Facile and Efficient Conversion of Furfuryl Alcohol into n-Butyl Levulinate Catalyzed by Extremely Low Acid Concentration
Alkyl levulinates have been identified as promising chemicals with various industrial applications. Here, a catalytic process for the synthesis in an n-butanol medium of n-butyl levulinate via the alcoholysis of biomass-derived furfuryl alcohol was performed using an extremely low concentration of s...
