摘要
Conversion of biomass-derived ethyl levulinate toγ-valerolactone is realized by using homogeneous iron-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation(CTH).By utilizing Casey's catalyst and cheap isopropanol as hydrogen source,γ-valerolactone can be generated in 95%yield.Addition of catalytic amount of base is important to achieve good yield.
