Abstract
For the conversion of fructose/methylglucoside (MG) into both methyl formate (MF) and methyl levulinate (MLev), the C-source of formate [HCOO]- remains unclear at the molecular level. Herein, reaction mechanisms catalyzed by [CH3OH2]+ in a methanol solution were theoretically investigated at the PBE0/6-311++G(d,p) level. For the conversion of fructose into MF and MLev, the formate [HCOO]- comes from the C1-atom of fructose, in which the rate-determining step lies in the reaction of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) with CH3OH to yield MF and MLev. The reaction of fructose with CH3OH kinetically tends to generate HMF intermediates rather than yield (MF + MLev). When MG is dissolved in a methanol solution, its O2, O3, and O4 atoms are closer to the first layer of the solvent than O1, O5, and O6 atoms. For the dehydration of MG with methanol into MF and MLev, the formate [HCOO]- stems from the dominant C1- and secondary C3-atoms of MG. Kinetically, MG is ready to yield (MF + MLev), whereas fructose can induce the reaction to remain at the HMF intermediate, inhibiting the further conversion of HMF with CH3OH into MF and MLev. If MG isomerizes into fructose, the reaction will be more preferable for yielding HMF rather than (MF + MLev).

Abstract
A Ru-containing complex shows good catalytic performance toward the hydrogenation of levulinic acid (LA) to γ-valerolactone (GVL) with the assistance of organic base ligands (OBLs) and CO2. Herein, we report the competitive mechanisms for the hydrogenation of LA to GVL, 4-oxopentanal (OT), and 2-methyltetrahydro-2,5-furandiol (MFD) with HCOOH or H2 as the H source catalyzed by RuCl3 in aqueous solution at the M06/def2-TZVP, 6-311++G(d,p) theoretical level. Kinetically, the hydrodehydration of LA to GVL is predominant, with OT and MFD as side products. With HCOOH as the H source, initially, the OBL (triethylamine, pyridine, or triphenylphosphine) is responsible for capturing H+ from HCOOH, leading to HCOO- and [HL]+. Next, the Ru3+ site is in charge of sieving H- from HCOO-, yielding [RuH]2+ hydride and CO2. Alternatively, with H2 as the H source, the OBL stimulates the heterolysis of H-H bond with the aid of Ru3+ active species, producing [RuH]2+ and [HL]+. Toward the [RuH]2+ formation, H2 as the H source exhibits higher activity than HCOOH as the H source in the presence of an OBL. Thereafter, H- in [RuH]2+ gets transferred to the unsaturated C site of ketone carbonyl in LA. Afterwards, the Ru3+ active species is capable of cleaving the C-OH bond in 4-hydroxyvaleric acid, yielding [RuOH]2+ hydroxide and GVL. Subsequently, CO2 promotes Ru-OH bond cleavage in [RuOH]2+, forming HCO3- and regenerating the Ru3+-active species owing to its Lewis acidity. Lastly, between the resultant HCO3- and [HL]+, a neutralization reaction occurs, generating H2O, CO2, and OBLs. Thus, the present study provides insights into the promotive roles of additives such as CO2 and OBLs in Ru-catalyzed hydrogenation.

Abstract
Al-containing catalysts, e.g., Al(OTf)3, show good catalytic performance toward the conversion of cellulose to fructose in methanol solution. Here, we report the catalytic isomerization and alcoholysis mechanisms for the conversion of cellobiose to fructose at the PBE0/6-311++G(d,p), aug-cc-pVTZ theoretical level, combining the relevant experimental verifications of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the attenuated total reflection-infrared (ATR-IR) spectra. From the alcoholysis of Al(OTf)3 in methanol solution, the catalytically active species involves both the [CH3OH2]+ Brønsted acid and the [Al(CH3O)(OTf)(CH3OH)4]+ Lewis acid. There are two reaction pathways, i.e., one through glucose (glycosidic bond cleavage followed by isomerization, w-G) and another through cellobiulose (isomerization followed by glycosidic bond cleavage, w-L). The Lewis acid ([Al(CH3O)(OTf)(CH3OH)4]+) is responsible for the aldose-ketose tautomerization, while the Brønsted acid ([CH3OH2]+) is in charge of ring-opening, ring-closure, and glycosidic bond cleavage. For both w-G and w-L, the rate-determining steps are related to the intramolecular [1,2]-H shift between C1-C2 for the aldose-ketose tautomerization catalyzed by the [Al(CH3O)(OTf)(CH3OH)4]+ species. The Lewis acid ([Al(CH3O)(OTf)(CH3OH)4]+) exhibits higher catalytic activity toward the aldose-ketose tautomerization of glycosyl-chain-glucose to glycosyl-chain-fructose than that of chain-glucose to chain-fructose. Besides, the Brønsted acid ([CH3OH2]+) shows higher catalytic activity toward the glycosidic bond cleavage of cellobiulose than that of cellobiose. Kinetically, the w-L pathway is predominant, whereas the w-G pathway is minor. The theoretically proposed mechanism has been experimentally testified. These insights may advance on the novel design of the catalytic system toward the conversion of cellulose to fructose.

