Insights into the HDS/HYDO selectivity with considering stacking effect of Co-MoS2 catalysts by combined DFT and microkinetic method was written by Zheng, Meng;Zhao, Liang;Cao, Liyuan;Zhang, Yuhao;Gao, Jinsen;Xu, Chunming. And the article was included in Fuel in 2021.Application In Synthesis of 2,5-Dimethylthiophene The following contents are mentioned in the article:
To investigate the desulfurization/olefin hydrogenation (HDS/HYDO) selectivity for thiophenic compounds, the adsorptions and reactions of thiophenic compounds including 2-methythiophene (2-MT), 3-methylthiophene (3-MT), 2,5-dimethylthiophene (2,5-DMT), 3,4-dimethylthiophene (3,4-DMT), and benzothiophene (BT) are calculated based on d. functional theory (DFT). The ionization energy is found linearly related to the adsorption energy which could prove that the thiophenic compounds are NOT sterically hindered by stacking layers of Co-MoS2 catalysts, therefore the monolayer Co-MoS2 catalysts could be reasonably applied to study thiophenic compounds HDS process. Both the results of adsorption energies and Gibbs free energy variations suggest that there are stronger adsorptions for thiophenic compounds than 1-hexene. Microkinetic studies considering the whole HDS process declare: (1) the sulfur vacancy over S edge of Co-MoS2 catalysts also has high HDS/HYDO selectivity for thiophenic compounds and 1-hexene; (2) the DDS pathways are more feasible than HYD pathways for thiophenic compounds; (3) the reactivity is determined as T/2-MT/3-MT > 2,5-DMT/3,4-DMT/BT. Hence, the comprehensive investigation help to deeply understand the performance of the sulfur vacancy over the S edge of Co-MoS2 catalysts in the actual situation, which has significance to design the high HDS/HYDO selectivity catalysts. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 2,5-Dimethylthiophene (cas: 638-02-8Application In Synthesis of 2,5-Dimethylthiophene).
2,5-Dimethylthiophene (cas: 638-02-8) belongs to benzothiophene derivatives. Benzothiophene is used as starting material for the synthesis of bioactive molecules. The core structure is a part of various pharmaceutical substances and natural products. It is found within the chemical structures of pharmaceutical drugs such as raloxifene, zileuton, sertaconazole, and also BTCP.Application In Synthesis of 2,5-Dimethylthiophene
