5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), also known as 5-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-furaldehyde, is a naturally occurring organic compound formed through the acid-catalyzed dehydration of hexose sugars such as fructose and glucose. It has been identified as one of the most important bio-based platform chemicals of the 21st century. With its unique furan ring structure bearing both an aldehyde and a hydroxymethyl functional group, 5-HMF serves as a versatile chemical building block that can be transformed into a wide range of value-added compounds — making it a key enabler for the emerging bio-economy.
