The CO hydrogenation in liquid-phase was carried out using a set catalyst composed of Raney-Ni and CH3ONa in an autoclave of 234 ml under the reaction condition of 5 MPa, 423 K and 2 h. A high productivity (CO conversion of 92.4% with methanol selectivity of 99.8%) was achieved by eliminating the water after leaching of the Raney-Ni catalyst and by using CH3ONa rather than CH3CH2ONa. Ni(CO)4was observed in the liquid-phase after the reaction under the condition of high CO content (CO/H2>2). However, the formation of Ni(CO)4was not observed, when stoichiometric gas ratio (H2/CO=2) was used with Raney-Ni and CH3ONa at 423 K, 5 MPa, and 2 h. Carbonylation of CH3OH (CH3ONa catalysis) seems to be faster than the carbonylation of Raney-Ni to Ni(CO)4under these conditions. Hydrogenolysis of methyl formate (MeF) on the Raney-Ni yielded both methanol and methane at 443 K. However, the by-product methane was never obtained when using Raney-Ni with CH3ONa under the stoichiometric gas ratio (H2/CO=2) at 423 K, 5 MPa, and 2 h. The essential pathway must be the carbonylation of methanol to MeF with the CH3ONa catalyst followed by the hydrogenolysis of MeF to methanol with the Raney-Ni; however, the synergy effect between Raney-Ni and CH3ONa are suggested in the mechanism.
