Multifunctional Tin-based heterogeneous catalyst for catalytic conversion of glucose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural Ke Li†, Mengmeng Du†, Peijun Ji* Department of Chemical Engineering, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, Beisanhuandonglu 15, Chaoyang district, Beijing, 100029, China E-mail: [email protected] (P. Ji) ABSTRACT Using 5-sulfoisophthalic acid as the ligand, Tin porous coordination polymer (SnPCP) was synthesized on polydopamine-coated MnO2 (MnO2−PDA). The novel composite SnPCP@MnO2−PDA

was

used

for

conversion

of

glucose

into

5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). The tetrahedral coordinated tin and the sulfonic groups of the ligand catalyze glucose isomerization to fructose and fructose dehydration to HMF, respectively. Thus, the composite is a bifunctional catalyst. The porous structure of SnPCP of the composite facilitates the transport of glucose, intermediate and HMF within the catalyst. In addition, MnO2−PDA was found to be able to catalyze the conversion of glucose to HMF. The synergistic effect of SnPCP and MnO2−PDA achieved HMF yields of 55.8% in DMSO and 41.2% in water/THF. Consecutive use of SnPCP@MnO2−PDA demonstrated that after 5 cycles, the activity loss is not significant in terms of the HMF yield and glucose conversion. KEYWORDS: Tin-based catalyst; 5-hydroxymethylfurfural; glucose; synergistic effect.

 INTRODUCTION 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a

biomass-based important platform

compound which can be used to synthesize biofuel and high-value chemicals applicable in pharmaceuticals, petroleum industry and furanose-based polymers.1-4

Glucose is the most attractive biomass-derived carbohydrate. It can be used as starting material for producing HMF.5 Producing the platform chemical HMF from glucose contributes to the sustainable development. When conventional Brønsted acids were used to catalyze the dehydration of glucose into HMF, HMF was obtained with a low yield, because the stability of the glucose ring makes processing difficult.6,7 Therefore effective catalysts are required for the synthesis of HMF from glucose. Producing HMF from glucose can be carried out in two steps, glucose is isomerized to fructose and fructose is dehydrated to HMF, as illustrated in Scheme 1.7

Scheme 1. Simplified reaction scheme for conversion of glucose to HMF through glucose isomerization and subsequent dehydration.

Due to the economic prospect producing HMF from glucose, many investigations have been performed. Chemical catalysts, homogeneous and heterogeneous, have been investigated for catalyzing glucose isomerization, such as hydrotalcite catalyst,8 cationized zeolites,9,10 organic bases,11 anionized resins,12 and phosphoric acid treated metal oxides.13 Tin based catalysts, including Lewis acidic metal salt SnCl4 and Sn-Beta,14-24 are promising catalysts for carbohydrate isomerization. Liquid acids, such as H2SO4, HCl in water, and H3PO4, can be used to catalyze fructose dehydration. There are some concerns for using these homogeneous catalysts, such as environmental pollution and difficult in product separation and recovery of catalysts .25 In contrast, solid acid catalysts are easy to recover and cause less environmental pollution.26,27 Sulfonate groups functionalized solid acids are well known to be favorable for fructose dehydration.25,28,29 2

