Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

This invention relates to a composition comprising an ion exchange resin with a ligand ionically bounded thereto and with the ligand coordinately bonded to a transition element.

2. The Prior Art

The use of heterogeneous catalysts over homogeneous catalysts has several advantages such as allowing the use of fixed beds, ease of separation of catalyst from the product and catalyst recovery and regeneration.

Traditionally, to produce heterogeneous catalysts from metals of the transition element series, these metals have been deposited on inert supports such as alumina or silica. More recently metal catalysts have been covalently attached to inert resin backbones by use of diphenylphosphine or other ligands which are attached directly to the polymer and coordinately bonded to the metal. Typical examples of this type are found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,998,864, issued Dec. 21, 1976, and in Pittman et al. Chemtech, p. 560-566, 1973.

In the composition of the invention, on the other hand, the metal is coordinately bound to a ligand and the ligand is ionically bound to an ion exchange resin. Some of the advantages of the materials of the invention are that the materials are relatively simple to prepare using commercially available compounds, the preparations involve no exotic conditions, and often times may be carried out in an aqueous solvent system and the resins may be easily stripped of metal and ligands for isolation of the metal species and regeneration of the catalyst. The resin based catalysts of this invention have unique selectivity-reactivity properties when compared to their homogeneous analogues.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The invention provides a method whereby metals can be attached to ion exchange resins via an intermediate ligand. Specifically, this invention is directed to the composition produced thereby which comprises (a) an ion exchange resin, (b) a metal selected from the transition group of elements and (c) a linking compound which has at least one moiety coordinately bound to the metal and further has at least one moiety which is ionically bonded to the ion exchange resins. The compositions of this invention are particularly useful as heterogeneous catalysts.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The ion exchange resins utilized in the composition of this invention are well known in the art and are readily available commercially. These are in the gel form or are macroporous and are either strongly acidic, weakly acidic, strongly basic, intermediate basic, weakly basic or mixed acid-base. The strong acid resins typically have base resins of cross-linked styrene, styrene-divinylbenzene, phenol-formaldehyde, benzene-formaldehyde, having functional sulfonic or phosphonic acid groups attached thereto. Also suitable are the fluorinated alkyl sulfonic acid resins containing the -CFSO.sub.3 H group as, for example, the NAFION.RTM. type resins supplied by E. I. Du Pont De Nemours. The weak acid resins are those with carboxylic acid groups and are typically acrylic acid derivatives such as, for example, those resins prepared by the copolymerization of methacrylic acid and divinylbenzene. Another weak acid resin is the chelating type which is a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer containing iminodiacetic acid functional groups which can serve as an anion exchanger at very low pH. The basic resins typically have base resins of cross-linked styrene, styrene-divinylbenzene, phenol-formaldehyde, benzene-formaldehyde, epoxypolyamine, phenolic-polyamine having functional amine, either primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary, or pyridinium groups attached thereto. Typical examples of suitable commercially supplied resins are given in Table I (reference: Bio-Rad Laboratories Catalogue, Chromatography, Electrophases, Immunochemistry and Membrane Filtration, Price List C, March 1977, p. 11).

The preferred resin choice for the composition of this invention will depend on the particular ionically bondable moiety utilized on the linking compound as well as on the particular use envisioned for the composition. For example, if the composition were used in liquid-phase catalysis, the composition and pH of the liquid would determine the preferred resin to be utilized.

The linking compound is hydrocarbyl, i.e., alkyl, aryl, or mixtures of aryl and alkyl components, which can be either cyclic or acylic or mixtures thereof containing from 1 to about 100 carbon atoms, preferably from about 3 to about 80 carbon atoms and has at least two moieties containing an atom other than carbon.

At least one moiety is in the ionic or ionizable form and is compatible with the exchange group on the ion exchange resin, i.e., when the exchange group is acidic the resin-compatible ionic moiety on the linking compound is basic-derived and vice versa. The acidic-derived resin compatible ion moiety is derived from carboxylic acid (RCO.sub.2.sup.-), phosphonic acid (RPO(OH)O.sup.-), phosphinic acid (R.sub.2 POO.sup.-), sulfenic acid (RSO.sup.-), sulfinic acid (RSOO.sup.-), sulfonic acid (RSO.sub.2 O.sup.-), boronic acid (RB(OH)O.sup.-), boronous acid (RBO.sup.-). The basic-derived resin compatible ion moiety is monohydrocarbyl ammonium (RN.sup.+ H.sub.3), dihydrocarbyl ammonium (R.sub.2 N.sup.+ H.sub.2), trihydrocarbyl ammonium (R.sub.3 N.sup.+ H), quarternary ammonium (R.sub.4 N.sup.+), pyridinium (RC.sub.5 H.sub.4 N.sup.+ R.sub.1), phosphonium (R.sub.4 P.sup.+), arsonium (R.sub.4 As.sup.+), and sulfonium (R.sub.3 S.sup.+).

The linking compound may have more than one of the ionic moieties. It may be polyfunctional, for example, in carboxylate ion, in phosphonate ion, in sulfonate ion, in quaternary ammonium ion, in pyridinium and the like. The polyfunctional group may be the same or different.

