In Situ Generation of Brønsted Acidity in the Pd-I Bifunctional Catalysts for Selective Reductive Etherification of Carbonyl Compounds under Mild Conditions

Selective synthesis of ethers from biomass-derived carbonyl compounds is an important academic and industrial challenge. The existing processes based on strong acid or metallic catalysts cannot provide high selectivity to ethers due to the occurrence of side reactions. Hereby we propose a Pd-I bifun... View More
