Alc) are important renewable platform chemicals can be used as such or further convert for preparation of other value added products such as Levulinic acid (LA), Alkyl Levulinates, 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (MTHF), and Tetrahydrofuran (THF) etc. Sulfonated H-beta zeolite was successfully prepared and used for the synthesis of furanic compounds especially FUR and F. Alc from c-xylose in one step using isopropanol as alcohol media. Prepared catalyst was well characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), BET, NH3-Temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and carbon-hydrogen-nitrogen-sulfur analysis (CHNS). It was found the total acid amount was increased with increase in sulfur loading which confirmed the sulfonic acid group (SO3-H) was successfully grafted onto zeolite structure. 3 wt% H-beta-SO3-H catalyst with optimized reaction parameters of 150 degrees C, 7 h, 25 wt% catalyst loading was tuned to get the highest furanic compound yield of 88.5% (FUR 76.8% + F.Alc 11.7%).The reusability study confirmed that there was a marginal drop of similar to 25% after 3 recycle runs.&lt;/p&gt;

However, this two-step process demands expensive separation and purification of the furfuryl alcohol (FAL) intermediate. Herein, we demonstrate an ingenious catalytic strategy for the one-pot cascade conversion of FUR to LA over a bifunctional catalyst without using pure external H-2. Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) served a dual role as a hydrogen donor and solvent while inhibiting the side reactions. Catalysts with a tunable surface area and acidity were synthesized by impregnating different percentages of H3PW12O40 (heteropolyacid) over a SiO2 support. The bifunctionality of the H3PW12O40/SiO2 catalyst is ascribed to the mutual coexistence of Lewis and Brvinsted acid sites. The Lewis acid sites imparted by active W metal sites adsorb hydrogen proton for catalytic transfer hydrogenation of FUR to FAL, while the predominant Brvinsted acid sites catalyze the hydrolysis of FAL to LA. Consequently, H3PW12O40/SiO2 revealed to be a potential catalyst producing an similar to 51% LA yield under optimized reaction conditions. Moreover, the catalyst was found to be reusable for three catalytic cycles. This study paves the way to develop future biorefinery, particularly direct conversion of FUR to LA over a bifunctional catalyst with a liquid H-donor, in an environmentally benign manner and comply with the green chemistry principles.&lt;/p&gt;
