The selective scission of chemical bonds is always of great significance in organic chemistry. The cleavage of strong carbon-carbon σ bonds in the unstrained systems remains challenging. Here, we report the selective hydrogenolysis of carbon-carbon σ bonds in primary aliphatic alcohols catalyzed by supported metals under relatively mild conditions. In the case of 1-hexadecanol hydrogenolysis over Ru/TiO2 as a model reaction system, the selective scission of carbon-carbon bonds over carbon-oxygen bonds is observed, resulting in n-pentadecane as the dominant product with a small quantity of n-hexadecane. Theoretical calculations reveal that the 1-hexadecanol hydrogenolysis on flat Ru (0001) undergoes two parallel pathways: i.e. carbon-carbon bond scission to produce n-pentadecane and carbon-oxygen bond scission to produce n-hexadecane. The removal of adsorbed CO on a flat Ru (0001) surface is a crucial step for the 1-hexadecanol hydrogenolysis. It contributes to the largest energy barrier in n-pentadecane production and also retards the rate for n-hexadecane production by covering the active Ru (0001) surface. The knowledge presented in this work has significance not just for a fundamental understanding of strong carbon-carbon σ bond scission but also for practical biomass conversion to fuels and chemical feedstocks.

A fully heterogeneous and highly efficient dual catalyst system for alkane metathesis (AM) has been developed. The system is comprised of an alumina-supported iridium pincer catalyst for alkane dehydrogenation/olefin hydrogenation and a second heterogeneous olefin metathesis catalyst. The iridium catalysts bear basic functional groups on the aromatic backbone of the pincer ligand and are strongly adsorbed on Lewis acid sites on alumina. The heterogeneous systems exhibit higher lifetimes and productivities relative to the corresponding homogeneous systems as catalyst/catalyst interactions and bimolecular decomposition reactions are inhibited. Additionally, using a two-pot device, the supported Ir catalysts and metathesis catalysts can be physically separated and run at different temperatures. This system with isolated catalysts shows very high turnover numbers and is selective for the formation of high molecular weight alkanes.
