Abstract
The reactivity of the biobased chemical levulinic acid with dimethylcarbonate as a solvent/reagent under basic conditions is here described. The reaction yields methyl levulinate and dimethyl succinate, along with products that derive from methylation of the aliphatic chain and the dimethylketal