Abstract
A series of organic sulfonate inner salts, viz., aprotic imidazolium- and pyridinium-based zwitterions bearing sulfonate groups (-SO3-), were synthesized for the catalytic conversion of fructose-based carbohydrates into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). The dramatic cooperation of both the cation and anion of inner salts played a crucial role in the HMF formation. The inner salts have excellent solvent compatibility, and 4-(pyridinium)butane sulfonate (PyBS) affords the highest catalytic activity with 88.2 and 95.1% HMF yields at almost full conversion of fructose in low-boiling-point protic solvent isopropanol (i-PrOH) and aprotic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), respectively. The substrate tolerance of aprotic inner salt was also studied through changing the substrate type, demonstrating its excellent specificity for catalytic valorization of fructose-moiety-containing C6 sugars, such as sucrose and inulin. Meanwhile, the neutral inner salt is structurally stable and reusable; after being recycled four times, the catalyst showed no appreciable loss of its catalytic activity. The plausible mechanism has been elucidated based on the dramatic cooperative effect of both the cation and sulfonate anion of inner salts. The noncorrosive, nonvolatile, and generally nonhazardous aprotic inner salt used in this study will benefit many biochemical-related applications.

Abstract
A series of Brønsted acidic ionic liquids (BAILs) functionalized hollow organosilica nanospheres ([C3/4Im][OTs/OTf]-Si(Et)Si, C3/4 = Pr/BuSO3H) were synthesized by two steps. The process involved the preparation of hollow nanosphere supports via a toluene-swollen sol-gel co-condensation of 1,2-bis(trimethoxysilyl)ethane and 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane in the presence of F127, and followed by a successive quaternary ammonization and protonation with imidazole, 1,3-propane/1,4-butane sultone and trifluoromethane sulfonic acid/p-toluenesulfonic acid. The adjustable acid property, hollow inner diameter (5-15 nm) and shell thickness (5-9 nm) of [C3/4Im][OTs/OTf]-Si(Et)Si are achieved by introducing different organic acids and controlling toluene concentration, respectively. The [C3/4Im][OTs/OTf]-Si(Et)Si were applied in selective conversion of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) under microwave heating. Under the optimized conditions, the [C4Im][OTs]-Si(Et)Si3.0 nanospheres with the largest inner diameter and the smallest shell thickness exhibit the highest HMF yield (79.4%, 15 min) in fructose dehydration. And the [C3Im][OTf]-Si(Et)Si0.5 nanospheres with the highest acid strength possess the highest EMF yield (70.4%, 30 min) in fructose ethanolysis. The high Brønsted acid-site density and acid strength of [C3/4Im][OTs/OTf]-Si(Et)Si catalysts accompanied by high microwave heating energy lead to excellent dehydration/ethanolysis activity. The product selectivity strongly depended on the BAILs structures and morphological characteristics of the catalyst. More importantly, the [C3/4Im][OTs/OTf]-Si(Et)Si can be reused three times without changes in leaching of BAILs, due to strong covalent bond between BAILs and silicon/carbon framework. This work will provide a simple strategy of chemically bonded BAILs on suitable supports as efficient solid acids, and an approach of combining morphology-controlled solid acids with microwave-heating for catalytic conversion of biomass/derivatives to fuels and value-added chemicals.

