Abstract

Biomass is characterized by a high oxygen content (typically ? 40 % w/w). Its conversion into feedstocks that can directly be used in existing petrochemical feed streams will therefore require an efficient and selective deoxygenation chemistry. Ruthenium or iron-based water/acid-tolerant and high-temperature stable metal complexes that are active ionic hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis catalysts maybe ideally suited for this purpose.
