A Nanospherical Mesoporous Ruthenium-Containing Polymer as a Guaiacol Hydrogenation Catalyst

详细

A hybrid catalyst is synthesized using ruthenium nanoparticles deposited on a nanospherical mesoporous polymer. Catalytic properties are studied in guaiacol hydrogenation at a temperature of 200–250°С and a hydrogen pressure of 5.0 MPa. Effect of solvent and catalytic additives on the reaction is investigated. It is shown that the synthesized catalyst exhibits the highest activity in guaiacol hydrodeoxygenation in the two-phase system water/n-dodecane and when the reaction is carried out in the presence of scandium triflate.
