Description

Catalyst for synthesizing amino acid and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of electrocatalytic amino acid synthesis, and particularly relates to a catalyst for synthesizing amino acid, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The amino acid can form peptide chain, which is the basic component of protein, and can be used as various functional materials such as feed additive, flavoring agent, fiber, medicine, etc. Plays an indispensable role in a plurality of industries such as food health care, biological medicine, agriculture, animal husbandry and the like. At present, the fermentation process for producing amino acids mainly by microbial fermentation culture of sugar raw materials has non-negligible disadvantages, such as high energy consumption and long time for culture, and complicated separation and purification processes of products. Chemical synthesis is a simple and effective method for producing amino acid, and the traditional method for synthesizing amino acid mainly depends on a Strecker synthesis scheme using cyanide as a raw material, and has strong toxicity and is not good for environment.
Electrocatalytic synthesis technology is considered to be one of the new approaches to achieve high value-added chemical synthesis. The waste pollutants or carbon dioxide, nitrate, nitrogen and the like are used as raw materials to become a green strategy for constructing the electrochemical C-N bond. However, these molecules are chemically stable and activation is relatively difficult. Some researchers have successfully performed electrochemical methods for constructing C-N bonds to amino acids using ammonia, hydroxylamine or nitrogen oxides as nitrogen sources and α -keto acids or oxalic acid as carbon sources. Among them, oxalic acid is one of the most common organic acids and is widely available, such as straw, pineapple waste, jute sticks, and the like. Reduction of nitrate ions is widely studied as a widely occurring contaminant in wastewater. The oxalic acid and nitrate are used as raw materials to synthesize amino acid, so that the conversion of high-added-value chemicals can be realized, and the removal of pollutants can be realized.
Since oxalic acid has a very negative reduction potential, acidic conditions are often required to achieve selective reduction. In addition, the electrocatalytic synthesis of amino acids from oxalic acid and nitrate requires a multi-step, multi-electron, multi-proton process. How to effectively inhibit hydrogen evolution under high current and achieve high selectivity has not been an effective solution. Therefore, the development of a catalyst which has high hydrogen evolution overpotential and can simultaneously realize selective reduction of oxalic acid and nitrate is of great significance for improving the synthesis efficiency of amino acid.
