Abstract

The chapter delves into the importance of sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels, emphasizing the need for biomass conversion. It begins by introducing the use of homogeneous iridium catalysts in biomass conversion, highlighting their advantages in transforming bio-derived compounds. The chapter is divided into sections based on the substrates, focusing on sugars, bio-derived alcohols, glycerol, lignin, and fatty acids. It discusses hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, and other transformations, showcasing the versatility of iridium catalysts in these processes. The chapter also covers recent trends and innovations, making it a valuable resource for professionals in the field of catalysis and biomass conversion.
