Selective Catalytic Oxidation of Glycerol to Dihydroxyacetone

Selective Catalytic Oxidation of Glycerol to Dihydroxyacetone

High selectivity and high yield characterize the oxidation of glycerol into dihydroxyacetone using catalyst 1, with benzoquinone or air as the oxidant. The mechanism proposed involves reversible palladium‐alkoxide formation with the turnover‐limiting reoxidation of the palladium complex.
