Zhou, Chao-Zheng published the artcileUtilization of renewable formic acid from lignocellulosic biomass for the selective hydrogenation and/or N-methylation, Related Products of isoquinoline, the main research area is tetrahydroquinoline preparation; quinoline formic acid hydrogenation; formic acid quinoline methylation; indoline preparation; indole formic acid methylation; dimethyl aniline preparation; aniline formic acid methylation.

Herein, the utilization of renewable formic acid from lignocellulosic biomass as a hydrogen source and a carbon source for the selective hydrogenation and further N-methylation of various quinolines and the derivatives I (Y = CH, N; R = H, 6-Br, 2,3-(Me)2, 6-Cl, etc.), 1,10-phenanthroline, 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and 2,7-dimethyl-pyrido[2,3-g]quinoline, various indoles II (R1 = 2-Me, 5-Br, 6-F, etc.) under mild conditions in high efficiencies were developed. N-methylation of various anilines R2C6H4NHCH3 (R2 = H, 2-Cl, 3-Me, 4-OMe, etc.) and R2C6H4NH2 is also developed. Mechanistic studies indicate that the hydrogenation occurs via a transfer hydrogenation pathway.
