| Abstract: | An efficient one step, one pot process of synthesis of value-added products such as diols, monools and/or acids, preferably 1,2-PG from sugars/polysachhrides is disclosed. The process is catalyzed by a bimetallic catalyst supported on alumina and the catalyst is recyclable. The process of synthesis of the catalyst is a simple process and it converts a high % of the substrates to the desired polyols under mild conditions. |
