Enhanced Selective Oxidation of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5-Furandicarboxylic Acid over Pt–Au/XC Bimetallic Catalysts
The catalytic valorization of biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) provides an important route toward sustainable chemical production. Herein, we report a bimetallic Pt1Au1 catalyst supported on Vulcan XC-72R carbon (Pt1Au1/XC) that enables efficient aerobic oxidation of HMF to FDCA using NaHCO3 as a weak base...
