High chiral purity of lactic acid is a crucial indicator for the synthesis of chiral lactide as the primary intermediate chemical for ring‐open polymerization of high molecular weight polylactic acid (PLA). Lignocellulose biomass is the most promising carbohydrate feedstock for commercial production of PLA, but the presence of trace d‐lactic acid in the biorefinery chain adversely affects the synthesis...
