Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure discloses a method for preparing 2,5-dimethylphenol by selective catalytic conversion of lignin, relates to the technical field of chemistry, and includes the following steps: mixing lignin, a catalyst, and ethanol, and then carrying out a catalytic conversion reaction of lignin under the gaseous supercritical conditions of ethanol; and cooling the reaction product by quenching after the completion of reaction, and then subjecting it to separation and extraction to obtain 2,5-dimethylphenol. The catalyst comprises a modified sepiolite carrier, an active metal Mo, and auxiliary agents Zr and Fe. The process of the present disclosure is simple, and the prepared catalyst is a solid catalyst, which avoids problems of difficult recovery, serious environmental pollution and equipment corrosion caused by the use of homogeneous organic acid-base catalysts.
