The Influence of the Gold Particle Size on the Catalytic Oxidation of 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfural

For the production of chemicals from biomass, new selective processes are required. The selective oxidation of 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF), a promising platform molecule in fine chemistry, to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is considered a promising approach and requires the oxidation of two f...
