ABSTRACT: An amine phase-transfer approach is nov-

el designed for the facile and recycle fixation and nonbiological mineralization of CO2 into alkaline earth carbonate (MCO3, M = Ca, Sr, and Ba) crystals with uniformed polymorphs at room temperature under atmosphere pressure. The amines’ system based on two phases of water and Zn-tetraphenylporphyrin (ZnTPP) in CH2Cl2 provides a green and sustainable CO2 capture and utilization (CCU) strategy for the mitigation of anthropogenic CO2 emission to atmosphere. Keywords: amine phase-transfer; fixation of CO2; nonbiological mineralization of CO2; Zntetraphenylporphyrin; CO2 capture and utilization; volatility of amine

With the mitigation of global-warming and the sustainable development of inevitable carbon economy, CCU has become a significant topic and aroused considerable interests in green and sustainable chemistry.1-4 The major obstacle of various CCU technologies is the lack of economical processes to convert CO2 into addedvalue chemicals5,6 and ultimately afford environmentally friendly C1 feedstock.7,8 Because carbon in CO2 is at the most thermodynamically stable oxidation state, reactive substances or electro-reductive processes are often required to activate CO2 via chemical reactions under catalysts and/or with high energy need for CCU.9-15 Recently, the non-biological mineralization of CO2 to MCO316-18 crystals can not only directly consume large amounts of CO2, but also produce valuable chemicals, and its thus particularly important. However, the mineralization often requires templates or additives, high temperature, or long reaction times.19 In this work, we designed an amine phase-transfer approach (Fig. 1) to the cyclical non-biological mineralization of CO2 to MCO3 crystals at room temperature under atmosphere pressure. The approach mainly includes a recyclable amine/ammonium ion phase-transfer

process and the controllable conversion between amine and ammonium ion. The amine is first transferred from aqueous phase (water) into CH2Cl2 phase to form a colored coordination complex with ZnTPP (Fig. 2). CO2 is then introduced to compete with ZnTPP and to form carbamate and bicarbonate with the amine in the presence of water, which releases ZnTPP in the CH2Cl2 phase for next cycle. The aqueous carbamate and bicarbonate solution is then briefly mixed with an appropriate amount of M(OH)2 (M = Ca, Sr, and Ba) to precipitate of MCO3 nanocrystals with uniform polymorphs at room temperature, and the filtrate containing free amine is reusable for next circle. The system was tuned and optimized with five amines and three M(OH)2. Our work provides a green and sustainable CCU approach featuring with high efficiency and low cost.

Various CO2 capture systems based on liquid amines including MEA, DEA, TEA, and methyldiethylamine (MDEA)25-30 have been tested to remove CO2. However, these systems usually require solvent regeneration at high energy cost (100 to 120 ºC),31,32 and undergo solvent losses caused by evaporation and thermal degradation during the absorption-desorption cycles, which affects their practical applications. In addition, the released CO2 cannot be fully utilized. Recently, Kang et al.33 used 2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) as CO2 absorbent to test its regeneration when calcium source were calcium chloride (CaCl2) and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2), found this system could permanently sequester CO2 with high desorption efficiency in precipitated CaCO3 after CO2 desorbing from the amine, and concluded that chemical regeneration deployed a swing in the pH of the amine absorbent rather than the swing in temperature of typical thermal regeneration procedures, and hence reduces the regeneration energy. Simultaneously, Alexander V. Leontiev and Dmitry M. Rudkevich found that ZnTPP could form stable coordination complexes with secondary or tertiary amines,20 which made ZnTPP be an excellent acceptor of amines, but CO2

could not compete with the porphyrin for their experimental amines. However, ZnTPP is only soluble in organic solvents that are often highly volatile. Therefore, we designed the two-phase system of water and CH2Cl2 containing ZnTPP to fix amines for CO2 capture, where water was used as a seal liquid of the CH2Cl2 phase. To evaluate the possibility of such system in CO2 capture and utilization, the spectroscopic features of amine-ZnTPP in the CH2Cl2 phase were investigated using EDA as a representative amine. An aqueous solution of EDA was added stepwise into a ZnTPP CH2Cl2 solution and the absorption of the ZnTPP solution was monitored. The results revealed that the addition of EDA caused ∆λ = 10 nm bathochromic shift of the characteristic peak of Soret band from 418 to 428 nm (Fig. 3 Left), a shift of characteristic peak of Q band from 547 to 563 nm, and the disappearance of the characteristic peak of free ZnTPP at 550 nm. In addition, the clear color of ZnTPP solution changed from pink to aquamarine blue. These results suggested that a ZnTPP-amine complex was formed, where amine nitrogen was coordinated to Zn atom.20, 33-35 3

