Chitosan as a sustainable heterogeneous catalyst for the preparation of functionalized α-diazo carbonyl compounds
The food industry generates vast amounts of waste and one of the most abundant is the biopolymer chitin, which is the main constituent of crustacean shells and insect exoskeletons. The alkaline deacetylation of the N-acetyl-d-glucosamino units of chitin leads to chitosan, a stable, inexpensive, non-...
