Polyoxometalate@Periodic mesoporous organosilicas as active materials for oxida...
Ribeiro, Susana; Almeida, Pedro L.; Pires, João; De Castro, Baltazar; Balula, SaleteNovel material catalysts based in the active zinc-substituted polyoxotungstate ([PW11Zn(H2O)(39)](5-), abbreviated as PW11Zn) were efficiently used in the oxidative desulfurization of real and model diesels. These active catalytic center was strategically immobilized in a less hydrophilic periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs), containing ethane-bridge (PMOE) and benzene-bridge (PMOB) walls, functionalized wi...
Large-pore silica spheres as support for samarium-coordinated undecamolybdophos...
Mirante, Fátima; Alves, Ana C.; Julião, Diana; Almeida, Pedro L.; Gago, S.; Valença, Rita; Ribeiro, Jorge; De Castro, Baltazar; Granadeiro, CarlosA novel composite has been prepared through the immobilization of the Keggin sandwich-type [Sm (PMo11O39)(2)](11-) anion (SmPOM) on large-pore silica spheres previously functionalized with trimethylammonium groups (TMA). The resulting SmPOM@TMA-LPMS material has been evaluated as heterogeneous catalyst in a biphasic desulfurization 1:1 diesel/extraction solvent system using H2O2 as oxidant. Preliminary experime...
Oxidative desulfurization strategies using Keggin-type polyoxometalate catalyst...
Ribeiro, Susana; Granadeiro, Carlos; Almeida, Pedro L.; Pires, João; Capel-Sanchez, Maria C.; Campos-Martin, J. M.; Gago, S.; De Castro, BaltazarStrategic polyoxometalate Keggin-type structural modification was performed to increase the oxidative catalytic performance to desulfurize model and real diesels. The most active lacunar structure [PW11O39](7-) (PW11) showed to complete desulfurize a simulated diesel after 60 min at 70 degrees C. Its application as homogeneous catalyst using a biphasic system 1: 1 diesel/acetonitrile needed to use an excess of ...
Effective zinc-substituted keggin composite to catalyze the removal of sulfur f...
Ribeiro, Susana; Granadeiro, Carlos; Almeida, Pedro L.; Pires, João; Valença, Rita; Campos-Martin, J. M.; Ribeiro, Jorge C.; De Castro, BaltazarThe Keggin phosphotungstate (PW12) and its zinc derivative (PW11Zn) were tested as oxidative catalysts for desulfurization processes using simulated and real diesels. These compounds were used as homogeneous catalysts, while the corresponding SBA-15 composites were used as heterogeneous catalysts. The comparison of their catalytic performance demonstrated that the zinc-substituted polyoxometalate is more efficien...
Efficient heterogeneous polyoxometalate-hybrid catalysts for the oxidative desu...
Mirante, Fátima; Dias, Luís; Silva, Mariana; Ribeiro, Susana; Corvo, Marta C.; De Castro, Baltazar; Granadeiro, Carlos; Balula, SaleteThe heterogenization of the highly active monovacant polyoxotungstate ([PW11O39](7-), abbreviated as PW11) was achieved by preparing the corresponding long chain quaternary ammonium salt (ODA(7)PW(11), ODA = CH3(CH2)(17)(CH3)(3)N). The complete cation exchange confers total heterogeneity to the monovacant catalyst while keeping its oxidative catalytic activity. In fact, the heterogeneous catalyst allowed for th...
Desulfurization process conciliating heterogeneous oxidation and liquid extract...
Ribeiro, Susana O.; Nogueira, Lucie S.; Gago, Sandra; Almeida, Pedro L.; Corvo, Marta C.; De Castro, Baltazar; Granadeiro, Carlos; Balula, SaleteThe present work presents a strategic oxidative desulfurization system able to efficiently operate under sustainable conditions, i.e. using an eco-friendly oxidant and without the need of extractive organic solvents. The catalytic performance of Eu(PW11O39)2@aptesSBA-15 was evaluated for the oxidative desulfurization of a multicomponent model diesel using a solvent-free or biphasic systems. The results reveal i...
A novel red emitting material based on polyoxometalate@periodic mesoporous orga...
Granadeiro, Carlos; Ribeiro, Susana; Kaczmarek, Anna M.; Cunha-Silva, Luis; Almeida, Pedro L.; Gago, Sandra; Van Deun, Rik; De Castro, BaltazarThe first lanthanopolyoxometalate-supported bifunctional periodic mesoporous organosilica (BPMO) composite is here reported. The incorporation of decatunsgstoeuropate anions ([Eu(W5O18)(2)](9-)) within the porous channels of an ethylene-bridged TIVIAPS-functionalized BPMO produced a luminescent material exhibiting a strong red emission under UV irradiation. Photoluminescence studies showed an efficient energy t...
Novel 3-hydroxy-4-pyridinonato oxidovanadium(IV) complexes to investigate struc...
Rangel, Maria; João Amorim, M.; Nunes, Ana; Leite, Andreia; Pereira, Eulalia; De Castro, Baltazar; Silva, Carla Sousa e; Yoshikawa, YutakaA previous evaluation of the insulin-like activity of three 3-hydroxy-4-pyridinonato oxidovanadium(IV) complexes raised questions about structure/activity relationships, namely the influence of the hydrophilic/lipophilic balance of the complex and the capacity of the ligand to stabilize the +4 oxidation state of vanadium ion, on achieving an positive effect. To address these questions, we synthesized six new ox...
