Oxy‐gone in a tandem : A catalytic system composed of metal nanoparticles (NPs) and a functionalized Brønsted acidic ionic liquid (IL), both of which are immobilized in a nonfunctionalized IL, is highly efficient in upgrading lignin‐derived phenolic compounds into alkanes; the hydrogenation and dehydration reactions take place in tandem.
