The catalytic production of lactic acid from carbohydrates was considered a green way to efficiently utilize renewable biomass resources. In this study, an easy post-synthesis method was used to prepare a Sn-Beta catalyst for the production of lactic acid from glucose at 180 °C, 2 MPa, and 30 min. With optimized reaction time, temperature, pressure, and the ratio of raw material to catalyst, the yield of lactic acid reached an astonishingly high level of 76.0%. In addition, the catalyst characterizations were performed in-depth, revealing the intrinsic relationship between catalyst performance and structure, proving that the 2 wt% Sn was uniformly dispersed in the skeleton of Beta zeolite, which significantly increased the density of Lewis acid. Thus, the enhanced isomerization and retro-aldol condensation processes over the Lewis acid sites led to the high yield of lactic acid. This catalytic system kept stable after five cycles at mild conditions, showing high potential for industrial biomass utilization.

Glycolic acid finds extensive applications in the production of biodegradable polymers, pharmaceuticals, and fine chemicals. In this study, a Pt catalyst supported on the Sn-Beta zeolite (Pt/Sn-Beta) was developed to achieve the efficient and highly selective catalytic oxidation of ethylene glycol with molecular oxygen to prepare glycolic acid at near-room temperature (30 °C). Characterization results, including XRD, TEM, XPS, FT-IR, and O2-TPD, revealed that the relatively uniform dispersion of Pt particles, the optimal density of Lewis and Brønsted acid sites in the catalyst, and the synergistic interaction between Sn and Pt sites might be key factors contributing to the excellent catalytic performance of the Pt/Sn-Beta catalyst. By optimizing the reaction conditions, a 90% conversion of ethylene glycol and an 81% selectivity of glycolic acid were obtained. Furthermore, Pt/Sn-Beta exhibited excellent stability, with no significant decrease in catalytic performance after six repeated uses.

BACKGROUND Fast pyrolysis of lignocellulosics has provided an abundant sugar source for production of value-added chemicals, and levoglucosan is the most representative sugar in pyrolysis liquid (bio oil). This paper explored the potential for producing methyl lactate from levoglucosan by employing the mixed catalysts of zeolite tin beta (Sn-Beta) and zeolite hydrogen beta (H-Beta). RESULTS Under the optimal conditions (at 200 °C and mixed catalysts with H-Beta:Sn-Beta ratio of 1:5), the yield of methyl lactate obtained from levoglucosan conversion was as high as 35%. And the yield was comparable to that of methyl lactate obtained from glucose conversion under the similar conditions (at 200 °C and pure Sn-Beta). In order to investigate the reason, a contrasting experiment with glucose as substrate also was carried out with the mixed catalysts. The results indicated that during the levoglucosan conversion process, ‘the methanolysis of levoglucosan’ was likely to compete with ‘the dehydration of glucose’ for the Brønsted acid sites of H-Beta. In addition, the catalytic functions of H-Beta and Sn-Beta, and the reaction pathway were deeply investigated through tracking and comparing the conversion of levoglucosan over mixed H-Beta/Sn-Beta and over pure Sn-Beta catalysts, respectively. CONCLUSION The appropriately lower ratio of H-Beta:Sn-Beta and relatively higher temperature were favorable for the reaction. H-Beta containing Brønsted acid could remarkably accelerate the conversion of levoglucosan and methyl-glucosides to glucose. Sn-Beta containing Lewis acid mainly promoted the retro-aldol condensation of glucose and formation of methyl lactate. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

Microalgae residue was efficiently converted into lactic acid with a high yield (33.9%) under mild reaction conditions (210 °C, 2 h) over a Fe-Sn-Beta catalyst. Under the action of homogeneous H 3 O + and distinct Lewis acid sites on the catalyst, the production of lactic acid from microalgae residue underwent three main reaction steps: hydrolysis, isomerization , and retro-aldol condensation. Results demonstrated that the lipid component had a strong inhibitory effect on the production of lactic acid due to the formation of aromatics, esters, and complex nitrogenous heterocyclic compounds , which covered or poisoned the Lewis acid sites of the catalyst. The protein component acted as a chemical buffer that enhanced the production of lactic acid by controlling the release of monosaccharides from the carbohydrate fraction of microalgae and maintaining the catalytic activity of the catalyst. Thus, microalgae residue demonstrated great promise for the production of value-added chemicals.

