For dimethyl ether (DME) carbonylation, pyridine pre-adsorbed hydrogen mordenite (H-MOR) is beneficial to prolonging the catalyst life. The adsorption and diffusion behaviors on periodic models H-AlMOR and H-AlMOR-Py were simulated. The simulation was based on Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics. The following conclusions were drawn from the simulation results. The adsorption stability of CO in 8-MR is increased, and the adsorption density of CO in 8-MR is more concentrated on H-AlMOR-Py. 8-MR is the main active site for DME carbonylation, so the introduction of pyridine would be beneficial for the main reaction. The adsorption distributions of methyl acetate (MA) (in 12-MR) and HO on H-AlMOR-Py are significantly decreased. It means the product MA and the byproduct HO are more easily desorbed on H-AlMOR-Py. For the mixed feed of DME carbonylation, the feed ratio (/) must reach 50:1 on H-AlMOR so that the reaction molar ratio can reach the theoretical value (/ ≈ 1:1), while the feed ratio on H-AlMOR-Py is only up to 10:1. Thus, the feed ratio can be adjusted, and raw materials can reduce consumption. In conclusion, H-AlMOR-Py can improve the adsorption equilibrium of reactants CO and DME and increase the concentration of CO in 8-MR.

As the Brønsted acid sites in the 8-membered ring (8-MR) of mordenite (MOR) are reported to be the active center for dimethyl ether (DME) carbonylation reaction, it is of great importance to selectively increase the Brønsted acid amount in the 8-MR. Herein, a series of Fe-HMOR was prepared through one-pot hydrothermal synthesis by adding the EDTA-Fe complex into the gel. By combining XRD, FTIR, UV-Vis, Raman and XPS, it was found that the Fe atoms selectively substituted for the Al atoms in the 12-MR channels because of the large size of the EDTA-Fe complex.

The zeolite-catalyzed conversion of DME into chemicals is considered environmentally friendly in industry. The periodic density functional theory, statistical thermodynamics, and the transition state theory are used to study some possible parallel reactions about the hydrogen-bonded DME over zeolite ferrierite. The following are the key findings: (1) the charge separation probably leads to the conversion of a hydrogen-bonded DME into a dimethyl oxonium ion (i.

In this study, pyrazole tartrate (Pya·DL) and tartaric acid (DL) complexed with cobalt-iron bimetallic modified hydrogen-type mordenite (HMOR) were prepared using the ion exchange method. The results demonstrate that the stability of the dimethyl ether (DME) carbonylation reaction to methyl acetate (MA) was significantly improved after the introduction of Pya·DL to HMOR.
