Abstract
An efficient process for the conversion of dimethyl oxalateinto ethylene glycol with high selectivity and high yield over Cu2O was investigated. In situ formed Cu as a true catalytically active species showed a good catalytic performance for DMO conversion to produce EG in 95% yield.
Graphical abstractEthylene glycol was obtained from dimethyl oxalate in high yield over Cu2O in aqueous media.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
