Scientific Reports was a journal published by NPG (Nature publishing group). The IF was 5.578 in 2015.
In this work, a mixture of bi(cyclopentane) and tri(cyclopentane) with high densities (0.86 g/mL and 0.91 g/mL) was first prepared at high overall carbon yield (95.6%) by the Guerbet reaction of cyclopentanol, followed by the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) over the SiO2 loaded Ni catalysts under solvent free conditions. This paper developed a new route for the synthesis of jet fuel range cyclic hydrocarbons with lignocellulosic platform chemicals.
