▼ Green chemistry principles have been applied to the enhancement of two industrial chemistry problems. An industrially used reaction to form alcohols from aldehydes and ketones, the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction, was improved by introducing a new catalyst Al(OtBu)₃. Due to the lower state of aggregation of this catalyst versus the conventional Al(OiPr)₃ catalyst, reduction rates were found to be faster in both pure iPrOH and mixed solvent systems for three model compounds: benzaldehyde, acetophenone, and a complex, chiral ketone, (S)-CMK. This allowed for the successful implementation of two important milestones; lowering the amount of catalyst needed necessary to complete the reactions (an economic benefit and lower waste) and the conversion from traditional batch reactions to continuous flow (a processing benefit) whereby reactions can be scaled-out rather than scaled-up. Another industrially important field of research that was focused on was CO₂ capture. High energy demands from current CO₂ capture methods such as aqueous amine solvents, specifically from coal-fired power plant flue gas, led to the development of non-aqueous reversible ionic liquids based on silylated amines. Structural modifications of the substitution around the silicon atom, the length of the alkyl chain bonding the silicon and amine, branching along the alkyl backbone, and investigating secondary and primary amines within this class of silylated amines were completed. These amines were reacted with CO₂ and the CO₂ capacity, the ionic liquid viscosity, reversal temperature and reaction enthalpy were all considered as a function of structure. In all cases the capacity was found to be not only greater than that of monethanolamine, an industrial standard, but higher than theoretical predictions through the formation of carbamic acid. Viscosity, reversal temperature, and reaction enthalpy were all found to be tunable through structure. These modifications gave significant insight into the necessary direction for optimization of these solvents as energy-efficient replacements of current CO₂ capture technology.

▼ Sustainable technologies are vital to reducing the environmental impact of chemical enterprises. Solvents are often seen as just a medium in which a reaction takes place; however they can also play a dominant role in the overall toxicity of a typical pharmaceutical/fine chemicals batch chemical operation. Further, careful solvent selection for a reaction may also lead to more facile separation and purification of products, thus reducing the overall cost of a chemical process.
This thesis presents an environmentally benign processing technique for sustainable biocatalytic reactions coupled with facile built-in separation. An organic aqueous tunable solvent (OATS) system allows access to a hydrophobic substrate which is transformed with a homogeneous enzymatic catalyst in a single liquid phase. Subsequent CO2 addition produces a biphasic mixture where the hydrophobic product partitions preferentially into the organic rich phase for separation while the hydrophilic enzyme catalyst partitions into the aqueous rich phase, where it is recyclable. Processing parameters in OATS systems are discussed and an overall product recovery of 80% is observed after six reaction cycles. Additionally, greater than 99% enantiomeric excess (ee) is shown for catalyzed hydrolysis of rac-1-phenylethyl acetate with Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL B) both before and after CO2-induced separation.

▼ Developing greener, more efficient, and less energy-intensive processes will lead the chemical industry into a more sustainable future. Gas-expanded liquids (GXLs) form a unique class of environmentally benign and tunable solvents that can be used in a variety of applications. Through the series of studies presented in this thesis, we have investigated both the properties and applications of GXLs. We have developed a more complete understanding of the interactions between the gas, the organic liquid, and solutes at the molecular level through kinetic and solvatochromic experiments. We have examined a Diels-Alder reaction and an SN2 reaction and have described the kinetic results in terms of intermolecular interactions and local composition enhancement. We have also demonstrated the use of Organic-Aqueous Tunable Solvents, a special case of GXLs, to recycle homogeneous hydroformylation catalysts. The results of this research can be used to guide future applications of GXLs as green reaction solvents.

▼ Sustainable development in chemical engineering offers technical, industrially relevant solutions to environmental and economic issues. This work focuses on three specific issues; improving solvent selection and reducing costly experimentation, improving catalyst recovery while reducing reaction time, and producing commercial viable biofuels by cost effective pretreatments and valuable side product extractions.
Novel solvent systems are a sustainable solution because they provide the ability to replace costly solvents with cheap, benign, and recyclable systems. Specifically, this work investigated the use of one novel solvent system, Gas Expanded Liquids (GXL).When a solvent is exposed to a gas in which it is miscible at modest pressures and temperatures, the liquid solvent becomes expanded, providing a unique tunable and reversible solvent with properties that can be much different then that of the solvent itself. If you apply this gas to a mixture of two liquids of a solid dissolved in a liquid phase, it can often provide a miscibility switch, aiding in separation, crystallization, and
recovery of products or catalysts. In this work several different applications for organic
solvents expanded with carbon dioxide were studied including miscibility switches for
catalyst recycle, pretreatment of biomass for improved bio-ethanol production, and
extraction of valuable chemicals from lignin waste in the pulp and paper industry. Solid
solubility models to improve solvent selection and predict unique solvent mixtures during
crystallization were also studied. The results reported here show promise for the use of
GXL novel solvent systems and solid solubility models in many sustainable applications.

