Transformations of ethanol by homogeneous catalysis for creation of advanced biofuels
We propose and elucidate mechanisms of two methods for transformation of ethanol into longer-chain higher alcohols, specifically butanol, for use as advanced biofuels capable of being "drop-in" replacements to petrol. The first method involves dehydration of ethanol to ethylene at low temp...
