Among potential feedstocks, 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) stands out for its potential to be converted to higher-value polymeric materials such as polyethylene furandicarboxylate (PEF), a bio-based plastic alternative. In this study, the sustainable, electrocatalytic oxidation of stable furan molecule 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (BHMF) to FDCA is investigated using a variety of TEMPO derivative electrocatalysts in a mediated electrosynthetic reaction. Three TEMPO catalysts (acetamido-TEMPO, methoxy-TEMPO, and TEMPO) facilitate full conversion to FDCA in basic conditions with &gt;90% yield and &gt;100% Faradaic efficiency. The remaining three TEMPO catalysts (hydroxy-TEMPO, oxo-TEMPO, and amino-TEMPO) all perform intermediate oxidation of BHMF in basic conditions but do not facilitate full conversion to FDCA. On the basis of pH studies completed on all TEMPO derivatives to assess their electrochemical reversibility and response to substrate, pH and reversibility play significant roles in the catalytic ability of each catalyst, which directly influences catalyst turnover and product formation. More broadly, this study also highlights the importance of an effective and rapid electroanalytical workflow in mediated electrosynthetic reactions, demonstrating how voltammetric catalyst screening can serve as a useful tool for predicting the reactivity and efficacy of a catalyst–substrate electrochemical system.</p>","PeriodicalId":100230,"journal":{"name":"Chem & Bio Engineering","volume":"1 5","pages":"427–438"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.1021/cbe.4c00034","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141378847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is also an important raw material for producing lithium-ion battery adhesives. The industrial method for producing dichloroethylene involves a saponification reaction between trichloroethane and sodium hydroxide, which can lead to high environmental pollution. The 1,1,2-TCE (1,1,2-trichloroethane) catalytic cracking method has been widely studied due to its environmentally friendly potential to replace the saponification method. However, the low performance and stability of the catalysts have hindered the further development. The main reason is the lack of research on the intermediate processes of catalytic cracking. In this paper, in situ FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) and mass spectrometry combined technology was innovatively adopted to study the intermediate process of catalytic cracking of 1,1,2-TCE. In situ FTIR was used to analyze the generation of intermediate products, and online mass spectrometry was used to analyze the composition of exhaust gas. The formation of saturated steam from inert gas bubbling reactants in an in situ reaction pool could be used to investigate the microscopic reaction behavior of reactants on the catalyst surface in a macroscopic time system. The results indicated that 1,1,2-TCE produced residual products such as chloroacetylene and vinyl chloride during the dehydrochloride process. When 0.6 Cs/Al₂O₃ (activated alumina loaded with cesium chloride) was used as the catalyst, the dehydrochlorination of 1,1,2-TCE produced more chloroacetylene, reaching 4.62% at 533 K. When 0.6 Ba/Al₂O₃ (activated alumina loaded with barium chloride) was used as the catalyst, the dehydrochlorination of 1,1,2-TCE produced more vinyl chloride, reaching 6.54% at 533 K. Under the catalysis of 0.6 Cs/Al₂O₃, the initial cracking temperature of 1,1,2-TCE was 405 K, while under the catalysis of 0.6 Ba/Al₂O₃, the initial cracking temperature of 1,1,2-TCE was 450 K. The results revealed real-time changes in reactants and products during the reaction process, which was of great significance for catalyst screening, process condition selection, and research on the reaction mechanism.</p>","PeriodicalId":100230,"journal":{"name":"Chem & Bio Engineering","volume":"1 11","pages":"934–939 934–939"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.1021/cbe.4c00074","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143127371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) is a typical representative example of shape-morphing materials. The emergence of 4D printing technology can effectively simplify the preparation process of shape-morphing LCEs, by changing the printing material compositions and printing conditions, enabling precise control and macroscopic design of the shape-morphing modes.

However, the substrate promiscuity of ISY could result in a deviation of flux toward off-target routes. In this work, the substrate preference (SP, the ratio of activity for 8-oxogeranial to geranial) of ISY for nepetalactol was improved by directed evolution. First, the strategy of focused polarity-steric mutagenesis scanning (FPSMS) was performed to construct a small mutant library with <i>Nm</i>ISY2 from <i>Nepeta mussinii</i> as an object. Four amino acid residues with varying polarity and steric hindrance, including alanine, aspartic acid, serine, and arginine, were incorporated to scan hot spots.
