Regularly spaced MWW nanosheets combined with single-unit-cell thickness and optimized Al species distribution are highly effective for the alkylation between benzene with 1-dodecene, high conversion of 1-dodecene (ca. 85 %) and selectivity of 2-LAB (ca. 80 %) can be obtained. Detailed studies of this MWW nanaosheets system reveal that ultra-thin MWW nanosheets with ordered arrangement can expose more accessible Brønsted acid sites (ca. ~89 %), and specially place framework Al species on the T2 sites (ca. ~13 %), in which the alkylation mainly occurred under the catalysis of accessible Brønsted acid sites. Besides, the desired 2-LAB is produced on the unique 12-MR hemicavities with solid binding energy and perfect steric configuration. As a proof-of-concept study, we integrate the highly exposed Brønsted acid sites and unrivalled shape-selectivity in the regularly spaced MWW nanosheets system with well characterized acid sites accessibility and pore adaptability, leading to the excellent catalytic performance.

Ru/UiO-66 modified with –SO3H groups shows good acidic catalytic performance while also showing hydrogenation activity towards CO bonds, thus improving the overall transformation of EL to GVL due to the presence of strong Brønsted acid sites.

The aim of the present paper is to study the speciation and the role of different active site types (copper species and Brønsted acid sites) in the direct synthesis of furan from furfural catalyzed by copper-exchanged FAU31 zeolite. Four series of samples were prepared by using different conditions of post-synthesis treatment, which exhibit none, one or two types of active sites. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, low-temperature sorption of nitrogen, SEM, H2-TPR, NMR and by means of IR spectroscopy with ammonia and CO sorption as probe molecules to assess the types of active sites. All catalyst underwent catalytic tests. The performed experiments allowed to propose the relation between the kind of active centers (Cu or Brønsted acid sites) and the type of detected products (2-metylfuran and furan) obtained in the studied reaction. It was found that the production of 2-methylfuran (in trace amounts) is determined by the presence of the redox-type centers, while the protonic acid sites are mainly responsible for the furan production and catalytic activity in the whole temperature range. All studied catalysts revealed very high susceptibility to coking due to polymerization of furfural.
