Preparation of 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfural by the Catalytic Degradation of Cellulose in an Ionic Liquid/Organic Biphasic System

This work has established the optimum reaction conditions in a biphasic system using microcrystalline cellulose as the raw material, an ionic liquid as the solvent, metal chloride as a catalyst, and an organic solvent as the extraction reagent. The optimum reaction conditions were microcrystalline c...
