Obtaining a high value branched bio-alkane from biomass-derived levulinic acid using RANEY® as hydrodeoxygenation catalyst
A high value branched angelica lactone bio-alkane from biomass-derived levulinic acid gives nearly 90% hydrodeoxygenation yield under 483 K and 5 MPa H2 and the C10 branched alkane product, 3-ethyl-4-methyl heptane, accounts for 75% of the same.
