Diamondoids are not forever: microbial biotransformation of diamondoid carboxylic acids
Summary Oil sands process‐affected waters (OSPW) contain persistent, toxic naphthenic acids (NAs), including the abundant yet little‐studied diamondoid carboxylic acids.

Facile synthesis of vinyl esters of aromatic carboxylic acids with participation of 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine [PDF]
In this work, the reaction of derivatives of benzoic acid containing substituents in the aromatic ring (1a-o) with 2-chloro-4,6dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (4) in the presence of N-methylmorpholine (6) has been synthesized active triazine esters of ...

Addition of dianions of carboxylic acids to imines. Influence of the acid in the outcome of the reaction [PDF]
The addition of different carboxylic acids dianions to N-benzylidenebenzeneamine have been studied. The outcome of the reaction depends on the acid. Saturated ones lead to β-aminoacids with good yields and syn-selectivity whereas α,β-unsaturated ones ...

Electricity-assisted production of caproic acid from grass [PDF]
Background: Medium chain carboxylic acids, such as caproic acid, are conventionally produced from food materials. Caproic acid can be produced through fermentation by the reverse beta-oxidation of lactic acid, generated from low value lignocellulosic ...

Diamondoid diacids ('O4' species) in oil sands process-affected water. [PDF]
RATIONALE: As a by-product of oil sands extraction, large volumes of oil sands process water (OSPW) are generated, which are contaminated with a large range of water-soluble organic compounds.

Production of medium-chain carboxylic acids by Megasphaera sp MH with supplemental electron acceptors [PDF]
Background: C5-C8 medium-chain carboxylic acids are valuable chemicals as the precursors of various chemicals and transport fuels. However, only a few strict anaerobes have been discovered to produce them and their production is limited to low ...

Valorization of Lignin by Partial Wet Oxidation Using Sustainable Heteropoly Acid Catalysts
The production of carboxylic acids by partial wet oxidation of alkali lignin at elevated temperatures and pressures was studied experimentally. Two different heteropoly acids, phosphotungstic acid (H3PW12O40) and phosphomolybdic acid (H3PMo12O40), were ...
