Trimetallic Cu–Ni–Zn/H-ZSM-5 Catalyst for the One-Pot Conversion of Levulinic Acid to High-Yield 1,4-Pentanediol under Mild Conditions in an Aqueous Medium

The one-pot direct conversion of levulinic acid (LA) to 1,4-pentanediol (1,4-PDO) was investigated over a trimetallic Zn-promoted Cu–Ni alloy on a H-ZSM-5 (Cu–Ni–Zn/H-ZSM-5) catalyst. Under mild re...
