RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 An unprecedented use for glycerol: chemoselective reducing agent for sulfoxides A1 García Bartolomé, Nuria A1 García García, Patricia A1 Fernández Rodríguez, Manuel A. A1 García, Daniel A1 Pedrosa Sáez, María de los Remedios A1 Arnáiz García, Francisco Javier A1 Sanz Díez, Roberto K1 Química orgánica K1 Chemistry, Organic AB A new application for glycerol that expands its possibilities beyond a green solvent and a precursor ofvalue-added products has been demonstrated. Simple, easily available, and environmentally friendly dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes are highly efficient catalysts for the chemoselective sulfoxide deoxygenationwith this biomass-derived chemical feedstock. Both refined glycerol and crude glycerin can be used, thusexpanding the potential application of this reaction. Subsequent transformation of glycerol during thisreductive process has also been investigated PB Royal Society of Chemistry YR 2013 FD 2013-02 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10259/3802 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10259/3802 LA eng NO Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion (MICINN), FEDER (CTQ2010-15358 and CTQ2009-09949/BQU), Junta de Castilla y Leon (BU021A09 and GR-172), MICINN ("Juan de la Cierva" and "Ramon y Cajal" contracts for P.G.-G. and M.A.F.-R.)
