“…, entries 8, 9). Since we were initially also interested in developing a continuous synthesis for glycidol, the recent work of Tao and coworkers seemed of high relevance. Tetraethylammonium amino acid ionic liquids were reported as efficacious catalysts for the one‐pot neat synthesis of glycidol, starting from glycerol and DMC under reflux conditions.…”

With glycerol being a bulk waste product, the interest in converting it to other value‐added products is steadily increasing. A scalable continuous flow process was developed for the synthesis of glycerol carbonate (2‐GLC) from glycerol and dimethyl carbonate on a hydroxide functional resin. High conversion and selectivity were obtained while the residence times were typically shorter than 10 min. Continuous production of 2‐GLC was achieved in high throughput and with improved processing metrics, creating the foundations for a production level process.

“…There are several routes for the synthesis of glycidol (see Scheme 3) [12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21]. Industrial production of glycidol is based on the epoxidation of allyl alcohol with hydrogen peroxide or on the conversion of glycerol into glycerol monochlorohydrin and its subsequent conversion into glycidol under the action of a strong base (e.g., KOH) [12,13].…”

Polyglycidol (or polyglycerol) is a biocompatible polymer with a main chain structure similar to that of poly(ethylene oxide) but with a -CH 2 OH reactive side group in every structural unit. The hydroxyl groups in polyglycidol not only increase the hydrophilicity of this polymer but also allow for its modification, leading to polymers with carboxyl, amine, and vinyl groups, as well as to polymers with bonded aliphatic chains, sugar moieties, and covalently immobilized bioactive compounds in particular proteins. The paper describes the current state of knowledge on the synthesis of polyglycidols with various topology (linear, branched, and star-like) and with various molar masses. We provide information on polyglycidol-rich surfaces with protein-repelling properties. We also describe methods for the synthesis of polyglycidol-containing copolymers and the preparation of nano-and microparticles that could be derived from these copolymers. The paper summarizes recent advances in the application of polyglycidol and polyglycidol-containing polymers as drug carriers, reagents for diagnostic systems, and elements of biosensors.

“…Furthermore, glycerol itself is very inexpensive and most use needs added refining process. Later, the glycerol transformation to other important synthetic substances like esters of glycerol, glycerol carbonate, propane diols, glyceric acid, and acrolein will create included an incentive for glycerol, yet additionally advance biodiesel generation [5] [7] [8].…”

The surplus glycerol produced from biodiesel production process as a by-product with high quantity can be considered as a good source to prepare glycerol carbonate (GC) whereas with each 1000 kg from biodiesel obtains 100 kg from glycerol. The aim of this paper is studying the possibility of converting the glycerol to glycerol carbonate using the bio-char prepared from reed plant as a catalyst. The catalyst was prepared at different temperatures ranging from 400-800°C. The results show that the bio-char prepared at 700 ᴼC gives a best one among the others types of bio-char, but the yield was increased to 67.80% using prepared bio-char and when the catalyst promoted by sodium hydroxide, the obtained yield reached to 98.3% and complete conversion. In this study, the complete conversion was achieved at optimum conditions which were 60ᴼC, 90 min, 3:1 DMC:G , 3%wt. catalyst loading and using bio-char modified with 3 molar NaOH .
