Carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation is considered an important reaction in heterogeneous industrial catalysis and has been extensively studied. Pd supported on SiO2 aerogel catalysts exhibit good catalytic activity toward this reaction owing to their CO bond activation capability and thermal stability. Pd/SiO2 catalysts were investigated using carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation as a model reaction. The catalyst becomes active, and the conversion increases after the temperature reaches the ignition temperature (Tig). A normal hysteresis in carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation has been observed, where the catalysts continue to exhibit high catalytic activity (CO conversion remains at 100%) during the extinction even at temperatures lower than Tig. The catalyst was characterized using BET, TEM, XPS, TGA-DSC, and FTIR. In this work, the influence of pretreatment conditions and stability of the active sites on the catalytic activity and hysteresis is presented. The CO oxidation on the Pd/SiO2 catalyst has been attributed to the dissociative adsorption of molecular oxygen and the activation of the C-O bond, followed by diffusion of adsorbates at Tig to form CO2. Whereas, the hysteresis has been explained by the enhanced stability of the active site caused by thermal effects, pretreatment conditions, Pd-SiO2 support interaction, and PdO formation and decomposition.

Ru3(CO)12-catalyzed divergent ring-opening coupling reactions of a cyclopropenone with methyl acrylate (an electron-deficient alkene) are developed. Under an argon atmosphere, a decarbonylative linear codimer is obtained, while cyclopentenones are obtained under carbon monoxide (20 atm) without decarbonylation. While ruthenium complexes show no catalytic activity for the ring-opening cocyclization of cyclopropenones with ethylene (20 atm) or bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene (2-norbornene), rhodium complexes, especially [RhCl(η4-1,5-cod)]2, show high catalytic activity for the desired cocyclization reactions to give the corresponding cyclopentenones in high yields and selectivities. In addition, [RhCl(η4-1,5-cod)]2 realizes the catalytic ring-opening co­cyclization of cyclopropenones with internal alkynes to give the corresponding cyclopentadienones. In all these reactions, ruthena- or rhodacyclobutenones are considered to be key intermediates, generated by strain-driven oxidative addition of a cyclopropenone C–C bond to an ­active ruthenium or rhodium species.

In this study, a series of Co3O4-CeO2 nanocomposites with various Co3O4 loading were fabricated by the impregnation method using cobalt(II) acetate as the cobalt precursor for the treatment of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX). The as-prepared Co3O4-CeO2 nanocomposites were thoroughly characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brumauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), and temperature-programmed desorption (O2-TPD). The excellent reproduction of active oxygen species caused by the high dispersion of Co3O4 crystals on the CeO2 supports was established. In addition, the reduction peaks of Co3O4-CeO2 nanocomposites were found at much lower temperatures compared to pure CeO2, considering their unique redox property influencing on the high catalytic activity. Among the characterized materials, the 5.0 wt.% Co3O4 supported on CeO2 (5.0Co–Ce) was the best system for catalytic oxidation of xylene, along with excellent performances in the cases of benzene, ethylbenzene, and toluene. Its catalytic activity increased in the order: benzene < xylene < ethylbenzene < toluene . Furthermore, the addition of carbon monoxide (CO) as a coreactant permitted to improve the catalytic performances in such oxidations as well as the stability of as-prepared catalysts, even under humid conditions.

Environmental contextNorfloxacin is widely used as a human and veterinary medicine for its broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. It is chemically stable, rendering it difficult to remove from water using the traditional water and wastewater treatment techniques. We investigate the use of iron oxide catalysts for the degradation of norfloxacin in water prior to its release into the environment. AbstractThe catalytic activity of ordered mesoporous Fe2O3 (om-Fe2O3) on H2O2 oxidation of norfloxacin (NOR) under neutral pH conditions in water was investigated. Using non-ordered-mesoporous Fe2O3 as a reference (nom-Fe2O3), om-Fe2O3 with high specific surface area of 176.4m2g−1 and a uniform pore structure exhibited high catalytic activity in the decomposition of H2O2 as well as the degradation of NOR at neutral pH. Compared with nom-Fe2O3, om-Fe2O3 promoted the decomposition of H2O2 differently. The adsorption capacity of om-Fe2O3 for NOR was much higher than that of nom-Fe2O3. The adsorption efficiency of NOR on om-Fe2O3 accounted for 60.2–64.9% of the degradation efficiency in om-Fe2O3/H2O2. tert-Butanol (TBA), which is resistant to adsorption by om-Fe2O3, had no effect on the degradation of NOR by om-Fe2O3/H2O2. However, the presence of tromethamine (TMA), which was favourable to adsorption by om-Fe2O3, inhibited the degradation of NOR significantly. Based on the different effects of TBA and TMA on the degradation of NOR, it is proposed that the catalytic degradation of NOR may occur on the surface of om-Fe2O3. Hydroxyl radicals (·OH) generated may be bound on the surface of om-Fe2O3 without diffusing into aqueous solution. It is proposed that the adsorption of target organic pollutants must be considered when assessing the suitability of the om-Fe2O3/H2O2 process. The mechanism of om-Fe2O3 in promoting H2O2 decomposition into OH was also investigated.

AbstractHerein, we report a methodology that leads to the formation of Ru metallic sites, followed by the development and anchorage of Pt-Ru alloyed nanoparticles on the surface of Ordered Mesoporous Hollow Carbon Spheres (OMHCS). Along with the Ru sites, it is demonstrated that the functionalization promotes the formation of functional groups on the surface of the OMHCS. In a first stage, OMHCS are functionalized with the [(η6-C6H5OCH2CH2OH)RuCl2]2 (Ru-dim) and [(η6-C6H4CH(CH3)2CH3)RuCl2]2 (Ru-cym) organometallic compounds. Afterwards, Pt nanoparticles are dispersed by the microwave-assisted polyol method over the functionalized supports obtaining the low-metal content 5 wt. % Pt/OMHCSRu-dim and Pt/OMHCSRu-cym nanocatalysts. The degree of Ru alloyed is found to be around 35%. The low-Pt content Pt/OMHCSRu-cym and Pt/OMHCSRu-dim exhibit a higher catalytic activity for the Oxygen (OER) and the Hydrogen (HER) Evolution Reactions than the Pt/C benchmark and the Pt/OMHCS nanocatalysts. The overpotential for the OER at 10 mA cm-2 (ηOER) is 300 mV and 210 mV smaller at Pt/OMHCSRu-cym and Pt/OMHCSRu-dim compared to Pt/C, respectively. The corresponding values of the HER at -10 mA cm-2 (ηHER) are 14 and 18 mV smaller, respectively. The high catalytic activity of Pt/OMHCSRu-cym and Pt/OMHCSRu-dim has been attributed in part to the presence of Ru0 and RuO2 species from organometallic functionalization, and the modification of the d-valence band of Pt. Their high performance for the OER and the HER opens new lines of research for the design of nanocatalysts for alkaline electrochemical water splitting.
