Branching Bio: new routes to isoalkanes and branched polyols

Aron's Branching first!' paper accepted
In a collaboration with the Sels group, we have worked on a new strategy to introduce branching points in the carbon skeletion of bio-derived chemicals, at the level of the sugar feedstock stream, rather than afterward.
The branched sugar can lead to isoalkanes and branched polyols with heterogeneous catalytic processes.
