According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of producing furan carboxylates from aldaric acids in the presence of a solid heterogeneous catalyst and a solvent with short reaction time. The feedstock for the production is a stable compound, which allows industrial scaling of the process. Solid acid catalyst and sustainable solvent provide considerable reduction of toxic waste compared to traditional methods, and recyclability.
根据本发明的一个示例方面,提供了一种在固体异质催化剂和短反应时间的溶剂存在下,从阿尔达酸中生产
呋喃羧酸酯的方法。生产的原料是一种稳定的化合物,可以实现工业化规模化生产过程。与传统方法相比,固体酸催化剂和可持续溶剂可大幅减少有毒废物的产生,并具有可回收性。
