Climent, Sara Iborra, Avelino Corma Precursors of ammonium salt biosurfactants have been obtained from HMF by coupling cobalt-catalyzed reductive amination with selective bio-esterification using an immobilized lipase CALB. The process has been optimized in batch and flow reactors. To cite this article before page numbers are assigned, use the DOI form of citation above.
