Ultra-selective cycloaddition of dimethylfuran for renewable p-xylene with H-BEAElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available. See DOI: 10.1039/c3gc40740c

p -Xylene, the precursor for PET bottles, was synthesized at 90% yield by [4 + 2] cycloaddition of biomass-derived ethylene and dimethylfuran followed by subsequent dehydration with Beta zeolite. p -Xylene was synthesized at 90% yield by cycloaddition of biomass-derived ethylene and dimethylfuran fo...
