In this work, glucose was transformed into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) in the presence of AlCl3·6H2O and a Brønsted solid acid catalyst (PTSA–POM). GVL (γ-valerolactone)–water and ethanol–water solvent systems were evaluated in the dehydration reaction of glucose into HMF and EMF, respectively. Water content and dosage of AlCl3·6H2O were examined in the conversion of glucose into HMF, and some valuable chlorides (FeCl3·6H2O, NiCl2·6H2O, CrCl3·6H2O etc.) were also used in contrast with AlCl3·6H2O. Some different organic solvents were added to the ethanol–water system to explore whether it would be beneficial to the generation of EMF. A high yield of HMF (60.7%) was obtained at 140 °C within 60 min in GVL–water (10 : 1) solvent system, and total yield 42.1% of EMF and HMF (30.6% EMF, 11.5% HMF) was achieved at 150 °C after 30 min in an ethanol–water (9 : 1) solvent system.

5-Methylfurfural (MF) is a critical commodity chemical used as food additive and synthetic intermediate. Opening a sustainable route towards highly selective synthesis of MF from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is of great significance, but has demonstrated extremely challenging. Herein, we report an efficient process for the selective production of MF from HMF over an anatase-supported gold catalyst (Au/a-TiO 2 ). During the hydrogenolysis of HMF, the desired C O bond is maintained and MF can be obtained in a high yield of 83.1 %, exhibiting excellent stability both in batch and flow operation. A combination of experimental and theoretical analyses attribute the superior performance of Au/a-TiO 2 to the synergistic effect of limited H access, low adsorption of reactants, and avoiding condensation, driven by the high concentration of oxygen vacancies in the support. This study highlights a novel approach of tailoring the coverage of active species for the selective transformation of renewable compounds into high-value-added chemicals.

A green approach for the conversion of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF) to 5-methylfurfural (MF) by using size-controlled palladium catalysts has been developed. Palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) with various sizes supported on activated carbon were prepared with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as the capping agent. The reaction results showed that all the PVP-assisted Pd catalysts achieved high selectivity whilst the hydrogenation ability of Pd NPs could be rationally tuned by varying the mole ratio of Pd/PVP. 2.5% Pd–PVP/C (1 : 2) presented a satisfactory activity with 80% MF yield and 90% selectivity. The reaction kinetics study showed that the transformation of HMF into MF over bifunctional PVP-assisted Pd NPs underwent an acid-catalyzed esterification followed by a Pd-catalyzed hydrogenolysis procedure. The role of formic acid in the transformation is not only as a hydrogen-donating agent but also as a reactant to form the key intermediate. This work provides a novel and environmentally-friendly method for the selective hydrogenation of bio-based HMF to MF.

In this study, we have developed a new method for the synthesis of EMF from HMF and fructose using mesoporous MCM-41 supported 12-tungstophosphoric acid (MCM-41-HPW) as the catalyst. The structure of 40 wt.% MCM-41-HPW was characterized by various techniques and its surface acidity was determined by potentiometric titration. A high EMF yield of 83.4% was obtained from HMF by the etherification reaction. Synthesis of EMF from fructose was also realized through one-pot reaction with a moderate yield of 42.9%. More importantly, the catalyst could be reused for several times without the loss of its catalytic activity.

Deoxygenative upgrading of 5-hydromethylfurfural (HMF) into valuable chemicals has attracted intensive research interest in recent years, with product selectivity control remaining an important topic. Herein, TiO 2 supported gold catalysts coated with a thin N-doped porous carbon (NPC) layer were developed via a polydopamine-coating-carbonization strategy and utilized for pathway-specific conversion of HMF into 5-methylfurfural (5-MF) with the use of renewable formic acid (FA) as the deoxygenation reagent. The as-fabricated Au/TiO 2 @NPC exhibited excellent catalytic performance with a high yield of 5-MF (>95%). The catalytic behavior of Au@NPC-based catalysts was shown to be correlated with the suitable combination of highly dispersed Au nanoparticles and favorable interfacial interactions in the Au@NPC core-shell hetero-nanoarchitectures, thereby facilitating the preferential esterification of HMF with FA and suppressing unproductive FA dehydrogenation , which promoted the selective formylation/decarboxylation of hydroxy-methyl group in HMF in a pathway-specific manner. The present NPC/metal interfacial engineering strategy may provide a potential guide for the rational design of advanced catalysts for a wide variety of heterogeneous catalysis processes in terms of the conversion of biomass source.

An efficient process for the catalytic transfer hydrogenation of biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) to 2,5-bishydroxymethyl furan (BHMF) is presented using ethanol as a hydrogen donor and solvent over low-cost ZrO(OH)2. A HMF conversion of 94.1% and a DHMF selectivity of 88.9% were achieved at 423 K in 2.5 h. The fresh, spent, and regenerated catalysts were characterized comprehensively, and the OH group of ZrO(OH)2 as sites for ligand exchange with ethanol was considered to be important for the activity.

