摘要: 通過共沉淀和原位煅燒轉化方法, 將Pd摻雜δ-MnO2前驅體煅燒后制備得到Pd摻雜α-MnO2納米棒催化材料.通過氮氣物理吸附、X射線衍射、透射電子顯微鏡、掃描電子顯微鏡、熱重分析、X射線光電子能譜等技術對催化材料進行了表征.掃描電鏡和透射電鏡結果顯示, α-MnO2納米棒表面沒有明顯的Pd納米顆粒, 表明Pd可能摻雜到α-MnO2晶格中.純α-MnO2的還原溫度在390℃左右, 但Pd摻雜可以極大地促進α-MnO2還原, 還原溫度可低至約200℃左右.研究了所制備催化劑在無溶劑條件下對于以分子氧為氧化劑選擇性催化氧化苯甲醇為苯甲醛的催化性能.結果表明: 在無溶劑及用純氧氣為氧化劑條件下, Pd摻雜α-MnO2納米棒對苯甲醇氧化顯示出增強的催化活性; 所摻雜的氧化態Pd物質可增強催化材料中的氧遷移率; 在這些Pd摻雜α-MnO2催化材料中, 當以Pd (3%, 質量分數) -MnO2為催化劑時, 在110℃反應4 h后, 苯甲醇的轉化率為39%, 遠高于同條件下以純α-MnO2為催化劑時18. 3%的苯甲醇轉化率.Abstract: Liquid-phase selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde is one of the most important processes in both laboratory and chemical industry processes due to the remarkable values of benzaldehyde in the production of flavours, fragrances, and biologically active compounds. In the traditional processes for selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol using a stoichiometric or excessive amount of toxic and expensive inorganic oxidants, such as ammonium permanganate in aqueous acidic medium, a large amount of toxic waste is produced. A few studies on the benzyl alcohol-to-benzaldehyde oxidation by environmentally clean oxidants (O2 or H2O2) in the presence of organic solvents (e. g., toluene, p-xylene, and trifuorotoluene) have been reported; however, the usage of organic solvent is neither economical nor environmental friendly. Even though the solvent-free oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde using tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant has been reported, the co-product of tert-butanol from the consumption of TBHP will be left in the reaction solution, necessitating further separation. Therefore, various heterogeneous catalysts have been developed for solvent-free selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol using flowing air or oxygen; however, in most of these systems, the reaction temperature is still high (> 130 ℃) and/or conversion/selectivity is still low. Thus, the development of efficient heterogeneous catalysts for the solvent-free se-lective oxidation of benzyl alcohol with high selectivity and yield using molecular oxygen from air as the oxidant at low temperature is needed. In this study, Pd-doped α-MnO2 nanorods were prepared from Pd-doped δ-MnO2 precursors via a co-precipitation and in situ calcination transformation method. These catalysts were extensively characterized by various techniques, such as N2 adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The SEM and TEM results indicate that there are no obvious Pd nanoparticles on the surface of α-MnO2 nanorods, signifying the possible doping of Pd into the lattice of α-MnO2. The reduction temperature of pureα-MnO2 is around 390 ℃, while the doped Pd could greatly promote α-MnO2 reduction to lower temperatures at around 200 ℃. The applications of Pd-doped α-MnO2 nanorods as catalysts for selective aerobic oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde under solventfree conditions with molecular oxygen were investigated. As compared with pure α-MnO2, the Pd-doped α-MnO2 nanorods show enhanced catalytic activity for selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol under solvent-free conditions with O2, which can be attributed to the beneficial presence of oxidized palladium species and enhanced oxygen mobility resulting from the doping Pd species. In these Pddoped α-MnO2 nanorods, when Pd (3%) -MnO2 was used as catalyst, a 39% conversion of benzyl alcohol was achieved. It is much higher than the 18. 3% conversion when pure α-MnO2 used as catalyst at 110 ℃ and reaction time of 4 h.
