Catalytic borrowing hydrogen reaction is a very attractive transformation in the field of Calkylation reaction. In this work, a new Zr (Zirconium)-containing coordination polymer containing unsymmetric indolyl dicarboxylic acid 1-(carboxymethyl)-1H-indole-5-carboxylic acid (H 2 CIA) was synthesized by the way of a solvothermal synthetic route and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Nitrogen adsorption-desorption, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectronic spectroscopy (XPS). The coordination polymer Zr-CIA was employed as the catalyst for C-alkylation of acetophenone derivatives in the presence of benzyl alcohol. In addition, Zr-CIA catalyst was also observed to be effective in the reaction of alcohols with alcohols and high yields of alkylation products were achieved. Mechanism investigations were also conducted to better understand the catalysts and transformations. Meanwhile, the Zr-CIA could be reused at least five times without a notable decrease in activity and selectivity.
Rational ligand design is crucial for achieving widespread applications of coordination polymers. The preparation, structural characterisation, and catalytic applications of zirconium (IV) coordination polymer (Zr-IDA), which was derived from 1-(carboxymethyl)-1H-indazole-5-carboxylic acid are reported. The Zr-IDA catalyst contains porous and highly crystalline particles with a quasi-spherical morphology around 100 nm in size, and Zr was coordinated with both O and N as shown by FT-IR and XPS measurements. Importantly, the Zr-IDA catalyst shows great activity, selectivity and stability in the oxidative coupling of benzyl cyanides with tert-butyl hydroperoxide to afford tertbutyl peresters, and the dehydrogenation cyclization of ophenylenediamines with aromatic alcohols to afford 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives. Mechanistic investigations were carried out to study these reactions and the developed catalytic system in more detail.[a] Dr.
In order to improve the oil displacement effect of alkali/surfactant/polymer (ASP) solution in low-permeability oil layers, Daqing Oilfield has proposed a separate injection technology. The objective of separate injection technology is to reduce the viscosity of ASP solution through a different medium injection tool and increase the injection amount of ASP solution in low permeability oil layer, thus improving the oil displacement effect. In order to study the effect of the different medium injection tool on ASP solution, SEM is used to observe the changes in molecular micromorphology before and after the ASP solution flows through the tool. Then, the influence of the tool on viscosity and the first normal stress difference of the solution are studied through static shear experiments. Finally, the storage and loss modulus of the solution are measured through dynamic mechanical experiments and the relaxation time and zero shear viscosity of the solution are verified and compared. The results show that molecular chains are obviously broken and the grid structure is destroyed after the ASP solution is acted on by the different medium injection tool. The viscosity and elasticity of ASP solution decrease, and the influence degree of the different medium injection tool on viscosity is greater than elasticity. The results of the steady shear experiment and dynamic mechanics experiment are consistent. Therefore, the different medium injection tool can achieve the purpose of use, which is conducive to the injection of displacement fluid into low-permeability oil layers and enhance the recovery ratio.
In order to solve the problem of the low production degree of oil layers caused by an excessively large permeability difference between layers during polymer flooding, we propose partial pressure injection technology using a partial pressure tool. The partial pressure tool controls the injection pressure of a polymer solution through a throttling effect to improve the oil displacement effect in high- and low-permeability reservoirs. In order to analyze the influence of the partial pressure tool on the rheological property of the polymer solution, a physical model of the tool is established, the rheological equation of the polymer solution in the partial pressure tool is established according to force balance analysis, the transition velocity equation for the polymer solution is established based on the concept of stability factor, and the influence of varying the structural parameters of the partial pressure tool on the rheological property of the polymer solution is analyzed. The results show that the pressure drop of the polymer solution increases with the decrease of the front groove angle of the partial pressure tool (from 60° to 30°), reaching a maximum of 1.77 MPa at a front groove angle of 30°. Additionally, the pressure drop of the polymer solution increases with the decrease of the outer cylinder radius (from 25 to 24 mm), reaching a maximum of 1.32 MPa at a radius of 24 mm. However, the apparent viscosity of the polymer solution before and after flowing through the partial pressure tool does not change for any of the studied parameters. These research results are of great significance to research on partial pressure injection technology and enhanced oil recovery.
In order to solve the problem of reservoir heterogeneity in the process of oil displacement, Daqing oilfield has proposed a partial pressure injection technology (using partial pressure tools). The partial pressure tool can improve the overall oil displacement effect by reducing the pressure of the displacement agent and adjusting the injection amount of the displacement agent in the high‐permeability oil layer. In order to study the effect of the partial pressure tool on the polymer solution, the flow characteristics of the polymer solution in the partial pressure tool were studied by finite element analysis, and the results of the numerical simulation were compared and verified by laboratory experiments. Then, the optimal structural parameters of the partial pressure tool were selected by orthogonal experiments. Finally, field tests were carried out to verify the effectiveness of the partial pressure tool. The results show that when the flow rate is 10 m3/d, the pressure drop of the polymer solution reaches 6.08 × 105 Pa and the viscosity loss rate reaches 6.69%, while the physical parameters of the solution change periodically under the action of the partial pressure tool. At a low flow rate, the results of the laboratory experiment and numerical simulation fit well, and the optimal structural parameters of the partial pressure tool are selected. Field tests show that the oil recovery is increased by 2.54% after using partial pressure tools. The research results are of great significance to the study of resolving interlayer conflicts and enhancing oil recovery.
