Abstract Photocatalytic transfer hydrogenation of biomass‐derived aldehydes to alcohols often results in unwanted coupling co‐products. Herein, an ultraselective hydrogen system enabled by situ oxidative C─C bond cleavage over a Janus single‐atom palladium on titanium dioxide (0.5Pd/TiO 2 ) photocatalyst is presented. The TiO carrier promotes hydrogen‐donor activation, while Pd single atoms function as both electron and centers, enabling photocatalytic conversion bio‐based furfural furfuryl alcohol >99% yield using ethanol solvent/H‐donor at 25 °C. control/in experiments calculations reveal that 0.5Pd/TiO preferentially activates co‐formed by‐product undergo followed proton‐coupled transfer, exclusively producing alcohol. with good reusability applicable hydrogenative upgrading various aldehydes/diols into corresponding monoalcohols 81‒99% yields. This strategy offers new approach eliminate side reactions reductive unsaturated organics/biomass high selectivity.
