  1. #integration region excludes the peak area for acetate/acetic acid.
  2. *integration region excludes the peak area for formate/formic acid.
  3. Values given in bold are for the summed total peak areas in the aliphatic, oxygenated, and aromatic regions.
  4. The 1H NMR spectra are shown in Figure 3.
