Green Chemistry for Ketones and Aldehydes Production (No. T4-1722)

5596
Overview

A novel green chemistry approach for producing ketones and aldehydes through an oxidative cleavage reaction. The process utilizes polyoxometalate (POM) catalysts to achieve aerobic cleavage of carbon-carbon double bonds in alkene. 

Applications
  • Industrial organic chemistry processes for oxidation reactions.
  • Renewable feedstock processing, such as unsaturated fatty acid derivatives.
  • Stand-alone catalysts for laboratory or individual use.
Differentiation
  • Scalable
  • Use renewable resources as feedstock
  • Environmentally Friendly
  • Easy catalyst regeneration

Development Stage

A proof of concept was demonstrated on a lab scale.
