Hollow Mesoporous Organosilica Spheres Encapsulating PdAg Nanoparticles and Poly(Ethyleneimine) as Reusable Catalysts for CO2 Hydrogenation to Formate
journal contribution
posted on 2020-05-21, 17:37 authored by Yasutaka Kuwahara, Yuki Fujie, Takashi Mihogi, Hiromi YamashitaCO2 hydrogenation to formic acid, a renewable hydrogen
storage compound, has been regarded as a key reaction to realize hydrogen
energy cycles. However, the development of robust heterogeneous catalysts
with high activity and stability has been a challenge. We herein report
a synthesis of hollow nanostructured composite consisting of PdAg
nanoparticles (NPs) and aminopolymers, poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI),
confined in hollow mesoporous organosilica spheres (HMOSs), which
act as an efficient and stable heterogeneous catalyst for hydrogenation
of CO2 to formate. The catalyst exhibits high formate yield
with a turnover number (TON) of over 2700 and 13 700 for 22
and 110 h, respectively, under mild reaction conditions (total 2.0
MPa, 100 °C), which outperforms the conventional supported Pd
catalysts because of the cooperative action of PEI and PdAg NPs confined
in a nanospace to directly capture, activate, and hydrogenate the
CO2 molecule. The catalyst is reusable over multiple cycles
with high activity because of the protective effect and alkali-tolerant
property of HMOSs. This study offers a strategy for the design and
development of an efficient and stable heterogeneous catalyst for
CO2 conversion.
