Synthesis of Levulinic Acids From Muconic Acids in Hot Water

Céderic Ver Elst,
Robby Vroemans,
Mathias Bal
et al.

Abstract: Levulinic acid is a key biorenewable platform molecule. Its current chemical production from sugars is plagued by limited yields, char formation and difficult separations. An alternative and selective route starting from muconic acid via simple heating in water at high temperature (180 °C) has been developed. Muconic acid can be obtained from sugars or catechol fermentation. Chemical oxidation of catechol is another possibility which advantageously can also be applied on substituted catechols, hereby providing… Show more
