Diels-Alder Conversion of Acrylic Acid and 2,5-Dimethylfuran to para-Xylene Over Heterogeneous Bi-BTC Metal-Organic Framework Catalysts Under Mild Conditions
Abstract
The heterogeneous metal-organic framework Bi-BTC successfully catalyzed the synthesis of para-xylene from bio-based 2,5-dimethylfuran and acrylic acid in a promising yield (92 %), under relatively mild conditions (160 °C, 10 bar), and with a low reaction-energy barrier (47.3 kJ mol-1 ). The proposed reaction strategy also demonstrates a remarkable versatility for furan derivatives such as furan and 2-methylfuran.
Keywords: 2,5-dimethylfuran; Bi-BTC; acrylic acid; metal-organic frameworks; para-xylene.
