Regeneration of supported ruthenium catalyst
Walter M. Kruse,Leon W. Wright +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a supported ruthenium catalyst which has been used for conversion of carbohydrates to polyhydric alcohols is regenerated by contacting the catalyst with an aqueous solution of a mineral acid, such as sulfuric, hydrochloric, or phosphoric acid.
Patent
Etherification process for hexitols and anhydrohexitols
TL;DR: In this paper, a high yield polyalkylation of hexitols and hexitol inner ethers is presented, where aqueous dispersions of monoalkali metal alkoxides thereof in organic solvent are reacted with alkyl monohalides to first form the monoalkylated inner ether and thereafter further alkylated by addition of reactants.
Patent
Homogeneous hydrogenation of saccharides using ruthenium triphenyl phosphine complex
TL;DR: In this article, a homogeneous hydrogenation process for derivatives of monosaccharides, disaccharide, trisacide, polysaccharide and corn starch hydrolyzate is described.
Patent
Homogeneous hydrogenation process
TL;DR: In this paper, a homogeneous homogeneous hydrogenation process for derivatives of compounds having one of the following formulas is described: a solution of one of these compounds with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst comprising a ruthenium triphenyl phosphine complex and a strong acid.