Isomerization of glucose into fructose catalyzed by glucose isomerase is an equilibrium-limited reaction. Simeonov and coworkers used two-pot approach to convert glucose to HMF by using biocatalyst and chemical catalyst separately, isomerization of glucose to fructose by glucose isomerase and fructose dehydration to HMF by Brønsted acids.30 However, the operation conditions are limited when using glucose isomerase, as the enzyme is denatured at high temperature and harsh pH conditions.31-32 On the contrary, Lewis acids solid catalysts, which have shown to be active for glucose isomerization, can catalyze at a wide range of operation conditions.31-32 The catalysts possessing both Lewis/Brønsted acids sites have been investigated for one-pot conversion of glucose to HMF.31-33 The one-pot approach does not require separating and purifying the intermediates, and can get around the reaction equilibrium of glucose isomerization. A polydivinylbenzene polymeric material was used for catalyzing glucose conversion to HMF in a two-phases system, HMF with a stable yield was produced.32 Sulfonated MIL-101Cr was applied for producing HMF from glucose, in the mixed solvents THF/H2O, a glucose conversion of 29% after 24 h reaction was achieved.33 In another one-pot approach, Lewis acidic Sn-Beta and HCl were used as the catalyst, and the HMF yields were in excess of 50%.7 These results showed that combining Brønsted acid and Lewis acid can enhance glucose conversion to HMF. SnCl4 dissolved in EMIMBr could efficiently convert high-concentration glucose into HMF. 15 Sn-Beta has shown promising catalytic properties on lab-scale, however, the use of fluoride ions and relatively long crystallization times for synthesizing this material might hinder its industrial application.34,35 To reduce the crystallization time and crystallite sizes, alternative synthesis methods have been studied, including steam-assisted conversion,36 extensive seeding,34 and post-synthetic methods.37 Tin 3

phosphate was prepared for converting glucose into HMF. Tetra-coordinated Sn4+ sites from tin phosphate were identified as the major catalytic species for the isomerization of glucose into fructose.38 Sn(IV) salts are prone to fast and uncontrolled hydrolysis in solution, as noted by the fuming precipitation of tin oxide when SnCl4 is exposed to humid atmospheres.39 Sn species for the preparation of Sn based catalysts should be preferentially present in tetrahedral coordination, and not in octahedral coordination like in SnO2, which showed poor catalytic activities.40 Therefore, synthesis of the Sn based catalyst with high Sn loading without the formation of bulk SnO2 remains a challenge. Porous coordination polymers (PCPs) are formed by coordinating metal ions linked by imidazolate or anionic carboxylate ligands. Due to possessing large surface area, tunable pore sizes, and versatile architectures, PCPs have been developed as promising catalysts.41 Various ligands can be used in preparation of PCPs, thus desired functional groups can be introduced into PCPs. In this work, using 5-sulfoisophthalic acid as the ligand, a coordinated tin-based PCP (SnPCP) has been synthesized on polydopamine-coated MnO2 (MnO2-PDA), as illustrated in Scheme 2. The composite SnPCP@MnO2-PDA contains -SO3H groups and Sn(IV). Thus, SnPCP@MnO2-PDA is a bifunctional composite, which combines the functions of glucose isomerization and fructose dehydration. This novel composite has been used as the catalyst for catalyzing the conversion of glucose into HMF.

 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Characterization of SnPCP and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA. Figure 1 shows the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of SnPCP, MnO2, MnO2-PDA, and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA. SnPCP exhibited amorphous nano- to micro-sized particles (Figure 1a). MnO2 itself exhibited microshperes with nanoneedles on their surfaces (Figure 1b). After coating polydopamine (PDA) on MnO2, the nanoneedles cannot be observed, the surface wrinkling is ascribed to the coating of PDA (Figure 1c). The composite SnPCP@MnO2-PDA shows that the amorphous SnPCP particles deposited on MnO2-PDA (Figure 1d). Some SnPCP particles were not on the surface of MnO2-PDA, they were scattered around.

Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and XPS spectra analysis. XPS and EDS spectra were recorded for elemental analysis. As shown in Figures 2a, there are significant peaks corresponding to C, O, S and Sn in the EDS image. Figure 2b shows the XPS wide scan spectrum of SnPCP. In the spectrum, the peaks for Sn3d, Sn3p, S2s and S2p appeared. The XPS spectrum for C1s of SnPCP was fitted with Lorentzian and Gaussian lines of variable proportion. XPS spectra were analyzed to reveal the functional moieties on the SnPCP. As shown in supplementary Figure S1a, the peak at 284.7 eV of the C1s XPS spectra was ascribed to C=C/C–C in the aromatic rings. The deconvoluted C1s XPS spectra display two peaks at 286.6 and 288.9, which were assigned to the C-O and carbonyl carbon (C=O) of the ligand (5-sulfoisophthalic acid).42 The S2p peak is split into the S2p1/2 and S2p3/2 peaks (supplementary Figure S1b), they are centered at 168.1 and 169.2 eV, respectively, with a peak area ratio of about 2:1 as expected for the sulfonic acid group. 43

