Abstract
Hydrodeoxygenation of oxygen-rich molecules toward hydrocarbons is attractive yet challenging in the sustainable biomass upgrading. The typical supported metal catalysts often display unstable catalytic performances owing to the migration and aggregation of metal nanoparticles (NPs) into large sizes under harsh conditions. Here, we develop a crystal growth and post-synthetic etching method to construct hollow chromium terephthalate MIL-101 (named as HoMIL-101) with one layer of sandwiched Ru NPs as robust catalysts. Impressively, HoMIL-101@Ru@MIL-101 exhibits the excellent activity and stability for hydrodeoxygenation of biomass-derived levulinic acid to gamma-valerolactone under 50°C and 1-megapascal H2, and its activity is about six times of solid sandwich counterparts, outperforming the state-of-the-art heterogeneous catalysts. Control experiments and theoretical simulation clearly indicate that the enrichment of levulinic acid and H2 by nanocavity as substrate regulator enables self-regulating the backwash of both substrates toward Ru NPs sandwiched in MIL-101 shells for promoting reaction with respect to solid counterparts, thus leading to the substantially enhanced performance.

Abstract
Herein, we report an efficient methodology for the reduction of esters, carbonates, and anhydrides to alcohols using in situ generated aminodiborane from iodine and ammonia borane. This methodology also finds use for the transformation of esters to iodides by varying the stoichiometry of reagents. The protocol has broad substrate scope for transformation of esters to alcohols and iodides with excellent yields. The method is also useful for synthesizing pharmaceutically and industrially important compounds such as a Cinacalcet precursor, a Streptoindole analogue, and 1,4-pentanediol. Control studies and DFT calculations carried out to study the reduction mechanism of esters using aminodiborane indicate that a dioxaborinamine intermediate is formed during the reaction.

Abstract
Bifunctional catalysts consisting of metal-containing nanoparticles (NPs) and zeolite supports have received considerable attention due to their excellent catalytic properties in numerous reactions, including direct (biomass is a substrate) and indirect (platform chemical is a substrate) biomass processing. In this short review, we discuss major approaches to the preparation of NPs in zeolites, concentrating on methods that allow for the best interplay (synergy) between metal and acid sites, which is normally achieved for small NPs well-distributed through zeolite. We focus on the modification of zeolites to provide structural integrity and controlled acidity, which can be accomplished by the incorporation of certain metal ions or elements. The other modification avenue is the adjustment of zeolite morphology, including the creation of numerous defects for the NP entrapment and designed hierarchical porosity for improved mass transfer. In this review, we also provide examples of synergy between metal and acid sites and emphasize that without density functional theory calculations, many assumptions about the interactions between active sites remain unvalidated. Finally, we describe the most interesting examples of direct and indirect biomass (waste) processing for the last five years.

Abstract
Metal-oxide interaction was widely observed in supported metal catalysts, playing a significant role in tuning the catalytic performance. Here, we reported that the interaction of Ru and MnOx was able to facilitate the hydrodeoxygenation of levulinic acid (LA) to 2-butanol with a high turnover frequency (1.99 × 106 h-1), turnover number (4411), and yield (98.8%). Moreover, this catalyst was capable of removing the hydroxymethyl group of lactones and diol with high yields of products. The high activity of the Ru-MnOx catalyst was due to the strong Ru-MnOx interaction, which facilitated reduction of Ru oxide to Ru0 and Mn oxide to Mn2+. The increased fractions of Ru0 and Mn2+ provided metal and Lewis acid sites, respectively, and therefore facilitated LA hydrodeoxygenation. A linear correlation between the hydrodeoxygenation activity of the Ru-MnOx catalyst and [Mn2+]ln([Ru0]) was observed.

Abstract
The efficient hydrogenation of biomass-derived levulinic acid (LA) to value-added γ-valerolactone (GVL) based on nonprecious metal catalysts under mild conditions is crucial challenge because of the intrinsic inactivity and instability of these catalysts. Herein, a series of highly active and stable carbon-encapsulated Co/ZnO@C-X (where X = 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, the molar ratios of Zn/(Co+Zn)) heterojunction catalysts were obtained by in situ pyrolysis of bimetal CoZn MOF-74. The optimal Co/ZnO@C-0.3 catalyst could achieve 100% conversion of LA and 98.35% selectivity to GVL under mild conditions (100 °C, 5 bar, 3 h), which outperformed most of the state-of-the-art catalysts reported so far. Detailed characterizations, experimental investigations, and theoretical calculations revealed that the interfacial interaction between Co and ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) could promote the dispersibility and air stability of the active Co0 for the activation of H2. Moreover, the strong Co-ZnO interaction also enhanced the Lewis acidity of the Co/ZnO interface, contributing to the adsorption of LA and the esterification of intermediates. The synergy between the hydrogenation sites and the Lewis acid sites at the Co/ZnO interface enabled the conversion of LA to GVL with high efficiency. In addition, benefiting from the Co-ZnO interfacial interaction as well as the unique carbon-encapsulated structure of the heterojunction catalyst, the recyclability was also greatly improved and the yield of GVL was nearly unchanged even after six cycles.

