Abstract:

The electrochemical reduction of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (BHMF) is an efficient and sustainable approach for biomass-based chemical production. By reviewing the fundamental mechanisms of the electrochemical reduction of HMF to BHMF and the recent successful electrocatalyst material design strategies for reactions with high selectivity and faradaic efficiency, we provide an overview of the key factors affecting the electrocatalytic reduction of HMF from a reaction mechanism perspective and discuss future directions in catalyst design.

Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation

Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation

Catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes is a transition-metal catalyzed reduction of the double bond using molecular hydrogen to give alkanes. The mode of hydrogen addition follows syn stereochemistry.
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...
