Abstract

In the current scenario of depleting fossil-derived resources, biomass is considered a potential feedstock for sustainable energy supply and production of alternative chemicals. Among them, 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) is one of the most important chemicals having widespread potential applications. DFF is produced from bioderived resources through the catalytic oxidation process. In this chapter, catalytic routes for the production of DFF starting from biomass-derived furan derivatives and sugars (e.g., mono/polysaccharides) are discussed in detail. Comprehensive emphasis is given to the catalysts (e.g., homogeneous and heterogeneous) and enzymes used for the transformation of various bioderived sources into DFF. Moreover, a brief look has also been given at the transformations and applications of DFF.
