Synthesis of cyclic carbonates from CO 2 and propylene oxide (PO) with deep eutectic solvents (DESs) based on amino acids (AAs) and dicarboxylic acids

Removal of Dibenzothiophene from Diesels by Extraction and Catalytic Oxidation with Acetamide‐Based Deep Eutectic Solvents

“…According to the results of some previous works, the compositions of the DESs play a vital role for their physicochemical properties , , , , . Different desulfurization systems of acetamide‐based DESs with various molar proportions of acetamide and p ‐TsOH were investigated (Fig.…”

“…The C 2 H 5 NO/3 p ‐TsOH demonstrated a remarkable desulfurization activity. In agreement with our previous work, there is a correlation between the composition and chemical properties , , , , . Finally, the C 2 H 5 NO/3 p ‐TsOH system demonstrating the best oxidation desulfurization activity was chosen for further research.…”

Synthesis of a Renewable, Waste‐Derived Nonisocyanate Polyurethane from Fish Processing Discards and Cashew Nutshell‐Derived Amines

“…In this work, a lower reaction temperature was screened (90 °C) with an intermediate TBAB loading (4.2 mol%) and this led to a lower conversion of 49% (Table 2, Entry 3). Carbonation of EFO was also attempted by adding a deep eutectic solvent (DES) of choline chloride and oxalic acid, as other DESs have been shown to synthesize cyclic carbonates from propylene oxide, [ 16 ] but no CFO was formed. Ascorbic acid has previously been used to make small molecule organic carbonates such as propylene carbonate.…”

“…Ascorbic acid has previously been used to make small molecule organic carbonates such as propylene carbonate. [ 16 ] It can be renewably sourced or produced industrially using sustainable methods. [ 17 ] Using 8.7 mol% TBAB and 8.3 mol% ascorbic acid resulted in effectively complete epoxide conversion (Table S3 (Supporting Information), Entry 4).…”

Green aerobic oxidative desulfurization of diesel by constructing an Fe-Anderson type polyoxometalate and benzene sulfonic acid-based deep eutectic solvent biomimetic cycle

“…Their physicochemical properties are similar to those of traditional ionic liquids, but they have the advantage of being cheap and biodegradable. Recently, the use of DESs as extractants and catalysts has been widely studied because of their special properties, non-toxicity and harmless characteristics [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27].…”
