Hydrotalcite-supported gold-nanoparticle-catalyzed highly efficient base-free aqueous oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural into 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid under atmospheric oxygen pressure

TL;DR: In this article, a green synthesis of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid, one of the most important chemical building blocks from biomass, viaoxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural has been demonstrated using hydrotalcite-supported gold nanoparticle catalyst in water at 368 K under atmospheric oxygen pressure without addition of homogeneous base.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amorphous Nb2O5 as a Selective and Reusable Catalyst for Furfural Production from Xylose in Biphasic Water and Toluene

TL;DR: In this article, aqueous-phase dehydration of xylose into furfural was studied in the presence of amorphous Nb2O5 with water-compatible Bronsted and Lewis acid sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protection Strategies Enable Selective Conversion of Biomass

TL;DR: This article summarized the existing protection strategies during biomass chemocatalytic conversion processes and introduced a concept of using analogous methods to manipulate biomass catalytic conversion pathways during upgrading of carbohyrates to fuels and chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Facile Formation of Lactic Acid from a Triose Sugar in Water over Niobium Oxide with a Deformed Orthorhombic Phase

TL;DR: In this article, the Nb2O5 catalyst was used as a solid acid catalyst for the formation of lactic acid from 1,3-dihydroxyacetone and pyruvaldehyde in water at 373 K, and was determined to be a highly active and selective catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metal-Free and Selective Oxidation of Furfural to Furoic Acid with an N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyst

TL;DR: In this article, an N-heterocyclic carbene was used as a homogeneous catalyst for the formation of a Breslow intermediate between a carbene and a furfural molecule and the subsequent activation of molecular O2.
