摘要
Synthesizing ring structure aviation fuels from biomass-derived platform molecules is challenging,especially for bridged ring structure aviation fuels which are typically achieved from fossil-derived chemicals.Herein,we report the synthesis of a series of ring structure biofuels in two steps by a combination of a solvent-free Michael-cyclization reaction and a hydrodeoxygenation(HDO)reaction from lignocellulosederived 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione.These biofuels are obtained with high overall yields up to 90%,which exhibit high densities of 0.81 g cm^(-3)-0.88 g cm^(-3)and high volumetric neat heat of combustion(VNHOC)values of 36.0 MJ L^(-1)-38.6 MJ L^(-1).More importantly,bridged-ring structure hydrocarbons can also be achieved in two steps by a combination of a Robinson annulation reaction and an HDO reaction to afford the final products at high overall yields up to 90%.The bridged-ring structure products have comparable high densities and high VNHOC values to the best artificial fuel JP-10(0.94 g cm^(-3)and 39.6 MJ L^(-1)).The results demonstrate a promising way for the synthesis of high-density aviation fuels with different fuel properties at high yields.
