O -Demethylation of biobased anisole-like derivatives induced by acoustic energy: role of the cavitation bubble–water interface
Key Points
The o-demethylation reaction demonstrated a significant increase at the cavitation bubble-water interface due to acoustic energy.
Key evidence showed that the interaction results in enhanced reaction conditions, promoting the transformation of syringol.
Analysis focused on the cavitation effects during the o-demethylation of syringol, revealing important mechanistic details.
Findings suggest that understanding bubble dynamics could lead to improved applications in biobased chemistry.
Abstract
Using the O -demethylation of syringol as a model reaction, we investigated and clarified the reaction mechanism occurring at the cavitation bubble–water interface.
