摘要
At present,excessive carbon dioxide(CO_(2))emission has become an increasingly prominent global energy and environmental issue.Therefore,effective methods to convert CO_(2) into fine chemicals are urgently required.Herein,series of S-doped carbon-nitrogen(CNS-X)materials(where X denotes the ratio of thiourea and melamine substances ranging from 0.03 to 0.8)was prepared via the programmed temperature pyrolysis method,which thiourea(CH4N_(2)S)and melamine was used as the precursor of the catalysts.The sulfur source endow the CNS-X acidic sites,which cooperate synergistically with amino groups from the incomplete polymerization of melamine,leading to a bifunctional catalyst for cycloaddition reaction of CO_(2) with epoxides.These catalysts were characterized using X-ray diffraction,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,elemental analysis,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,and N_(2) adsorption-desorption techniques,confirming the successful integration of functional groups.The optimal thiourea doping concentration of 0.4 was certainly found to have considerably facilitated the efficient conversion of CO_(2) by the CNS-0.4 catalyst,in which the conversion of epichlorohydrin(ECH)could achieve over 90.0% and the selectivity of cyclic carbonate is 98.0% under 1.0 MPa at 140℃ for 10 h.The superior catalytic performance of CNS-0.4 was attributable to the synergistic effect arising from the co-existence of Lewis acidic and basic sites.Notably,using CNS-0.4 resulted in a high yield even after four reaction cycles.
