Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We studied heterogeneous catalytic methods for one-step reductive conversion of sustainable carbon sources (CO2, carboxylic acids) into chemicals. We developed three catalytic systems that convert carboxylic acids to esters, alcohols and alkanes, three catalytic systems that convert levulinic acid to pyrrolidones, valerolactone, and pentanoic acid and methods for methylation of amines under CO2+H2, amide hydrogenation, sulfoxide-sulfone hydrodeoxygenation. Each catalyst acted as a reusable heterogeneous catalyst and gave the target product in a high yield for a wide range of substrates. Mechanistic and structural studies showed a catalyst design guideline based on activation of C=O bond by Lewis acidic support and hydrogen dissociation on adjacent metal nanoparticles.
