A Heterogeneous Pt-ReOx/C Catalyst for Making Renewable Adipates in One Step from Sugar Acids

“…The produced acetone can be rehydrogenated to isopropanol with hydrogenation catalysts. For example, Raney nickel catalyst showed 99.9% conversion of acetone and 99.9% selectivity of isopropanol in the liquid phase . In addition to the conversion of isopropanol to acetone, dehydration of isopropanol also occurred, producing some of propene (0.2 mmol) and diisopropyl ether (1.8 mmol) in the reaction solution (Table S4).…”

Manufacturing Energy and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Associated with United States Consumption of Organic Petrochemicals

“…Alcohols and diols are an important class of chemicals as intermediates, for use in materials, and as solvents. Isopropanol, n -butanol, and isobutanol in particular are common solvents for industrial processes and use in household products such as inks and paints. These alcohols are used extensively as solvents due to their volatility, which enables facile removal, and their amphiphilic nature, which can compatibilize aqueous and organic mixtures.…”

Continuous Flow Upgrading of Selected C2–C6 Platform Chemicals Derived from Biomass

“…1-Propanol is manufactured at the industrial level from the reduction of propanal ( 21 ), itself produced from the hydroformylation of petro-based ethylene. It comes with a broad range of applications, including its use as a solvent . Zhu and coworkers demonstrated both the selective conversions of 1,2-PDO and 1,3-PDO into 1-propanol over a Cu–Ce–SBA catalyst .…”
