Single‐Atom Catalysis: Sustainable Synthesis of Bimetallic Single Atom Gold‐Based Catalysts with Enhanced Durability in Acetylene Hydrochlorination (Small 16/2021)

Identification of single-site gold catalysis in acetylene hydrochlorination.

There remains considerable debate over the active form of gold under operating conditions of a recently validated gold catalyst for acetylene hydrochlorination. We have performed an in situ x-ray absorption fine structure study of gold/carbon (Au/C) catalysts under acetylene hydrochlorination reaction conditions and show that highly active catalysts comprise single-site cationic Au entities who...

Enhancement of the Stability of Au-Cu/AC Acetylene Hydrochlorination Bimetallic Catalyst with Melamine Treated Support

This paper highlights the experimental and theoretical studies on the Melamine treated Active Carbon (MAC) support for an Au-Cu bimetallic catalyst in acetylene hydrochlorination reaction. Compared to the original Active Carbon (AC) loaded with the same amount of 0.1wt% Au and 1.0wt% Cu,  MAC supported catalyst(MACH), wherein Carbon/C6...

single-step synthesis of multi-component spirobarbiturates using ionic liquids and synthesis of substituted pyridine filled with catalysts supported on solid substrate

in this thesis, a better reaction conditions for the synthesis of spirobarbiturates catalyzed by task-specific ionic liquid (2-hydroxy-n-(2-hydroxyethyl)-n,n-dimethylethanaminium formate), calcium hypochlorite ca(ocl)2 or n-bromosuccinimide (nbs) in the presence of water at room temperature by ultrasonic technique is provided. the design and synthesis of spirocycles is a challenging task becaus...

Characterization of Au species in Au/C catalysts for the hydrochlorination reaction of acetylene

A set of Au/C catalysts for the gas phase hydrochlorination of acetylene to vinyl chloride monomer were prepared using a range of strong acids as impregnating solvents and varying the preparation drying temperature. The most active catalyst is the material prepared using aqua regia as solvent with an intermediate drying temperature of 140 C. The effects of the catalyst preparation parameters on...
