Abstract

Mini review summarizes the emerging trends for the synthesis of adipic acid (AA) from metal nano catalysts which is a favourable catalysts for the title reaction. Countless steps are involved with catalysts will reduce the production of by-products and effluents produced in the traditional process. “Catalysis is intended for the protection of environment and quality of life”. Innumerable catalysts have been established Co3O4, Co/SiO2, Co/TiO2, Co-ZSM-5, MCM-Ti, TS-1, Co-ZSM, CoAlPO-11, Fe AlPO11/3, CoSiO2, Co/MgO. The catalysts crops of 1.3–6 % yield with a 98.7 % selectivity. Through the discovery and the vast applications of nanotechnology, a protocol from catalytic community to develop new CNT catalysts for adipic acid synthesis which is one of the most important commercial available aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, it has enormous industrial application in the manufacture of nylon-6, nylon-66. The reaction conditions, parameter, metal loading, ratio of metal, pressure will display key role in determining a selective catalysts for adipic acid synthesis. In the age of nano science CNT catalysts will play a role in replacing old traditional catalysts which will bring a new change in catalytic science defined as “Age of Nano- Science/Nano-Catalysis”. It is already renovating the science for the synthesis of AA with Nano-Catalysts i.e. CNT with metals. Through the expected impact brought by nanotechnology on new material, new characteristics and new devices, new applications for the synthesis of adipic acid is required to avoid pollution in main conventional process and established precision measurement technologies, the top priority task for the technically advanced countries is to convert the characteristic of nanotechnology into concrete economical effectiveness in practical application for the manufacture of AA and many more value added products which are useful in domestic purpose.
