Although, few studies are devoted on this work yet, systematic study on commercially viable (low loading of metal, recyclable catalyst, mild conditions, high selectivities etc.) is scarce and typically done under harsh conditions. Herein, we report, the methodical effect of support (SiO2, Al2O3 (acidic, basic and neutral), SiO2-Al2O3) on the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin derived various monomers, guaiacol, veretrol, eugenol, phenol using very low loading (0.5 wt%) Ru catalyst. Very high yield (82%) of cyclohexanol from guaiacol could be achieved in presence of cyclohexane as a solvent and Ru/Al2O3-Acidic catalyst at 225 degrees C and under 1 MPa H-2 pressure. The detailed study on the effect of solvent, stability and adsorption of reactant &amp;amp; products etc. is done and it was observed that products are more prone to adsorb and undergo further reactions. The complete characterization of fresh and spent catalysts revealed that lower catalyst reduction temperature and presence of Ru in partially higher oxidation state proved by XPS, helps in enhancing the cyclohexanol formation. Subsequently, role of Ru particle size and support on the activity was also investigated.&lt;/p&gt;

Basic support has potential to provide advantages of better substrate-support interaction and reduced coke formation. Hence, we report the effect of various basic supports for metal catalysts (Pt, Pd, Ru) on the upgradation of phenol, guaiacol and eugenol. The complete hydrogenation product is achieved due to the strong interaction of the substrate with catalyst. Phenol is converted (55%) into cyclohexanol (49% yield) with low loading of Pt catalyst (1 wt%), supported by the higher TON of 1 wt% Pt/NaX (TON = 14844) than 3 wt% Pt/NaX (TON = 5128). Effect of basic support with moderate (NaX) and strong (CHT) basic strengths are corelated for the higher cyclohexanone formation. Presence of strong basic sites and higher TON of 3 wt% C-HT (TON = 6806) directs the significant substrate-support interaction. Catalytic activity and recyclability are supported by the comparable performance of recycle runs and characterizations of the fresh and spent catalysts.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.609</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
