The invention discloses a catalyst comprising a silica support, a modifier metal and a catalytic alkali metal. The silica support has a multimodal pore size distribution comprising a mesoporous pore size distribution having an average pore size in the range 2 to 50 nm and a pore volume of said mesopores of at least 0.1 cm3/g, and a macroporous pore size distribution having an average pore size of more than 50 nm and a pore volume of said macropores of at least 0.1 cm3/g. The level of catalytic alkali metal on the silica support is at least 2 mol%. The modifier metal is selected from Mg, B, Al, Ti, Zr and Hf. The invention also discloses a method of producing the catalyst, a method of producing an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid or ester in the presence of the catalyst, and a process for preparing an ethylenically unsaturated acid or ester in the presence of the catalyst.

Supported palladium and palladium alloy were proved to be active catalysts for the oxidative esterification reaction of methacrolein with methonal to methyl methacrylate. Here we synthesized two types of structurally supported palladium alloy catalysts with ordered or disordered Pd3Pb intermetallic crystals by impregnation-reduction method as well as high temperature heat treatment. Importantly, the catalyst with disordered Pd3Pb crystals had 89% conversion for methylacrolein and 79% selectivity for methyl methacrylate, showing obvious higher activity than the catalyst with ordered Pd3Pb crystals. The morphology, metal arrangement and electron effect of the catalyst were analyzed by XRD, TEM and XPS. It was confirmed that more active sites and strong electron transfer between metals were the reasons for the excellent performance of the disordered catalyst. This study provides theoretical guidance for the further study of Pd-based catalysts for the oxidative esterification of methacrolein to methyl methacrylate.

Shifting from petrochemical feedstocks to renewable resources can address some of the environmental issues associated with petrochemical extraction and make plastics production sustainable. Therefore, there is a growing interest in selective methods for transforming abundant renewable feedstocks into monomers suitable for polymer production. Reported herein are one-pot catalytic systems, that are active, productive, and selective under mild conditions for the synthesis of copolymers from renewable materials. Each system allows for anhydride formation, alcohol acylation and/or acid esterification, as well as polymerization of the formed (meth)acrylates, providing direct access to a new library of unique poly(meth)acrylates.
