  • ceria supported rhodium nanoparticles superb catalytic activity in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane
    Applied Catalysis B-environmental, 2016
    Co-Authors: Serdar Akbayrak, Yalcin Tonbul, Saim Ozkar
    Abstract:

    Abstract We investigated the effect of various oxide supports on the catalytic activity of rhodium nanoparticles in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane. Among the oxide supports (CeO2, SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2) ceria provides the highest catalytic activity for the rhodium(0) nanoparticles in the hydrolysis of ammonia borane. Rhodium(0) nanoparticles supported on nanoceria (Rh0/CeO2) were prepared by the impregnation of rhodium(III) ions on the surface of ceria followed by their reduction with sodium borohydride in aqueous solution at room temperature. They were isolated from the reaction solution by centrifugation and characterized by a combination of advanced analytical techniques. The catalytic activity of Rh0/CeO2 samples with various rhodium loading in the range of 0.1–4.0% wt. Rh was also tested in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane at room temperature. The highest catalytic activity was achieved by using 0.1% wt. rhodium loaded nanoceria. The resulting Rh0/CeO2 with a metal loading of 0.1% wt. Rh show superb catalytic activity in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane with a record turnover frequency value (TOF) of 2010 min−1 at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C. The superb catalytic activity of Rh0/CeO2 is ascribed to the reducible nature of ceria. The reduction of cerium(IV) to cerium(III) leads to a build-up of negative charge on the oxide surface which favors the bonding of rhodium(0) nanoparticles on the surface and, thus, their catalytic activity. Rh0/CeO2 are also reusable catalysts preserving 67% of their initial catalytic activity even after the fifth use in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane at room temperature (TOF = 1350 min−1. The work reported here also includes the kinetic studies depending on the temperature to determine the activation energy (Ea = 43 ± 2 kJ/mol) and the effect of catalyst concentration on the rate of hydrolysis of ammonia borane.

  • pvp stabilized nickel 0 nanoparticles as catalyst in hydrogen generation from the methanolysis of hydrazine borane or ammonia borane
    Applied Catalysis B-environmental, 2015
    Co-Authors: Derya Ozhava, Nihan Zulay Kilicaslan, Saim Ozkar
    Abstract:

    Abstract Herein we report the results of a detailed study on the in-situ generation of poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles and their catalytic activity in methanolysis of hydrazine borane and ammonia borane. PVP-stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles with an average particle size of 3.0 ± 0.7 nm were in-situ generated from the reduction of nickel(II) 2-ethylhexanoate during the methanolysis of hydrazine borane in the presence of PVP at room temperature. Polymer stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles could be isolated from the solution by centrifugation and characterized by UV–vis spectroscopy, XPS, TEM, and SAED. PVP-stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles are highly active and long lived catalyst in hydrogen generation from the methanolysis of hydrazine borane and ammonia borane at ambient temperature. The results of kinetic study reveal that the methanolysis is first order with respect to catalyst concentration and zero order regarding to substrate concentration in both cases. PVP-stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles provide 14,500 turnovers in hydrogen generation from the methanolysis of hydrazine borane and 5300 turnovers from the methanolysis of ammonia borane. They also provide an initial turnover frequency of 35.6 and 12.1 min−1 for the catalytic methanolysis of hydrazine borane and ammonia borane, respectively.

  • hydroxyapatite supported ruthenium 0 nanoparticles catalyst in hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane insight to the nanoparticles formation and hydrogen evolution kinetics
    Applied Catalysis B-environmental, 2013
    Co-Authors: Serdar Akbayrak, Pelin Erdek, Saim Ozkar
    Abstract:

