Diels–Alder Conversion of Acrylic Acid and 2,5‐Dimethylfuran to para‐Xylene Over Heterogeneous Bi‐BTC Metal‐Organic Framework Catalysts Under Mild Conditions

The heterogeneous metal‐organic framework Bi‐BTC successfully catalyzed the synthesis of para‐xylene from bio‐based 2,5‐dimethylfuran and acrylic acid in a promising yield (92 %), under relatively mild conditions (160 °C, 10 bar), and with a low reaction‐energy barrier (47.3 kJ mol−1). The proposed...

Description
Summary:The heterogeneous metal‐organic framework Bi‐BTC successfully catalyzed the synthesis of para‐xylene from bio‐based 2,5‐dimethylfuran and acrylic acid in a promising yield (92 %), under relatively mild conditions (160 °C, 10 bar), and with a low reaction‐energy barrier (47.3 kJ mol−1). The proposed reaction strategy also demonstrates a remarkable versatility for furan derivatives such as furan and 2‐methylfuran. The heterogeneous metal‐organic framework Bi‐BTC can catalyze the conversion of bio‐based 2,5‐dimethylfuran and acrylic acid into para‐xylene with a promising yield (92 %) under relatively mild conditions (160 °C, 10 bar).