Figure S2a and S2b show the C1s XPS spectra for MnO2-PDA and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA, respectively. The peak at 284.7 eV was ascribed to C=C/C–C and C-NH2 in the aromatic rings. The two peaks at 288.9 and 286.6 were assigned to and C=O/C=N and C-O/C-N, respectively.42,43 5-Sulfoisophthalic acid was coordinated with Sn in SnPCP@MnO2-PDA, the carboxyl groups are reflected by the shoulder peak at 288.9 (supplementary Figure S2b), this shoulder peak becomes prominent in comparison to that of MnO2-PDA (supplementary Figure S2a). The S2p peak can be splited into S2p1/2 at 168.1 eV and S2p3/2 at 169.2 eV, which were ascribed to the sulfonic acid group (supplementary Figure S2c).44 The EDS and XPS spectra shown in Figure 3 and supplementary Figure S2 confirmed that the Sn coordinated polymer was loaded on MnO2-PDA. The existing states of Sn species for SnPCP@MnO2-PDA and SnPCP samples were investigated by measuring XPS spectra as shown in Figure 4. The peaks at 486.0 and 494.4 eV were ascribed to the Sn atoms in SnO2.45 While the SnPCP@MnO2-PDA and SnPCP samples displayed two peaks of 3d5/2 and 3d3/2 at 487.2 eV and 495.7, respectively.45 The interval of the two peaks is 8.5eV, which indicates the Sn being present in Sn(IV) state.

Figure 4. XPS of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA (blue) and SnPCP (black). FTIR spectra. In the MnO2-PDA FTIR spectrum, the band at 1588 cm−1 was assigned to νring (C=C) stretching modes (Figure 5),46 confirming the coating of polydopamine. In the spectra for SnPCP@MnO2-PDA and SnPCP, the band at 1630 cm-1 was assigned to the asymmetric stretching vibrations of C=O. Generally, free carboxyl groups have an absorption band at 1700 cm-1.47 The C=O band was shifted to 1630 cm-1 because of the coordination between Sn4+ and the carboxyl groups in SnPCP@MnO2-PDA and SnPCP. The peaks at 1190 and 1040 cm−1 were associated with symmetric and asymmetric stretching vibrations of the sulfonic acid group.48

Pyridine-adsorbed FTIR analysis. Through the FTIR analysis for pyridine adsorption, the Lewis and Brønsted acid sites can be distinced.49 The FTIR spectra of the SnPCP and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA catalysts after pyridine adsorption are shown in Figure 6. For SnPCP, the bands at 1446 and 1604 cm-1 resulted from the pyridine adsorption on Lewis acid sites (Figure 6a), confirming the Lewis acidity of SnPCP. The band at 1558 cm-1 resulted from the C–C stretching vibration of pyridinium ion, which is a characteristic band being used to identify Brønsted acid sites. The peak at 1481 cm−1 was ascribed to the pyridine that had been adsorbed on both Lewis and Brønsted acid sites.13,50 SnPCP@MnO2-PDA exhibited the bands at 1446 and 1604 cm-1 due to the pyridine that had been adsorbed on the Lewis acid sites, at 1558 cm-1 due to the pyridine that had been adsorbed on Brønsted acid sites, and at 1498 cm−1 attributed to pyridine that had been adsorbed on both the Lewis and Brønsted acid sites.