    Abstract When a solution of ammonia borane is added to the suspension of ruthenium(III) ions supported on hydroxyapatite, both reduction of ruthenium(III) to ruthenium(0) nanoparticles and hydrogen release from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane occur concomitantly at room temperature. Using the hydrogen evolution from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane as reporter reaction provides valuable insights to the formation kinetics of ruthenium(0) nanoparticles. Thus, the rate constants for the slow nucleation and autocatalytic surface growth of ruthenium(0) nanoparticles could be obtained. Furthermore, the evaluation of rate constants at various temperatures provides the estimation of activation energies for both reactions; Ea = 166 ± 7 kJ/mol for the nucleation and Ea = 59 ± 2 kJ/mol for the autocatalytic surface growth of ruthenium(0) nanoparticles. The ruthenium(0) nanoparticles, in situ formed during the hydrolysis of ammonia borane and supported on hydroxyapatite, could be isolated from the reaction solution and characterized by a combination of advanced analytical techniques. The results show that (i) highly dispersed ruthenium(0) nanoparticles of 4.7 ± 0.7 nm size were formed on the surface of hydroxyapatite, (ii) they are highly active catalyst in the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane with a turnover frequency value of 137 min−1 at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C, and (iii) they are long lived and reusable catalyst providing 87,000 turnovers for hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane and preserving 92% of their initial catalytic activity even after the fifth run of hydrolysis of ammonia borane at 25.0 ± 0.1 °C. The results of kinetic study on the hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane were also reported including the activation energy of 58 ± 2 kJ/mol for the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane.

  • zeolite framework stabilized nickel 0 nanoparticles active and long lived catalyst for hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane and sodium borohydride
    Catalysis Today, 2011
    Co-Authors: Mehmet Zahmakiran, Serdar Akbayrak, Derya Celik, Tugce Ayvali, Salim Caliskan, Saim Ozkar
    Abstract:

    Abstract Among the hydrogen storage materials, ammonia-borane and sodium borohydride appear to be promising candidates as they can release hydrogen on hydrolysis in aqueous solution under mild conditions. Here, we report the development of a cost-effective and highly active nickel(0) nanoparticles catalyst for the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane and sodium borohydride. Nickel(0) nanoparticles confined in zeolite framework were prepared by using our previously established procedure and characterized by ICP-OES, XRD, TEM, HR-TEM, SEM, EDX, XPS, Raman spectroscopy and N 2 adsorption–desorption technique. All the results show that nickel(0) nanoparticles are formed within the framework of zeolite-Y. Nickel(0) nanoparticles confined in zeolite framework are highly active catalyst in the hydrolytic dehydrogenations of sodium borohydride and ammonia-borane. This catalyst is isolable, bottleable, redispersible and reusable. The report also includes the detailed kinetic study of the catalytic hydrolysis of both substrates, ammonia-borane and sodium borohydride depending on the catalyst concentration, substrate concentration, and temperature.

  • catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazine borane for chemical hydrogen storage highly efficient and fast hydrogen generation system at room temperature
    International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2011
    Co-Authors: Senem Karahan, Mehmet Zahmakiran, Saim Ozkar
    Abstract:

    Abstract There has been rapidly growing interest for materials suitable to store hydrogen in solid state for transportation of hydrogen that requires materials with high volumetric and gravimetric storage capacity. B-N compounds such as ammonia-triborane, ammonia-borane and amine-borane adducts are well suited for this purpose due to their light weight, high gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity and inclination for bearing protic (N-H) and hydridic (B-H) hydrogens. In addition to them, more recent study [26] has showed that hydrazine borane with a gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity of 15.4% wt needs to be considered as another B-N compound that can be used for the storage of hydrogen. Herein we report for the first time, metal catalyzed hydrolysis of hydrazine borane (N 2 H 4 BH 3 , HB) under air at room temperature. Among the catalyst systems tested, rhodium(III) chloride was found to provide the highest catalytic activity in this reaction. In the presence of rhodium(III) chloride, the aqueous solution of hydrazine borane undergoes fast hydrolysis to release nearly 3.0 equivalent of H 2 at room temperature with previously unprecedented H 2 generation rate TOF  =  12000  h −1 . More importantly, it was found that in the catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazine borane the reaction between hydrazine borane and water proceeds almost in stoichiometric proportion indicating that the efficient hydrogen generation can be achieved even from the highly concentrated solution of hydrazine borane or in the solid state when water added to the solid hydrazine borane. This finding is crucial especially for on-board application of the existing system. The work reported here also includes ( i ) finding the solubility of hydrazine borane plus its stability against self-hydrolysis in water, ( ii ) the definition of reaction stoichiometry and the identification of reaction products for the catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazine borane, ( iii ) the collection of wealthy kinetic data to demonstrate the effect of substrate and catalyst concentrations on the hydrogen generation rate and to determine the rate law for the catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazine borane, ( iv ) the investigation of the effect of temperature on the rate of hydrogen generation and determination of activation parameters ( E a , ΔH # , and ΔS # ) for the catalytic hydrolysis of hydrazine borane.