Abstract
In this work, a sulfonic acid-functionalized magnetic separable solid acid (Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H) was synthesized, characterized, and tested for fructose conversion to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Results indicated that the prepared catalyst had a good efficacy for fructose dehydration to HMF due to its larger specific surface area, appropriate acid amount and homogeneous acid distribution. The maximum HMF yield of this work was 96.1 mol%. It was obtained at 120 °C for 1.5 h with 100 mol% fructose conversion. More importantly, the produced HMF could be further in-situ oxidized into 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) after the replacing of the Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H with a ZnFeRuO4 catalyst, and the highest DFF yield of 90.2 mol% (based on initial fructose) was obtained after reaction another 8.5 h. The production of DFF from fructose through the above two consecutive steps avoids the intermediate HMF separation, which saves time and energy. In addition, both Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H and ZnFeRuO4 catalysts exhibited satisfied stability in the recycling experiments, which can be reused at least for five times with the HMF and DFF yield loss<5.3% and 3.3%, respectively. Finally, the plausible reaction mechanisms for fructose conversion to HMF or DFF over Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H or/and ZnFeRuO4 catalysts were also proposed in this work.

Abstract
The fundamental understanding of glucose conversion to 5-ethoxymethylfurfural (EMF) and ethyl levulinate (EL) (value-added chemicals from biomass) in ethanol solution catalyzed by a Brønsted acid is limited at present. Consequently, here, the reaction pathways and mechanism of glucose conversion to EMF and EL catalyzed by a Brønsted acid were studied, using an experimental method and quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(D) and B2PLYPD3/Def2TZVP level under a polarized continuum model (PCM-SMD). By further verification through GC/MS tests, the mechanism and reaction pathways of glucose conversion in ethanol solution catalyzed by a Brønsted acid were revealed, showing that glucose is catalyzed by proton and ethanol, and ethanol plays a bridging role in the process of proton transfer. There are three main reaction pathways: through glucose and ethyl glucoside (G/EG), through fructose, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), levulinic acid (LA), and EL (G/F/H/L/EL), and through fructose, HMF, EMF, and EL (G/F/H/E/EL). The G/F/H/E/EL pathway with an energy barrier of 20.8 kcal mol-1 is considered as the thermodynamic and kinetics primary way, in which the reaction rate of this is highly related to the proton transfer in the isomerization of glucose to fructose. The intermediate HMF was formed from O5 via a ring-opening reaction and by the dehydration of fructose, and was further converted to the main product of EMF by etherification or by LA through hydrolysis. EMF and LA are both unstable, and can partially be transformed to EL. This study is beneficial for the insights aiding the understanding of the process and products controlling biomass conversion in ethanol solution.

Abstract
Biphasic systems have received increasing attention for acid-catalyzed dehydration of hexoses to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) because of their high efficiency in in situ extraction and stabilization of HMF. Different organic solvents and acid catalysts were applied in these systems, but their effects on the dehydration activity and HMF yield, and the recycling of homogeneous acid catalysts remain largely unexplored. Here, we tested different solvent systems containing a wide range of organic solvents with low boiling points to study the effects of their chemical structures on fructose dehydration and provided stable H2O-dioxane and H2O-acetonitrile biphasic systems with high HMF yields of 76-79% using water-soluble sulfonic derivatives as homogeneous acid catalysts under mild conditions (383 K). By analyzing the partition coefficients of HMF and sulfonic derivatives, 94.3% of HMF and 87.1% of NH2SO3H were, respectively, restrained in the dioxane phase and aqueous phase in the H2O-dioxane biphasic system and easily divided by phase separation. The effects of the adjacent group in sulfonic derivatives and reaction temperature on fructose conversions and HMF yields suggest that in a specific biphasic system, the catalysts' acidity and reaction conditions significantly affect the fructose dehydration activity but hardly influence the optimal yield of HMF, and an almost constant amount of carbon loss was observed mainly due to the poor hydrothermal stability of fructose. Such developments offer a promising strategy to address the challenge in the separation and recycling of homogeneous acid catalysts in the practical HMF production.

