Abstract

For the first time, a reductive alkylation process in continuous flow has been elaborated for the conversion of bio-based alcohols and aldehydes into symmetrical and dissymmetrical high-value-added ethers for industrial companies. The developed method is an etherification associating liquid, solid and gas phases under green conditions (continuous flow, catalysis, bio-based starting materials).