▼ Nanoscale colloidal particles display fascinating electronic, optical and reinforcement properties as a consequence of their dimensions. Stable dispersions of nanoscale colloids find applications in drug delivery, biodiagnostics, photonic and electronic devices, and polymer nanocomposites. Most nanoparticles are unstable in dispersions and polymeric surfactants are added generally to improve dispersability and control self-assembly. However, the effect of polymeric modifiers on nanocolloid properties is poorly understood and design of modifiers is guided usually by empirical approaches. Monte Carlo simulations are used to gain a fundamental molecular-level understanding of the effect of modifiers properties on the thermodynamics and interaction forces of nanoscale colloidal particles. A novel method based on the expanded ensemble Monte Carlo technique has been developed for calculation of the chemical potential of colloidal particles in colloid-polymer mixtures (CPM). Using this method, the effect of molecular parameters like colloid diameter, polymer chain length, colloid-polymer interaction strength, and colloid and polymer concentrations, on the colloid chemical potential is investigated for both hard-sphere and attractive Lennard-Jones CPM. The presence of short-chain polymeric modifiers reduces the colloid chemical potential in attractive as well as athermal systems. In attractive CPM, there is a strong correlation between polymer adsorption and colloid chemical potential, as both show a similar dependence on the polymer molecular weight. Based on the simulation results, simple scaling relationships are proposed that capture the functional dependence of the thermodynamic properties on the molecular parameters. The polymer-induced interaction forces between the nanoparticles have been calculated as a function of the above parameters for freely-adsorbing and end-grafted homopolymer modifiers. The polymer-induced force profiles are used to identify design criteria for effective modifiers. Adsorbing modifiers give rise to attractive interactions between the nanoparticles over the whole parameter range explored in this study. Grafted surface modifiers lead to attraction or repulsion based on the polymer chain length and grafting density. The polymer-induced attraction in both adsorbing and grafted modifiers is attributed primarily to polymer intersegmental interactions and bridging. The location of the thermodynamic minimum corresponding to the equilibrium particle spacing in nanoparticle-polymer mixtures can be controlled by tuning the modifier properties.

▼ As feature sizes in semiconductor devices become smaller and newer materials are incorporated, current methods for photoresist and post plasma etch residue removal face several challenges. A cleaning process should be environmentally benign, compatible with dielectric materials and copper, and provide residue removal from narrow and high aspect ratio features. In this work, sub-critical CO2 based mixtures have been developed to remove the etch residues; these mixtures satisfy the above requirements and can potentially replace the two step residue removal process currently used in the integrated circuit (IC) industry.
Based on the chemical nature of the residue being removed, additives or co-solvents to CO2 have been identified that can remove the residues without damaging the dielectric layers. Using the phase behavior of these additives as a guide, the composition of the co-solvent was altered to achieve a single liquid phase at moderate pressures without compromising cleaning ability. The extent of residue removal has been analyzed primarily by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Various techniques such as attenuated total reflection - Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, angle-resolved XPS (ARXPS), and interferometry were used to probe the interaction of cleaning fluids with residues. Model films of photoresists and plasma deposited residues were used to assist in understanding the mechanism of residue removal. From these studies, it was concluded that residue removal takes place primarily by attack of the interface between the residue and the substrate; a solvent rinse then lifts these residues from the wafer. It has been shown that transport of the additives to the interface is enhanced in the presence of CO2. From positronium annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS) studies on a porous dielectric film, it has been shown that these high pressure fluids do not cause significant changes to the pore sizes or the bonding structure of the film. Hence, this method can be used to remove post etch residues from low-k dielectric films.

▼ Gas-expanded liquids (GXLs) are a new and benign class of pressure-tunable liquid solvents which show tremendous promise as the next sustainable processing medium. In order to realize the potential of GXLs fully, it is necessary to elucidate their cybotactic region and gain an understanding of where properties are different in the bulk and micro-scales and how local structure and order affect both reactions and separations. This work explores the cybotactic region of GXLs and probes the existence and implications of those differences.
This study is started by exploring the cybotactic region of ambient liquid mixtures. Thermodynamic models based on intermolecular forces are used to predict the solubility of multi-functional solids in a variety of solvent mixtures. While this part does not lend any insight into GXLs directly, it acts as a stepping stone in both understanding the intermolecular forces that govern the cybotactic region and by opening the gateway to studying solid solubility in GXLs.
The rest of the study focuses on the differences between bulk and local properties of GXLs. Different probes of polarity in the cybotactic region are compared and the solute dependence of the local structure is explored. Bulk transport properties are measured with different probes in an effort to see if molecular interactions play a role in governing diffusion processes in GXLs.
