This paper presents the first example of high-silica and siliceous zeolite synthesis in the urea/choline chloride mixture as a deep eutectic solvent (DES) using F– as the mineralizing agent. A urea/choline chloride mixture was previously used as solvent to prepare AlPO4-based microporous materials SIZ-2 and AlPO-CJ2. However, generating these materials depends on the formation of ammonium ion as a structure-directing agent (SDA) that is the side product of urea decomposition. In the present study, we show that several highly siliceous zeolites with targeted topologies (MFI, BEA, MEL, and MTN) can be purposely synthesized by adding SDAs of choice rather than relying on solvent decomposition. The Si atoms in zeolite Beta synthesized in a urea/choline chloride mixture exhibit exceptionally high local ordering as shown in a 29Si MAS NMR spectrum. The synthesis of ZSM-11 using eutectic solvents or ionic liquid has not been reported. The major challenge in ZSM-11 synthesis is the intergrown structure formed with ZSM-5 due to the high similarity in their topologies. The present work shows that preparation of pure ZSM-11 can be achieved in urea/choline chloride DES using either DPHMII or DECDMPI as SDA. Using a urea/choline chloride mixture rather than alcohol-based traditional nonaqueous solvents is the key for the success of preparing phase-pure ZSM-11 free of any MFI intergrowths. This is because some alcohols can serve as SDA for MFI. The use of urea/choline chloride based DES eliminates the potential templateing effect of solvent for MFI formation. For MTN zeolite, morphology may be controlled in urea/choline chloride by choosing different SDAs. The disadvantage of this system is the long reaction times.

AbstractAn effective method based on choline chloride (ChCl)-oxalic acid (Ox) deep eutectic solvent was proposed for the synthesis of 4-azaphenanthrene-3,10-dione, 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthene and tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyran derivatives. The eutectic mixture worked as both the solvent and acidic catalyst for conversion. The impacts of different variables, including the composition and volume of ChCl-Ox, and temperature, on reaction yield were studied for optimization. The crucial advantages of this process are simplicity of the experimental procedure, high yields, short reaction times, high recyclability, and the use of safe and inexpensive components.

Synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO) which was found to be effective catalyst for Friedel-Crafts benzoylation reaction in the presence of deep eutectic solvent (DES). The method is one of the most important intermediates for preparing fine chemicals in the field of pharmaceuticals, which is a tool for organic syntheses of aromatic ketones. ZnO precursor was prepared from Zn(CH3COO)2.2H2O and H2C2O4.2H2O, ZnO nanoparticles were characterized by using X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The benzoylation of aromatic compounds and benzoyl chloride using nanoparticles ZnO/ [CholineCl][Urea]2, under microwave irradiation afforded the desired products in high yields and short reaction times. The catalyst/solvent could be recycled several times without loss of efficient catalytic activity.

A series of pyrazole-based heteroaromatic compounds were synthesized by the reaction of 3-methyl-5-pyrazolone and aromatic aldehydes in Choline chloride/urea DES as a green solvent. This simple and green procedure has advantages such as easy operation, short reaction times, efficient yields, low cost and minimum use of hazardous solvents and catalysts. The structure of compounds was determined by IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectra, and the crystal structure of 4a was confirmed using X-ray crystallographic analysis. The optical properties of Pyrazole derivatives 4a-g have also been studied with UV/vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. All of these pyrazole-containing heteroaromatic compounds displayed maximum emission peak from 340 to 360 nm.

Herein, corn stover (CS) was pretreated by less corrosive lewis acid FeCl3 acidified solutions of neat and aqueous deep eutectic solvent (DES), aqueous ChCl and glycerol at 120 °C for 4 h with single FeCl3 pretreatment as control. It was unexpected that acidified solutions of both ChCl and glycerol were found to be more efficient at removing lignin and xylan, leading to higher enzymatic digestibility of pretreated CS than acidified DES. Comparatively, acidified ChCl solution exhibited better pretreatment performance than acidified glycerol solution. In addition, 20 wt% water in DES dramatically reduced the capability of DES for delignification and xylan removal and subsequent enzymatic cellulose saccharification of pretreated CS. Correlation analysis showed that enzymatic saccharification of pretreated CS was highly correlated to delignification and cellulose crystallinity, but lowly correlated to xylan removal. Recyclability experiments of different acidified pretreatment solutions showed progressive decrease in the pretreatment performance with increasing recycling runs. After four cycles, the smallest decrease in enzymatic cellulose conversion (22.07%) was observed from acidified neat DES pretreatment, while the largest decrease (43.80%) was from acidified ChCl pretreatment. Those findings would provide useful information for biomass processing with ChCl, glycerol and ChCl-glycerol DES.

In this study, the effect of lignin esterification with fatty acid chloride on the properties of lignin and lignin/poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composites was investigated. Lignocellulose (Pinus densiflora S. et Z.) was treated using a deep eutectic solvent (DES) with choline chloride (ChCl)/lactic acid (LA). From the DES-soluble fraction, DES-lignin (DL) was isolated by a regeneration process. Lignin esterification was conducted with palmitoyl chloride (PC). As the PC loading increased for DL esterification, the Mw of esterified DL (EDL) was increased, and the glass transition temperature (Tg) was decreased. In DL or EDL/PLA composite films, it was observed that EDL/PLA had cleaner and smoother morphological characteristics than DL/PLA. The addition of DL or EDL in a PLA matrix resulted in a deterioration of tensile properties as compared with neat PLA. The EDL/PLA composite film had a higher tensile strength and elastic modulus than the DL/PLA composite film. DL esterification decreased water absorption with lower water diffusion coefficients. The effect of lignin esterification on improving the compatibility of lignin and PLA was demonstrated. These results are expected to contribute to the development of high-strength lignin composites.
