Transformation of biomass into valuable nitrogen‐containing compounds is highly desired,
yet limited success has been achieved. Here we report an efficient catalyst system, partially …

Biomass has been long exploited as an anthropogenic energy source; however, the 21st
century challenges of energy security and climate change are driving resurgence in its …

Cellulosic biomass is the largest source of renewable organic carbon on our planet.
Cellulose accounts for 40–50 wt% of this lignocellulose, and it is a feedstock for industrially …

Biofuel or biochemical production from biomass, especially lignocellulosic biomass, is the
most promising option to replace fossil-based products to achieve sustainability. However …

Modulation of the electronic structure of metal-based catalysts proves to be useful for
optimizing the catalytic activity. However, precise modulation of the electronic structure at the …

Due to its deterrence of high-pressure fossil-derived H 2 and possible reduction in process
costs, catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) has subsequently risen to prominence as a …

Biomass is the most abundant and low-cost renewable source for the production of value-
added nitrogen-containing compounds. However, a large amount of water exists in natural …
