Method for preparing an acetal-protected sugar involving the step of reacting a diol group of a sugar selected from the group consisting of an aldopentose and an aldohexose with one or two compounds of formula (Ia) and/or (Ib) in the presence of a homogeno ...

Industrial lignin oxidation has been used for vanillin production but is largely uncontrolled, not fully understood mechanistically, and leads to low yield. Here, we have demonstrated high-efficiency vanillin and syringaldehyde production from lignin via g ...

The present invention relates to a method for preparing an at least partially acetal-protected sugar involving the step of reacting a sugar or a sugar derivative selected from the group consisting of an aldopentose, an aldohexose, an aldopentoside and an a ...

Diol functionalization with acetals in carbohydrates and polyols is ubiquitously used in protection chemistry and in the manufacture of several platform chemicals. However, the selective functionalization of molecules where multiple acetalization reactions ...
