The products were characterized by GPC and 1H NMR. The results indicated that the molecular weight of the prepared polymers decreased with increasing L-malic acid content in the monomer feed ratio, and that change in the L-malic acid content from 0 to 20 mol % did not remarkably influenced on the molecular weight distribution Mw /Ma of the prepared samples. The 1H NMR spectra of the obtained copolymer samples showed that hydroxyl groups of L-malic acid did not take part in the polymerization reaction.展开更多

The reaction kinetics was studied taking into account the process of L-malic acid association leading to the formation of inactive cyclic oligomeric species. High TOFs（ca. 50 h-1）, selectivities（ca. 99%）and stability of Pt-Re Ox/C catalysts in aqueous-phase hydrogenation of L-malic acid, which are close to those of the homogeneous pincer type complexes, were revealed at mild conditions（T = 90–130 ℃）. Taking into account that（i） hydrogenation reaction occurred 2–3 orders of magnitude faster than its racemization and（ii） association of L-malic acid dominates at low temperatures and in a concentrated solution,special reaction conditions that allow obtaining chemically and optically（ee 〉 99%） pure（S）-3-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone and（S）-1,2,4-butanetriol were found. Basing on HAADF-STEM, EDX, XPS, and kinetic studies, the structure of active species and basic reaction pathways are proposed.展开更多
