Abstract
- The liquid phase acylation of 2-methylfuran with acetic anhydride over modified Hβ zeolite was first conducted in a continuous flow reactor. The deactivation of Hβ zeolites was attributed to strong adsorption of reactants or products and was verified by GC-MS and C MAS NMR. Deactivated zeolites can be regenerated to their original state by calcination. The acidic properties was adjusted by surface modification on Hβ, the maximum yield of 89.5 mol% and selectivity of 100 % were obtained over tartaric acid modified by Hβ. The deposition of tetraethoxysilane to silica on Hβ contributed to enhancing the catalytic stability. Combined with the results of NH-TPD and Py-FTIR, the amount of Broensted acids played a major role on catalytic activity. A close relationship between the catalytic stability and the ratio of the amount of strong to weak acids at 1:1 was highlighted here. The solvents' effect on the catalytic performances was examined, and 1,2-dichloroethane with moderate polarity exerted a positive effect on catalytic stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
