The combination of transfer hydrogenation reaction with the advantages of γ-valerolactone-based ionic liquids could result in an environmentally benign method for the reduction of organic substrates.
Pd/g-C3N4 catalysts with well-dispersed, electron-enriched Pd nanoparticles immobilized on pyridinic N atoms of g-C3N4 are active for catalytic transfer hydrogenation under ambient conditions.
One pot conversion of furfural to -valerolactone by transfer hydrogenation has been achieved over bifunctional Zr and TPA located in mesoporous silica catalysts. Different catalysts with TPA and ZrO2 located...
