MOF-derived hcp-Co nanoparticles encapsulated in ultrathin graphene for carboxylic acids hydrogenation to alcohols

Highly efficient conversion of carboxylic acids to valuable alcohols is a great challenge for easily corroded non-noble metal catalysts. Here, a series of few-layer graphene encapsulated metastable hexagonal closed-packed (hcp) Co nanoparticles were fabricated by reductive pyrolysis of metal-organic framework precursor. The sample pyrolyzed at 400 °C (hcp-Co@G400) presented outstanding performance and stability for converting a variety of functional carboxylic acids and its turnover frequency was one magnitude higher than that of conventional facc-centered cubic (fcc) Co catalysts. In situ DRIFTS spectroscopy of model reaction acetic acid hydrogenation and DFT calculation results confirm that carboxylic acid initially undergoes dehydroxylation to RCH2CO* followed by consecutive hydrogenation to RCH2CH2OH through RCH2COH*. Acetic acid prefers to vertically adsorb at hcp-Co (0 0 2) facet with a much lower adsorption energy than parallel adsorption at fcc-Co (1 1 1) surface, which plays a key role in decreasing the activation barrier of the rate-determining step of acetic acid dehydroxylation.

Lubricant base oil for power transmission

An object of the present invention is to provide a lubricant base oil for power transmission (in particular, a lubricant base oil for traction drives) having a high traction coefficient and a high flash point. The present invention relates to a lubricant base oil for power transmission comprising an alicyclic dicarboxylic acid diester compound represented by general formula (1): wherein R1 to R5 are the same or different, and each represents hydrogen or linear or branched C1-4 alkyl, and two R1, two R2, two R3, two R4, and two R5 may respectively be the same or different; and ring A is wherein R represents C1-3 alkyl, and n represents 0, 1, or 2; when n represents 2, R may be the same or different.

Catalytic hydrogenation products of aromatic and aliphatic dicarboxylic acids

Hydrogenation of aromatic dicarboxylic acids gave 100 % selectivity to respective cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid with 5 % Pd/C catalyst. 5 % Ru/C catalyst was observed to give over hydrogenation products at 493 K and at lower temperature (453 K) the selectivity for cyclohexane dicarboxylic acids was increased. Hydrogenation of phthalic acid with Ru-Sn/Al2O3 catalyst was observed to give phthalide instead of 1,2-benzene dimethanol or 2-hydroxy methyl benzoic acid. Ru-Sn/Al2O3 catalyst selectively hydrogenated the carboxylic group of cyclohexane dicarboxylic acids to give cyclohexane dimethanol. Use of proper catalysts and reaction conditions resulted in desired products.
