The study demonstrates effective hydrogenation of levulinic acid to γ-valerolactone using p-cymene ruthenium catalysts with formic acid, highlighting a new approach to biofuel synthesis.
The utilisation of mono- and bidentate p-cymene Ru(II)-NHC complexes as pre-catalysts, along with formic acid as the hydrogen source, facilitates the formation of active diruthenium intermediates featuring bridging chlorido and/or...
