New Reaction: Conversion of Glycerol into Acrylonitrile

A high‐value conversion: Acrylonitrile, a monomer in the manufacture of synthetic polymers, is typically produced from propylene. However, a new sustainable process has been developed in which glycerol, a renewable resource (by‐product in the manufacture of biodiesel), is treated with ammonia under...

Zusammenfassung:A high‐value conversion: Acrylonitrile, a monomer in the manufacture of synthetic polymers, is typically produced from propylene. However, a new sustainable process has been developed in which glycerol, a renewable resource (by‐product in the manufacture of biodiesel), is treated with ammonia under moderate reaction conditions to give this value‐added product.
