Electrocatalytic amino acid synthesis from biomass-derivable keto acids over ball milled carbon nanotubes

Electrocatalytic reductive amination (ERA) offers an attractive way to synthesise organonitrogen chemicals from renewable feedstocks. Here, we report carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as an effective catalyst for the ERA of biomass-derivable α-keto acids into amino acids using NH 3 as the nitrogen source. Thr...
