摘要: Abstract Acetic acid has been generated directly from synthesis gas ( CO H 2 ) in up to 95 wt% selectivity and 97% carbon efficiency using a RuCoI Bu 4 PBr “melt” catalyst combination. The critical roles of each the ruthenium, cobalt iodide components achieving maximum HOAc have identified. C1-oxygenate formation is only observed presence ruthenium carbonyls; [Ru(CO)3I3]− here dominant species. Controlled quantities ensure that initially formed MeOH rapidly converted more reactive methyl iodide. Subsequent cobalt-catalyzed carbonylation acetic may be preparatively attractive (>80% selectivity) relative competing syntheses where [Co(CO)4]− concentration maximized; is, Co/Ru ratio > 1, syngas feedstock rich initial iodide/cobalt ratios are close unity. Formation cobalt-iodide species significant concentrations appears an inhibiting step this synthesis.