Abstract
In this work, three types of alumina-supported bimetallic Ni-Cu catalysts [Ni-Cu/commercial non-ordered mesoporous alumina (CMA), Ni-Cu/ordered MA (OMA), and Ni-Cu-OMA] were prepared via different fabrication strategies and investigated in the conversion of levulinic acid (LA) into γ-valerolactone and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MTHF). This study employed characterization techniques and reactions to reveal the effects of the fabrication strategy on the activities of the catalysts. It was observed that the catalysts constructed on OM supports (Ni-Cu/OMA and Ni-Cu-OMA) displayed superior catalytic performance compared to those constructed on CM supports (Ni-Cu/CMA). Specifically, Ni-Cu-OMA, which was fabricated via the one-pot evaporation-induced self-assembly strategy, exhibited the best catalytic performance, achieving a complete conversion of LA and a high selectivity of 73.0 % toward 2-MTHF in a solvent-free reaction environment. The promising activity of Ni-Cu-OMA was ascribed to the well-dispersed active sites within the framework of the support, the enhanced metal-support interaction, and the highly efficient exploitation of the synergistic effect between Ni and Cu. Detailed post-characterization techniques were also employed to highlight the outstanding stability of Ni-Cu-OMA.

Rodiansono, Astuti MD, Mustikasari K, Husain S, Ansyah FR, Hara T, Shimazu S. Unravelling the one-pot conversion of biomass-derived furfural and levulinic acid to 1,4-pentanediol catalysed by supported RANEY® Ni-Sn alloy catalysts. RSC Adv 2021; 12:241-250. [PMID: 35424491 PMCID: PMC8978689 DOI: 10.1039/d1ra06135f] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2021] [Accepted: 11/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Bimetallic Ni–Sn alloys have been recognised as promising catalysts for the transformation of furanic compounds and their derivatives into valuable chemicals. Herein, we report the utilisation of a supported bimetallic RANEY® nickel–tin alloy supported on aluminium hydroxide (RNi–Sn(x)/AlOH; x is Ni/Sn molar ratio) catalysts for the one-pot conversion of biomass-derived furfural and levulinic acid to 1,4-pentanediol (1,4-PeD). The as prepared RNi–Sn(1.4)/AlOH catalyst exhibited the highest yield of 1,4-PeD (78%). The reduction of RNi–Sn(x)/AlOH with H2 at 673–873 K for 1.5 h resulted in the formation of Ni–Sn alloy phases (e.g., Ni3Sn and Ni3Sn2) and caused the transformation of aluminium hydroxide (AlOH) to amorphous alumina (AA). The RNi–Sn(1.4)/AA 673 K/H2 catalyst contained a Ni3Sn2 alloy as the major phase, which exhibited the best yield of 1,4-PeD from furfural (87%) at 433 K, H2 3.0 MPa for 12 h and from levulinic acid (up to 90%) at 503 K, H2 4.0 MPa, for 12 h. Supported RANEY® Ni–Sn(1.5)/AC and three types of supported Ni–Sn(1.5) alloy (e.g., Ni–Sn(1.5)/AC, Ni–Sn(1.5)/c-AlOH, and Ni–Sn(1.5)/γ-Al2O3) catalysts afforded high yields of 1,4-PeD (65–87%) both from furfural and levulinic acid under the optimised reaction conditions. The RANEY® Ni–Sn(x) alloy catalysed the one-pot conversion of biomass-derived furfural and levulinic acid to allow remarkable yield of 1,4-pentanediol (up to 90%) under the mild reaction conditions.![]()

Abstract
Bioethanol is one of the most promising renewable resources for the production of important monomers. To date, there have been various processes proposed for bioethanol conversion to renewable monomers. In this review, the catalytic bioethanol upgrading to various types of monomers using hierarchical zeolites as catalysts is illustrated, including the recent design and preparation of hierarchical zeolites for these catalytic processes. The characterizations of catalysts including textural properties, pore architectures, acidic properties, and active species are also exemplified. Moreover, the catalytic studies with various processes of monomer production from bioethanol including bioethanol dehydration, bioethanol to hydrocarbons, and bioethanol to butadiene are revealed in terms of catalytic activities and mechanistic studies. In addition, the future perspectives of these catalytic circumstances are proposed in both economic and sustainable development contexts.
