Carbonylation of pentanediamine (PDA) is a green and effective route for the synthesis of pentamethylene dicarbamate (PDC), an important intermediate compound for the preparation of polyurethanes (PUs) and other chems. In this work, TiO2-101 and TiO2-110 catalysts, with preferential exposure of (101) and (110) facets, resp., were prepared and studied for the carbonylation of diamines with Et carbamate (EC) to give dicarbamates, e.g., EtO2C(CH2)7NHCO2Et and I. The catalysts were characterized by various techniques, including XRD, BET, SEM, TEM, XPS, NH3-TPD and in situ FTIR. The characterization results indicated that TiO2 catalysts with exposed (110) and (101) facets were synthesized successfully. The overall results suggested that the (101) facets on the TiO2 surface provide high amounts of surface Lewis acid sites that played a pivotal role in PDC formation, which gave a conversion and yield both up to 99% under optimized conditions. In situ FTIR spectroscopy clearly revealed that polyurea as an intermediate was formed in the reaction and subsequently converted to PDC catalyzed by the TiO2 catalyst. Furthermore, the DFT results showed that the conversion of polyurea to PDC over the (101) facets was more prone to occur than the (110) facets due to the lower reaction energy barrier. In addition, the TiO2-101 catalyst displayed excellent stability without an obvious activity decline after five cycles.
