Popis: Despite the potential advantages of using polar aprotic solvents for biomass upgrading reactions, fundamental understanding of these solvation effects is limited at present. Here, the authors show that further increases in catalyst performance in polar aprotic solvents can be achieved through the addition of inorganic salts.
