Abstract

The one-pot conversion of fructose to γ-valerolactone (GVL) in GVL as solvent was confirmed by monitoring the dehydration of ¹³C₆-d-fructose to ¹³C₆-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2- furaldehyde ( ¹³C₆-HMF), the hydration of ¹³C₆-HMF to ¹³C₅-levulinic and ¹³C-formic acids, followed by their conversion to ¹³C₅-GVL.
