Abstract
- Considering the disadvantages of Cu-based catalyst for acetylene hydrochlorination, such as poor dispersion, severe carbon deposition and insufficient active sites, supported Cu-complex catalysts were synthesized by using phosphine-oxide organic compounds as ligands. A local active domain was successfully constructed based on the complexation of Cu atom to heteroatomic structure in meticulously selected ligands, in which the phenyl group acts as an electron donor to change the CuCl 2 active site electronic structure. The density functional theory calculation proved the existence of a strong interaction between triphenylphosphine oxide and CuCl 2 , and synchronously, electrons on the benzene ring were transferred to the Cl atom in CuCl 2 , stabilizing the Cu species. This superior activity may be attributed to the heightened adsorption of HCl and weakened C 2 H 2 and vinyl chloride adsorption by the constructed local active domain, which impedes the carbon deposition that promotes the continuous exposure of active sites. Under the reaction conditions: T = 180 ℃, GHSV C2H2 = 180 h−1 and V HCl /V C2H2 = 1.2, the C 2 H 2 conversion of 15%Cu7%TPPO/AC reaches 88%, which was over 30% higher than 15%Cu/AC catalyst. The significantly improved activity and stability of the proposed catalyst provides a reference for green and sustainable production of vinyl chloride. [Display omitted] • Complexation of TPPO with CuCl 2 establishes a locally active domain catalyst. • 15%Cu7%TPPO/AC catalyst improves the performance over 30% than 15%Cu/AC catalyst. • Significantly improved stability endows the catalyst a bright application prospect. • The electrons transfer from the benzene ring to the Cl atom in CuCl 2.
