(NHC, N-heterocyclic carbene)-catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of sustainable ethylene glycol and various bioalcohols can produce industrially valuable α-hydroxy acids (AHAs). This study is the first to report the sustainable synthesis of higher Cn AHAs, in addition to glycolic acid (C2 AHA) and lactic acid (C3 AHA). This catalytic system can be recycled to the seventh cycle while maintaining good

生物醇的脱氢偶联可以产生具有工业价值的α-羟基酸(AHA)。本研究首次报道了除
乙醇酸 (C 2 AHA) 和
乳酸 (C 3 AHA) 之外更高 C n AHA 的可持续合成。该催化系统可以循环到第七个循环,同时保持良好的收率。基于18 O- 和2H-标记实验和电子喷雾电离质谱 (ESI-MS) 和 NMR 光谱分析。
