Conversion of methane to methanol on copper-containing small-pore zeolites and zeotypes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This communication reports the discovery of several small-pore Cu-zeolites and zeotypes that produce methanol from methane and water vapor, and produce more methanol per copper atom than Cu-ZSM-5 and Cu-mordenite. The new materials include Cu-SSZ-13, Cu-SSZ-16, Cu-SSZ-39, and Cu-SAPO-34.

Catalytic Oxidation of Methane into Methanol over Copper-Exchanged Zeolites with Oxygen at Low Temperature
The direct catalytic conversion of methane to liquid oxygenated compounds, such as methanol or dimethyl ether, at low temperature using molecular oxygen is a grand challenge in C-H activation that has never been met with synthetic, heterogeneous catalysts. We report the first demonstration of direct, catalytic oxidation of methane into methanol with molecular oxygen over copper-exchanged zeolit...
متن کاملSingle-site trinuclear copper oxygen clusters in mordenite for selective conversion of methane to methanol
Copper-exchanged zeolites with mordenite structure mimic the nuclearity and reactivity of active sites in particulate methane monooxygenase, which are enzymes able to selectively oxidize methane to methanol. Here we show that the mordenite micropores provide a perfect confined environment for the highly selective stabilization of trinuclear copper-oxo clusters that exhibit a high reactivity tow...
متن کاملBis(μ-oxo) versus mono(μ-oxo)dicopper cores in a zeolite for converting methane to methanol: an in situ XAS and DFT investigation.
Dicopper species have been identified as the active sites in converting methane to methanol in Cu-zeolites. To understand the formation of these copper cores in mordenite, we used in situ time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy during heat treatment. Significant dehydration enabled the reduction of the copper cores, after which molecular oxygen was cleaved. The activated oxygen bridged two ...
متن کاملInvestigation of Methanol Reaction Chemistry on H-ZSM-5 and -11
In order to gain a better understanding of the chemistry of methanl-to-hydro-carbon conversion, it is necessary to determine the nature of the primary reaction products. Experiments carried out in this work on H-ZSM-11, using a continuous flow reactor linked to an on-line gas chromatograph demonstrated that ethylene and methane are the primary reaction products. The results obtained using s...
متن کاملMethane partial oxidation in iron zeolites: theory versus experiment
The conversion of methane to methanol over zeolitic a-oxygen sites has been demonstrated using Fe-ZSM-5. To discriminate between monoand poly-nuclear active sites, we prepared the [Fe]-ZEO with iron in the ZEOlite lattice via direct synthesis and Fex-ZEO, by dispersion of x wt.% iron on the ZEOlite. Shape-selective formation of nano-clusters of iron oxides with various sizes is realized inside ...
