Synthesis and kinetic modeling of functionalized oxymethylene ethers (f-OMEs) based on lactic acid derivatives and formaldehyde
Victor Kühnpast, Marius Drexler, Nina Kräber, Falk Rohloff, Thomas A. Zevaco, Ulrich Arnold, Jörg SauerA synthesis strategy for novel acetals with ester end groups as building blocks is developed. This study includes experiments performed in a batch reactor and a fixed-bed reactor, kinetic modeling and product characterization.
