Green synthesis of linear alkylbenzenes via Diels−Alder cycloaddition between furan and linear alkenes over niobic acid catalyst
The synthesis of linear alkylbenzenes (LABs) from biomass-derived furan and linear alkenes via Diels−Alder cycloaddition followed by acid-catalyzed dehydration is presented. Furan was reacted with 1-dodecene, the alkene model compound, over the niobic acid catalyst in a laboratory-scale batch reacto...
