Sugar and alcohol—a superior combo : The telomerization activity of the Pd/TOMPP catalyst is screened using thirteen different biomass‐derived carbohydrates and sugar alcohols. High substrate conversions are achieved by using low Pd loading and without the use of an added base. In terms of butadiene conversion, a clear structure–activity relationship is found, which is in line with the series: sugar alcohols>sucrose>aldohexoses>aldopentoses>ketohexoses.
