γ-Valerolactone (GVL) is one of the versatile platform molecules and biofuel additives derived from the lignocellulosic biomass. Herein, the efficient synthesis of GVL from biobased ethyl levulinate (EL) using alcohol as both H-donor and solvent without an external hydrogen source has been achieved over porous Ti/Zr microspheres. The catalysts (Ti <sub><i>x</i></sub> Zr <sub><i>y</i></sub> ) with different Ti/Zr molar ratios were synthesized using hexadecylamine (HDA) as a structure-directing ag ...[more]
