In this study, heterogeneous cyclization of sorbitol to isosorbide under basic condition was realized for the first time with a novel porous polymer-supported ionic liquid as catalyst. These polymer-supported ILs were synthesized through the suspension polymerization of 4-vinylbenzyl chloride and divinylbenzene, followed by a quaternization reaction. As compared to those of non-porous, the porous polymers had high specific surface area and large number of active sites. Consequently, they exhibited excellent catalytic activity in the cyclization of sorbitol with dimethylcarbonate (DMC) to isosorbide. As a result, a high conversion of sorbitol (99%) was achieved with 83% yield of isosorbide under optimized conditions. Importantly, the catalysts could be easily separated by decantation and reused for five times without obvious loss of catalytic activity.

The invention relates to a process for purifying a crude isosorbide, in which the crude isosorbide is melted and converted, by cooling, into a crude isosorbide melt suspension consisting of isosorbide crystals and residual melt, the amount by weight of impurities in the isosorbide crystals being less than the amount by weight of impurities in the residual melt, optionally a part of the residual melt is separated off mechanically from the crude isosorbide suspension, further the isosorbide crystals in the melt isosorbide suspension are purified from residual melt by washing with a washing isosorbide melt, the amount by weight of impurities in the washing isosorbide melt being less than the amount by weight of impurities in the residual melt.

The regio and diastereoselective direct mono or diamination of bio-based isohexides (isosorbide and isomannide) has been developed through borrowing hydrogen (BH) methodology using a cooperative catalysis between an iridium complex and a Br?nsted acid. The access to chiral amino-alcohol (NH2-OH) and diamine (NH2-NH2), interesting optically pure bio-based monomers, was also proposed using BH strategy as a sustainable route for their obtention.

Isosorbide is a versatile chemical intermediate for the production of a variety of drugs, chemicals, and polymers, and its efficient production from natural cellulose is of great significance. In this study, bifunctional catalysts based on niobium phosphates were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method and used for the direct conversion of cellulose to isosorbide under aqueous conditions. NH3-TPD analysis showed that a high acid content existed on the catalyst surface, and pyridine infrared spectroscopic analysis confirmed the presence of both Lewis acid and Br?nsted acid sites, both of which played an important role in the process of carbohydrate conversion. XRD and H2-TPR characterization determined the composition and the hydrogenation centers of the catalyst. An isosorbide yield of 47% could be obtained at 200 °C for 24 h under 3 MPa H2 pressure. The Ni/NbOPO4 bifunctional catalyst retains most of its activity after five consecutive runs with slightly decreased isosorbide yield of 44%. In addition, a possible reaction mechanism was proposed that the synergistic effect of surface acid sites and hydrogenation sites was favorable to enhancing the cascade dehydration and hydrogenation reactions during the conversion of cellulose to isosorbide. This study provides as an efficient strategy for the development of novel multifunctional heterogeneous catalysts for the one-pot valorisation of cellulose. This journal is
