Carbonylation Synthesis:A Green Chemical Route for Low-Carbon Utilization of Coal-Based Syngas
Synthesis of oxygenated organic compounds from syngas represents a key technological pathway for efficient syngas utilization.This review begins with a brief analysis of the characteristics of coal chemical processes,followed by an overview of the features and advantages of carbonylation technology.Carbonylation technology efficiently utilizes the carbon and oxygen resources in coal-based syngas,eliminating unnecessary"deoxygenation"steps and promoting the enhancement of"atom economy",i.e.,maximizing the conversion of every atom in the raw material molecules into the final product.This technology has emerged as a frontier research area driving the transformation of coal-based syngas resources into high-value-added products.The paper also highlights the technical characteristics and research progress of several important carbonylation reactions,aiming to provide devel-opment strategies and guidance for synthesizing high-value-added chemicals from syngas and for constructing an industrial chain for carbonylation synthesis based on coal chemical syngas.
