Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our research group has been focusing on a development of heterogeneous catalytic systems for the transformations of biomass-related materials into value-added compounds. The conversion of sugars into chemicals such as organic acids and diols includes hydrolysis, skeletal isomerization, dehydration, selective oxidation of functionalities, and oxidative cleavage of C-O bonds. We developed highly-functionalized solid catalytic system having acid, base, oxidation and reduction abilities for one-pot conversion of sugars. Furthermore, we found selective catalytic reduction of biomass-derived materials and organic compounds including furfurals using formic acid as a hydrogen source.
