Bodachivskyi, Iurii published the artcileMetal triflates are tunable acidic catalysts for high yielding conversion of cellulosic biomass into ethyl levulinate, Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate, the main research area is metal triflate acidic catalyst ethyl levulinate cellulosic yielding conversion.
Metal triflates and their mixtures with Bronsted acids are excellent catalysts for the selective and high yielding transformation of microcrystalline cellulose into Et levulinate, in ethanol, producing synergistic catalyst effects in some instances. The pretreatment of raw and unrefined cellulosic materials with a deep eutectic solvent enables similarly excellent catalyzed conversion thereof into Et levulinate in superb yield (up to 75%) and selectivity (up to 88%). When using fermentation-derived ethanol, the product possesses 100% renewable content.
Fuel Processing Technology published new progress about Acid catalysis. 539-88-8 belongs to class esters-buliding-blocks, name is Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate, and the molecular formula is C7H12O3, Recommanded Product: Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate.
