Abstract:
Ni‐based catalysts were examined in the hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, resulting in the selective C−O bond cleavage to produce 1,5‐pentanediol, along with 1,2,5‐pentanetriol, which was detected for the first time under aqueous‐phase conditions. 70 % yield to tetrahydropyran was achieved using one‐pot conversion over bifunctional Ni/HZSM‐5 catalysts.
