General tips For obtaining a higher solubility , please warm the tube at 37 ℃ and shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while.Stock solution can be stored below -20℃ for several months.
We recommend that you prepare and use the solution on the same day. However, if the test schedule requires, the stock solutions can be prepared in advance, and the stock solution must be sealed and stored below -20℃. In general, the stock solution can be kept for several months.
Before use, we recommend that you leave the vial at room temperature for at least an hour before opening it.
About Packaging 1. The packaging of the product may be reversed during transportation, cause the high purity compounds to adhere to the neck or cap of the vial.Take the vail out of its packaging and shake gently until the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial.
2. For liquid products, please centrifuge at 500xg to gather the liquid to the bottom of the vial.
3. Try to avoid loss or contamination during the experiment.
Shipping Condition Packaging according to customer requirements(5mg, 10mg, 20mg and more). Ship via FedEx, DHL, UPS, EMS or other couriers with RT, or blue ice upon request.

In Situ Catalytic Hydrogenation of Biomass-Derived Methyl Levulinate to γ-Valerolactone in Methanol.[Pubmed: 25873556]

ChemSusChem. 2015 May 11;8(9):1601-7.


METHODS AND RESULTS:
In this work, the hydrocyclization of Methyl levulinate (ML) to γ-valerolactone (GVL) was performed in MeOH over an in situ prepared nanocopper catalyst without external H2 . This nanocopper catalyst served as a dual-functional catalyst for both hydrogen production by MeOH reforming and hydrogenation of ML. Nearly quantitative ML conversion with a GVL selectivity of 87.6 % was achieved at 240 °C in 1 h in MeOH under a nitrogen atmosphere. ML in the methanolysis products of cellulose also could be hydrogenated effectively to GVL over this nanocopper catalyst even in the presence of humins to give an ML conversion of 94.1 % and a GVL selectivity of 73.2 % at 240 °C in 4 h.
CONCLUSIONS:
The absorption behavior of humins on the surface of the nanocopper catalyst was observed, which resulted in a pronounced increase in the acidic sites of the nanocopper catalyst that facilitate ring-opening and the hydrocarboxylation/alkoxycarbonylation of GVL to byproducts.

One-pot preparation of methyl levulinate from catalytic alcoholysis of cellulose in near-critical methanol.[Pubmed: 22841826]

Carbohydr Res. 2012 Sep 1;358:37-9.

One-pot preparation of Methyl levulinate (MLA) from cellulose in near-critical methanol was studied.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Acids containing SO(3)H group were proven to be effective catalysts for the production of MLA from cellulose's catalytic alcoholysis. The effects of different reaction conditions, such as an initial cellulose concentration of 10-30 g/L, a temperature range from 170 to 190°C, and a sulfuric acid concentration of 0.01-0.03 mol/L, on the production of MLA were investigated.
CONCLUSIONS:
The results showed the reaction temperature and acid concentration significantly affected the process of cellulose alcoholysis and the yield of MLA. A high yield of up to 55% MLA was achieved at 190°C for 5h, using 0.02 mol/L H(2)SO(4) as a catalyst.
