TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: GreenFuran Direct Allylation

This opportunity offers a license to the “GreenFuran Direct Allylation” technology developed by Los Alamos National Laboratory. The process enables manufacturers to convert biomass‑derived alcohols and furans into valuable allylated furans via a low‑waste, mild‑temperature reaction that uses inexpensive, recyclable catalysts and generates only water as a by‑product. The technology is ready for commercial scaling and targets markets such as food & beverage additives, personal care fragrances, industrial surfactants, and agricultural pest‑control agents. Interested parties can negotiate exclusive or non‑exclusive licensing agreements to integrate the method into existing production lines. • Low‑temperature, catalyst‑free separation simplifies plant operations and reduces safety costs. • Uses renewable, biomass‑derived feedstocks, supporting green‑chemistry initiatives. • Broad substrate scope—including substituted and polysubstituted furans—opens new product opportunities across multiple industries.
