	abstract = {Levulinic acid and its esters are close to being extensively produced through consolidated industrial processes, thus playing a central role in biobased industries producing commodities within the principles of the circular economy. One of the main pathways of levulinic acid and ester valorization is their transformation with hydrogen to obtain ?-valerolactone, valeric esters, 1,4-pentanediol and 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran. These reactions are catalyzed by noble and non-noble metal-based heterogeneous catalysts. The use of an abundant and non-toxic element, such as copper, is advantageous with respect to expensive or harmful metals, such as Rh, Ru, Pt or Ni. In this critical review, we wish to give a deeper insight into research advancements in the last ten years regarding the processing of levulinic acid and its esters with hydrogen using heterogeneous copper catalysts.},

As an efficient, cheap, and sustainable catalyst, Al(OiPr)(3) has been successfully used in the conversion of methyl levulinate (ML) to GVL in the solvent isopropanol (IPA). However, the molecular mechanism of this conversion catalyzed by Al(OiPr)(3) remains ambiguous. To investigate the mechanism of the conversion of ML to GVL catalyzed by Al(OiPr)(3), the reaction pathways, including the transesterification, Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) hydrogenation, and ring-closure steps, were probed using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the M062X-D3/def2-TZVP level. Among the elementary steps, it is found that ring-closure is the rate-determining step and that Al3+ can coordinate with the oxygen of 2-hydroxy-isopropyl levulinate (2HIPL) to catalyze the last ring-closure step. A four-centered transition state can be formed, and Al(OiPr)(3) shows a strong catalytic effect in the two steps of the ester exchange reaction. The center of Al(OiPr)(3) mainly coordinates with the carbonyl oxygen atom of the ester to catalyze the reaction. The present study provides some help in understanding the conversion mechanism of ML to GVL and designing more effective catalysts for use in biomass conversion chemistry.},

The as-synthesized catalysts have been characterized thoroughly by NMR, XRD, FESEM, and FT-IR, etc. The characterization suggested that a hydrogen bond interaction occurred between the proton of the amine ligand in the cationic Ru complexes and the oxygen atom of the POM anion. The hydrogen bond played an important role in enhancing catalytic activity for the transfer hydrogenation of methyl levulinate (ML) to γ-valerolactone (GVL) under very mild conditions. Especially, the transfer hydrogenation reaction proceeded via a heterogeneous catalysis approach and the heterogenized catalysts even afforded much better catalytic performance than homogeneous analogs. Notably, the catalysts can be recycled without an obvious loss of activity, and further extended to highly selective transfer hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated ketones and aldehydes, etc. into the corresponding α,β-unsaturated alcohols without any base external additives. The high catalytic performance of these anchored catalysts was highly related to the hydrogen bond interaction and the basicity of the polyanion. The obtained knowledge from this work could lead us to a new catalysis concept of tethering active homogeneous complexes for constructing highly active anchored Ru complex catalysts for hydrogenation reaction. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.},

	abstract = {Lattice-strained metal oxides often display enhanced catalytic activity and selectivity on activation of C-H, C=C, C=O, and O-H bonds in bio-oxygenates. However, limited experimental studies have been conducted on the structure sensitivity for tandem reactions, particularly on complicated surface redox chemical chain reactions over strained oxide materials. In this work, we employed transfer hydrogenation of levulinate as a representative example to illustrate how lattice strain affects tandem oxidation (dehydrogen-ation, C-H/O-H bond cleavage) and reduction (hydrogenation, C=O bond saturation) reactions. The key finding is that lattice strain at MnOx-CuOx boundaries within bimetallic MnCu oxides leads to a highly unsymmetrical strain across the interface and lattice distortion. Such unique behaviors further induce the Jahn-Teller effect for electronic reconfiguration and field split for Mn 3d orbitals. Thus, tandem H2 generation and hydrogenation of levulinate to valerolactone can occur much more efficiently with a fivefold enhancement over monometallic oxide catalysts. Detailed characterization of fresh and sintered catalyst samples further demonstrated the critical role of expansion of the Mn-O facet and phase segregation in facilitated chemical chain reactions. The design principles discussed in this work could be potentially applied for other non-noble oxide catalysts in energy and environmental fields.},

