Abstract
Furfural is directly converted to levulinate esters in one-pot model. The combined catalysis involves hydrogen-transfer hydrogenation and alcoholysis. Nb2O5-ZrO2 mixed oxide microspheres are used as bifunctional catalysts. Process integration delivers improved sustainability of furfural conversion.95
