In this review, the metal-based catalyst design for the selective anthraquinone hydrogenation is cataloged into two significant strategies: active metal regulation and support property regulation.

The focus is on the catalytic performance-enhancing mechanism and the factors that influence the mechanism.

To understand the nature of the rate-determining steps (RDSs) of the ORR over newly developed catalysts, the analysis of the Tafel slopes of ORR voltammograms is beneficial for elucidating the number of electrons involved in the RDS. Conventionally, the Tafel slope is evaluated from the measured total current, which involves several different reaction pathways: the four-electron pathway from O<sub>2</sub> to H<sub>2</sub>O described with a kinetic constant <i>k</i><sub>1</sub>, the two-electron pathway from O<sub>2</sub> to H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> with <i>k</i><sub>2</sub>, and the two-electron pathway from H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> to H<sub>2</sub>O with <i>k</i><sub>3</sub>. This method provides reasonable Tafel slopes as long as the measured ORR is selective to a particular reaction pathway, such as the four-electron pathway over a Pt/C catalyst; however, typical Fe/N/C and N/C catalysts have mixed reaction pathways and analyzing the Tafel slopes from the total current does not provide meaningful information. To address this, we propose a new methodology for analyzing Tafel slopes. In this study, the measured ORR currents were converted into inherent kinetic constants (<i>k</i><sub>1</sub><sup>0</sup>, <i>k</i><sub>2</sub><sup>0</sup>, and <i>k</i><sub>3</sub><sup>0</sup>) using the Nabae model, which was previously developed by our group, and the Tafel plots for <i>k</i><sub>1</sub><sup>0</sup>, <i>k</i><sub>2</sub><sup>0</sup>, and <i>k</i><sub>3</sub><sup>0</sup> were analyzed to determine the Tafel slopes of each reaction pathway.

Both batch and continuous reactors have been recently applied. This reaction is very complex and a bifunctional catalyst exhibiting especially Lewis acid sites for cyclisation of citronellal to isopulegol are needed, while metal particles are required for its hydrogenation to menthols. Typically, too mild acidity of the catalyst and small particles do not catalyze menthol formation. Furthermore, too high acidity causes catalyst deactivation and dehydration of menthol. Very high menthol yields have been obtained in batch reactor over nobel and transition metal supported bifunctional catalysts. Shape selectivity was demonstrated for Ni-supported on Zr-modified beta zeolite, which gave high diastereoselectivity to the desired L-menthol. Recently one-pot synthesis of menthol in a trickle bed reactor has been investigated. Catalyst suffers only minor deactivation in transformation of citronellal to menthol, while more severe catalyst deactivation occurred in transforming citral to menthols. Noteworthy from the industrial point of view is that the product distribution obtained with the same catalyst under kinetic regime or under diffusional limitations differs from each other.
