Mechanism of MTO-Catalyzed Deoxydehydration of Diols to Alkenes Using Sacrificial Alcohols
Shuo Liu,Aysegul Senocak,Jessica L. Smeltz,Linan Yang,Benjamin L. Wegenhart,Jing Yi,Hilkka I. Kenttämaa,Elon A. Ison,Mahdi M. Abu-Omar +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a catalytic deoxydehydration of vicinal diols is carried out employing methyltrioxorhenium (MTO) as the catalyst and a sacrificial alcohol as the reducing agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
From Furfural to Fuel: Synthesis of Furoins by Organocatalysis and their Hydrodeoxygenation by Cascade Catalysis
Benjamin L. Wegenhart,Linan Yang,Soon Cheong Kwan,Remi Harris,Hilkka I. Kenttämaa,Mahdi M. Abu-Omar +5 more
TL;DR: The use of a Pd/Zeolite-β catalyst under more extreme conditions resulted in the complete hydrodeoxygenation of 5,5'-dimethylfuroin to dodecanes in high yields and exceptional selectivity for n-dodecane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Properties and Reactivity of Gaseous Distonic Radical Ions with Aryl Radical Sites
TL;DR: The focus of this review is on gaseous ions with one or more aryl radical sites, a subgroup of distonic radical cations that have a phenyl radical site spatially separated from a chemically inert charge site.
Journal ArticleDOI
On-line mass spectrometric methods for the determination of the primary products of fast pyrolysis of carbohydrates and for their gas-phase manipulation.
Matthew R. Hurt,John C. Degenstein,Piotr Gawecki,David J. Borton,Nelson R. Vinueza,Linan Yang,Rakesh Agrawal,W. Nicholas Delgass,Fabio H. Ribeiro,Hilkka I. Kenttämaa +9 more
TL;DR: The primary fast pyrolysis products were determined to consist of only a handful of compounds that quickly polymerize to form anhydro-oligosaccharides when allowed to react at high temperatures for an extended period of time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Speciation and kinetic study of iron promoted sugar conversion to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and levulinic acid (LA)
Yuan Jiang,Linan Yang,Christine M. Bohn,Guannan Li,Dong Han,Nathan S. Mosier,Jeffrey T. Miller,Hilkka I. Kenttämaa,Mahdi M. Abu-Omar +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a kinetic study of sugar conversion indicated that the water-MeTHF biphasic system hinders the conversion of sugars to humins and unknown byproducts and increases the yields of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and levulinic acid (LA).