Bimetallic modified Fe–Sn/Beta was synthesized and examined as a solid acid catalyst for the transformation of glucose into methyl lactate in methanol. The catalysts were characterized by a combined characterization techniques i.e. X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, N 2 physisorption, powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, NH 3 temperature-programmed desorption, and pyridine adsorption Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. A high yield of methyl lactate of 67% was achieved upon conversion of 0.3 g glucose in 24 g methanol over 0.15 g catalyst at 220 ℃ under 2 MPa N 2 for 6 h. The recyclability of the catalyst was also investigated, and the conversion of glucose remained constant; conversely, the yield of methyl lactate decreased slightly in five catalytic runs. The excellent catalytic performance of Fe–Sn/Beta was attributed to the presence of large amounts of Lewis acid sites. Besides, the rich mesoporosity in Fe–Sn/Beta improved mass transfer rates in the conversion of glucose to alkyl lactates.

Lactic acid is an important platform molecule in the synthesis of a wide range of chemicals. However, in aqueous solutions without alkali, its efficient preparation via the direct catalysis of sugars is hindered by a side dehydration reaction to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural due to Brønsted acid, which originates from organic acids. Herein, we report that a previously unappreciated combination of common two metal mixed catalyst (Zn-Sn-Beta) prepared via solid-state ion exchange synergistically promoted this reaction. In water without a base, a conversion exceeding 99% for sucrose with a lactic acid yield of 54% was achieved within 2 hours at 190 °C under ambient air pressure. Studies of the acid and base properties of the Zn-Sn-Beta zeolite suggest that the introduction of Zn into the Sn-Beta zeolite sequentially enhanced both the Lewis acid and base sites and the base sites inhibited a series of side reactions related to fructose dehydration to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and its subsequent decomposition.

This study presents an efficient strategy for converting high-boiling solvent (HBS) pretreated cellulose into lactic acid (LA) over a Cr-Sn-Beta bimetallic catalyst synthesized by flash Joule heating (FJH). Ethylene glycol-based HBS pretreatment effectively enriched cellulose content in straw, while the FJH method enabled rapid and uniform metal incorporation. The resulting Cr-Sn-Beta catalyst exhibited a maximum LA yield of 33.54% with a carbon balance of 90.08%, showing high selectivity and catalytic efficiency. The synergistic function of Cr and Sn acid sites was also evaluated. This work provides a promising route for biomass valorization and catalyst design via combined pretreatment and advanced synthesis techniques.

2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a potential substitute of petroleum-based terephthalic acid to manufacture polymer. The selective aerobic oxidation of renewable 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to FDCA is a promising and appealing route for establishing sustainable and environmentally friendly chemical process. Au catalysts have exhibited exceptional catalytic performances for this highly anticipated chemical transformation, where the used support intensively impacts the catalytic productivity from the standpoint of metal-support and guest organic-support interactions. Herein, Sn-Beta zeolite was straightforward and rapidly synthesized via structural reconstruction without the auxiliary of any solvents, which was adopted as support for Au catalyst to construct bifunctional catalysts. As for Au/Sn-Beta sample, Lewis acid sites were related to Sn 4+ ions in the zeolite framework, while electronic properties and particle size of Au species were capable of being modulated by Au dosages. In addition, charge transfer from Au species to framework Sn 4+ ions resulted in the formation of Au δ+ species. Au/Sn-Beta catalyst with metal-Lewis acid cooperative active sites showed unique catalytic productivity of FDCA product in the aerobic oxidation of HMF to FDCA, whose catalytic performance was correlated with Lewis acid amounts as well as geometric and electronic effect of Au particle. Reaction mechanism analysis revealed the pathway and concrete step that Lewis acid site functioned. The aim is to provide some guidance for constructing a task-specific multifunctional supported catalyst from the view of support-enhanced effect for the catalytic conversion of biomass resource with multi-functional-groups.
