Catalytic transfer hydrogenation of biomass-derived levulinic acid to γ-valerolactone over Sn/Al-SBA-15 catalysts

New J. Chem., 2020, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D0NJ01288B, Paper
Sakthivel Kumaravel, Sivakumar Thiripuranthagan, Mani Durai, Elangovan Erusappan, Thanigaivel Vembuli
The synthesized inexpensive catalysts show high catalytic transfer hydrogenation activity at ambient N2 pressure under non-corrosive conditions. The Sn/Al-SBA-15 (25) catalyst exhibited the highest catalytic activity with 99% conversion of levulinic acid and 100% selectivity towards GVL.
