The Facile Production of -Chloroaniline Facilitated by an Efficient and Chemoselective Metal-Free N/S Co-Doped Carbon Catalyst.

The catalytic hydrogenation of the toxic and harmful -chloronitrobenzene to produce the value-added -chloroaniline is an essential reaction for the sustainable chemical industry. Nevertheless, ensuring satisfactory control of its chemoselectivity is a great challenge. In this work, a N/S co-doped metal-free carbon catalyst has been fabricated by using cysteine as a source of C, N, and S.

Analyzing the Effect of Zr, W, and V Isomorph Framework Substitution on ZSM-5 and Beta Zeolites for Their Use as Hydrocarbon Trap.

This work evaluates the effect on the adsorption and desorption kinetics of propene and toluene (used as probe molecules for vehicle cold-start emissions) of the isomorph framework substitution of Zr, W, and V on commercial ZSM-5 and beta zeolites. TG-DTA and XRD characterization data indicated that: (i) Zr does not modify the crystalline structure of the parent zeolites, (ii) W develops a new crystalline phase, and (iii) V causes the breakdown of the zeolite structure during the aging step. The CO and N adsorption data revealed that the substituted zeolites present a narrower microporosity than pristine zeolites.
