Catalyst Evolution Enhances Production of Xylitol from Acetal-Stabilized Xylose
Jeremy Luterbacher, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago, Benjamin Pierre Le Monnier, Jher Hau Yeap
We demonstrate a catalytic process for xylitol production based on the volatility and unique reactivity of diformylxylose (DFX), which can be produced at near theoretical yield from biomass and, contrary to xylose, can be easily purified by distillation. T ...
2020Stabilization strategies in biomass depolymerization using chemical functionalization
Jeremy Luterbacher, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago
A central feature of most lignocellulosic-biomass-valorization strategies is the depolymerization of all its three major constituents: cellulose and hemicellulose to simple sugars, and lignin to phenolic monomers. However, reactive intermediates, generally ...
NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP2020Catalytic valorization of the acetate fraction of biomass to aromatics and its integration into the carboxylate platform
Jeremy Luterbacher, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago, Benjamin Pierre Le Monnier, Jher Hau Yeap, Bartosz Rozmyslowicz, Ahmed Mohamed Ibrahim Elkhaiary
In many plant species, the acetate fraction is the fourth most prominent fraction by weight after cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, and can be easily extracted as a single stable molecule, acetic acid, at high yields. Despite this, upgrading the acetate ...
