“…In our research group, for several years, selective deoxygenation studies on natural polyols have been carried out using an early TM (i. e., rhenium), [10,125,129,133,280] which can be, in our opinion, a starting point for moving to analogous (from the catalytic point of view) metals, such as Mo or V. [281][282][283][284] However, efficient deoxygenation performance is not solely determined by the choice of the metal catalyst. As strongly demonstrated by this review, the actual applications mainly employ traditional thermochemical methodologies to transform polyols to low-oxygenated, carbon-equivalent, chemicals.…”
