Samples were characterized by negative-ion ESI FT-ICR MS. The O2 class species (petroleum carboxylic acids), which have a close relationship with corrosion of equipment caused by high-acidity crudes, were put in the focus of attention and were discussed in this paper. Monocyclic, bicyclic, and tricyclic naphthenic acids are the main types of petroleum carboxylic acids in naphthenic-base crudes (SZ36-1 and QHD326). But the main types of petroleum carboxylic acids in paraffinic-base crude (Dar) are aliphatic acids and monocyclic naphthenic acids. The O2 class species in SZ36-1 and QHD326 are distributed in a wider range and have bigger DBE value (double-bond equivalence value) and carbon number than Dar. Bicyclic naphthenic acids have the highest proportion among petroleum carboxylie acids in diesel distillates, but monocyclic and tricyclic naphthenic acids also occupy a high proportion. Particularly, aliphatic acids in the diesel distillate of Dar still have high proportion among petroleum carboxylic acids. The distribution of petroleum carboxylic acids in VGO is basically identical. The bicyclic naphthenic acids assume the first place (about 25 m%), while the monocyclic and tricyclic naphthenic acids take the next place. The comparison of petroleum carboxylic acids in diesel distillates and VGOs has revealed that the molecules of carboxylic acids in VGOs are not only bigger but also more complicated.展开更多

The test results revealed that aliphatic acids and monocyclic naphthenic acids accounted for a large proportion in petroleum carboxylic acids of the Dar crude. The relative abundance of aliphatic acids and monocyclic naphthenic acids decreased with an increasing boiling point of fractions. Meanwhile, the relative abundance of bicyclic and tricyclic naphthenic acids increased at first and then decreased, whereas the relative abundance of petroleum carboxylic acids with higher double-bond equivalence (DBE) values increased. The high abundance of aliphatic acids in the Dar crude and its fractions covered the carbon numbers in a range of 16 to 18 which had important geochemical signifi- cance. The O2 class species were distributed in a broad range of DBE values and carbon numbers with increasing boiling points of fractions.展开更多

Here, sulfonated carbon, as catalyst for oxidation reaction, was prepared via the carbonization of starch followed by sulfonation with concentrated sulfuric acid. N2 physisorption, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence and acid-base titration were used to characterize the obtained materials. The catalytic activity of sulfonated carbon was studied in the oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids using 30 wt% H2O2 as oxidant.

Electrochemical fixation of carbon dioxide, electrochemical carboxylation, organic halides, organic triflates, alkenes, aromatic compounds, and carbonyl compounds can readily occur in the presence of an atmospheric pressure of carbon dioxide to form the corresponding carboxylic acids with high yields, when a sacrificial anode such as magnesium or aluminum is used in the electrolysis. The electrochemical carboxylation of vinyl bromides was successfully applied for the synthesis of the precursor of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents such as ibuprofen and naproxen. On the other hand, supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) has significant potential as an environmentally benign solvent in organic synthesis and it could be used both as a solvent and as a reagent in these electrochemical carboxylations by using a small amount of cosolvent.展开更多

文摘Catalytic reduction systems of 2-furancarboxylic acid(FCA)and 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid(FDCA)with H 2 without reduction of the carboxyl groups are reviewed.FCA and FDCA are produced from furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural which are important platform chemicals in biomass conversions.Furan ring hydrogenation to tetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid(THFCA)and tetrahydrofuran-2,5-dicarboxylic acid(THFDCA)easily proceeds over Pd catalysts.Hydrogenolysis of one C–O bond in the furan ring produces 5-hydroxyvaleric acid(5-HVA)and 2-hydroxyadipic acid.2-Hydroxyvaleric acid is not produced in the reported systems.5-HVA can be produced as the lactone form(δ-valerolactone;DVL)or as the esters depending on the solvent.These reactions proceed over Pt catalysts with good yields(~70%)at optimized conditions.Hydrogenolysis of two C–O bonds in the furan ring produces valeric acid and adipic acid,the latter of which is a very important chemical in industry and its production from biomass is of high importance.Adipic acid from FDCA can be produced directly over Pt-MoO_(x) catalyst,indirectly via hydrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation as one-pot reaction using the combination of Pt and acid catalysts such as Pt/niobium oxide,or indirectly via two-step reaction composed of hydrogenation catalyzed by Pd and hydrodeoxygenation catalyzed by iodide ion in acidic conditions.Only the two-step method can give good yield of adipic acid at present.

文摘Two manganese(II) coordination polymers, namely, {[Mn(PIP)(BIBP)]·(BIBP)0.5}n(1) and {[Mn(PTA)(BIMBP)(H2O)]·H2O(0.69)}n(2)(H2PIP = 5-(4-pyridyl)-isophthalic acid, H2 PTA =6-(4-pyridyl)-terephthalic acid, BIBP = 4,4?-bis(imidazol-1-yl)biphenyl, and BIMBP =4,4?-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)biphenyl), have been synthesized by using the bifunctional pyrinde-benzene carboxylic acids and bis(imidazole) linkers as mixed ligands to react with Mn SO4,and further characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and PXRD. Compound 1 is in the triclicnic system, space group P1 with a = 10.1089(8), b = 13.1927(12), c = 14.0638(12)A, α = 69.437(2), β= 73.2890(10), γ = 78.5320(10)o, V = 1671.9(2) A^3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.449 g/cm^3, F(000) = 705,μ(MoK α) = 0.453 mm^-1, S = 1.053, R = 0.0491 and wR = 0.1367 for 5837 unique reflections(Rint =0.0208) with I 〉 2σ(I). Compound 2 belongs to the monoclicnic system, space group C2/c with a =15.199(3), b = 19.731(3), c = 21.537(5) ?, β = 105.228(3)o, V = 6232(2) A^3, Z = 8, Dc = 1.363g/cm^3, F(000) = 2648, μ(MoK α) = 0.475 mm^-1, S = 1.048, R = 0.0489 and wR = 0.1151 for 7414 unique reflections(Rint = 0.0425) with I 〉 2σ(I). Structural analyses reveal that complex 1 is a4-connected(44.62)-sql bilayer structure with binuclear [Mn2(COO)2] SBU, while complex 2 is a normally(3,5)-connected(42.67.8)(42.6)-3,5L2 monolayer. And the sheets interacted with the adjacent sheets through weak interactions, finally giving a stable three-dimensional(3D)supramolecule. Besides, the variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurement of complex1 was investigated.

文摘Nanometer calcium carbonate was modified with Frechet type polyether dendrons bearing a COOH group at thefocal point by a wet-coating technique in dichloromethane at room temperature. The interaction between CaCO;and thedendritic modifier was proven by IR and mass spectroscopy of the modified CaCO;after thorough extraction withdichloromethane. The amount of tightly bonded organic modifier was estimated by TGA. It was shown that the amount ofbonded molecules decreased with increasing generation number due to the larger number of branches. Compared tounmodified CaCO;, the modified CaCO;possess different dispersibility in water and in organic solvents.
