چکیده مقاله:

Vapor-phase methylation of toluene using methanol and its isopropylation with 2-propanol has been investigated ina down flow reactor under atmospheric conditions using N2 carrier over a series of surface modified andunmodified ZSM-5 (Si/Al= 60-170) loaded with H3PO4, differing in the external surface treatment of the zeolites.The feed molar ratios of toluene/methanol and toluene/2-propanol were varied over a wide range (8-0.125), andthe optimum feed ratio of toluene/alcohol was less than 0.5 in both cases. Space velocity employed in toluenemethylation reported as WHSV (toluene) = 1.2114, and the space velocity employed in toluene isopropylationreported as WHSV (toluene) = 0.8 III. The methylation reactions were carried out in the temperature range of 623-773 K, and the isopropylation reactions were carried out in the temperature range of 483-583 K. Atmosphericpressures was maintained in all runs. Catalysts containing 0-4.9 wt.% P were prepared using modified andunmodified ZSM-5 zeolites, and their catalytic performance for vapor-phase alkylation of toluene with methanoland 2-propanol were investigated. The optimum phosphorous content for methylation was 2.1 wt.% P which wasgreater than the optimum phosphorous loading for isopropylation (0.7 wt.% P)

EFFECT OF OPERATING CONDITIONS ON THE DEHYDRATION OF TOLUENE BY PERVAPORATION USING A POLYVINYL ALCOHOL MEMBRANE

The effects of operating parameters such as feed temperature and permeate-side pressure on the performance of a commercial PVA membrane in the dehydration of toluene by a pervaporation (PV) membrane system is studied in the present work. The results obtained indicate that increasing temperature in the range of 40 to 70 °C and reducing permeate pressure in the range of 1 to 10 mmHg increase memb...

Copper-catalyzed N-alkylation of indoles by N-tosylhydrazones

An efficient method for the direct N-alkylation of indoles via copper-catalyzed reductive cross coupling between N-tosylhydrazones and indole reagents has been developed. The reaction was performed in the presence of copper iodide and potassium hydroxide by utilization of tri(p-tolyl)phosphine as a ligand. A wide variety of N-alkylated indoles were obtained in moderate to good yields. The appli...

Friedel–Crafts alkylation properties of aluminosilica SBA-15 meso/macroporous monoliths and mesoporous powders

The catalytic activities of SBA-15 aluminosilica meso/macroporous monoliths (Si/Al = 72) and mesoporous powders (Si/Al = 70) have been investigated using batch Friedel–Crafts alkylation of single-ring aromatic compounds, including toluene, ethylbenzene, cumene, and styrene, with benzyl alcohol. The toluene alkylation activities of the meso/macroporous monolith catalysts were compared with nanop...

Copper-catalyzed direct alkylation of heteroarenes.

An efficient and broadly applicable process is reported for the direct alkylation of C-H bonds in heteroarenes, privileged scaffolds in many areas of science. This reaction is based on the copper-catalyzed addition of alkyl radicals generated from activated secondary and tertiary alkyl bromides to a wide range of arenes, including furans, thiophenes, pyrroles, and their benzo-fused derivatives,...

Toluene monooxygenase-catalyzed epoxidation of alkenes.

Several toluene monooxygenase-producing organisms were tested for their ability to oxidize linear alkenes and chloroalkenes three to eight carbons long. Each of the wild-type organisms degraded all of the alkenes that were tested. Epoxides were produced during the oxidation of butene, butadiene, and pentene but not hexene or octadiene. A strain of Escherichia coli expressing the cloned toluene-...
