Abstract
The N-formylation reaction of amines with CO2 is a promising method to utilize CO2 for the production of high value-added chemicals. Herein, we developed an efficient process for integrating CO2 capture and morpholine formylation catalyzed by a N,P-ruthenium knitted aromatic polymers (KAPs-N/Ru/P) catalyst, producing the corresponding N-formylmorpholine in good yield and high selectivity under relatively mild reaction conditions. TON up to 4711 can be achieved for the formylation of morpholine with CO2 and H2, which represents the highest one for the reported heterogeneous Ru-based catalysts to date. The morpholine and CO2 could be activated in the presence of ionic liquids and N-donor ligand (BPY). Simultaneously, phosphine ligand (PPh3) also contributed to the activation of H2 and CO2 based on DFT calculation.
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.
