Pentyl valerate biofuel from γ-valerolactone in one-pot process: Insights on the key role of acid sites of the catalytic support
In this work the acid-catalysed reactions involved in the one-pot production of pentyl valerate (PV) from γ-valerolactone (GVL) and pentanol in liquid phase at 523 K, 10 bar of N2 over acidic catalysts was studied. Two consecutive acid-catalysed reactions must be performed: (1) nucleophilic addition...
