Understanding the reaction at the molecular level is the key to rational design of better catalysts for propanediol synthesis, which is one of the major challenges for glycerol application in energy. In this work, extensive calculations based on periodic density functional theory were carried out to study thermodynamics of glycerol hydrogenolysis over binary model catalysts, including Cu/ZrO2 and Cu/MgO, with the focus to elucidate the competitive reaction pathways to produce the 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO) and 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO). Our results suggest that the reaction starts with glycerol dehydration on the metal oxide, followed by sequential hydrogenation over metal centers. Based on our explorations on the stabilities of adsorbed reactants, dehydrated intermediates and hydrogenated species along the reaction channels, the DFT calculations show that the 1,2-PDO formation will dominate in comparison to the 1,3-PDO from thermodynamic viewpoint. This is consistent with our experiments where the Cu catalysts seem to give the 1,2-PDO as a main product. The calculations and experiments also indicate that the Cu/MgO exhibits superior activities than Cu/ZrO2 for the hydrogenolysis of glycerol molecules. 关 键 词：化学 C-C 原理 方法 实验
