Modified Janus silica-based sheets stable stimulus-responsive Pickering emulsion: An excellent recycling platform for tandem reaction
To accommodate the advancement of green chemistry and further enhance hydrogen utilization efficiency and organic compound conversion in reactions, a smart Pickering emulsion stabilized by modified Janus silica particles was successfully prepared for the tandem reaction of ammonia borane hydrolysis and organic hydrogenation reduction. The emulsion has been confirmed to possess high stability and rapid stimulus responsiveness. The high stability and large oil-water interface area of Pickering emulsions, along with their low energy demulsification method, provide an excellent reaction platform and catalyst in situ recovery strategy for tandem reactions. Moreover, the anisotropy of Janus particles facilitates the progression of tandem reactions, mitigating the waste associated with "sacrifice" mechanisms and averting hydrogen loss. Experimental results demonstrate that even when the molar amount of hydrogen released from ammonia borane is comparable to that of organic compounds, organic compounds still achieve a conversion rate of 99 %, with a hydrogen utilization efficiency 3–4 times higher than that of conventional two-phase systems. By simply adjusting the pH, the catalyst can be recovered in situ for the next cycle. Even after 5 cycles, a high conversion rate of organic compounds is maintained.