Ni-Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst exhibited GVL productivity of 1.125 kg(GVL).kg(catalyst)(-1)h(-1) which is relatively higher than Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst. Ni-Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst is stable during 12 h time-on-stream studies while Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst suffers from deactivation. The addition of Ni to Co/gamma-Al2O3 augments the resultant bimetallic catalyst activity and coke resistance capacity. As evidenced from XRD, H-2-TPR, XPS analyses the addition of Ni to Co/gamma-Al2O3 results in formation of Ni-Co alloy in the bimetallic catalysts. H(2)pulse chemisorption studies and TEM analyses illustrate formation of smaller particles in bimetallic Ni-Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst which in turn influenced the rate of formation of GVL. From TGA of spent catalysts, the carbon deposition rate is found to be decreased in the case of Ni-Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst (0.43 mmol.g(cat)(-1).h(-1)) than Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst (1.014 mmol.(-1)(gcat).h(-1)). Among the feedstocks of GVL i.e. levulinic acid, methyl levulinate, ethyl levulinate, ethyl levulinate is found to be prominent in constantly yielding GVL during 24 h study over bimetallic Ni-Co/gamma-Al2O3 catalyst.},

The presence of ZrO2 inside and outside the pore channels of SBA-15 was identified by XPS analysis as a higher binding energy value was observed for Zr 3d(5/2) of the catalyst with ZrO2 present inside the pores of SBA-15 due to the formation of Si-O-Zr bonds. The catalyst with ZrO2 present inside the SBA-15 pores and TPA dispersed on the support showed the highest activity with complete conversion of furfural and a GVL yield of 81%. The transfer hydrogenation activity depends on the interaction of the hydrogenating alcohol and the acid-base properties of the catalyst which are directed by the location of ZrO2 or TPA in the support. All the reaction parameters were studied and the optimum conditions were established. The catalyst exhibited good recyclability without any variation in activity.},

Levulinic acid (LA) is a compound that can be obtained easily from biomass and it can be transformed into GVL by dehydration and hydrogenation using metallic catalysts. In this work, catalysts of Ni (a non-noble metal) supported on a series of natural and low-cost clay-materials have been tested in the transformation of LA into GVL. Catalysts were prepared by a modified wet impregnation method using oxalic acid trying to facilitate a suitable metal dispersion. The supports employed are attapulgite and two sepiolites with different surface areas. Reaction tests have been undertaken using an aqueous medium at moderate reaction temperatures of 120 and 180 degrees C. Three types of experiments were undertaken: (i) without H(2)source, (ii) using formic acid (FA) as hydrogen source and (iii) using Zn in order to transform water in hydrogen through the reaction Zn + H2O -> ZnO + H-2. The best results have been obtained combining Zn (which plays a double role as a reactant for hydrogen formation and as a catalyst) and Ni/attapulgite. Yields to GVL higher than 98% have been obtained at 180 degrees C in the best cases. The best catalytic performance has been related to the presence of tiny Ni particles as nickel crystallites larger than 4 nm were not present in the most efficient catalysts.},

	abstract = {gamma-Valerolactone (GVL) is an interesting bio-based platform molecule that is utilized as green solvent and a versatile building block for the synthesis of bio-fuels and chemicals. Herein, an investigation on the efficient production of GVL from biomass-based carbonyl compounds such as furfural, levulinic acid, and its esters using 2-propanol as H-donor and solvent over stable Zr-incorporated mesoporous silica (KIT-5) catalysts was presented. Both Lewis and Bronsted acid sites were generated by the introduction of Zr into KIT-5, and the acid density of the resulting Zr-KIT-5(Si/Zr) could be controlled by simply adjusting Si/Zr molar ratio. Among these bifunctional catalysts, Zr-KIT-5(10) showed superior catalytic performance in the production of GVL (>91% selectivity) from biomass-derived carboxides (ca. 94% conversion), which was demonstrated to positively correlate with its large amount of acidic sites and facile access of active sites to interconnected pores. Moreover, the spent catalyst held about 90% of its original activity in the sixth run. Due to the presence of Bronsted and Lewis dual acidic sites in Zr-KIT-5, the direct conversion of furfural to GVL was also permitted in a single pot via tandem reactions involving hydrogenation, ring-opening, secondary hydrogenation, and subsequent cyclization.

