Abstract

We synthesized 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from carbohydrates using metal chloride catalysts. A 33.2 % yield of HMF was obtained from raw Dioscorea composita biomass with high starch by using a catalyst system composed of CrCl3·6H2O and LaCl3·6H2O at 120 °C for 4 h in N,N-dimethylacetamide containing lithium chloride. The catalyst system is also cost-effective for the conversion of soluble starch into HMF. In addition, levulinic acid was not formed in the reactions.