At least one other moiety of the linking compound has an atom capable of complexing with metals from the transition element series, and consists of trivalent nitrogen, trivalent phosphorus, trivalent arsenic, trivalent bismuth, and trivalent antimony.

The three valences of the complexing atoms may be satisfied by any organic radical; saturated or unsaturated aliphatic, and/or saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic and/or aromatic radicals. These radicals may contain any functional group such as carbonyl, nitro, and hydroxy groups as well as saturated and unsaturated alkyl groups and the radical may be bonded to the complexing atom directly through a carbon-complexing atom linkage or through an electronegative atom such as oxygen or sulfur.

It is also suitable for a simple organic radical to satisfy more than one of the valence of the complexing atom, thereby forming a heterocyclic compound with the trivalent complexing atom. For example, an alkylene radical may satisfy two of the valences thereby forming a cyclic compound. Another example would be the alkylene dioxy radical to form a cyclic compound where oxygen atoms link an alkylene radical to the complexing atom. In these two examples the third valence may be satisfied by any other organic radical.

The linking compound may have more than one of the metal-complexing moieties. It may be, for example, polydentate in phosphorus atom, e.g., it may be bi- or tridentate, having two or three phosphorus atoms. It may have mixed complexing atoms, e.g., a phosphorus and arsenic atom or two phosphorus atoms and one nitrogen atom, etc.

The trivalent nitrogen atom will be present as an amine, i.e., as a primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary amine or as pyridine or cyanide. The trivalent phosphorus will be present as phosphine (R.sub.3 P), phosphinite (ROPR.sub.2), phosphonite (RO).sub.2 PR and phosphite (RO.sub.3 P). Correspondingly, trivalent arsenic will be available as arsine, arsinite, arsonite and arsenite; trivalent bismuth as bismuthine, bismuthinite, bismuthonite and bismuthite; and trivalent antimony as stibine, stibinite, stibonite and stibite. The preferred complexing atoms are phosphorus and nitrogen. The tertiary amines, phosphines, arsines and stibines and bismuthines have a marked tendency to form nonionic complexes with metals.

When the linking compound is polydentate in an ionizable heteroatom, it is understood that there will be a statistical distribution of the ionized atoms upon quaternization or protonation. For example, if one mole of a linking compound which contains 3 amine groups is protonated with 2 moles of HCl, then some of the molecules of the linking compound will have 3 quaternized amine groups, some will have 2 and some will have 1, but on the average there will be 2 quaternized amino group per molecule. It is further understood from general principles of organic chemistry that unit charges resulting from quaternization and protonation can be distributed as partial charges over several heteroatoms in a linking compound molecule.

Thus the linking compound as reacted in the composition of this invention will have at least one protonized or quaternized heteroatom and at least one heteroatom complexed with a transition element metal. Suitable linking compounds utilized in making the composition of the invention include but are not limited to the following examples:

tris(dimethylamino)phosphine tris(diethylamine)phosphine tris(diisopropylamino)phosphine tris(methylethylamino)phosphine tris(p-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphine tris(p-diethylaminophenyl)phosphine tris(p-methylethylaminophenyl)phosphine tris(o-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphine tris(m-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphine tris(dimethylaminoethyl)phosphine tris(dimethylaminoethyl)phosphite ethylbis(diphenylphosphinoethyl)amine

Substitution of phosphinites, phosphonites, phosphites for the phosphine in the above compounds as well as arsines, arsinites, arsonites, arsenites, bismuthenes, bismuthinites, bismuthonites, bismuthites, stibines, stibinites, stibonites, stibites and amines produces linking compounds useful in preparing the compositions of this invention. Other suitable compounds are:

tris(4-N,N-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphine 2-(P,P-diphenylphosphino)benzoic acid tris(beta-aminoethyl)amine 2-chloronicotinic acid, and 2-carboxypyridine 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenyl piperazinium salt 2,2'-alkylarsino-1,1'-diphenylamine 2-(P,P-dicyclohexylphosphino)benzoic acid beta-(dicyclohexylphosphino)propionic acid 1,4-(P,P-diphenylphosphino)benzene 2-diphenylphosphino-3-carboxy-2-butene 2-(P,P-diphenylphosphino)benzene sulfonic acid 2-amino-s-triazine 1-diphenylphosphino-2-diphenylposphinoethane tris-(B-N,N-dimethylaminoethyl)phosphite tris(N,N-dimethylamino)phosphine bis-(B-diphenylphosphinoethyl)ethylamine 3-(dialkylphosphino)benzene phosphonic acid

The metals complexed with the linking compound are selected from the transition elements of the Periodic Table and preferably are selected from Groups IVB, VB, VIB, VIIB, VIII, IB and IIB, technetium excluded, i.e., preferred metals are:

The complexed metals can be in various oxidation states. See "Complexes of the Transition Metals with Phosphines, Arsines and Stibines", by G. Booth, Adv. Inorg. Nucl. Chem., 6, 1-69 (1964) for a comprehensive description of complexes. For example, the Booth reference cites the following oxidation states for metals complexed with phosphines.
