Furfural is used to make other furan derivatives, such as furoic acid, via oxidation, [30] and furan itself via palladium catalyzed vapor phase decarbonylation. [ 4 ] There is a good market for value added chemicals that can be obtained from furfural.
Methoxymethylfurfural (MMF or 5-methoxymethylfuran-2-carbaldehyde) is an organic compound derived from dehydration of sugars and subsequent etherification with methanol. [1] This colorless liquid is soluble in a wide range of solvents including lower alcohols.
Furan is a heterocyclic organic compound, consisting of a five-membered aromatic ring with four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Chemical compounds containing such rings are also referred to as furans. Furan is a colorless, flammable, highly volatile liquid with a boiling point close to room temperature.
Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), also known as 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural, is an organic compound formed by the dehydration of reducing sugars. [4] [5] It is a white low-melting solid (although commercial samples are often yellow) which is highly soluble in both water and organic solvents.
5-Chloromethylfurfural is an organic compound with the formula C 4 H 2 O(CH 2 Cl)CHO. It consists of a furan substituted at the 2- and 5-positions with formyl (CHO) and chloromethyl (CH 2 Cl) groups. CMF, as it is called, is obtained by dehydration of fructose and other cellulose derivatives using hydrochloric acid. It is a colourless liquid. [1]
About 27 dead horses were also found at the scene. Other animals had to be euthanized Photos shared by the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office show the horses, one of which is extremely emaciated.
Furan fatty acids in animals are based on the uptake and accumulation of furan fatty acids from plant constituents. [6] In human blood, the total furan fatty acid content is about 50 ng/ml. Per day, a person separates between 0.5 and 3 mg of urofuran acids - the metabolic product of the furans acids.
Furfuryl alcohol is an organic compound containing a furan substituted with a hydroxymethyl group. It is a colorless liquid, but aged samples appear amber. It is a colorless liquid, but aged samples appear amber.
