Transfer hydrogenation of cellulose to sugar alcohols over supported ruthenium catalysts.

چکیده
Ru/C catalysts are active for the conversion of cellulose using 2-propanol or H(2) of 0.8 MPa as sources of hydrogen, whereas the Ru/Al(2)O(3) catalyst is inactive in both reactions, indicating that the Ru/C catalysts are remarkably effective for the cellulose conversion.

Comparative study of different catalysts for the direct conversion of cellulose to sorbitol
The catalytic conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to obtain high added value compounds and fuels is a rapidly developing field. Given the abundance of this renewable raw material and its reduced impact on the food chain, it is an attractive source for obtaining chemicals or fuels in the context of a sustainable economy. In this work, bi-functional catalysts were developed that were capable of...
متن کاملA modular design of ruthenium catalysts with diamine and BINOL-derived phosphinite ligands that are enantiomerically-matched for the effective asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of simple ketones.
A method is reported for making a potentially very wide series of ruthenium hydrido chloro complexes with diamine and readily-prepared diphosphinite ligand modules as precatalysts for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of simple ketones to give chiral alcohols in good yield and enantioselectivity.
متن کاملChiral ferrocenyl diphosphines for asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone
The synthesis of new optically pure ferrocenyl diphosphines have been realized from (R)-(+)-N,Ndimethylaminoethylferrocene. Particularly, dissymmetric ferrocenyl diphosphines have been synthesized. The diphosphines have been used as ligands in asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone in the presence of Ru catalysts. © 2006 Elsevier Science.

متن کاملApplication of Response Surface Methodology for Catalytic Hydrogenation of Nitrobenzene to Aniline Using Ruthenium Supported Fullerene Nanocatalyst
In this study fullerene functionalized using oleum (H2SO4·SO3), followed by the hydrolysis of the intermediate cyclosulfated fullerene as well as an oxidizing agent was employed to functionalize the fullerenes. Ruthenium was then added by the impregnation method or deposited on the functionalized fullerene. Subsequent to this step, Response Surface Methodol...
متن کاملA mesoporous carbon-supported Pt nanocatalyst for the conversion of lignocellulose to sugar alcohols.
The conversion of lignocellulose is a crucial topic in the renewable and sustainable chemical industry. However, cellulose from lignocellulose is not soluble in polar solvents, and is, therefore, difficult to convert into value-added chemicals. A strategy to overcome this drawback is the use of mesoporous carbon, which enhances the affinity between the cellulose and the catalyst through its abu...
