Abstract
Selective aerobic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural into 2,5-diformylfuran has been achieved on alkali doped Ru/C catalyst. Optimization of Ru metal nanoparticles, as well as the nature and amount of the alkali dopant have been performed. The results showed that doping the Ru/C catalyst with controlled amount of potassium increases the catalytic activity, 2.5 fold with respect to the non-doped sample. Spectroscopic studies showed that these differences in activity can be attributed to a different oxidation reaction mechanism associated to the presence of electron rich Ru species in the promoted sample that facilitate the dissociation of O2, while prevents the oxidation of the metal. The Ru/C-K doped catalyst resulted very stable against leaching and metal sintering, being possible the reuse over several consecutive runs. Moreover, the catalyst could be successfully applied to the oxidation of different alcohols.
