HMF derivatives as platform molecules: aqueous Baylis–Hillman reaction of glucosyloxymethyl-furfural towards new biobased acrylates

Abstract

A new type of biobased acrylates has been synthesized by a Baylis–Hillman reaction of alkylacrylates with α-D-glucosyloxymethyl-furfural (α-GMF), available in one step from isomaltulose. The reaction, performed in aqueous medium, was extended to other α,β-unsaturated substrates. The use of dimethylisosorbide as co-solvent was investigated.
