Efficient strategies for producing bio-based reagents from sustainable biomass are highly attractive for cost-effective sustainable manufacturing. In this study, a series of eco-friendly Zr-based catalysts (basic zirconium carbonate, zirconium dioxide and zirconium hydroxide) were investigated for the efficient conversion of dihydroxyacetone to ethyl lactate in a one-pot system, in which basic zirconium carbonate exhibited the best performance with 100% dihydroxyacetone conversion and 85.3% EL (ethyl lactate) yield at 140 °C, 4.0 h and 1.0 MPa N2. The improved activity of basic zirconium carbonate could be attributed to the synergistic effect among acid and base active sites. Furthermore, this low-cost catalyst shows improved thermochemical stability and recyclability under optimal conditions, where no significant decrease in activity was observed after three runs. This catalytic process could be identified as a promising alternative to produce ethyl lactate from renewable biomass and its derivatives.

A Negishi cross-coupling of α-hydroxy ester derivatives and arylzinc reagents has been developed. This reaction tolerates both primary and secondary C(sp3)–O alcohol precursors and achieves efficient cross-coupling under Ni catalysis without the need for added external metal reductant, photocatalyst, or additives. The arylation of readily accessible C(sp3)–O electrophiles in this operationally simple, rapid, and mild reaction provides a complementary way of accessing desirable α-aryl ester products.

Paragraph 0084-0085, (2020/06/30)
The invention relates to a method for preparing lactate. The method comprises the following steps: contacting pyruvic aldehyde and alcohol with a catalyst in a reactor, and reacting to obtain a lactate-containing product, wherein the molar ratio of the pyruvic aldehyde to the alcohol is 1:(20-225), the reaction temperature is 30-180 DEG C, the reaction time is 1-10 hours, the catalyst contains a mixture of a titanium-silicon molecular sieve and a tin-silicon molecular sieve, and the weight ratio of the pyruvic aldehyde to the mixture of the titanium-silicon molecular sieve and the tin-siliconmolecular sieve based on dry basis weight is 1:(0.1-6). The method provided by the invention has high pyruvic aldehyde conversion rate and high lactate yield.
