A Direct, Biomass-Based Mixture of Benzoic Acid: Formic Acid-Mediated Deoxygenation of the Glucose-Derived Materials Quinic Acid and Shikimic Acid <<>>
Written by Elena Arceo, Jonathan A. Ellman, Robert G. Bergman on May 28, 2010 – 1:17 am -Shikimic Gimmick: An option biomass-based route to benzoic acid from the renewable starting materials quinic acid and shikimic acid is described. Benzoic acid is obtained selectively using a very efficient, one-step formic acid-mediated deoxygenation method <<>>
