Selective hydrogenation of aromatic amines,especially chemicals such as aniline and bis(4-aminocyclohexyl)methane for non-yellowing polyurethane,is of particular interests due to the extensive applications.To conquer the existing difficulties in selective hydrogenation,the Ru0-Ruδ+/CeO2 catalyst with solid frustrated Lewis pairs was developed for aromatic amines hydrogenation with excellent activity and selectivity under relative milder conditions.The morphology,electronic and chemical properties,especially the Ru0-Ruδ+ clusters and reducible ceria were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD),transmission electron microscopy (TEM),scanning electronic microscopy (SEM),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS),CO2 temperature programmed desorption (CO2-TPD),H2 temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR),H2 diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (H2-DRIFT),Raman,etc.The 2％ Ru/CeO2 catalyst exhibited good conversion of 95％ and selectivity greater than 99％ toward cyclohexylamine.The volcano curve describing the activity and Ru state was found.Owning to the “acidic site isolation” by surrounding alkaline sites,condensation between the neighboring amine molecules could be effectively suppressed.The catalyst also showed good stability and applicability for other aromatic amines and heteroarenes containing different functional groups.
