“…[60][61][62] Some controversy remains as to which Cu oxidation state(s) promote the reaction with some researchers claiming a high Cu 0 surface area favouring methanol synthesis, 63 while other experimental work implies that well-dispersed Cu + ions in close contact with ZnO phases may represent the catalytically active species. 64 The long term stability of the catalyst is essential for industrial application. Critically, the hydrogenation of natural fatty acid esters over Cu-containing catalysts suffers from fast catalyst deactivation by sulphur and phosphate containing compounds present in bio-derived feedstocks.…”

The catalytic reduction of carboxylic acid derivatives has witnessed a rapid development in recent years. These reactions, involving molecular hydrogen as the reducing agent, can be promoted by heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysts. The milestone achievements and recent results by both approaches are discussed in this Review. In particular, we focus on the mechanistic aspects of the catalytic hydrogenation and highlight the bifunctional nature of the mechanism that is preferred for supported metal catalysts as well as homogeneous transition metal complexes.
