Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods for selective synthesis of specific phenolic products by means biomass or biomass products liquefaction, manipulation of the said selectivity in favor of one specific phenolic compound or a mixture of specific phenolic compounds, and the synthesis of the phenolic compounds from a liquid or biomass organic fraction produced in presence of a homogeneous catalyst in supercritical state or a mixture of said homogeneous and one or several heterogeneous catalysts mixed with water in sub-critical, near-critical, or supercritical condition.
