Selective Catalysis of Lactic Acid to Produce Commodity Chemicals
Abstract
Owning to its biobased organic acid, low cost and multiple reactive functionalities as it contains both one carboxylic acid group and hydroxyl group, lactic acid has been described as a commodity chemical sleeping giant. In this review, the conversion of lactic acid to other important commodity chemicals, such as, poly L‐lactic acid, acrylic acid, 2, 3‐pentanedione, pyruvic acid, propanoic acid, 1, 2‐propanediol, acetaldehyde, ethyl lactate, using chemical or biological catalysts, and the economy analysis of conversions are depicted. The conversion would provide a new way for the solution of the present oil crisis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
