Abstract:The selective oxidation of 5‐(Hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF) to 2,5‐Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is highly attractive for the production of renewable monomers as substitute for fossil‐based monomers. To achieve a sustainable synthesis, we report on advances for a base‐free approach, reducing waste from the process, using air as oxidant and heterogeneous catalysts. Various Carbon‐based supports, which can be bio‐sourced and cost‐efficient, for Pt particles were investigated as they allow for an easy reuse and at… Show more
“…Nevertheless, AC-ROX was shown in the literature to play an active role in the base-free HMF-oxidation, possessing good adsorption properties for HMF, which potentially increases the catalytic activity in continuous flow oxidation under alkaline conditions. 51…”

“…This proves the superior intrinsic catalytic activity of AuPd/AC-ROX over a broad LHSV range. The higher catalytic activity might originate from the superior adsorption properties of AC-ROX, 51 particularly for HMF, which was not adsorbed on the surfaces of TiO 2 and ZrO 2 (Table S2†). AC-ROX thus proved to be the most suitable support material for further testing, offering the potential to enhance the productivity of FDCA further.…”
The oxidation of 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF) to 2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) holds significant promise for replacing fossil-based monomers. Continuous flow operation enhances the process in terms of green chemistry by improving heat...

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
