Abstract: Nonpolar, nonperoxide forming, sustainable and potentially bio-based solvents, namely 2,2,5,5-tetramethyloxolane (TMO) and 2,5-diethyl-2,5-dimethyloxolane (DEDMO), were utilized as an alternative to toxic petroleum-based hydrocarbon solvents for extraction of hentriacontane-14,16-dione from waste wheat straw waxes.
