Fe/FeOx embedded in LDH was prepared by reducing the pre-synthesized [Fe(C2O4)3]3? anions intercalated LDH and used as a multi-functional catalyst for synthesis of C7-C9 compound via transfer hydrogenation between furfural (C5) and short-chain alcohols (C2-C4) and a subsequent aldol reaction of furfural with intermediate short-chain aldehydes in the absence of a homogeneous base with furfuryl alcohol as a byproduct. Screening reaction conditions, evaluation and improvement of the cyclic catalytic performance, and determination of catalytically active components were performed, and the results demonstrated that both high conversion and high selectivity to the C[sbnd]C bond forming product can be obtained under a non-oxidizing atmosphere of Ar or H2/Ar mixed gas, a reaction temperature of 140 °C and a reaction time of 4 h; the catalyst was easily deactivated during the cycle experiments, however, its catalytic stability can be effectively improved by depositing Ni with weak reducibility on the surface of Fe nanoparticles at the cost of reducing partial catalytic activity. Fe/FeOx together with LDH as a whole proved to be effective in catalyzing the transfer hydrogenation reaction and the support LDH imparted basic catalytic function to the composite realizing the aldol reaction in the absence of a homogeneous base.

A novel carbon-chain increasing valorization of furfural (FUR), a cheap bio-based platform compound, has been successfully performed via the catalytic oxidative condensation process with mono-dispersed palladium oxide catalyst. For the reaction of furfural, n-propanol and O2, the PdO?TiO2 exhibited a prominent catalytic activity in which a 77.8% conversion of FUR with 89.2% selectivity of 3-(furan-2-yl)-2-methylacrylaldehyde was obtained. Based on the XRD, SEM, TEM, HRTEM, XPS, and UV–vis results of catalysts, it was concluded that high activity is associated with particle size, uniform distribution of palladium oxide and surface area of the support. Moreover, the recycling experiments confirmed that mono-dispersed palladium oxide catalyst was stable, in which it still kept a good catalytic performance after being recycled for five times. This provided a new route for the selective transformation of the hemicellulose-derived platform compounds.

An iron-catalyzed efficient valorization of biomass-derived furfural (FUR) in aliphatic alcohols is developed in which product selectivity can be simply regulated by varying the gas atmosphere. In the presence of molecular oxygen, there is oxidative condensation of FUR with ethanol, and the obtained product is furan-2-acrolein in a "FUR-ethanol-O2" system. Under suitable conditions, the conversion of FUR and selectivity of furan-2-acrolein are 84.2% and 82.7%, respectively. In the presence of H2, the selective hydrogenation of FUR is achieved, and the main product is furfuryl alcohol in a "FUR-ethanol-H2" system. Under optimal conditions, a 99.9% conversion of FUR and 93.6% selectivity of furfuryl alcohol are attained. This provides an economic, green and sustainable method for the utilization of biomass-based platform compounds in the chemical industry.

The efficient transformation of furfural (FUR) with aliphatic alcohols to achieve the carbon-chain growth has been developed using a binary Cu-Ce oxide as the catalyst. In the presence of molecular oxygen, the tandem oxidative condensation of FUR with n-propanol is successfully performed, in which an 85.4% conversion of FUR in 95.3% selectivity of 3-(furan-2-yl-)-2-methylacryaldehyde was obtained. The effects of different Cu/Ce ratios and base additives were investigated in detail. As a result, it is found that the CuO-CeO2 (1: 9) catalyst is optimal and potassium carbonate is a suitable additive. Next, the recycling of CuO-CeO2 catalyst was tested and there is no obvious activity loss after being reused five times. Moreover, the oxidative condensation of FUR with various aliphatic alcohols including ethanol, isopropanol, n-butanol and n-hexanol was studied where the long chain alcoholic molecule hinders the proceeding of reaction. Finally, based on the experimental results and reaction phenomena, a possible mechanism for the oxidative condensation of FUR with n-propanol-O2 is proposed.

We report a facile method for gaining two different types of highly active species from the same 2D Co-based MOFs, which can effectively catalyze the selective transformation of biomass-derived furfural (FUR) in alcohols. Removal of the coordinated water molecules from the Co-based MOFs at 300?°C creates the open metal centers as catalytic active species (designated as ACS-I catalyst). Increasing the pyrolysis temperature to 700?°C, the derived multi-element carbon-matrix nanocomposite from the MOFs (designated as ACS-II catalyst) also shows highly catalytic performance. Both catalyst ACS-I and ACS-II exhibit high reactivity (84.9% conv.) and excellent selectivity (ca. 99.0%) in the oxidative condensation of FUR with n-propanol to produce 3-(furan-2-yl-)-2-methylacrylaldehyde (2) in the presence of molecular oxygen. The particular evidence for the role of metal Co centers in ACS-I and ACS-II is originated from the catalyst characterization and control experiments, in which Ni-I and Ni-II catalysts derived from isomorphrous 2D Ni-based MOFs show no catalytic activity on the transformation of FUR under the similar conditions.
Pd/Al2O3-catalysed redox isomerisation of allyl alcohol: Application in aldol condensation and oxidative heterocyclization reactions

The application of the Pd/Al2O3 catalyst in allyl alcohol isomerization and subsequent aldol condensation and heterocyclization reactions is described. The activity of Pd/Al2O3 in these transformations is suggested to be due to the participation of the Lewis acidic sites of the support in the activation of the alcohol towards oxidative dehydrogenation by the metal and subsequent hydride transfer. The resulting enol(ate)/aldehyde could undergo further reactions promoted by the acid-base properties of the support. In the aldol condensation reactions of the isomerization product, electron poor aromatic aldehydes and heteroaromatic aldehydes showed the highest activity, while aromatic aldehydes bearing electron donating substituents reacted after transformation to the corresponding N-tosyl imines. 1,2-Disubstituted aromatics gave heterocyclic products in one-pot multistep reaction sequences.

A highly efficient and selective oxidative condensation-hydrogenation process of renewable furfural with aliphatic alcohols catalyzed by metallic platinum in a one-pot reactor is developed. A series of supported platinum catalysts including Pt/FH, Pt/H, Pt/HT, Pt/Fe3O4, Pt/Al2O3 and Pt/ZrO2 are prepared and employed for the polarization of furfural in ethanol and n-propanol. It is found that, in the presence of Pt/FH and potassium carbonate, 93.9% conversion of furfural and 67.9% selectivity to furan-2-acrolein were obtained via oxidative condensation in the furfural-ethanol-O2 (FEO) system, and 90.1% conversion of furfural and 90% selectivity to 3-(furan-2-yl-)-2-methylacrylaldehyde were obtained via oxidative condensation in the furfural-n-propanol-O2 (FPO) system. Moreover, the oxygen in the FPO system is completely replaced by molecular hydrogen to allow the further conversion of 3-(furan-2-yl-)-2-methylacrylaldehyde, while the catalytic system was kept unchanged. During this process, 87.3% conversion of 3-(furan-2-yl-)-2-methylacrylaldehyde and 73.2% selectivity to 3-(furan-2-yl-)-2-methylpropanol were obtained via a hydrogenation reaction with the Pt/FH catalyst. Moreover, several common bases as promoters were investigated in detail. All the catalysts were characterized by XRD, TEM, SEM, TPD and BET methods to reveal their catalytic nature in the reaction.
