Hydrolysis of cellulose by the heteropoly acid H3PW12O40 (2010, background): “Cellulose composed of a b-1, 4-glycosidic bond of D-glucose (Fan et al. 1987) could be primarily converted into monosaccharides such as glucose, a major platform for the synthesis of a variety of chemicals (Chheda et al. 2007; Corma et al. 2007 ), fuels, medicines and foods.”
Photocatalytic conversion of biomass-based monosaccharides to lactic acid by ultrathin porous oxygen doped carbon nitride (2021, background): “[18] Lactic acid can be used as precursors to prepare biodegradable polymers (polylactic acid) [19] and other commodity chemicals [20-22] (e.”
