Abstract: Cellulose-derived tetrahydrofuran-dimethanol (THFDM) can be converted over Pt-WOx/TiO2 catalysts to 1,6-hexanediol (1,6-HDO) with up to 70% yield. This reaction involves ring-opening of THFDM to 1,2,6-hexanetriol (HTO) and then hydrogenolysis of HTO to 1,6-HDO. Hydrogen atoms… read more here.
