Glyoxylic acid: synthesis, isolation, and crystallization

Production of Glyoxylate from Glucose in Engineered Escherichia coli

“…As a carboxylate, glyoxylate is of considerable interest owing to its functional properties [9,10]. Typical glyoxylate molecules harboring both aldehyde and carboxyl groups exhibit flexible chemical interactions.…”

Recent advances in glycerol valorization via electrooxidation: Catalyst, mechanism and device

“…Further oxidation of GA can produce glyoxylic acid (GXA) with a five-electron transfer and oxalic acid (OA) with a seven-electron transfer [85]. GXA can be used as important chemical intermediates for chemical additives, pharmaceuticals as well as cosmetics [86], and OA is a commodity chemical used in a variety of applications, including complexing agents, precipitation agents, chemical intermediates and etc [85,87]. Another important C1 platform molecule that can be produced from glycerol is formic acid (FA) [88,89], another commodity chemical widely used in various fields, such as food additives, reductants, chemical intermediates and solvents [8].…”

Development of p-block adatom-modified platinum electrocatalysts for the electrochemical conversion of glycerol in alkaline medium

“…Glyoxylic acid is mainly produced from the nitric acid oxidation of glyoxal, and it is mainly used as a reagent in fine organic synthesis. 39 It has been detected in a mixture of oxidation products from the electrochemical conversion of glycerol, both in acidic and alkali media, however, no reports on yield or selectivity have been made. 17 Oxalic acid is another widely used compound, mainly in the agricultural and pharmaceutical sectors, and it is only obtainable from several possible chemical routes.…”
