Background of invention
In recent years, put into increasing energy come to identify using renewable raw materials produce organic chemicals new and Effective means.In numerous downstream chemical process technologies, the sugar of biomass derived is recognized to the conversion of high valuable chemicals For being highly important.Particularly, the saccharide of six kinds of carbon containings, i.e. hexose, such as Fructose and glucose, are to be widely known by the people certainly So the maximum amount of monosaccharide present in boundary, therefore can suitably and economically be used as chemical raw material.
Furan is produced by sugar and furan derivatives have attracted increasing concern in chemistry and catalyticing research, and according to Letter has the potential providing a main route realizing sustainability energy supply and chemicals production.In fact, with integrating life In the biorefining of material conversion process, the dehydration of obtainable sugar and/or oxidation can produce an extended familys product, including various The furan of various kinds and furan derivatives.
In the furan with maximum commercial value, furan -2,5- dioctyl phthalate (also referred to as FDCA, under It is abbreviated as FDCA in literary composition) it is to include medicine, insecticide, antibacterial agent, spice, some industries of agricultural chemicalses and extensively The valuable intermediate serving many purposes in the manufacture application of the polymeric material (for example, biological plasticss resin) of scope. Therefore, FDCA is considered as the green substitute of p-phthalic acid (TPA), i.e. a kind of petroleum base monomer, and it is that the whole world is annual One of petroleum chemicals of maximum volume producing.In fact, FDCA is accredited as optimal 12 kind priority by USDOE One of compound, these compounds are all " green " chemistry being used for establishing future by the chemicals that sugar is made for high added value, And therefore, its be named as one of " giant being sunk into sleep " of reproducible intermediate chemicals (Werpy and Petersen, Top Value Added Chemicals from Biomass.US Department of Energy, Biomass, volume 1, 2004).
Although have pointed out various methods for large-scale production FDCA (with regard to summary, see, e.g. Tong et al., Appl.Catalysis A：General, 385,1-13,2010), but the key industry of FDCA synthesis currently relies on hexose such as The chemical dehydration of glucose or Fructose is intermediate 5 hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF), and then chemical oxidation is FDCA.However, according to Currently the FDCA production process via dehydration is usually nonselective for report, unless it is newly formed, unstable intermediate product Soon it is converted into more stable material.Therefore, the major technique barrier in the production and use of FDCA is that exploitation is effective Dewatering process with the sugar of selective biomass derived.
Accordingly, it would be desirable to exploitation by alternative means produce this highly important compound and many other chemicals with The method of metabolite, this means are reproducible succedaneum not only for petroleum-based feedstock, and less and are provided using the energy This intensive technology.Particularly, the selectivity of sugar dehydration controls can be a very powerful technology, produce extensively multiple Extra cheap construction unit.
