Abstract:Renewable carbohydrates are nearly inexhaustible libraries of chemical building blocks, and significant research efforts have been devoted to their valorization to valuable chemicals in the past decades. The commonly recognized main transformation routes include dehydration and C−C bond cleavage pathways, which lead to the production of conventional platform chemicals such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural/furfural, lactic acid/lactates, and so on. With the huge availability of carbohydrates on earth, the production … Show more
High-quality liquid biofuels can be produced from renewable lignin-derived phenolic compounds through the efficient hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) process, in which the traditional catalysts usually include metal site and acid site that...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
