Title:
NEO ACIDS AND DERIVATIVES THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/114459
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides neo acids (NAs) and derivatives thereof. Also provided is a method for producing a NA, comprising hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of a furan- containing neo acid (FNA) in the presence a metal triflate and a hydrogenation catalyst. The NA production method may further comprise hydroxyalkylation/alkylation (HAA) of 2-alkylfuran with levulinic acid or pyruvic acid in the presence of an acid catalyst, and at least one of 2-alkylfuran, levulinic acid and pyruvic acid may be from a renewable carbon source. The NA may have a bio-based content in the range of 20-100% according to, for example, ASTM-D6866. Further provided are methods for producing branched alkanes (BAs), tertrahydrofuran-containing neo acid (THFNA) and furan- containing neo ester (FNE) and side products such as iso acids (IAS).
