  2. Furfural - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furfural

    In petrochemical industry, furfural is utilized as a specialized chemical solvent for diene extraction. [27] Furfural is an important renewable, non-petroleum based, chemical feedstock which can be converted into solvents, polymers, fuels and other useful chemicals by a range of catalytic reduction. [28]

  3. 5-Amino-1-pentanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-Amino-1-pentanol

    5-Amino-1-pentanol is an amino alcohol with a primary amino group and a primary hydroxy group at the ends of a linear C 5-alkanes.As a derivative of the platform chemical furfural (that is easily accessible from pentoses), 5-amino-1-pentanol may become increasingly important in the future as a building block for biodegradable polyesteramides and as a starting material for valerolactam — the ...

  4. 2,5-Bis(hydroxymethyl)furan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,5-Bis(hydroxymethyl)furan

    2,5-BHMF may be obtained from the reduction of the formyl group of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). HMF is the product of acid-catalyzed dehydration of fructose.Fructose is both an isomer of and a derivative of glucose, which can be derived from the hydrolysis of cellulose.

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are connected to one another.

  6. Furfuryl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furfuryl_alcohol

    Furfuryl alcohol is manufactured industrially by hydrogenation of furfural, which is itself typically produced from waste bio-mass such as corncobs or sugar cane bagasse. As such furfuryl alcohol may be considered a green chemical. [5] One-pot systems have been investigated to produce furfuryl alcohol directly from xylose using solid acid ...

  7. 2,5-Dimethylfuran - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,5-Dimethylfuran

    2,5-Dimethylfuran is a heterocyclic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 C 4 H 2 O. Although often abbreviated DMF, it should not be confused with dimethylformamide. A derivative of furan, this simple compound is a potential biofuel, being derivable from cellulose.

  8. 2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,5-Furandicarboxylic_acid

    2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is an organic chemical compound consisting of two carboxylic acid groups attached to a central furan ring. It was first reported as dehydromucic acid by Rudolph Fittig and Heinzelmann in 1876, who produced it via the action of concentrated hydrobromic acid upon mucic acid. [2]
