چکیده

Carbonylation gets a phase lift: The usual liquid-phase, high-pressure processes for carbonylating formaldehydes are avoided in a novel vapor-phase reaction. Using an acid zeolite (Faujasite) at near-atmospheric pressure dimethoxymethane (DMM; the dimethyl acetal of formaldehyde; see scheme) is carbonylated to produce methyl methoxyacetate (MMAc). This approach provides a new route to ethylene glycol under mild conditions.

Theoretical Study of Zeolite-Catalyzed Dimethoxymethane Carbonylation to Methyl Methoxyacetate

The gas-phase carbonylation of dimethoxymethane (DMM) to form methyl methoxyacetate (MMAc) can be catalyzed by acid zeolites. This reaction is a critical step in the synthesis of monoethylene glycol (MEG), a widely used chemical, from synthesis gas. The mechanism of DMM carbonylation occurring on H-MFI and H-FAU zeolites has been investigated using density functional theory. We find that the re...

An investigation into the mechanism and kinetics of dimethoxymethane carbonylation over FAU and MFI zeolites

In situ IR spectroscopy was used to observe the intermediates formed on zeolites FAU and MFI during the synthesis of methyl methoxyacetate (MMAc) via carbonylation of dimethoxymethane (DMM) and the disproportionation of DMM to dimethyl ether (DME) and methyl formate (MF). Both reactions are initiated by the reaction of DMM with the Brønsted acid protons of the zeolite to form methanol and metho...

Mechanistic investigations on dimethyl carbonate formation by oxidative carbonylation of methanol over a CuY zeolite: an operando SSITKA/DRIFTS/MS study.

The simultaneous combination of steady state isotopic transient kinetic analysis (SSITKA) with diffuse reflectance Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) and mass spectrometric (MS) analysis was applied to study the oxidative carbonylation of methanol (MeOH) to dimethyl carbonate (DMC) on a CuY zeolite catalyst prepared by incipient-wetness impregnation of commercial zeolite NH(4)-Y. The inter...

Reaction of functionalized anilines with dimethyl carbonate over NaY faujasite. 3. chemoselectivity toward mono-N-methylation.

In the presence of NaY faujasite, dimethyl carbonate (MeOCO(2)Me, DMC) is a highly chemoselective methylating agent of functionalized anilines such as aminophenols (1), aminobenzyl alcohols (2), aminobenzoic acids (3), and aminobenzamides (4). The reaction proceeds with the exclusive formation of N-methylanilines without any concurrent O-methylation or N-/O-methoxy carbonylation side processes....
