Ethyl levulinate, as a potential green biomass-based platform compound, contains a carbonyl group and an ester group, has good reactivity, and can perform various chemical reactions such as hydrolysis, reduction, condensation, and nucleophilic addition. Taking advantage of the above reaction advantages, ethyl acetylpropionate is not only used in solvents, fragrances, oil additives and plasticizers, but also as an important pharmaceutical and chemical raw material.
