Advancing Sustainable Gamma-Valerolactone Synthesis Using Homogeneous Catalysts: Catalytic Strategies, Mechanistic Insights and Transition to Eco-Friendly Biomass Processing

Gamma-valerolactone (GVL) emerges as a pivotal platform chemical derived from the reduction of levulinic acid (LA), a hydrolysate of lignocellulosic polysaccharides. GVL is recognized as a viable substitute for fuels and chemicals generated from fossil fuels due to its properties. The reduction of L...
