Acid-Catalyzed Reactions of Isopropenyl Esters and Renewable Diols: A 100% Carbon Efficient Transesterification/Acetalization Tandem Sequence, from Batch to Continuous Flow
Abstract
A new acid-catalyzed tandem sequence was investigated for the upgrading of renewable 1,2-diols such as propylene glycol (PG) and ethylene glycol (EG), with isopropenyl esters. For example, at 50 °C...
