Abstract :

Nowadays, due to the reduction of fossil fuels, the use of renewable energy sources is highly regarded. Here upon, a growing interest has recently been devoted to fuels and chemicals from the sustainable biomass resource, which not only reduce the consumption of fossil resources, but environmental pollution will be prevented. In this context, 5-Hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF), which is a dehydration product of carbohydrates such as fructose, glucose, inulin is considered to have particularly high potential as one of the most usable platforms chemicals and can be used as a various precursor for the production of fine chemicals, plastics, pharmaceuticals and liquid fuels. In recent years, toward other raw materials, there is growing focus on the synthesis of HMF from fructose, because the fructofuranoic structure of fructose cause of acid-promoted dehydration be more facile. Therefore, fructose has been desired feedstock to compare the efficiency of catalytic systems for biomass conversion. In this respect, preparation of highly active catalyst for the conversion is very important. Hence, Graphene oxide (GO) prepared from Hummer,s method was proven to be a green and efficient carbocatalyst for the dehydration of fructose into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). The most common approach to maximizing surface area of catalysts, is using a support, the materials over which the catalysts are spread. The metal-containing catalysts often give a relative high yield. In continuing previous report, we study V2O5/M0O3 based on GO as nanocatalyst in the dehydration process of fructose and turns to 5-HMF. Ease of handling, greater selectivity, simple workup, and recoverability of catalysts and high yield are advantages of this reaction.
