N-methyl-D-glucose amine is an amine formed by reduction of glucosylamine or glucose oxime. N-alkylated glucamines are prepared from D-glucose and relevant alkylamines. Here synthesis of N-methyl-D-glucose amine by consecutive condensation of D-glucose with methylamine in ethanol media followed by reduction over Ni containing hyper crosslinked polystyrene is reported. In typical synthesis 50 g sample of D-glucose monohydrate was added to 150 ml of ethanol (96 wt.%) and stirred under 600 rpm for 30 minutes. Suspens...

In this study, a procedure was developed for the synthesis of WO3-containing catalysts based on zeolites of the ZSM-5 type. Zeolites with different Si/Al ratios and different numbers of acid sites were used: ZSM-5-CVM, ZSM-5-CVN and ZSM-5-Acros. The synthesized catalysts were characterized and tested in the reaction of the conversion of fructose and glucose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and levulinic acid. It was shown that the introduction of tungsten (VI) oxide into the composition of ZSM-5 leads to a noticeable in...
