Towards molecular sieve inorganic catalysts that are akin to enzymes: studies of a selective cyclo-dimerization over ferrierite at ambient temperature
The solid-acid (Brønsted)-catalyzed cyclo-dimerization of 3-hydroxy-3-methylbutan-2-one (HMB) over a synthetic ferrierite molecular sieve is reported. HMB is a stable liquid at ambient temperatures but in acid...
