Efficient and sustainable transformation of gamma-valerolactone into nylon monomers

Abstract

Herein, we reported the facile synthesis of dicarboxylic esters from biomass derived gamma-valerolactone (GVL) aiming for nylon monomer preparation via a novel synthetic route which improved the efficiency and overcame the need for toxic carbon monoxide for the synthesis of dicarboxylic esters from GVL.
