Unveiling Stereo‐Electronic Effects in Homogeneous Catalysis Integrating Theory and Experiments: the Potential of Dimeric Iron(III) Salen Complexes in Methyl Levulinate Transesterification

Fulvio Perrella,

Abstract: Biomass represents an abundant and renewable source of raw materials that can be effectively converted into intermediates and base chemicals. Among these, levulinic acid has garnered significant attention due to its direct derivation from lignocellulosic biomass and the presence of two functional groups, a carboxylic acid, and a ketone, enabling diverse transformations into valuable products. Levulinic acid esters have already found applications in various industrial sectors such as cosmetics, plasticizers, an… Show more

“…Using DFT potentials appears in this context the method of choice because of their good compromise between cost and accuracy, for both organic/biological 33,74–86 and inorganic/materials systems. 29,87–106 The cavity radius was determined using the equilibration procedure detailed in Section 2.2. NPBCs were enforced on the cavity by the conductor-like polarizable continuum model (C-PCM) self-consistent reaction field 107–110 ( via the ONIOM/PCM-X 111–113 formalism) and a dispersion–repulsion potential W disp–rep , 30–33,39,41,64,66–68 specifically designed by some of us for flexible solvents.…”
