Abstract
AbstractWe have previously reported hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of phenols to form cyclohexanes at 110 °C under ambient H2 pressure by using Pt/H‐ZSM‐5 catalyst and octane as a solvent; however, the low solubility of some phenols in octane is a major problem for expanding the scope of this reaction. Herein, we report that Pt/H‐beta catalyzes the HDO using ester solvents which dissolve a wide range of phenols. The difference in HDO performance between the catalyst systems, Pt/H‐beta in esters and Pt/H‐ZSM‐5 in octane, was also investigated. Furthermore, we have demonstrated that HDO of a phenol proceeds at 85 °C by Pt/H‐beta in an ester solvent.
