Abstract

Pivotal molybdenum oxide-decorated ruthenium on charcoal catalysts exhibited high efficiency and selectivity for the room temperature and low pressure hydrogenation of levulinic acid (LA) to renewable fuel γ−valerolactone (GVL). The Ru-(y)MoOx/C (y = the amount of co-loaded Mo in wt%) catalysts were synthesised by using a one-pot coprecipitation-hydrothermal method of a solution that consisted of Ru and Mo species at 150 °C for 24 h, followed by reduction with H2 at 300–600 °C for 1.5 h. The Ru-(0.55)/MoOx/C catalyst (pre-reduced at 500 °C) exhibited high dispersion of Ru nanoparticles on the surface of MoOx/C composite support, demonstrating the highest yield of GVL (>99) with a turnover frequency (TOF) reaching up to 2730 h−1 at 30 °C, 10 bar H2, and 1 h. The Ru-(0.55)/MoOx/C also catalysed various carboxylic acids to corresponding alcohols and was reusable without any significant loss of selectivity.
