Direct Transformation of Fructose and Glucose to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural in Ionic Liquids under Mild Conditions

Direct Transformation of Fructose and Glucose to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural in Ionic Liquids under Mild Conditions

Direct dehydration of fructose and glucose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) was studied using ionic liquids (ILs) without adding any catalysts. Various ILs were screened, and the highest 5-HMF yield of 95.6% was obtained using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tosylate ([BMIM][TSO]) at 353 K for 30 min....
