Abstract
The catalytic hydrogenation of esters and carboxylic acids represents a fundamental and important class of organic transformations, which is widely applied in energy, environmental, agricultural, and pharmaceutical industries. Due to the low reactivity of the carbonyl group in carboxylic acids and esters, this type of reaction is, however, rather challenging. Hence, specifically active catalysts are required to achieve a satisfactory yield. Nevertheless, in recent years, remarkable progress has been made on the development of catalysts for this type of reaction, especially heterogeneous catalysts, which are generally dominating in industry. Here in this review, we discuss the recent breakthroughs as well as milestone achievements for the hydrogenation of industrially important carboxylic acids and esters utilizing heterogeneous catalysts. In addition, related catalytic hydrogenations that are considered of importance for the development of cleaner energy technologies and a circular chemical industry will be discussed in detail. Special attention is paid to the insights into the structure-activity relationship, which will help the readers to develop rational design strategies for the synthesis of more efficient heterogeneous catalysts.

Copper phyllosilicate-derived ultrafine copper nanoparticles with plenty of Cu 0and Cu + for the enhanced catalytic performance of ethylene carbonate hydrogenation to methanol.

Abstract
The hydrogenation of CO2-derived carbonates to methanol is an alternative route for the indirect utilization of abundant C1 sources. Various Cu/SiO2catalysts with different copper loading content prepared by using an ammonia evaporation hydrothermal method are implemented to evaluate the catalytic performance of ethylene carbonate (EC) hydrogenation to methanol and ethylene glycol (EG). The Cu loading content was identified to significantly affect the Cu nanoparticles (NPs) size and metal-support interaction. Highly dispersed Cu NPs restricted and embedded in copper phyllosilicate presented a smaller average particle size than the impregnated Cu/SiO2-IM catalyst. ThexCu/SiO2catalyst with ultrafine Cu NPs showed abundant Cu-O-Si interfaces, acidic sites, and coherent Cu0and Cu+species. The 5Cu/SiO2catalyst achieved methanol yield of 76% and EG yield of 98% at EC conversion of 99%, and no obvious deactivation was observed after long-term operation. The superior catalytic performance of the 5Cu/SiO2catalyst is attributed to the synergetic effect between the appropriate Cu0surface area which provides sufficient active hydrogen, and the atomic ratio of Cu+for the polarization and activation of carbon-oxygen bonds.