addition, SnPCP@MnO2-PDA exhibited fewer peaks than SnPCP, indicating the structure difference between the two catalysts. Based on the pyridine FTIR spectra (Figure 6), the Bronsted band area (BBA) was obtained by integrating from 1552 to 1566 cm-1, and the Lewis acid band area (LABA) was obtained by integrating from 1442-1454 cm-1. The ratios of BBA to LABA were 0.16 and 0.91 for SnPCP and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA, respectively. Compared to SnPCP, SnPCP@MnO2-PDA possesses less Lewis acid sites. As the Lewis acid sites are mainly ascribed to the Sn(IV), based on the FTIR spectra it can be deduced that the SnPCP@MnO2-PDA contains less Sn(IV) than SnPCP. The FTIR spectra results are consistent with the ICP-AES elemental analysis, which showed that the amount of Sn(IV) in SnPCP@MnO2-PDA (31.5 wt%) is smaller than that in SnPCP (59.3 wt%). Lewis acidic sites play an important role in the isomerization of glucose to fructose, and Brønsted acidic sites can promote the dehydration of fructose into HMF. A balanced Brønsted/Lewis acids ratio can contribute to achieving higher yield and selectivity for conversion of glucose to HMF.51-53 The Brønsted and Lewis acids sites on SnPCP@MnO2-PDA are better balanced than that on SnPCP.

Figure 6. Pyridine FTIR spectra for SnPCP and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA.

N2 adsorption and desorption isotherms analysis. The isotherms of SnPCP and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA exhibited a type-IV curve (Figure 7a), suggesting the existence of both micropores and mesopores. The BET specific surface area of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA is 240.6 m2 g-1, which is larger than that of SnPCP (198.9 m2 g-1). SnPCP@MnO2-PDA exhibited a hysteresis for P/P0 from 0.4 to 0.8, while SnPCP exhibited a hysteresis for P/P0 from 0.4 to 0.98, indicating the presence of some larger mesopores in SnPCP. It is also indicated that SnPCP has a larger pore size distribution than SnPCP@MnO2-PDA. The average mesopores diameter for SnPCP@MnO2-PDA is 3.6 nm, which is smaller than that of SnPCP (4.8 nm). The pore size distribution is shown in Figure 7b.

8a). Similar reaction was performed using SnPCP@MnO2-PDA as the catalyst. Figure 8b shows that under the catalysis of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA, 99.6% of fructose was converted, and the HMF yield was 98.0%. The results indicate that the sulfonic groups in the frames of SnPCP and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA are effective for dehydration of fructose into HMF. Then the catalysts SnPCP and SnPCP@MnO2-PDA were used to catalyze the conversion of glucose into HMF. Figure 8c shows the results under the catalysis of SnPCP. After 5 h reaction, 63.7% of glucose was converted and the HMF yield was 39.4%. The HMF selectivity is 61.8%. The yield of fructose was 1.2 % after 5 h. Figure 8d shows results under the catalysis of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA, 92.3% of glucose was converted and the HMF yield was 55.8% after 5 h reaction. The HMF selectivity is 60.5%.

SnPCP@MnO2-PDA (31.5 wt%) is smaller than that in SnPCP (59.3 wt%). This means that SnPCP@MnO2-PDA with less loading of Sn(IV) exhibited a similar activity to SnPCP with more loading of Sn(IV). However, for conversion of glucose into HMF, SnPCP@MnO2-PDA showed a higher catalytic activity than SnPCP. To investigate the role of MnO2, PDA, and MnO2-PDA played in the catalysis, they were used as individual catalysts catalyzing the conversion of glucose into HMF. The results in Table 1 show that under the respective catalysis by MnO2 and PDA, fructose and HMF could not be detected. It is indicated that when MnO2 and PDA were used as single catalysts, they did not exhibit any activity for producing fructose and HMF. However, the PDA coated MnO2 (MnO2-PDA) can achieve a fructose yield of 16.3% and a HMF yield of 3.8%. The results in Table 1 suggest that the higher activity achieved by SnPCP@MnO2-PDA is ascribed to the synergistic effect of SnPCP and MnO2-PDA. In addition, Figure 6 shows that the Brønsted and Lewis acids sites on SnPCP@MnO2-PDA are better balanced than that on SnPCP. Figure 7 shows that SnPCP@MnO2-PDA has a smaller average pore size than SnPCP, and has a larger BET specific surface area than SnPCP. The two aspects also contribute to the activity improvement for SnPCP@MnO2-PDA. The TOFs of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA and SnPCP were 2.01 and 0.7 h-1 after the first hour of reaction, respectively, indicating the advantage of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA over SnPCP. Table 1.

