Catalytic reductive amination of α-hydroxy carbonyl oxygenates Selective production of bio-based aliphatic amines KU Leuven
Aliphatic amines embody a diverse class of amines, encompassing alkanolamines, (AAs), alkyl polyamines (PAs) and aliphatic heterocyclic amines such as piperazine. Their structural diversity makes aliphatic amines of great industrial importance in almost every field of chemistry, medicine, technology and agriculture. However, the current aliphatic amine industry is facing pressing sustainability, health and safety issues. Notably, all these ...
