Selective Stereoretention of Carbohydrates upon C−C Cleavage Enabling D‐Glyceric Acid Production with High Optical Purity over a Ag/γ‐Al2O3 Catalyst

Chiral carboxylic acid production from renewable biomass by chemocatalysis is vitally important for reducing our carbon footprint, but remains underdeveloped. We herein establish a strategy that make use of a stereogenic center of biomass to achieve a rare example of D‐glyceric acid production with...
