“…[62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70] Symmetrical ketones such as 3-pentanone, 6-undecanone, and 7-tridecanone have been obtained from ketonization of the appropriate acids. [62,65] This method was applied to the synthesis of nonsymmetrical ketones used as raw materials for pesticides and pharmaceutical products.…”

Ceria has been the subject of thorough investigations, mainly because of its use as an active component of catalytic converters for the treatment of exhaust gases. However, ceria‐based catalysts have also been developed for different applications in organic chemistry. The redox and acid–base properties of ceria, either alone or in the presence of transition metals, are important parameters that allow to activate complex organic molecules and to selectively orient their transformation. Pure ceria is used in several organic reactions, such as the dehydration of alcohols, the alkylation of aromatic compounds, ketone formation, and aldolization, and in redox reactions. Ceria‐supported metal catalysts allow the hydrogenation of many unsaturated compounds. They can also be used for coupling or ring‐opening reactions. Cerium atoms can be added as dopants to catalytic system or impregnated onto zeolites and mesoporous catalyst materials to improve their performances. This Review demonstrates that the exceptional surface (and sometimes bulk) properties of ceria make cerium‐based catalysts very effective for a broad range of organic reactions.

“…[51][52][53][54] Additionally, zeolites (ZSM-5) can be used to form CÀC bonds through alkylation reactions between carbohydrate-derived olefins, [34,55,56] and supported rare-earth oxides (CeO 2 /ZrO 2 ) can be used for CÀC bond formation through ketonization reactions between carbohydrate-derived organic acids. [35][36][37] In addition, we note that long-chain alkanes can be produced by a recently developed process that combines polyol reforming catalysis with Fischer-Tropsch catalysis in a single reactor and thus allows for the direct conversion of glycerol into liquid hydrocarbons that are suitable for diesel applications. [58,59] In this system, the heat necessary for the conversion of glycerol into synthesis gas is supplied by the FischerTropsch reaction, [58,59] thereby offering a less energy-intensive alternative to biomass gasification followed by Fischer-Tropsch and requiring fewer reactors and separations.…”

“…Another interesting strategy for achieving CÀC coupling between partially oxygenated species involves the ketonization reaction, wherein two acid molecules form a ketone, CO 2 , and H 2 O. [35][36][37] Figure 3 shows this scenario for the case of acetic acid coupling [Eq. (11)].…”

Fossil fuels are the primary source of energy for modern society. For example, Figure 1 shows the distribution of energy consumption by resource both globally and within the United States. [1][2][3] In 2006, the global energy consumption was 460 exajoules (1 EJ = 10 18 J), of which 87 % was derived from fossil fuel resources (36 % petroleum, 26 % coal, and 23 % natural gas). The US consumed close to 100 EJ, and 85 % of this energy was derived from fossil fuels. Currently, renewable resources account for only 7 % of total energy consumption (both globally and in the US), and nuclear electricity accounts for around 6-8 % of energy consumption. Figure 1 also shows the contribution of the different renewable energy sources to the total amount of renewable energy consumed in the US, with the primary sources being hydroelectricity (45 % of renewables) and traditional biomass (i.e., open combustion; 37 % of renewables). Solar, wind, geothermal, and new biomass contribute 1 %, 4 %, 5 %, and 10 % of the renewable energy, respectively.The distribution of energy consumption for residential, industrial, commercial, transportation, and electrical power sectors in the US is shown in Table 1, along with the distribution of energy consumption for each sector by fuel source.[3] (We focus on energy distributions in the US because these numbers are readily available, and the general trends in the US are similar to those globally.) Industry and transportation consume 30 % each of the total energy in the US, while the commercial and residential sectors consume 20 % each. Residential and commercial energy consumption is primarily in the form of electrical power (70 % and 78 % of the total energy for residential and commercial, respectively). Thus, these two sectors consume primarily coal and natural gas. Only 33 % of industrial energy consumption is in the form of electricity, and this sector consumes almost equivalent energy amounts of coal, natural gas, and oil. Electricity generation accounts for close to 40 % of the total energy consumption in the US. Coal and natural gas supply 40 % and 20 % of electricity, respectively, while oil supplies only 7 %. In contrast to the aforementioned energy sectors, transportation energy is derived almost exclusively from oil (96 %). Renewable energy supplies less than 10 % of the energy to any single sector.The distribution of energy sources amongst the different sectors is listed in Table 2.[3] The majority of coal is consumed by the electrical power sector. Transportation consumes 70 % of the energy provided by oil, while natural gas consumption is distributed amongst industrial, residential, and commerce sectors (primarily to supply heat). Interestingly, Table 2 shows that the use of non-fossil resources (i.e., nuclear, hydro, and other renewables) is concentrated within electricity generation. Similarly, use of solar energy is primarily in the residential sector, likely for heating purposes. Overall, the data in Tables 1 and 2 show that electrical power generation and transportation consume ...

“…Acid-base reactions, such as ketonization, can be performed with pure ceria or with ceria supported on metal oxides such as silica or titania [2][3][4]. In addition to acid-base sites, redox sites are necessary for reactions such as the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to produce styrene [1,2].…”
