Ru/C efficiently catalyzes the selective hydrogenolysis of sorbitol to ethylene glycol and propylene glycol in the presence of Ca(OH)2. This reaction proceeds by primary dehydrogenation of sorbitol to hexose intermediates as the rate-determining step, most likely via preferential activation of its C(5)–H bond on the Ru surfaces.
