| Title: | Synthesis of alpha olefins : catalytic decarbonylation of carboxylic acids and Vegetable Oil Deodorizer Distillate (VODD) | Authors: | Lee, HW Yung, KF |
Issue Date: | Aug-2021 | Source: | Catalysts, Aug. 2021, v. 11, no. 8, 876 | Abstract: | Decarbonylation of carboxylic acids provides an effective protocol for producing alpha olefins; however, previous literature has focused on the palladium-bisphosphine catalysts and has only sporadically studied the palladium-monophosphine catalyst. To investigate the catalytic activity of the palladium-monophosphine catalyst on decarbonylation of carboxylic acids, new mono-phosphine ligands were synthesized (NP-1, NP-2, CP-1 and CP-2). By employing (1–3 mol%) palla-dium-naphthylphosphine catalysts, various carboxylic acids were converted into corresponding alpha alkenes with good yields and selectivity within a short period of time. Vegetable oil deodorizer distillate (VODD), which is a by-product from the vegetable oil refinery process, was found to be rich in free fatty acids and there is great interest in turning vegetable oil deodorizer distillate into value-added compounds. It is noteworthy that our catalytic system could be applied to convert vegetable oil deodorizer distillate (VODD) into diesel-like hydrocarbons in a good yield. | Keywords: | Carboxylic acid Decarbonylation Diesel-like hydrocarbons Palladium Vegetable oil deodorizer distillate |
