Softwood chips have been directly converted into sugar alcohols by supported platinum catalysts in water without any acid catalysts. The cellulose and hemicellulose in the wood chips were converted with 94% conversion and 62% yield and the lignin remained as solid after the reaction. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
