Disclosed are methods for synthesizing an ester or a carboxylic acid from an organic alcohol. To form the ester one reacts, in the presence of oxygen gas, the alcohol with methanol or ethanol. This reaction occurs in the presence of a catalyst comprising palladium and a co-catalyst comprising...
The intrinsic properties of ethanol Ethanol (PubChem CID: 702), also known as ethyl alcohol or simply alcohol, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C2H5OH. It consists of a two-carbon chain with a single hydroxyl (–OH) group attached to one carbon atom, while the rest of ...
There are two routes of HMF oxidation to FDCA (Fig. 1): (1) the aldehyde group of HMF is oxidized to form a carboxylic acid, thus yielding 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furoic acid (HMFA); then HMF acid is oxidized to yield 5-formyl-2-furoic acid (FFA) and FDCA, and (2) the alcohol group...
This oxidation is mediated by iron (III) ions in 20-24 h or nitric acid diluted in alcohol in 2-10 h at room temperature.doi:10.1080/00397910008087169Patrocínio, Amauri F.Moran, Paulo J. S.Taylor & FrancisCheminformDirect conversion of acylsilanes to esters mediated by iron(III) and ...
to the geminal diol. The latter is dehydrogenated to give formic acid, which decomposes to CO2and H2in an exergonic catalytic follow-up reaction. Formally, water serves as the oxygen donor in the overall alcohol oxygenation to CO2, with release of H2as the desired product (Fig. 1c)37. ...

Levulinic acid (also known as 4-oxopentanoic acid) is a high-boiling point biomass-derived acid, soluble in many industrial solvents (such as alcohol, ether, and organic solvents). This platforme molecule has two reactive functional groups (ketone and carboxylic acid) giving it functionality and...
Allyl formate is substantially selectively converted to isobutyric acid, n-butyric acid and/or glutaric acid by bringing the alyl formate into contact with activated carbon in the presence of carbon m
