T-dependent aqueous-phase rate constants were determined for the oxidation of the
hydroxy aldehydes, glyceraldehyde, glycolaldehyde, and lactaldehyde, by the hydroxyl …

Reduction of fermentation-derived lactic acid (LA) offers a renewables-based pathway to
propylene glycol (PG), a large-scale commodity chemical, currently manufactured by the …

The formose reaction, one of the oldest name reactions in organic chemistry, uses
formaldehyde as a C1 unit resulting in different monosaccharides and sugar‐like …

In this study, the electrochemical conversion of xylose to δ‐valerolactone via carbonyl
intermediates is demonstrated. The conversion was achieved in aqueous media and at …

Equilibria and rates of interconversion between monomeric and dimeric glyoxal were
measured in aqueous solution. The equilibrium constant [G2]/[G1] 2 was 0.56 M− 1 at 25° C …

The carbonyl hydration equilibria of several atmospherically relevant carbonyl compounds
were studied using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and computationally …

Pure methanol dehydrogenase of Pseudomonas AMI oxidizes propanediol in a transitory
fashion when measured in a dye-linked assay with phenazine ethosulphate (PES) as …

The C2′-carbon–hydrogen bond in ribonucleotides is significantly weaker than other
carbohydrate carbon–hydrogen bonds in RNA or DNA. Independent generation of the C2 …

Two mechanisms are possible for the spontaneous hydrolysis of acetals derived from
salicylic acid: ¹ either there is an intramolecularly general-acid catalysed reaction of the un …

We have studied the effect of magnesium and lithium salts on the electroreduction of
benzophenone in DMF as solvent. Cyclic voltammetric studies and analysis of the products …
