title: Efficient aqueous hydrogenation of biomass platform molecules using supported metal nanoparticles on Starbons.
abstract: An efficient protocol for the hydrogenation of platform molecules (e.g. succinic acid) in aqueous environments using supported metal nanoparticles on polysaccharide derived mesoporous carbonaceous materials is reported for the first time.
