Investigation on formose reaction under partial conversion of HCHO

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on the formose reaction, this dissertation explores its implications for synthesizing edible sugars and its relevance to the origin of life and space regenerative systems. It highlights the complexity of sugar production due to chain distribution and the effects of full versus partial conversion of HCHO. The research proposes strategies for optimizing conditions to enhance selectivity for C3 or C6 carbohydrates and emphasizes the need for improved analytical methods in HPLC. Overall, it aims to deepen understanding of the reaction and its potential applications.