Abstract
Vanadium-containing catalysts exhibit good catalytic activity toward the aerobic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-diformyfuran (DFF). The aerobic oxidation mechanism of HMF to DFF catalyzed by VO2+ with counterpart anion in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) solution have been theoretically investigated. In DMA solution, the stable VO2+-containing complex is the four-coordinated [V(O)2(DMA)2]+ species. For the gross reaction of 2HMF + O2 → 2DFF + 2H2O, there are three main reaction stages, i.e., the oxidation of the first HMF to DFF with the reduction of [V(O)2(DMA)2]+ to [V(OH)2(DMA)]+, the aerobic oxidation of [V(OH)2(DMA)]+ to the peroxide [V(O)3(DMA)]+, and the oxidation of the second HMF to DFF with the reduction of [V(O)3(DMA)]+ to [V(O)2(DMA)2]+. The rate-determining reaction step is associated with the C–H bond cleavage of –CH2 group of the first HMF molecule. The peroxide [V(O)3(DMA)]+ species exhibits better oxidative activity than the initial [V(O)2(DMA)2]+ species, which originates from its narrower HOMO–LUMO gap. The counteranion Cl− exerts promotive effect on the aerobic oxidation of HMF to DFF catalyzed by [V(O)2(DMA)2]+ species. The rate-determining reaction step is associated with the C–H bond cleavage of –CH2 group of the first HMF molecule oxidized by [V(O)2(DMA)2]+ species, while counteranion Cl− exhibits catalytically promotive effect.![]()

Abstract
Biomass-derived hexose constitutes the main component of lignocellulosic biomass for producing value-added chemicals and biofuels. However, the reaction network of hexose is complicated, which makes the highly selective synthesis of one particular product challenging in biorefinery. This Review focuses on the selective production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from glucose on account of its potential significance as an important platform molecule. The complex reaction network involved in glucose-to-HMF transformations is briefly summarized. Special emphasis is placed on analyzing the complexities of feedstocks, intermediates, (side-) products, catalysts, solvents, and their impacts on the reaction network. The strategies and representative examples for adjusting the reaction pathway toward HMF by developing multifunctional catalysts and promoters, taking advantage of solvent effects and process intensification, and synergizing all measures are comprehensively discussed. An outlook is provided to highlight the challenges and opportunities faced in this promising field. It is expected to provide guidance to design practical catalytic processes for advancing HMF biorefinery.

Abstract
Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a high-value platform chemical derived from renewable resources. In recent years, considerable efforts have been made to produce HMF also at industrial scale, which still faces some challenges regarding yield as well as sustainable and economic process designs. This critical Review evaluates the industrial process development of sustainable biomass conversion to HMF. Qualitative and quantitative guidelines are defined for the technological assessment of the processes described in patent literature. The formation of side products, difficulties in the separation and purification of HMF as well as catalyst regeneration were identified as major challenges in the HMF production. A first small-scale, commercial HMF production plant with a capacity of 300 tHMF per year has been operating in Switzerland since 2014.

Abstract
The fundamental understanding of the cooperativity of a Brønsted acid together with its anion for cellulose conversion in an aqueous solution is limited at present, in which cellobiose has usually been regarded as a bridge that connects monosaccharides and cellulose. The mechanism of β-cellobiose conversion to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) catalyzed by a Brønsted acid (H3O+) accompanied by counteranions in an aqueous solution has been studied using quantum chemical calculations at the M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level under a polarized continuum model (PCM-SMD). For the formation of the first HMF from cellobiose, there are three reaction pathways, i.e., through cellobiulose and glycosyl-HMF (C/H), through cellobiulose and fructose (C/F/H), and through glucose (C/G/H). For these three reaction pathways, the rate-determining steps are associated with the intramolecular [1,2]-H shift in the aldose-ketose tautomerization. C/H is the thermodynamically predominant pathway, while C/G/H is the kinetically dominant pathway. From cellobiose, the origin of the first HMF results kinetically from a small proportion of both C/H and C/F/H and from a large proportion of C/G/H. For the role of the counteranion in the catalytic activity of H3O+, the halide anions (Cl- and Br-) act as promoters, whereas both NO3- anions and carboxylate-containing anions behave as inhibitors. The roles of these anions in β-cellobiose conversion to HMF can be correlated with their electrostatic potential and atomic number, which may cause a decrease in the relative enthalpy energy and the value of entropy on interacting with the cation moiety. These insights may advance the novel design of sustainable conversion systems for cellulose conversion into HMF.

Abstract
Both the catalytic production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) from carbohydrates and the use of a catalyst obtained from residues stand out for adding value to by-products and wastes. These processes contribute to the circular economy. In this work it was evaluated optimized conditions for 5-HMF production from fructose with high yield and selectivity. The reaction was catalyzed by an acidic carbon obtained from glycerol, a byproduct of the biodiesel industry. Special attention has been given to the use of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a solvent and its influence on system activity, both in the presence and absence of O2. Glycerol's carbon with acidic properties can be effectively used as catalyst in fructose dehydration, allowed achieving conversions close to 100% with 5-HMF selectivities higher than 90%. The catalyst can be reused in consecutive batch runs. The influence of DMSO in the presence of O2 should be considered in the catalytic activity, as the stabilization of a reaction intermediate by the [O2:DMSO] complex is favored and, both fructose conversion and 5-HMF yield increase.

