Microwave-assisted highly efficient transformation of ketose/aldose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) in a simple phosphate buffer system

Abstract

An acidic phosphate buffer system is developed to highly-selectively catalyze ketoses/aldoses dehydrating into 5-HMF without undesirable rehydration under microwave irradiation.
