Abstract

In article number 1801953, Chun Chen, Huijun Zhao, Guozhong Wang, and co-workers synthesize a 15 wt%-Cu/AC-600 catalyst via a one-pot carbothermal method at 600 °C, which yields highly dispersed copper nanoparticles supported on a carbon matrix, and consequently exhibits excellent catalytic activity and selectivity in the aqueous-phase hydrodeoxygenation and organic-phase (2-propanol) transfer-hydrogenation reaction of vanillin to 2-methoxy-4-methylphenol.
