This disclosure provides embodiments directed to compositions, methods, and processes to produce compounds having the structure:
each of R1-R5 is selected from a hydroxyl group and hydrogen; and R1-R5 include at least one hydroxyl group and at least one hydrogen; and n=0-2. In particular, methods of the disclosure can include reacting a precursor, the precursor containing more oxygen (O) atoms than the compound, with a gas containing hydrogen (H
2
) in the presence of a catalyst.
本公开提供了有关组合物、方法和过程的实施例,以产生具有以下结构的化合物:R1-R5中的每个都是羟基和氢中选择的一个;且R1-R5包括至少一个羟基和至少一个氢;且n=0-2。特别地,本公开的方法可以包括在催化剂的存在下,用含有
氢气(H2)的气体反应前体,所述前体含有比所述化合物更多的氧(O)原子。
