Selective Dehydration of Carbohydrate into ۵-Hydroxymethylfurfural and Levulinic acidusing Acidic Periodic Mesoporous Organosilicas (PMOs)

Selective dehydration of fructose into ۵-hydroxymethylfurfural and levulinic acid can be catalyzed byusing the synergistic collaboration of active sites and plugging structures in Periodic Mesoporous Organosilicas(PMOs) at different solvents. Fructose can be converted into ۵-Hydroxymethylfurfural with a ۹۵% yield and ۹۹%conversion in DMSO as a solvent using Plug-Ethyl-PMO at ۱۴۰ ˚C. On the other hand, levulinic acid with a ۹۰%yield can be produced from fructose (۹۸% conversion) in GVL as a solvent using Unplug-Ethyl-PMO at ۱۶۰ ˚C.
