Biomass conversion via 5- hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) as a platform chemical is highly attractive because almost all carbon atoms could he retained in the downstream chemicals under mild reaction conditions. Here we summarize recent fundamental researches and industrial progresses on all involved processes including biomass degradation to hexoses, HMF formation, hydrogenation and oxidation of HMF.展开更多
