180℃ and a hydro- gen pressure of 5.0 MPa.展开更多

With the addition of CoCl 2 (7 wt%), more than 8 wt% of hydrogen was released from Li 2 BNH 6 at temperatures below 210°C, which is approximately 90°C lower than that of pristine Li 2 BNH 6 . X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform-infrared and Raman characterizations revealed that the dehydrogenation was a stepwise process with the formation of intermediates Li 4 BN 3 H 10 and LiBH 4 and final products of Li 3 BN 2 and LiH. The introduction of Co greatly accelerated the dehydrogenation of Li 4 BN 3 H 10 . X-ray absorption near-edge structure measurements revealed that Co and CoB species formed during ball milling of CoCl 2 with LiBH 4 and LiNH 2 , which may function as catalyst in the subsequent dehydrogenation.展开更多

In aqueous system, the propanol yield of 〉99% was achieved under the conditions of reaction temperature of 150 ℃ and hydrogen pressure of 5.0 MPa, while in non-aqueous system the maximum propanol yield was only 47.0%. FTIR spectra and hydrogenation results indicated that the high catalytic performance of Ru/ZrO2 xH2O in aqueous phase results from the cooperation effect between water as a solvent and hydroxyl groups on the surtace of carrier.展开更多
