Conversion of D-Fructose into Ethyl Lactate Over a Supported SnO<sub>2</sub>–ZnO/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Catalyst
The study is directed to the search of a simple effective catalyst for ethyl lactate obtained from fructose as renewable raw material. A series of SnO<sub>2</sub>-containing oxides prepared by impregnation of alumina were characterized by several techniques in order to determine their te...

The study is directed to the search of a simple effective catalyst for ethyl lactate obtained from fructose as renewable raw material. A series of SnO<sub>2</sub>-containing oxides prepared by impregnation of alumina were characterized by several techniques in order to determine their textural and acid-base properties.

It was found that doping SnO<sub>2</sub>/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> samples with ZnO improves selectivity towards ethyl lactate. The supported SnO<sub>2</sub>-ZnO/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> catalyst provides 100% fructose conversion with 55% yield of ethyl lactate at 160 °C.
