Step of producing 2,5-bishydroxymethylfuran, 2,5-bis-hydroxymethyltetrahydrofuran, 1,6-hexanediol and 1,2,6-hexanetriol from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural

摘要

Provided on an industrial scale conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to general purpose chemicals such as 1,2,6-hexanetriol and 1,6-hexanediol by chemical catalytic conversion using hydrogen and heterogeneous reduction catalysts The The reactions are suitable for use in a continuous flow reactor. In addition to methods for carrying out the conversion, products and catalyst compositions are provided. [Selection] Figure 1