	abstract = {gamma-Butyrolactone (GBL) and gamma-valerolactone (GVL) are two of the lactones with wide application in industry. The interactions of these two lactones with alcohols have been a subject of experimental research. This article reports the theoretical investigation of GBLiethanol and GVL/ethanol mixtures throughout the entire composition range using molecular dynamics and ab initio calculations. Molecular dynamics simulation using the optimized potentials for liquid simulations force field reproduces the experimental thermodynamics results quite wellinvestigation of the liquid structure show that ethanol interacts with GBL and GVL molecules at specific sites, namely, almost collinearly with the lactone C=O bond, below and above the lactone ring plane, and between the C-C ring bonds of the lactone. While ab initio calculations largely support the interaction of ethanol with the lactones via O-H-O hydrogen bonds, hydrogen boding via lactone C-H and ethanol O dearly have a significant role as well. The O-H-O interactions are dominated by the carbonyl oxygen. Dispersion interactions seem to play a more important role in stabilizing those interactions in which the hydrogen bonding is via the lactone ring oxygen. Generally, the two lactones behave very similarly in both liquid and gas phase studies, with minor differences attributed to more steric hindrance due the methyl group in gamma-valerolactone.

Herein, we report a facile one-pot carbothermal route to in-situ controllable synthesize heterogeneous bimetallic Ni3Fe NPs@C nanocatalyst. The X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and N-2 adsorption-description results reveal that the Ni3Fe alloy nanoparticles are evenly embedded in carbon matrix. The as-prepared Ni3Fe NPs@C catalyst shows excellent selective hydrogenation catalytic performance toward the conversion of levulinic acid (LA) to gamma-valerolactone (GVL) via both direct hydrogenation (DH) and transfer hydrogenation (TH). In DH of LA, the bimetallic catalyst achieved a 93.8% LA conversion efficiency with a 95.5% GVL selectivity and 38.2 mmol g(-1) h(-1) GVL productivity (under 130 degrees C, 2MPa H-2 within 2 h), which are 6 and 40 times in comparison with monometallic Ni NPs@C and Fe NPs@C catalysts, respectively. In addition, the identical catalyst displayed a full conversion of LA with almost 100% GVL selectivity and 167.1 mmol g(-1) h(-1) GVL productivity at 180 degrees C within 0.5 h in TH of LA. Under optimal reaction conditions, the DH and TH catalytic performance of 500-Ni3Fe NPs@C(3:1) catalyst for converting LA to GVL is comparable to the state-of-the-art noble-based catalysts. The demonstrated capability of bimetallic catalyst design approach to introduce dual-catalytic functionality for DH and TH reactions could be adoptable for other catalysis processes.

	abstract = {Platform chemicals derived from lignocellulosic plant biomass are viewed as a sustainable replacement for crude oil-based feedstocks. Levulinic acid (LA) is one such biomass-derived chemical that has been widely studied for further catalytic transformation to γ-valerolactone (GVL), an important ‘green’ fuel additive, solvent, and fine chemical intermediate. Although the transformation of LA to GVL can be achieved using heterogeneous catalysis, homogeneous catalytic systems that operate under milder reactions, give higher selectivities and can be recycled continuously are attracting considerable attention. A range of new homogeneous catalysts have now been dem-onstrated to efficiently convert LA to GVL and to transform LA directly to other value-added chemicals such as 1,4-pentane-diol (1,4-PDO) and 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MTHF). This Minireview covers recent advances in the area of homogeneous catalysis for the conversion of levulinic acid and levulinic ester derivatives to GVL and chemicals beyond GVL. © 2016 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
