Ketose is a valuable industrial ingredient, but there is no effective synthetic method for ketoses. A hydroxyapatite (HAp)-loaded flow system was developed for atom-economical ketose preparation. This continuous flow system enables the efficient transformation from aldoses to valuable ketoses. In particular, ketotriose dihydroxyacetone was obtained quantitatively from glyceraldehyde in water through a HAp-packed column reactor without any decrease in yield during long-term operation.

在连续流模块中通过羟基磷灰石催化剂高效生产酮糖

酮糖是一种有价值的工业成分，但是没有有效的合成酮糖的方法。开发了负载羟基磷灰石（HAp）的流动系统，用于原子经济的酮糖制备。这种连续流动的系统使从醛糖到有价值的酮糖的高效转化成为可能。特别地，在长时间运行期间，通过HAp-填充柱反应器从水中的甘油醛定量获得了酮三糖二羟基丙酮，而收率没有任何降低。
