An efficient strategy for the conversion of biomass derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into 2-hydroxy-3-methylcyclopent-2-enone (MCP) by an intramolecular aldol condensation of 1-hydroxyhexane-2,5-dione (HHD) has been developed.

An efficient strategy for the conversion of biomass derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) into 2-hydroxy-3-methylcyclopent-2-enone (MCP) by an intramolecular aldol condensation of 1-hydroxyhexane-2,5-dione (HHD) has been developed. Further transformations of MCP towards the diol, enol acetate, levulinic acid and N-heterocyclic compounds are also reported.
