AP-128 – Solubility of Bio-Sourced Feedstocks in ‘Green’ Solvents

A group of 14 different bio-sourced, renewable feedstocks have been examined for their solubility/miscibility in a variety of ‘green’ solvents, and trends in solubility have been assessed so that the data may be extrapolated to help predict solubilities of other related compounds. This information could provide valuable insight into the workability of a host of new, green reactions using these compounds, opening the door to a realm of more environmentally friendly syntheses.
