Description

Protonated carbon nitrides for selective photocatalytic oxidation of alcohols to esters and uses thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of photocatalytic organic synthesis, and particularly relates to protonated carbon nitride and application of the protonated carbon nitride as a photocatalyst in selective oxidation of alcohol to generate ester.
Background
Ester compounds are a class of abundant and highly important chemical substances, and are widely applied to the fields of polymers, natural products, medicines and other fine chemical engineering. Generally, esters are prepared by reacting carboxylic acids or reactive acid derivatives with alcohols, and although this process is widely used in industrial and scientific laboratories, the process steps are cumbersome and often result in the formation of large amounts of unwanted by-products. To break through this limitation, in recent years, scientists have developed a number of strategies for synthesizing esters. For example, oxidative esterification of aldehydes is an effective method for preparing esters. However, this method requires a metal salt as an oxidizing agent or a noble metal as a catalyst: (Nat. Chem.2010, 2, 61), which does not meet the original intention of green chemistry. Thus, develop aThe preparation method of the ester compound which is environment-friendly and has low cost is very significant.
Alcohol compounds can be prepared from renewable biomass, are environmentally friendly and abundant, and are often used as solvents and substrates for various chemical reactions. In various alcohol conversion reactions, the direct oxidation of alcohols to esters using oxygen is clearly attractive. To date, there have been only few studies on the direct esterification of alcohols, most of which are based on homogeneous catalytic systems, requiring noble metal-based catalysts, such as palladium (a), (b), (c), (d), and (d)Org. Lett.2013, 15, 5072), ruthenium (A)Angew. Chem., Int. Ed.2012, 51, 5711), gold (J. Am. Chem. Soc2010, 132, 15096), and iridium (iridium) (iridium: (iridium) (2010, 132) (15096) (iridium) (2010, and (iridium) (2010, 132) (iridium) (J. Org. Chem.2011, 76, 2937). Moreover, these homogeneous catalytic systems require the addition of a base to neutralize the acid generated during the process, and generally need to be carried out at high temperatures and pressures in order to obtain higher yields. In general, heterogeneous catalysis is advantageous over homogeneous catalysis because the catalyst is easily separated from the reaction mixture and can be effectively recycled. Therefore, it is attractive and challenging to develop a heterogeneous, cheap and easily available catalyst for efficiently catalyzing the oxidation of alcohol compounds to ester compounds.
As an important non-metallic material, polymeric carbon nitride is of great interest due to its unique properties, particularly visible light response and excellent chemical stability (C: (C))Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., 2019, 58, 6164). These properties have led to the widespread use of carbon nitride in heterogeneous organic synthesis reactions. In the reported selective oxidation reactions of alcohols involving carbon nitride, the product is usually an aldehyde rather than an ester (C: (C) (R))Chem. Sci., 2013, 4, 3244). So far, there is no report of direct oxidation of alcohols to esters without adding a metal-containing carbon nitride catalyst. The present invention uses an acid to treat carbon nitride to obtain protonated carbon nitride. The method not only retains the better oxidation capability of the fused salt carbon nitride, but also introduces an acid site on the surface, and can realize the high-efficiency oxidation of the benzyl alcohol and the methanol to generate the methyl benzoate under the conditions of oxygen and illumination.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide protonated carbon nitride and a method for selectively oxidizing alcohol to generate ester by using the protonated carbon nitride as a photocatalyst. The protonized carbon nitride prepared by the method overcomes the defect of weak oxidation capability of the traditional carbon nitride, and can realize the high-efficiency oxidation of benzyl alcohol and methanol to generate methyl benzoate.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a protonized carbon nitride for selective photocatalytic oxidation of alcohol to ester is prepared through thermal polymerization to obtain bulk-phase carbon nitride, treating by molten-salt method to obtain molten-salt carbon nitride, and reacting with acid to obtain said protonized carbon nitride.

In the step (1), the amine-containing solid powder is melamine, cyanamide or urea.
The inorganic salt in the step (2) comprises any one or more of sodium chloride, lithium chloride, potassium chloride, ammonium chloride and the like.
The acid solution used in the step (4) is an aqueous solution of inorganic acid such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid or phosphoric acid.
The protonated carbon nitride can be used for selective photocatalytic oxidation of alcohol to generate ester, and specifically, the protonated carbon nitride is used as a photocatalyst, and under the irradiation of visible light with the wavelength of 420nm, oxygen is used as an oxidant to selectively catalyze benzyl alcohol to react with methanol to generate methyl benzoate.