Abstract
The degradative condensation of hexose, which originates from the C-C cleavage of hexose and condensation of degraded hexose fragment, is one of the possible reaction pathways for the formation of humins in hexose dehydration to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Herein, the impacts of several polar aprotic solvents on the degradative condensation of fructose to small-molecule carboxylic acids and oligomers (possible precursors of humins) are reported. In particular, a close relationship between the tautomeric distribution of fructose in solvents and the mechanism of degradative condensation is demonstrated. Typically, α-fructofuranose in 1,4-dioxane and acyclic open-chain fructose in THF favor the conversion of fructose to formic acid and oligomers; α-fructopyranose in γ-valerolactone or N-methylpyrrolidone favors levulinic acid and oligomers, whereas β-fructopyranose in 4-methyl-2-pentanone favors acetic acid and corresponding oligomers. This close correlation highlights a general understanding of the solvent-controlled formation of oligomers, which represents an important step toward the rational design of effective solvent systems for HMF production.

Abstract
5-Acetoxymethyl-2-furfural (AMF) was prepared from D-fructose via 1,6-diacetylfructose (DAF) through a simple two-step reaction pathway. Immobilized enzyme (Novozym 435) was found to be the best enzymatic catalyst for the trans-esterification step (yielding 94.6% DAF). In the dehydration step, while soluble H2SO4 was found to be the best acidic catalyst (yielding 86.6% AMF), we opted to utilize heterogeneous cation exchange resin (Amberlyst 15) together with recyclable industrial solvents (1,4-dioxane) for a more sustainable AMF synthesis procedure. Although the total yield of AMF was a little lower, both the enzyme and the solid acid catalyst could be recycled for five cycles without a significant loss of activity, which has a major contribution to the cost-efficient aspect of the entire process.

Abstract
Sustainable conversion of biomass, including fructose dehydration to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), remains a challenge. Fructose can be selectively dehydrated to HMF in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) without addition of an acid catalyst. The role of DMSO is examined starting with either fructose or HMF in DMSO/water. With increasing DMSO content, it is observed that fructose conversion, HMF selectivity, and post-reaction solution acidity increase. Although DMSO degradation to sulfuric acid is a potential source of acidity and reactivity, a barium chloride precipitation test demonstrates that sulfate ions are not detectable after reaction, suggesting that DMSO is stable during reaction at 120 °C and 150 °C with oxygen present. Instead, the majority of the acidic species produced are formic acid, levulinic acid, and humins. These acids have a minimal effect on fructose conversion in DMSO. These results suggest that DMSO promotes fructose conversion mainly through solvation effects and not as an origin of acid catalysis. For HMF stabilization, the optimal molar fraction of DMSO in water is 0.20-0.43. Overall, these results indicate that DMSO can promote fructose dehydration to HMF at 120 °C.

Abstract
Herein, we show how the spatial environment in the functional pores of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) can be manipulated in order to exert control in catalysis. The underlying mechanism of this strategy relies on the placement of linear polymers in the pore channels that are anchored with catalytic species, analogous to outer-sphere residue cooperativity within the active sites of enzymes. This approach benefits from the flexibility and enriched concentration of the functional moieties on the linear polymers, enabling the desired reaction environment in close proximity to the active sites, thereby impacting the reaction outcomes. Specifically, in the representative dehydration of fructose to produce 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, dramatic activity and selectivity improvements have been achieved for the active center of sulfonic acid groups in COFs after encapsulation of polymeric solvent analogues 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone and ionic liquid.

Abstract
The use of polar aprotic solvents in acid-catalyzed biomass conversion reactions can lead to improved reaction rates and selectivities. We show that further increases in catalyst performance in polar aprotic solvents can be achieved through the addition of inorganic salts, specifically chlorides. Reaction kinetics studies of the Brønsted acid-catalyzed dehydration of fructose to hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) show that the use of catalytic concentrations of chloride salts leads to a 10-fold increase in reactivity. Furthermore, increased HMF yields can be achieved using polar aprotic solvents mixed with chlorides. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations (AIMD) show that highly localized negative charge on Cl- allows the chloride anion to more readily approach and stabilize the oxocarbenium ion that forms and the deprotonation transition state. High concentrations of polar aprotic solvents form local hydrophilic environments near the reactive hydroxyl group which stabilize both the proton and chloride anions and promote the dehydration of fructose.

