“…HMF can be readily oxidized to different potentially important products, such as maleic anhydride [4], 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) [5,6], 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDA) (Scheme 1) or its dimethyl ester [7][8][9][10][11]. FDA has been established by the US Department of Energy (DOE) biomass program as one of the 12 chemicals that in the future can be used as chemical building block from biomass in biorefineries [12,13].…”

Solid catalyst systems comprised of ruthenium hydroxide supported on magnesium-based carrier materials (spinel, magnesium oxide and hydrotalcite) were investigated for the selective, aqueous aerobic oxidation of the biomass-derived chemical 5-hydroxymethylfurfural into 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDA), a possible plastics precursor. The novel catalyst systems were characterized by nitrogen physisorption, XRPD, TEM and EDS analysis, and applied for the oxidation with no added base at moderate to high pressures of dioxygen and elevated temperatures. The effects of support, temperature and oxidant pressure were studied and optimized to allow a quantitative yield of FDA to be obtained.

“…Grabowski et al 134,135 oxidised HMF at a nickel oxide-hydroxide electrode in alkaline aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. The reaction was carried out in a divided cell, and resulted in formation of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid 40 in 71% yield, as the exclusive product.…”

“…[34] Nickelo xide/hydroxide was used as the anode and 71 %y ield of FDCA was obtained in strongly alkaline electrolyte (1 m NaOH) at ac urrent density of 16 mA cm À2 .H owever,t his seminal work was not followed up by others quickly and the electrochemical oxidation of HMF has been scarcely exploreda fter this initial work, probablyb ecause the importance of FDCA was not wellrecognized by the academic community. In 1991, the electrochemical oxidation of HMF into FDCA was first reported in at wo-compartment electrochemical cell.…”

The continuous advance in exploring renewable energy resources such as solar and wind will certainly alleviate our reliance on limited fossil reserves. However, the sustainable development of mankind demands not only energy but also carbon-based chemical goods. Unfortunately, exploitation of renewable energy resources like solar and wind will not lead to any carbon-based chemicals. The only sustainable and green carbon source is biomass, the scale of annual production of which has an immense potential to complement that of fossil-derived carbons. To utilize biomass in economically effective ways, many catalytic processes have been investigated. Among various strategies of biomass refinery, electrocatalytic upgrading stands out as an attractive option because of its benign operation conditions, high energy efficiency, and convenient control on production rate and selectivity using electrochemical parameters. This Minireview showcases several electrocatalytic systems for both reductive and oxidative upgrading of representative biomass-derived intermediate compounds, including 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural, levulinic acid, glycerol, and sorbitol to different value-added products. The catalytic routes and mechanisms of each biomass-derived platform compound are discussed and compared. In order to be feasible for large-scale applications, low-cost composition and preparation of electrocatalysts are mandatory and will be emphasized. Finally, our personal perspective on the current challenges and future directions of electrocatalytic biomass upgrading is presented.
