Synthesis and characterization of tungstophosphoric acid-modified mesoporous sponge-like TUD-1 materials

Mesoporous sponge-like siliceous materials (TUD-1) were synthesized using TEOS (tetraethylorthosilicate) as a precursor of silica and TEA (triethanolamine) as a mesostructure-directing agent. Different TEOS/TEA molar ratios and hydrotreatment times were used, and their influence on the textural and morphological properties of the solids was evaluated. They were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction, and N2 adsorption/desorption isotherm analysis. By changing the TEOS/TEA molar ratio, micro-mesoporous and mesoporous (with a narrow or wide pore size distribution) materials were obtained. The increment of hydrotreatment times increased the average pore size of TUD-1 and significantly reduced the specific surface area. TEM images showed that the solids were formed by agglomerates of rather spherical particles whose size increased with the increment of the TEA amount used. The structure and morphology of TUD-1 solids modified with tungstophosphoric acid (TPA) were similar to those of the mesoporous silica used as support. Their diffraction patterns did not display any of the characteristic peaks of TPA or its more common hydrates, suggesting that TPA was well dispersed on the support as a noncrystalline phase. In addition, the characterization of all the solids impregnated with TPA by FT-IR and 31P NMR indicated the presence of undegraded [PW12O40]3− and [H3−XPW12O40]X− species interacting electrostatically with the ≡Si–OH2+ groups, and by potentiometric titration it was estimated that the solids presented very strong acid sites. The TUD-1 solids modified with TPA gave excellent yield in the solvent-free synthesis of 2,4,5-triphenyl-1H-imidazole, without formation of by-products resulting from competitive reactions or decomposition products. In summary, they are good candidates to be used in multicomponent reactions catalyzed by acids.Centro de Investigación y Desarrollo en Ciencias Aplicada

Transition metal-modified polyoxometalates supported on carbon as catalyst in 2-(methylthio)-benzothiazole sulfoxidation

Polyoxometalates with lacunary Keggin structure modified with transition metal ions [PW₁₁O₃₉ M(H₂O)]⁵⁻, where M= Ni²⁺, Co²⁺,, Cu²⁺, or Zn²⁺,, were synthesized and supported on activated carbon to obtain the PW11MC catalysts. Using FT-IR and DTA-TGA it was concluded that the [PW11O₃₉M(H₂O)]⁵⁻ species are interacting with the functional groups of the support, and that thermal treatment leads to the loss of the coordinatively bonded water molecules without any noticeable anion degradation. The activity and selectivity of the catalysts in the sulfoxidation reaction of 2-(methylthio)-benzothiazole, an emerging environmental pollutant, were evaluated. The reaction was carried out in acetonitrile as solvent using H₂O₂ 35% p/v as a clean oxidant. The conversion values decreased in the following order: PW11NiC > PW11CuC > PW11CoC > PW11ZnC, with selectivity to sulfoxide higher than 69%. The catalyst could be reused without appreciable loss of the catalytic activity at least three times. The materials were found to be efficient and recyclable catalysts for 2-(methylthio)-benzothiazole sulfoxidation in order to obtain a more biodegradable product than the corresponding substrate.Centro de Investigación y Desarrollo en Ciencias Aplicada

Novel catalyst based on mono- and di-vanadium substituted Keggin polyoxometalate incorporated in poly(acrylic acid-co-acrylamide) polymer for the oxidation of sulfides

