Kinetic studies on base-free hydrogenation of CO2 to formic acid using Ru-HT catalyst revealed significant impact of parameters such as catalyst amount and presence of water in enhancing reaction rate. The optimized conditions led to impressive turnover number and highlighted the effectiveness of water as a solvent in improving reaction kinetics.
Kinetic studies have been carried out for the base-free hydrogenation of CO2 to formic acid using a heterogeneous ruthenium-inserted hydrotalcite (Ru-HT) catalyst. An impressive turnover number (TON = 11 389) was achieved for formic acid under the optimized reaction conditions using a methanol : water mixture as the solvent (5 : 1, v/v) with 60 bar total pressure at 60 degrees C for 24 hours. The rates were determined directly in terms of the formation of formic acid with time. Kinetics were performed by carrying out experiments concerning the amount of catalyst, the individual partial pressures of CO2 and H-2, the total pressure, temperature, agitation speed, reaction volume and v/v ratio of the mixed solvent. The rate of formic acid formation was first order on the amount of catalyst and partial pressures of CO2 and H-2. The best reaction conditions achieved from the kinetic parametric optimization were: 100 mg catalyst, 30 bar pCO(2), 30 bar pH(2), 60 degrees C temperature, 800 rpm agitation speed and methanol-water (5 : 1, v/v) solvent. The computed activation parameters obtained from the temperature-dependent rate of formic acid formation were E-a = 34.5 +/- 2.5 kJ mol(-1), Delta H-# = 32 +/- 2.5 kJ mol(-1) and Delta S-# = -384 +/- 5 J deg(-1) mol(-1). The presence of water in the mixed solvent effectively enhanced the reaction rate, which is characteristically observed due to its molecular effect. Two mechanistic routes for CO2 hydrogenation to formic acid are proposed and discussed based on the kinetic and experimental observations. The studied parameters were found to be significantly effective to increase the rate of reaction appreciably.
