Synthesis of renewable high-density fuels using cyclopentanone derived from lignocellulose

Abstract

By the combination of solvent-free aldol condensation and one-step hydrodeoxygenation under mild reaction conditions, a high-density (0.866 g mL−1) bicyclic C10 hydrocarbon was synthesized in high overall yield (up to 80%) using cyclopentanone derived from lignocellulose.