Except DMSO was used as reaction solvent, water, DMA, THF, and the mixture of water/THF were also investigated as solvents under the catalysis of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA. Water is a highly preferred green solvent. DMA is a dipolar aprotic organic solvent and can inhibit the side reactions to some extent.49 HMF can have a good solubility in THF, but glucose has a poor solubility in THF. The results are listed in Table 2. In DMA, water, and THF, the HMF selectivity is comparable. The HMF yields are in sequence of DMA> water > THF. The HMF yield in pure THF is lower than in other solvents due to the poor solubility of glucose has in pure THF. In the mixed solvents water/THF, the HMF selectivity is higher than that in DMA, water, and THF. This is ascribed to the extraction of HMF by THF during the reaction.7 THF is a low boiling point solvent, facilitating subsequent separation of HMF. Figure 9 shows the glucose conversion, fructose yield, and HMF yield in the mixed solvents. After 5 h reaction, SnPCP@MnO2-PDA achieved a HMF yield of 41.2% and a HMF selectivity of 56.3%. Table 2.

Glucose conversion, fructose yield and HMF yield versus reaction time under the catalysis of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA in water/THF (v:v 1:4) The catalytic performance of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA in DMSO and biphasic system was compared with other Sn catalyzed reaction systems. As shown in Table 3, the HMF yield and selectivity by SnPCP@MnO2-PDA are higher than that by the homogeneous catalysts SnCl4, Sn phosphate, and Sn-Mont in DMSO.15,38,54 SnPCP@MnO2-PDA gave rise to better results in the mixed solvents water/THF than Sn-Beta in a biphasic system of H2O/1-butanol.7 With the addition of HCl to the reaction solution, the HMF yield and selectivity by Sn-Beta in the mixed solvents H2O/THF/HCl were 56.9% and 72% respectively.7 As HCl alone can contribute to about 10% of the HMF yield, it can be concluded that SnPCP@MnO2-PDA exhibited a comparable catalytic capability with Sn-Beta.

To assess possible deactivation of the catalyst, the reaction for each cycle was controlled for 1 h when the glucose conversion is below 50%.55 The consecutive use of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA was performed in DMSO. Figure 10 shows that after five reuse cycles, the conversion and HMF yield had a very small change, indicating that the catalyst had little deactivation during the recycling catalysis. EDS and XPS spectra were measured for the catalyst SnPCP@MnO2-PDA after reuse. Supplementary Figures S3 and S4 show that the relative intensities of the elements were almost the same before and after reuse of the catalyst, indicating that SnPCP@MnO2-PDA had no significant change after the reuse.

 CONCLUSIONS The novel composite SnPCP@MnO2-PDA was synthesized. The Sn-based catalyst was prepared at low temperatures (100 ° C) with no requirement of calcinations. All these contribute to the catalyst preparation in a facile way and not expensive. The composite SnPCP@MnO2-PDA possesses bifunctional catalysis 23

ability, catalyzing the tandem reactions of glucose isomerization to fructose and fructose dehydration to HMF. The porous structure of SnPCP facilitates the transport of glucose, intermediate and HMF within the catalyst. In addition, MnO2-PDA was found to be able to catalyze the conversion of glucose to fructose and HMF. The synergistic effect of SnPCP and MnO2-PDA achieved HMF yields of 55.8% in DMSO and 41.2% in the mixed solvents water/THF. The Brønsted and Lewis acids sites are appropriately balanced on SnPCP@MnO2-PDA, contributing to achieving high HMF yield and selectivity. Consecutive use of SnPCP@MnO2-PDA demonstrated that after 5 cycles, the activity loss is not significant in terms of the HMF yield and glucose conversion.
