Bruna, Lauriane; Cardona-Farreny, Miquel; Colliere, Vincent; Philippot, Karine; Axet, M. Rosa published the artcile< In Situ Ruthenium Catalyst Modification for the Conversion of Furfural to 1,2-Pentanediol>, COA of Formula: C5H10O2, the main research area is ruthenium supported PVP hydrogenation catalyst value added product; biomass; furfural; nanocatalysis; pentanediol; ruthenium.

Exploiting biomass to synthesize compounds that may replace fossil-based ones is of high interest in order to reduce dependence on non-renewable resources. 1,2-Pentanediol and 1,5-pentanediol can be produced from furfural, furfuryl alc. or tetrahydrofurfuryl alc. following a metal catalyzed hydrogenation/C-O cleavage procedure. Colloidal ruthenium nanoparticles stabilized with polyvinylpyrrolidone in situ modified with different organic compounds are able to produce 1,2-pentanediol directly from furfural in a 36% of selectivity at 125°C under 20 bar of H2 pressure.