  • zeolite confined copper 0 nanoclusters as cost effective and reusable catalyst in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane
    International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2010
    Co-Authors: Mehmet Zahmakiran, Feyyaz Durap, Saim Ozkar
    Abstract:

    Abstract Herein we report the development of a cost-effective nanocluster catalyst for the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia-borane which is considered to be one among the new hydrogen storage materials. Zeolite confined copper(0) nanoclusters were prepared by the ion-exchange of Cu2+ ions with the extra framework Na+ ions in zeolite-Y followed by reduction of the Cu2+ ions within the cavities of zeolite with sodium borohydride in aqueous solution and characterized by HR-TEM, XRD, XPS, SEM, EDX, ICP-OES, Raman spectroscopy and N2 adsorption–desorption technique. Zeolite confined copper(0) nanoclusters are found to be active catalysts in the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane even at low temperatures (≤15 °C) and stable enough for being isolated as solid materials. They provide 1300 turnovers in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia–borane at room temperature. The average value of turnover frequency is 46.5 h−1 for the same reaction. More importantly, zeolite confined copper(0) nanoclusters were found to be isolable, bottleable and reusable catalysts in the hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia-borane; even at fifth run the complete release of hydrogen from the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane at room temperature is achieved. The work reported here also includes the full experimental details for the collection of a wealth of kinetic data to determine the activation energy and the effect of catalyst concentration on the rate for the catalytic hydrolysis of ammonia–borane.

  • highly diastereoselective addition of grignard reagents to n glyoxyloyl 2r0 Bornane 10 2 sultam comparative studies
    Polish Journal of Chemistry, 2002
    Co-Authors: K Raszplewicz, L Sikorska, Katarzyna Kiegiel, Janusz Jurczak
    Abstract:

    N-Glyoxyloyl-(2R)-Bornane-10,2-sultam (3), readily prepared from (2R)-Bornane-10,2-sultam (1), was used in the Grignard reaction with methylmagnesium bromide (4a), phenylmagnesium chloride (4b), benzylmagnesium chloride (4c), allylmagnesium chloride (4d), and vinylmagnesium bromide (4e). Reactions of 3 with Grignard reagents 4a-d led to the desired adducts 5 with predominance of the (14S)-diastereoisomer. The reaction of 3 with vinylmagnesium bromide (4e) failed to give the adduct of type 5. Stereochemical models for the reactions studied are proposed.

  • stereochemical course of the 4 2 cycloaddition of 1 methoxybuta 1 3 diene to n glyoxyloyl 2r Bornane 10 2 sultam the formal synthesis of compactin and mevinolin
    Tetrahedron-asymmetry, 1996
    Co-Authors: Janusz Jurczak, Tomasz Bauer, Christian Chapuis, Artur Jezewski, Janusz Kozak
    Abstract:

    Abstract The chiral heterodienophile N -glyoxyloyl-(2 R )-Bornane-10,2-sultam 2 , readily prepared from (2 R )-Bornane-10,2-sultam 1 , was used in noncatalyzed atmospheric and high-pressure as well as in [Eu(fod) 3 ]-catalyzed [4+2] cycloadditions with 1-methoxybuta-1,3-diene 3 . All the [4+2] cycloadditions studied led to diastereoisomeric mixtures of 6-substituted derivatives of 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran 4–7 . The extent of asymmetric induction in these reactions was established by 1 H NMR analysis and the absolute configuration of the thermodynamically stable products 5 and 7 by X-ray analysis, and independently by chemical correlation. Stereochemical models for both noncatalyzed and [Eu(fod) 3 ]-promoted reactions are proposed. The [4+2] cycloadduct 5 was then effectively transformed into (4 R )-hydroxy-(6S)-hydroxymethyltetrahydropyrone-2 12 , a key synthon for the lactone moiety of compactin 10 and mevinolin 11 .
