The transient carbonation of polyols under a CO2 atmosphere enables their C−H monoalkylation by photoredox catalysis. This reactivity results from an unprecedented C−H activation through intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

adipic acid from renewable biomass is a very attractive goal of sustainable chemistry. Herein, we report efficientcatalysts for a two‐step transformation of cellulose‐derived glucose into adipic acid via glucaric acid. Carbon nanotube‐supported platinum nanoparticles are found to work efficiently for the oxidation of glucose to glucaric acid. An activated carbon‐supported bifunctional catalyst composed
