Production of Reducing Sugar from Macroalgae Saccharina japonica Using Ionic Liquid Catalyst

Biodiesel production from soybean oil using ionic liquid as a catalyst in a microreactor

In the present study, Choline hydroxide (ChOH) as an ionic liquid catalyst was used for transesterification of soybean oil into biodiesel in a microchannel reactor. The effects of three variables i.e. reaction temperature, catalyst dosage and total flow rate on fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) content (wt. %) were optimized using Box–Behnken experimental design. In order to predict the FAME conte...

Friedel-Crafts alkylation of Phenol using Ionic Liquid as Catalyst

Synthesis of densely functionalized chromenes using a magnetic recoverable ionic liquid as the catalyst

In the present study, robust, versatile and straightforward strategy for the diversity-oriented convergent synthesis of a vast range of highly functionalized and biologically effective chromenes is introduced with the reaction of malononitrile, dimedone/cyclohexadione/4-hydroxycoumarin and benzaldehydes in the presence of [γ-Fe2O3@HAp-Si(CH2)3BF4@DMIM] as the catalyst. The structures of all the...

Aromatics extraction from pyrolytic sugars using ionic liquid to enhance sugar fermentability.

Fermentative bioethanol production from pyrolytic sugars was improved via aromatics removal by liquid-liquid extraction. As solvents, the ionic liquid (IL) trihexyltetradecylphosphonium dicyanamide (P666,14[N(CN)2]) and ethyl acetate (EA) were compared. Two pyrolytic sugar solutions were created from acid-leached and untreated pinewood, with levoglucosan contents (most abundant sugar) of 29.0% ...

Application of Acidic Ionic Liquid as a Solvent/Catalyst for Preparation of α-Oximinoketones from β-Dicarbonyl Compounds

The selective nitrosation of β-dicarbonyl compounds with sodium nitrite was carried out under1-methyl-3-carboxymethylimidazolium chloride, prepared from N-methylimidazole andchloroacetic acid, as an acidic ionic liquid. The reaction was found to proceed under relativelymild conditions with excellent conversion and selectivity. The ionic liquid was recycled andreused.
