Ce0.6Zr0.4O2 supported transition metal (Me = Ni, Cu, Co, and Mo) catalysts have been investigated to screen for the catalytic activity and selectivity for deoxygenation reaction of oleic acid. Me - Ce0.6Zr0.4O2 catalysts were prepared by a co-precipitation method. Ni - Ce0.6Zr0.4O2 catalyst exhibited much higher oleic acid conversion, selectivity for C9 to C17 compounds, and oxygen removal efficiency than the others. This is mainly ascribed to the presence of free Ni species, synergy effects between Ni and Ce0.6Zr0.4O2, and the highest BET surface area.

The nonheme diiron enzyme cyanobacterial aldehyde deformylating oxygenase, cADO, catalyzes the highly unusual deformylation of aliphatic aldehydes to alkanes and formate. We have determined crystal structures for the enzyme with a long-chain water-soluble aldehyde and medium-chain carboxylic acid bound to the active site. These structures delineate a hydrophobic channel that connects the solvent with the deeply buried active site and reveal a mode of substrate binding that is different from previously determined structures with long-chain fatty acids bound. The structures also identify a water channel leading to the active site that could facilitate the entry of protons required in the reaction. NMR studies examining 1-[13C]-octanal binding to cADO indicate that the enzyme binds the aldehyde form rather than the hydrated form. Lastly, the fortuitous cocrystallization of the metal-free form of the protein with aldehyde bound has revealed protein conformation changes that are involved in binding iron.

The kinetics of liquid-phase decarbonylation of stearic acid in n-dodecane on γ-Al2O3 supported nickel sulfide catalyst promoted with silver was experimentally studied at 350 °C. The parameters of the reaction steps were determined and a structural kinetic model was developed. The model was compared with an earlier developed kinetic model for the unpromoted catalyst. It was suggested that an increased reaction selectivity in the presence of silver promoted catalyst was caused by a change in the composition of the adsorption complexes formed by the active sites of the catalyst. This change in the composition of the complexes is probably associated with an increase in the average size of the surface active particles of the catalyst.

Abstract: The effect of active component content on the catalytic activity of supported sulfide catalysts in the synthesis of C17 olefins from stearic acid has been studied. It has been shown that an increase in the nickel content leads to a decrease in the catalyst activity; in addition, there is a negative correlation between the activity and the fraction of large particles on the support surface. The highest heptadecene selectivity (50–60%) is observed for alumina-supported catalysts owing to the higher degree of dispersion of the active component.

Ni-based catalysts are easy deactivated in bio-lipids deoxygenation due to metal aggregation and Ni leaching. They also suffer from the hydrocracking of C–C bonds due to strong acidity at high reaction temperature (≥ 300 ℃). Herein, a series of Ni/CeO2-Al2O3 catalysts with different Ce/Al ratio were prepared by one-pot sol-gel method. The characteristic results showed that an appropriate addition of Ce both increase the catalytic activity and stability in bio-lipids deoxygenation. The oxygen vacancies formed by Ce introduction weaken the strong interaction of Ni-Al, thus improving Ni sites dispersion. Additional, Ce-addition in NiCeAl system increases weak and medium acidity and decreases strong acidity, preventing the C–C bond cleavage of hydrocarbon. As the result, the Ni/CeAl-3.0 catalyst afforded a 97.1 % n-C17 yield at 99.9 % MO conversion under 2.5 MPa H2 at 300 ℃ for 6 h. Minor C15-16 alkanes (17 yield). After simple regeneration, n-C17 yield was recovered to 95 %. Furthermore, non-edible bio-lipids (JO and WCO) can be converted to C13-18 alkanes with 95.2 % and 93.8 % yields, respectively.

Photodecarboxylase from Chlorella variabillis (CvFAP) is one of the three known light-activated enzymes that catalyzes the decarboxylation of fatty acids into the corresponding C1-shortened alkanes. Although the substrate scope of CvFAP has been altered by protein engineering and decoy molecules, it is still limited to mono-fatty acids. Our studies demonstrate for the first time that long chain dicarboxylic acids can be converted by CvFAP. Notably, the conversion of dicarboxylic acids to alkanes still represents a chemically very challenging reaction. Herein, the light-driven enzymatic decarboxylation of dicarboxylic acids to the corresponding (C2-shortened) alkanes using CvFAP is described. A series of dicarboxylic acids is decarboxylated into alkanes in good yields by means of this approach, even for the preparative scales. Reaction pathway studies show that mono-fatty acids are formed as the intermediate products before the final release of C2-shortened alkanes. In addition, the thermostability, storage stability, and recyclability of CvFAP for decarboxylation of dicarboxylic acids are well evaluated. These results represent an advancement over the current state-of-the-art.
