Yu, Yaling published the artcileAqueous phase hydrogenolysis of sugar alcohol to higher alcohols over Ru-Mo/CMK-3 catalyst, Formula: C5H12O, the main research area is sugar alc ruthenium molybdenum CMK3 hydrogenolysis catalyst.
Recently, great efforts have been devoted to the production of higher alcs. (C2+ alcs.) by chem. synthesis, but it is still quite challenging for the related heterogeneous catalysis. In this work, the hydrogenolysis of sugar alcs. derived from biomass was proposed to efficiently synthesize higher alcs. over the Ru-Mo/CMK-3 catalyst. The C-C and C-O bonds in sorbitol were pos. broken to form C2+ alcs., while the excessive cleavage of C-O bonds to form C1-C6 alkanes was effectively suppressed. The exptl. results indicated that the yield of C2+ alcs. in the products reached 49.0%, and that of C5+ alcs. reached 29.9% in a continuous flow reactor. Preliminary exptl. results and catalyst characterization supported that the synergetic effect of Ru and Mo species, different Ru precursors and the mesoporous channel effect of CMK-3 carrier were the key to such high reactivity.