blue and the Soret band of ZnTPP bathochromically shift of ∆λ = (6-10) nm due to the formation of ZnTPPamine complexes.20 As CO2 gas was bubbled into the CH2Cl2 phase, the pink color was almost restored and the Soret band shifted back to the original position of free ZnTPP. It can be explained that CO2 competed with ZnTPP to react with amines, which dissociated the ZnTPP-amine complexes and formed carbamate and bicarbonate in the presence of water. The aqueous phase was then separated and reacted with an appropriate amount M(OH)2 at room temperature for 30 min to nonbiologically mineralize CO2 to MCO3 crystals with uniform polymorphs. The amines were then recycled for next fixation and conversion cycle. The processes were successfully repeated 6 cycles at room temperature under atmosphere pressure. Other compounds including CH4, CO, NO, O2, H2O, and N2, which typically co-exist with CO2 in industrial exhausts and desulfurized flue gases, was not able to compete with ZnTPP under the reaction conditions, and thus no visible spectral changes were detected.

The emission titration data supported the 1: 1 stoichiometry between the tested amines including EDA (Fig. 3Right), DEA, MEA, DEYA and TEA and ZnTPP with association constants range from 8 to 681 (Table 1), which were much higher than those hydrogen bonding between amines and water. Therefore, the amines can be easily transferred from the aqueous phase into CH2Cl2 phase to form ZnTPP-amine complexes. The equilibrium constants of the tested EDA and MEA with CO2 for the formation of ammonium carbamate (NH2CO2-) were reported as 4.52 × 103 and 1.75 × 105, significantly higher than those association constants between amines and ZnTPP. Meanwhile, the equilibrium constants of the tested EDA, EDYA and TEA with CO2 could not be found. Therefore, CO2 can substitute ZnTPP in the ZnTPP-amine complexes to form carbamates and phase-transfer from the CH2Cl2 phase into the aqueous phase, which restored the Soret band and Q band to their original positions at 418 nm and 547 nm, respectively (Fig. 3 Left). The color of CH2Cl2 phase became pink again (Fig. 2). It has been known for decades that CO2 can react with amines to form stable carbamate.36,37 However, It can form more stable ammonium carbamate and bicarbonate with amines in the presence of water as demonstrated by the FTIR peak of out-of-plane vibration in HCO3- at 822

The process was tunable and applicable to all tested amines, indicating its broad application. The reaction mechanism and processes were shown in Fig. 4.

The aqueous ammonium carbamate and bicarbonate solution and the CH2Cl2 phase containing free ZnTPP were then separated. The CH2Cl2 phase was directly used for next cycle without any treatment needed and exhibited good performances in 25 cycles. The aqueous ammonium carbamate and bicarbonate solution was mixed with 30 mL 0.02 mol/L M(OH)2 and allowed to react for 30 min to form MCO3 crystals with uniform polymorphs (Fig. 5) by a simple static method at room temperature, by which the amines was released and recycled for next cycle (Figs. 1 and 2). Additionally, there is a strong electrostatic interaction between EDA and M2+ (M = Ca, Sr, and Ba) due to lone pair electrons on the nitrogen atoms in EDA, thus EDA could combine with M2+ to easily absorb on the surfaces of MCO3 crystals. That is, the layer formed from adsorbed EDA molecules could be efficient templates to mediate the crystallization behavior of MCO3. Thus, a possible formation process of MCO3 crystals is shown as follows:

M(OH)2 → M2+ + 2OH(1) RNH2 + CO2 + H2O→RNH3+HCO3- (RNH3+CO2-) (2) RNH3+HCO3- (RNH3+CO2-) + OH- →RNH3+OH- + HCO3- (3) HCO3- → H+ + CO32(4) CO32- + M2+ → MCO3 ↓ (5) H+ + OH- → H2O (6) RNH3+OH- → RNH2 + H2O (7)

The filtrate containing amines without MCO3 precipitation can be re-fixed by ZnTPP for further CO2 capture. All MCO3 crystals were found with uniform polymorphs and same crystal phase, which could be applied in the fields of catalysis and adsorption after further processing. In conclusion, we develop the amine phase-transfer approach for the capture and utilization of CO2 at room temperature under atmosphere pressure. The method can

overcome the volatility of amine and convert CO2 into MCO3 with added-values. Both amine and organic phase can be recycled for CO2 capture and conversion. ASSOCIATED CONTENT Supporting Information.
