Abstract

In this work the synthesis of a tricyclic isosorbide derivative in moderate yield directly from the dicarboxymethyl isosorbide in a continuous-flow apparatus is reported. The tricyclic structure has been isolated as pure and fully characterized. This product confirms the potentiality of dimethylcarbonate (DMC) as dehydrating agent also for complicated structure and opens up further investigation and application of DMC chemistry on renewable starting materials.
