    Study Notes

    2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (2,5-FDCA)

    • 2,5-FDCA is an important platform chemical for the production of bio-based polymers
    • It can be produced from fructose via 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF)
    • 2,5-FDCA can be produced from the oxidation of 5-HMF using gold catalysts
    • Gold nanoparticles supported on ceria (Au-CeO2) are effective catalysts for the oxidation of 5-HMF to 2,5-FDCA
    • The reaction is carried out in water under mild conditions (65-130 °C, 1.0 MPa air)
    • The rate-limiting step is the hydroxyl oxidation of 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid into 2,5-FDCA
    • 2,5-FDCA has been shown to have a 99 mol% yield using Au-CeO2 catalyst

    2,5-Bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (2,5-BHF)

    • 2,5-BHF is an important intermediate for the production of various chemicals and polymers
    • It can be produced from the hydrogenation of 2,5-FDCA
