Conversion of Sugars to Lactic Acid Derivatives Using Heterogeneous Zeotype Catalysts

Holm, Martin Spangsberg, Saravanamurugan, Shunmugavel, Taarning, Esben·2010·Science

Abstract

Approaching Lactate Inorganically: Conversion of biomass to value-added chemical compounds currently relies in large part on fermentation. For full-scale displacement of petroleum as the chemical industry's primary feedstock, alternative conversion technologies will be necessary. Holm et al. (p. 602 ) have found that Lewis acidic zeolite derivatives suspended in methanol can catalyze the selective conversion of glucose, fructose, and sucrose sugars to methyl lactate, a versatile synthetic intermediate for commercial products. The catalysts were easily separated from product mixtures and proved robust over six reaction and regeneration cycles.

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.