Composite materials based on [PVxW12-xO40](3+x)− with x = 1 or 2 (PVW and PV2W respectively), included in poly(acrylic acid-co-acrylamide) gel (PAACA), were synthesized. The samples were characterized by different techniques such as FT-IR, 31P MAS-NMR, 51V-NMR, XRD, DTA-TGA, UV–vis DRS, and the acidic properties were estimated by means of potentiometric titration with n-butylamine. Samples containing 10, 20 and 30% (w/w) of polyoxotungstovanadate (POTV) were prepared by inclusion of the POTV in the polymer during its synthesis. According to Fourier transform infra-red and magic angle spinning-nuclear magnetic resonance studies, the predominat anion present in the samples is [PVxW12-xO40](3+x)−, and there is no evidence of its decomposition during the synthesis of hybrid materials and the drying step. According to XRD results, these anions are greatly dispersed in the PAACA or present as amorphous phases. UV–vis DRS data reveal that the samples synthesized using POTV with two vanadium atoms (PAACA-PV2W) exhibit lower values of absorption edge energy than those prepared using PVW (PAACA-PVW), which correlates with a higher oxidizing capacity. The potentiometric titration shows strong acid sites of the hybrid materials, and their number increases with the number of vanadium atoms and with the amount of POTV incorporated in the PAACA grid. The hybrid materials prepared by inclusion of POTV during the polymer synthesis exhibit appropriate physicochemical features to catalyze the oxidation of diphenyl sulfide (DPS) to its sulfone employing acetonitrile as solvent H2O2 as a green oxidant. The samples with 30% w/w of POVT, which show higher catalytic performance, are suitable for the DPS oxidation and can be reused without remarkable drop of their catalytic activity. Furthermore, they show high activity as a catalyst in the oxidation reaction of 4,4´-diamino diphenyl sulfide to the corresponding sulfone (dapsone) used for malaria treatment.Fil: Frenzel, Romina Alejandra.

Synthesis and characterization of nanoparticulate silica with organized multimodal porous structure impregnated with 12-phosphotungstic acid for its use in heterogeneous catalysis

Mesoporous silica (MESSI) nanoparticles with ordered mesoporous frameworks were successfully obtained using the triblock copolymer P123 as the mesoporous template and agar as micropore former. The agar/TEOS ratio influences the specific surface area (SBET) and the micropore area (SMIC). The SBET values increase with the increment of the agar/TEOS ratio used in the synthesis. SAXS (small angle X-ray scattering) patterns and TEM (transmission electron microscopy) images of MESSI samples reveal the presence of a 2D hexagonal mesopore array. The study of all the materials impregnated with PTA by 31P NMR and FT-IR confirmed the existence of undegraded [H3-XPW12O40](3−X)− and [PW12O40]3− anions interacting with the ≡Si-OH2 + groups. The potentiometric titration results show that the MESSI-2PTA solids present very strong acid sites and that both the acid strength and the number of sites increase with the increment of the PTA amount in the samples. The performance of MESSI-2PTA materials as catalysts in the solvent-free synthesis of a series of substituted 3H-1,5-benzodiazepines was evaluated. The yields achieved were high, without formation of by-products resulting from competitive reactions or decomposition products, so the prepared materials are highly selective and reusable catalysts.Fil: Morales, María Dolores.

Visible-light-absorbing mesoporous TiO2 modified with tungstosilicic acid as photocatalyst in the photodegradation of 4-chlorophenol

Visible-light-absorbing materials based on TiO2 modified with tungstosilicic acid (TSA; H4SiW12O40) were prepared using titanium isopropoxide as precursor and urea as a low-cost pore-forming agent. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements show evidence about the presence of anatase TiO2 in all samples and shifting of the anatase–rutile transition temperature toward temperatures higher than 600 °C. The FT-IR and FT-Raman studies showed that the main heteropolyoxometallate species present in the composites annealed up to 500 °C is the [SiW12O40]4− anion, which exhibited a strong interaction with TiO2 surface probably due to the formation of TSA–TiO2 complexes that should be responsible for its visible light absorption. The photocatalytic activity of these materials was tested using 4-chlorophenol as model pollutant. Results revealed that photocatalytic activity mainly depends on the TSA amount and the annealing temperature. The amount of degraded 4-CP increased with the increment of TSA content, with the one calcined at 600 °C being more active. Finally, it was found that these photocatalysts can be reused at least three times without an important decrease in the degradation and mineralization degrees.Fil: Rengifo Herrera, Julian Andres.
