Description

Technical Field [0001] The present invention relates to a process for selective hydrogenation of hydroxymethyl furfural using ruthenium nanoparticle supported catalyst,

The present invention relates to a selective hydrogenation method of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) using a ruthenium nano-particle-supported catalyst, and more particularly to a method for selectively hydrogenating ruthenium nanoparticles in which ruthenium nanoparticles are supported on a functionalized porous polymer The present invention relates to a method for producing furandimethanol (FDM) in high yield by selectively hydrogenating hydroxymethyl furfural using a supported catalyst as a reaction catalyst.

Renewable energy, based on lignocellulosic or cellulosic biomass, is seen as a means for the sustainable production of chemicals and fuels as an alternative to non-renewable petroleum resources. Recently, due to the limited availability of petroleum resources and environmental problems caused by excessive use of petroleum resources, catalyst conversion methods for producing renewable energy from cellulose-based biomass or biomass derivatives have attracted great interest . Over the years, a variety of chemicals have been produced by the chemical or biological transformation of cellulosic biomass and biomass derivatives. For example, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) was produced from carbohydrate or cellulose in the presence of an acid catalyst, and the 5-hydroxymethyl furfural is a biomass-based It is classified as one of 10 compounds. U.S. Pat. No. 4,740,905, U.S.P. 8563756 and U.S.P. 8729281 disclose that ethyl levulinate (EL) is produced by selective conversion of HMF by two functional groups present in the HMF structure Ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF), 2,5-dihydroxymethylfuran (BHMF), 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF), C9-C15alkane, The use value of levulinic acid (LA), 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF), and 2,5-furandicaboxylic acid (FDCA) Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > biofuel < / RTI >

(2,5-bis (hydroxymethyl) furan, BHMF), 2,5-furandimethanol (FDM), 2 , 2,5-bis (hydroxymethyl) tetrahydrofuran, BHMTHF) and 2,5-dimethylfuran can be prepared. The furan dimethanol prepared from the hydrogenation reaction of the carbonyl group (-C═O) of the HMF can be used in various aspects such as the production of resin, polymer, and chemical fiber having various properties, and thus its potential is excellent. In addition, the furan dimethanol can be used as an intermediate compound in the synthesis of pharmaceutical compositions, crown ethers, and can be used in the production of 2,5-bis (hydroxymethyl) tetrahydrofuran. Due to the various applications and commercial importance of furan dime methanol as described above, there have been actively studied hydrogenation methods of HMF capable of selectively producing furan dmethanol from HMF using metal complexes and metal supported catalysts in various environments. The kind of product produced through the hydrogenation reaction of HMF is greatly influenced by the selectivity of the metal used as a catalyst in this reaction and the reaction environment conditions. For example, USP 3083236 discloses that furan dimethanol (FDM) having a purity of 90% can be prepared using copper chromium iron (Cu 2 Cr 2 O 5 ) as a catalyst in the hydrogenation reaction of HMF . However, the method of hydrogenating HMF using a copper chromium iron catalyst disclosed in the above prior art has a problem of low efficiency of 30 hours or more of reaction at a high temperature of 150 ° C or more. In addition, chromium, which is a heavy metal component contained in the copper chromium iron used as the catalyst, has a problem that harmful to the natural environment may occur when the hydrogenation method is carried out. A hydrogenation method using Raney-type metals (Cu, Co and Ni) as a catalyst has been disclosed as a hydrogenation method of HMF for improving the problems of the prior art ( Bull. Soc . Chim. Fr. , 128 (1991) 704] . However, in the case of the hydrogenation method of HMF using the Raney type metal catalyst, most of the produced products are 2,5-bis (hydroxymethyl) tetrahydrofuran (BHMTHF), and the production of furan dimethanol (FDM) The yield is as low as 27%. In addition, the Raney-type metal catalyst used as the catalyst has a problem of low self-ignitability and very low safety.

In order to improve the above problems, US Pat. No. 7,994,347, US Pat. No. 8,367,851 and US Pat. No. 5,054,194 disclose that nickel, cobalt, copper, palladium, ruthenium or platinum Discloses a hydrogenation method of HMF using a supported metal supported catalyst. It has been disclosed that furan dimethanol having a purity of 90 to 98% can be prepared by using a metal supported catalyst having platinum carried on a carbon carrier among the above-mentioned literatures. However, since platinum is expensive, . In addition, the remaining documents using metal supported catalysts containing nickel, cobalt, copper, ruthenium or palladium other than platinum include a problem that the yield of furan dimethanol (FDM) is very low.
