Valeric acid decarboxylative ketonization to 5-nonanone followed by hydrodeoxygenation into n-nonane over Pd and Pt catalysts in H2 atmosphere was studied. Both catalytic reactions were studied separately in order to be performed thereafter in a cascade mode over the best bifunctional catalyst, which turned out to be Pt(Pd)/MxOy.
