Regulating the acid property of zeolite is an effective strategy to improve dehydration of intermediate alcohol, which is the rate-determining step in hydrodeoxygenation of lignin-based phenolic compounds. Herein, a commercial Hβ (SiO2/Al2O3 = 25) was modified by phosphoric acid, and evaluated in the catalytic performance of guaiacol to cyclohexane, combined with Ni/SiO2 prepared by the ammonia evaporation hydrothermal (AEH) method. Incorporating a small amount of phosphorus had little impact on the morphology, texture properties of Hβ, but led to dramatic variations in acid property, including the amount of acid sites and the ratio of Brønsted acid sites to Lewis acid sites, as confirmed by NH3-TPD, Py-IR, FT-IR and 27Al MAS NMR. Phosphorus modification on Hβ could effectively balance competitive adsorption of guaiacol on Lewis acid sites and intermediate alcohol dehydration on Brønsted acid sites, and then enhanced the catalytic performance of guaiacol hydrodeoxygenation to cyclohexane. By comparison, Hβ containing 2 wt.% phosphorus reached the highest activity and cyclohexane selectivity.

AbstractThe acidity of Ni2+- and Co2+-exchanged montmorillonite has been probed using the diagnostic bases n-butylamine, cyclohexylamine and pyridine. Derivative thermograms for the desorption of pyridine from Ni2+- and Co2+-exchanged montmorillonite exhibited strong maxima at 40°, 90° and 360°C together with a weak maximum near 170°C The desorption maximum at 360°C is usually attributed to desorption of base from Bronsted acid sites. However, IR spectra of pyridine adsorbed on Ni2+- and Co2+-exchanged montmorillonite, at 250°C were dominated by intense bands near 1450 and 1607 cm−1 which are diagnostic of Lewis-bound pyridine. Consequently, the desorption maximum at 360°C must, in this instance, be attributed to desorption of pyridine from Lewis acid centres. Other bases, including cyclohexylamine and butylamine, also desorb at temperatures which have previously been attributed to the desorption of protonated base. Ni2+- and Co2+-exchanged clay contained predominatly Lewis acid or electron accepting sites, which is in marked contrast to the behaviour of trivalent cation exchanged clays.

Porous clay heterostructures (PCH) was derived from natural kaolin through intercalation with cationic potato starch as the template. Leaching of PCH was performed in concentrated acid solutions consisting of HCl and H2SO4. Phosphotungstic acid (HPW) supported on PCH and modified PCH were synthesized by wet impregnation method. The resulting PCH showed remarkable increase in surface area starting from 15 m2g–1 for the parent kaolin to maximium value of 725 m2g–1 for PCH. Acidity studies by pyridine adsorption and FTIR spectra showed that both natural kaolin and PCH possessed strong Lewis acid sites. In contrast, the surface acidity of HPW supported on PCH was significantly enhanced and comprising mainly Brönsted acid sites. The correlation between the Brönsted to Lewis acid ratios (B/L) and either conversion or selectivity of the catalysts has been studied in Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole. The PCH/30HPW catalyst with the highest number of Brönsted acid sites showed excellent catalytic activity giving 86% conversion of anisole and high selectivity of 95% toward p-methoxypropiophenone.
