Highly Efficient Conversion of Renewable Levulinic Acid to n-Butyl Levulinate Catalyzed by Sulfonated Magnetic Titanium Dioxide Nanotubes
A new solid acid catalyst Fe3O4@TNTs-SO3H was successfully prepared, characterized, and applied for efficient conversion of renewable levulinic acid to n-butyl levulinate, serving as a promising liquid fuel additive. This catalyst was demonstrated to show high catalytic activity and afford n-butyl levulinate with a yield of 94.6% under optimum conditions.
