📑A new paper is available on the CATCO2NVERS website! Title:  Insertion of CO2 to 2-methyl furoate promoted by a cobalt hypercrosslinked polymer catalyst to obtain a monomer of CO2-based biopolyesters Authors: Beatriz Fuerte, Elizabeth Rangel, Marta Iglesias and Eva M Maya Hernandez from CSIC ✍“ 2,5-Furan Dicarboxylic methyl Ester (FDME), a highly valued monomer for the synthesis of biobased polyesters, has been prepared through a new synthetic strategy that consists of the direct carboxylation of methyl furoate in two steps: the first one involves a solvent-free reaction using a moderate CO2 pressure (10 bar), a base (Cs2CO3) and a cobalt-based heterogeneous catalyst (HCP-Salphen-Co) for 6 h, which was prepared using mechanochemical polymerization (…)”. 🌐Read the full paper on our website: https://lnkd.in/dMUfeHyb #Catalytic #biopolymers #electrocatalysis #enzymatic #chemicals Funditec Wageningen University & Research CARTIF CSIC University of Twente Avantium PERSEO Biotechnology S.L.
