The conversion of lignocellulose into a value-added chemical with high selectivity is of great significance but is a big challenge due to the structural diversities of biomass components. Here, we have reported an efficient approach for the one-step conversion of raw lignocellulose into diethyl maleate by the polyoxometalate ionic liquid [BSmim]CuPW12O40 in ethanol under mild conditions. The results reveal that all of the fractions in biomass, i.e., cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose, were simultaneously converted into diethyl maleate (DEM), achieving a 329.6 mg g-1 yield and 70.3% selectivity from corn stalk. Importantly, the performance of the ionic liquid catalyst [BSmim]CuPW12O40 was nearly twice that of CuHPW12O40, which can be attributed to the lower incorporation of the Cu2+ site in [BSmim]CuPW12O40. Hence, this process opens a promising route for producing bio-based bulk chemicals from raw lignocellulose without any pretreatment.

A cheap, easy-to-build, and effective resistively heated reactor for continuous flow synthesis at high temperature and pressure is herein presented. The reactor is rapidly heated directly using an electric current and is capable of rapidly delivering temperatures and pressures up to 400 °C and 200 bar, respectively. High-temperature and high-pressure applications of this reactor were safely performed and demonstrated by selected transformations such as esterifications, transesterifications, and direct carboxylic acid to nitrile reactions using supercritical ethanol, methanol, and acetonitrile. Reaction temperatures were between 300 and 400 °C with excellent conversions and good to excellent isolated product yields. Examples of Diels-Alder reactions were also carried out at temperatures up to 300 °C in high yield. No additives or catalysts were used in the reactions.
Cycloaddition of C-3 substituted furans. Stereoselectivity induced by coordination effects

Several C-3 substituted furans with chelating groups have been reacted with 2,3-dibromo-3-pentanone in the presence of a reducing metal, resulting in the formation of [4+3]-cycloadducts with complete cis-trans and endo-exo diastereoselectivity and in excellent yield. A certain variability of the conversion and reaction yield could be observed, when changing the reaction conditions, but in all cases the stereoselectivity was complete, compared to that of C-3 substituted furans with non-chelating groups. Also, a general method of assignment of stereochemistry of cycloadducts has been established by NMR, considering diagnostic patterns of signals with different multiplicity and chemical shifts depending on the stereochemistry of diastereomeric cycloadducts.
