以聚甲基氢硅氧烷为硅源,在反相微乳液体系中刺备了新型疏水性催化剂Me/PMHS(Me为Co,Mn,Cu和Fe)。该催化剂在催化乙苯选择氧化反应中显示出较高的活性:在393K,1.0MPa氧气,以Co/PMHS为催化剂,无溶剂条件下反应10h,转化率达52.0%,苯乙酮选择性达84.8%。本研究采用红外光谱、质谱、接触角测定仪对催化剂的结构、表面状态等进行了表征,结果表明,催化剂表面的疏水性有利于反应物乙苯的吸附和产物的脱附,从而提高催化剂催化乙苯选择氧化的活性。
The hydrophobic catalysts Me/PMHS ( Me includes Co, Mn, Cu and Fe ) were prepared with polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) in the reverse micro emulsion system. These materials exhibited excellent catalytic activity for selective oxidation of ethylbenzene to acetophenone. Under 1.0 MPa 02 at 393 K for 10 h over Co/PMHS catalyst, the conversion of ethylbenzene reached 52.0 % with the selectivity of acetophenone 84.8%. These catalysts were well characterized with IR, MS and contact angle measurement. It is concluded that the hydrophobic surface of cobalt oxide play a key role in facilitating ethylbenezne adsorption and acetophenone desorption.
