Lipase-catalyzed Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation ofcellulose-derived Levoglucosenone into(S)-gamma-hydroxymethyl-□alpha,beta□-butenolide:Optimization by Response SurfaceMethodology
Cellulose-derived levoglucosenone (LGO) has been efficiently converted into pure (S)-gamma-hydroxymethyl-alpha,beta-butenolide (HBO), a chemical platform suited for the synthesis of drugs, flavors and antiviral agents. This process involves two-steps: a lipase-catalyzed Baeyer-Villager oxidation of...
