Abstract
Environmentally friendly and efficient synthesis of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), a polyester building block chemical from biomass, was carried out in water by aerobic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) with highly cross-linked, robust structured, and thermally stable Feᴵᴵᴵ-porous organic polymer (Feᴵᴵᴵ-POP-1) material containing basic porphyrin subunits and iron metal center. EPR analysis confirmed that the catalyst retained the oxidation state of Fe(III) after catalysis and can be reused.
