Sugars (glucose and xylose) can be converted into dioxolanes which phase separate from water. These dioxolanes can be heterolytically cleaved which acts as a controlled dehydration reaction which results in ring closing of the subsequent structure to furans such as 5-hydr
This technology allows for the utilization of butanediol isomers to form a range of C4 oxygenated compounds as renewably sourced feedstocks for fuels and chemicals production in a range of industrial applications.
The diol compound derived from fermentation broth 2,3-butanediol (BDO) can be used as a feedstock for sustainable liquid fuel generation.
