Biomass conversion to value-added chemicals and fuels over heterogeneous catalysts is
one of the top issues in green chemistry. This review focuses on recent advances in the …

This Perspective addresses recent advances in isomerization of aldoses into ketoses
catalyzed by bases. In recent years, catalytic activity of a number of bases was reported, but …

The well-known interconversion of aldoses to their corresponding ketoses was discovered
more than a century ago, but has recently attracted renewed attention due to alternative …

This study delved into the effects of l-lysine (Lys) and l-arginine (Arg) on the gel properties
and intermolecular interactions of low-salt (NaCl, 1 g/100 g) mixed shrimp surimi (Antarctic …

The selective glucose isomerization to fructose is an essential step for various industrial
biofuels and biochemicals production. However, current biological and acid–base catalysis …

In this work, glucose isomerization to fructose was conducted via a solid base biochar
catalyst derived from spent coffee grounds and melamine. The X-ray photoelectron …

One-pot conversion of carbohydrate-derived biomass compounds to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural
(HMF) using an environmentally green solvent such as water is meritorious, yet challenging …

Glucose-to-fructose isomerization is the key process in the reaction sequence that can lead
to the total conversion of biomass into valuable fine chemicals. However, it is challenging to …

Glucose isomerization to fructose via Brønsted base catalysis is sparking increasing interest
due to the importance of fructose as a feedstock molecule for the production of renewable …
