The preliminary investigations of the catalytic performance of these as-synthesized Ru/W18O49 nanomaterials appear quite promising for converting glucose to glycols. The total glycol selectivity of 82.6% with 100% conversion of glucose was obtained over 0.03 wt % Ru loading on tungsten nanostructures, which turns out to be the lowest Ru loading% on support reported to date to achieve the highest total glycol selectivity among the previously reported catalyst based on Ru-nano/composite materials. Additionally, preliminary results show that the concentration of Ru on W18O49 significantly affects the selectivity of the glycol production. Thus, our methodology will open up a wide range of opportunities regarding the choice of metals, stoichiometric/nonstoichiometric WOx (x=1-3) as support, and the viability of further catalytic manipulations. A probable catalytic mechanism for this catalytic process is also proposed.</p>
