Abstract

Herein, a series of Sn-based catalysts supported on SBA-15 with temperature responsive ability to in situ construct acidic and basic sites are reported for efficient conversion of biomass-derived sugars into ethyl lactate (EL). Based on the investigation on the effects of the molar ratio of Cl/OH in Sn(OH)_xCl_2-x and the support types, it is found that Sn(OH)_0.5Cl_1.5@SBA-15 is an excellent catalyst in catalytic conversion of various sugars to EL, achieving a maximum EL yield of 68.1 % from sucrose. The in situ generated basic SnO sites play important roles in accelerating the retro-aldol condensation reaction, while the concomitantly released acidic sites (Sn^2 +, SnCl⁺ and H⁺) could catalyze the reactions of hydrolysis, isomerization, intermolecular rearrangement and esterification to EL. Benefiting from the temperature responsive effect, not only can the reaction pathways be regulated toward high EL selectivity, but also the catalyst can be recycled easily. This research paves an avenue for exploring efficient catalysts for biomass valorization.

期刊介绍： Applied Catalysis A: General publishes original papers on all aspects of catalysis of basic and practical interest to chemical scientists in both industrial and academic fields, with an emphasis onnew understanding of catalysts and catalytic reactions, new catalytic materials, new techniques, and new processes, especially those that have potential practical implications. Papers that report results of a thorough study or optimization of systems or processes that are well understood, widely studied, or minor variations of known ones are discouraged. Authors should include statements in a separate section "Justification for Publication" of how the manuscript fits the scope of the journal in the cover letter to the editors. Submissions without such justification will be rejected without review.
