Controlling the Physical Properties of Fe3O4-Immobilized Palladium Complexes towards Reusable Catalysts in the Methoxycarbonylation of 1-Hexene
November 30, 2023
This paper describes the use of immobilized palladium catalysts on Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to afford magnetically separable catalysts in the methoxycarbonylation of 1-hexene. Immobilization of homogeneous complex [Pd(L1)Cl2] (Pd1), where L1 = N,N′E,N,N′E)-N,N′-(3-(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)pentane-2,4-diylidene)dianiline, on Fe3O4 MNPs at 100 °C and Pd loading of 10% (based on wt% of Pd1) afforded the corresponding complex [Pd1@Fe3O4] (Pd2) in good yields. The use of calcination temperatures of 150 °C and 200 °C produced compounds Pd3 and Pd4, respectively, while Pd metal loadings (based on wt% of Pd1) of 5% and 15% provided complexes Pd5 and Pd6, respectively. The immobilized compounds were analyzed using FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM-EDX, TEM, ICP-OES, and PXRD techniques. The surface areas and porosity of the materials were determined using nitrogen physisorption measurements and confirmed the formation of mesoporous materials, while SQUID measurements established Ms values in the range of 60.69 to 69.93 emu/g. The immobilized Pd(II) complexes catalyzed the methoxycarbonylation of 1-hexene, yielding mainly linear esters. The immobilized compounds could be recycled up to five times via magnetic separation without significant loss in catalytic activities.