Abstract
A series of MCM-41 supported metal catalysts (denoted M/D41) were prepared by using the deep eutectic solvent (DES)-mediated ionothermal synthesis strategy. Al/D41 was found to have excellent performance in the conversion of carbohydrates into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Furthermore, the production of HMF from glucose could be performed at high concentrations in choline chloride aqueous solution (CAS; 32 wt %, relative to the reaction phase) and as a result, CAS is a more promising solvent than water and DES for HMF production.

Abstract
Renewable and sustainable betaine-based catalysts (BX) derived from the betaine sugar industry or ChCl were developed for the production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from various carbohydrates. The HMF yields in the BX-based media reached up to 88 %, 66 %, 37 % and 53 %, for the conversion of fructose, glucose, cellulose, and lignocellulosic biomass, respectively. In addition, choline-O-sulfate was synthesized and demonstrated to be an efficient catalyst for the conversion of fructose to HMF. From the perspective of green and sustainable chemistry, this work demonstrates benefits not only in the preparation of sustainable catalysts but also the green production of HMF from biomass.

Abstract
Chemical transformations are highly sensitive toward changes in the solvation environment and solvents have long been used to control their outcome. Reactions display unique performance in solvents like ionic liquids or DMSO, however, isolating products from them is cumbersome and energy-consuming. Here, we develop promising alternatives by constructing solvent moieties into porous materials, which in turn serve as platforms for introducing catalytic species. Due to the high density of the solvent moieties, these porous solid solvents (PSSs) retain solvation ability, which greatly influences the performance of incorporated active sites via concerted non-covalent substrate–catalyst interactions. As a proof-of-concept, the -SO3H-incorporated PSSs exhibit high yields of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural in THF, which exceeds the best results reported using readily separable solvents and even rivals those in ionic liquids or DMSO. Given the wide application, our strategy provides a step forward towards sustainable synthesis by eliminating the concerns with separation unfriendly solvents. Solvents play important roles in chemical transformations, but isolating products from solvents is cumbersome and energy-consuming. Here, the authors develop promising alternatives by anchoring the solvent moieties onto porous materials for creating solvation environments in heterogeneous catalysts for efficient biomass conversion.

Abstract
Biomass is the only realistic major alternative source (to crude oil) of hydrocarbon substrates for the commercial synthesis of bulk and fine chemicals. Within biomass, terrestrial sources are the most accessible, and therein lignocellulosic materials are most abundant. Although lignin shows promise for the delivery of certain types of organic molecules, cellulose is a biopolymer with significant potential for conversion into high-volume and high-value chemicals. This review covers the acid-catalyzed conversion of lower value (poly)carbohydrates into valorized organic building-block chemicals (platform molecules). It focuses on those conversions performed in aqueous media or ionic liquids to provide the reader with a perspective on what can be considered a best case scenario, that is, that the overall process is as sustainable as possible.

Polar aprotic solvent-water mixture as the medium for catalytic production of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from bread waste. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2017; 245:456-462.

Abstract
Valorisation of bread waste for hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) synthesis was examined in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-, tetrahydrofuran (THF)-, acetonitrile (ACN)-, and acetone-water (1:1v/v), under heating at 140°C with SnCl4 as the catalyst. The overall rate of the process was the fastest in ACN/H2O and acetone/H2O, followed by DMSO/H2O and THF/H2O due to the rate-limiting glucose isomerisation. However, the formation of levulinic acid (via rehydration) and humins (via polymerisation) was more significant in ACN/H2O and acetone/H2O. The constant HMF maxima (26-27mol%) in ACN/H2O, acetone/H2O, and DMSO/H2O indicated that the rates of desirable reactions (starch hydrolysis, glucose isomerisation, and fructose dehydration) relative to undesirable pathways (HMF rehydration and polymerisation) were comparable among these mediums. They also demonstrated higher selectivity towards HMF production over the side reactions than THF/H2O. This study differentiated the effects of polar aprotic solvent-water mediums on simultaneous pathways during biomass conversion.
