Selective Reduction of Biomass-Derived Carbonyl-Containing Compounds over a Zirconium-Methylimidazole Coordination Catalyst

Abstract Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley (MPV) reduction is an extremely important strategy for the effective hydrogenation of biomass-derived carbonyl compounds. In this strategy, developing the proper Lewis acid–base catalysts is the core mission. At present, considerable concerns are...
