2,5-Dimethyltetrahydrofuran (DMTHF) is deoxygenated to <i>n</i>-hexane with >99% selectivity at mild conditions (90 °C, 1 bar H<sub>2</sub> pressure, fixed-bed reactor) in the presence of the bifunctional metal-acid catalyst Pt-CsPW comprising Pt and Cs<sub>2.5</sub>H<sub>0.5</sub>PW<sub>12</sub>O<sub>40</sub> (CsPW), an acidic Cs salt of Keggin-type heteropoly acid H<sub>3</sub>PW<sub>12</sub>O<sub>40</sub>. Addition of gold to the Pt-CsPW catalyst increases the turnover rate at Pt sites more t ...[more]
