Rational Design of Solid Catalysts for the Selective Use of Glycerol as a Natural Organic Building Block

TL;DR: It is shown that heterogeneous catalysis offers efficient routes for bypassing the traditional use of highly toxic and expensive epichlorohydrin, 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol, or glycidol, which are usually used as a glyceryl donor in organic chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective etherification of glycerol to polyglycerols over impregnated basic MCM-41 type mesoporous catalysts

TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis and impregnation of mesoporous solids with different basic elements in order to make them active, selective and stable for the target reaction was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycerol transesterification with methyl stearate over solid basic catalysts. I. Relationship between activity and basicity

TL;DR: A comparison of several basic solids (MgO, CeO2, La2O3 and ZnO) has shown that the more significant the intrinsic basicity is, the more active the catalyst is as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Cu–ZnO synergy in methanol synthesis from CO2, Part 1: Origin of active site explained by experimental studies and a sphere contact quantification model on Cu + ZnO mechanical mixtures

TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model for quantification based on the geometry of spherical particle agglomerates was used to identify the active site of a catalytic particle. But the model was only applied to mechanical mixtures with variable composition and core-shell structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneously catalyzed etherification of glycerol: new pathways for transformation of glycerol to more valuable chemicals

TL;DR: Direct etherification of glycerol with alkyl alcohols, olefins and dibenzyl ethers was successfully catalyzed by acid functionalized silica, allowing the first catalytic access to valuable monoalkyl glyceryl ethers as mentioned in this paper.