The catalytic transformation of biomass derived compounds into valuable liquid fuels has received considerable attention in the past few years. In this work, sulfonic acid grafted halloysite nanotubes (HNTs-SO3H) were facilely synthesized via functionalizing the halloysite nanotubes with 1,3-propanesultone, and the physico-chemical properties of the synthesized catalysts were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), N2 adsorption isotherm techniques, etc. The characterization results revealed that the organic–inorganic mesoporous materials preserved the tubular structure of the halloysite nanotubes and were equipped with active sulfonic acid sites. The as-synthesized catalyst was employed for the catalytic conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to biofuel 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) under solvent-free conditions. Response surface methodology (RSM) with Box–Behnken design (BBD) was used to investigate the influence of the reaction conditions such as reaction temperature, reaction time and catalyst dosage on EMF yield. An excellent EMF yield of 86.4% and HMF conversion of 99.3% could be achieved at 126 °C for 35 minutes over the HNTs-SO3H catalyst. Furthermore, the kinetics of the conversion of HMF to EMF was also studied, and the kinetic modeling results indicated that this reaction follows pseudo-first-order kinetics, and the activation energy obtained was 60.12 kJ mol −1.

The conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and carbohydrates to 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) is an attractive biomass transformation owing to the potential application of the resulting product as a fuel additive. In this work, the imidazolium hydrogen sulfate ionic liquid was grafted on the surface of silica-coated iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles using cyanuric chloride as linker, and such a magnetically separable solid acid catalyst is referred to as HSO 4 /SMNPs. The catalytic activity of HSO 4 /SMNPs was evaluated for the etherification of biomass-derived HMF with ethanol and sequential dehydration/etherification of sugars to produce EMF. The impact of various reaction parameters was studied to achieve the optimal yield of EMF. HSO 4 /SMNPs provided EMF yields of 94.3%, 68.2%, and 53.3% from HMF, fructose, and inulin in ethanol, respectively, without the need for high boiling point co-solvents. Extraordinarily, the catalyst can be readily separated from the reaction mixture by applying a permanent magnet and reused for five times without substantial activity decrease.

Catalytic conversion of carbohydrates into valuable chemical and liquid fuels has received considerable attention in recent years. In this study, sulfonic acid-functionalized ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC-SO 3 H) was prepared and well characterized by physical techniques such as TEM, nitrogen physisorption measurements and XRD. The as-prepared OMC-SO 3 H was then used for the acid-catalyzed conversion of fructose based carbohydrates into 5-hydroxylmethylfurfan (HMF) or 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF). Due to the high surface area and high acidity, the OMC-SO 3 H catalyst showed a comparable catalytic performance as the homogeneous catalysts. The dehydration of fructose over the OMC-SO 3 H catalyst produced a high HMF yield of 89.4% in DMSO at 120 °C within 30 min. The one-pot transformation of fructose carbohydrates were also smoothly performed, affording EMF yields of 55.7%, 53.6% and 26.8% from fructose, iuline and sucrose after 24 h at 140 °C, respectively. Furthermore, the OMC-SO 3 H catalyst can be reused and no apparent loss of the activity was observed.

Catalytic conversion of various carbohydrates into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) was efficiently conducted by sulfonated carbon material (polyurethane based catalyst, abbreviated as PU-Cat). In the preparation process of catalyst, the tetrahydrofuran was reclaimed. PU-Cat exhibited excellent performance in the synthesis of HMF and EMF from fructose-based carbohydrates. Firstly, the dehydration of fructose into HMF was smoothly carried out in the low-boiling solvent (1, 4-dioxane), which was catalyzed by PU-Cat at 140 °C. The highest yield of HMF was up to 70.1% with full conversion of fructose in 1, 4-dioxane for 2 h. Then, the one-pot conversion of fructose into EMF was also successfully performed in the ethanol/1, 4-dioxane (V/V=70:30) at 140 °C for 2 h, and 66.0% yield of EMF was obtained. Finally, PU-Cat can be recycled five times without significant reduction in catalytic activity.

The absorption of a 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF)–cysteine adduct, 1-dicysteinethioacetal–5-hydroxymethylfurfural (DCH), and its effect on antioxidant activity and gut microbiota were investigated. Results indicated that DCH is more easily absorbed in rats than HMF. Serum DCH concentrations were 15–38-fold of HMF concentrations from 30 to 180 min after intragastrical administration at the level of 100 mg/kg of body weight, and 2.7–4.5% of absorbed DCH was converted to HMF. The malondialdehyde content in the plasma, heart, liver, and kidneys significantly increased after drug (100 mg/kg of bw) administration for 1 week, suggesting that HMF and DCH were oxidative-stress-inducing agents, instead of antioxidant agents, in rats. HMF and DCH also modulated gut microbiota. HMF promoted the growth of Lactobacillus, Tyzzerella, Enterobacter, and Streptococcus. DCH increased the ratio of Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes and promoted the growth of Akkermansia, Shigella, and Escherichia while inhibiting the growth of Lactobacillus.

The use of environment friendly biomass-based catalysts in bio refinery is highly desirable. In this paper, the preparation of sulfonated carbon materials from biopolymers (typically chitin and cellulose) via facile one-step carbonization and sulfonation using p-toluenesulfonic acid as sulfonating agent was demonstrated. Unlike nitrogen-free cellulose, the basic nitrogen-containing sites generated from chitin decreased the acidity strength of the catalysts, which was confirmed by the results of 31 P Nuclear Magnetic Resonance ( 31 P NMR). The suppressed acidity strength boosted the selectivity of 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) by inhibiting the formation of by-products, such as ethyl levulinate (EL) and humins. An 84.3 % yield of EMF from HMF was obtained over the as-prepared chitin-derived solid acid. The catalyst could be reused at least three times without obvious decrease of catalytic activity. Moreover, 74.6 %, 31.9 % and 60.7 % yields of EMF were obtained from fructose, sucrose and inulin in ethanol-containing solvents, respectively. This work offers an example for the synthesis of biofuels using biomass-derived catalysts.
