Recent decades have been marked by enormous progress in the field of synthesis and chemistry of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF), an important platform chemical widely recognized as the "sleeping giant" of sustainable chemistry. This multifunctional furanic compound is viewed as a strong link for the transition from the current fossil-based industry to a sustainable one. However, the low chemical stability of HMF significantly undermines its synthetic potential. A possible solution to this problem is synthetic diversification of HMF by modifying it into more stable multifunctional building blocks for further synthetic purposes.
近几十年来,5-(羟甲基)糠醛(HMF)的合成和化学领域取得了巨大的进展,这种重要的平台化学品被广泛认为是可持续化学的“沉睡巨人”。这种多功能呋喃化合物被视为从当前基于化石的工业向可持续工业过渡的重要纽带。然而,HMF 的化学稳定性低极大地限制了其合成潜力。解决这个问题的一个可能方法是通过将 HMF 修饰成更稳定的多功能构建块来进行合成多样化,以进一步进行合成。
