As the search for non-fossil based building blocks for the chemical industry increases, new methods for the deoxygenation of biomass-derived substrates are required. Here we present the deoxygenation of lactic acid to propionic acid, using a catalyst based on the non-noble and abundant metal molybdenum under relatively mild reactive distillation conditions (200– 270 C). Good yields of sodium propionate (up to 41%) can be obtained with either ...
