- April 2025: Researchers developed a Yb-modified CuY catalyst that markedly improves anisole valorization. By loading copper onto NaY zeolite and optimizing Yb incorporation, the team enhanced both anisole conversion and guaiacol formation. Yb tuning increased Cu+ species and boosted hydroxyl radical generation from hydrogen peroxide, accelerating anisole transformation. The modification also created oxygen vacancies that strengthened radical adsorption and metal-oxo formation. Under optimized conditions, the Yb/CuY catalyst delivered 56.2% anisole conversion and 74.6% ortho-selectivity, surpassing previous catalytic systems.
Product Description
Anisole, which is also called methoxybenzene, is a type of organic compound. It is transparent and colorless when at room temperature and is known for its delightful smell reminiscent of anise. It is often produced using the Williamson ether synthesis by combining sodium phenoxide from phenol with methyl iodide, allowing for controlled and efficient manufacturing of the compound in industrial settings.
Anisole shows characteristics common in aromatic ethers, like stability and moderate reactivity that enable it to be used in diverse chemical reactions. It plays a crucial role in the chemical sector as a middleman in creating various chemicals. It is also involved in the pharmaceutical sector, being utilized in the production of various medications. It is also utilized in the flavor and fragrance sector to improve the aroma and flavor characteristics of different items and in scientific studies for creating more intricate molecular compositions through synthetic chemistry.
