5-Methylfurfural is an organic compound with the formula C6H6O2. An aldehyde that is derived through various extractions and reductions from cellulose products,[5][6] it has applications as a synthetic intermediate[7] relevant to the fields of medicine, agriculture and cosmetics.[8] It is a food additive, and has FEMA number 270s and JECFA number 745.[2] Reduction of 5-methylfurfural gives the product 5-methylfurfuryl alcohol.[9]

Synthesis

edit

5-Methylfurfural was first successfully synthesized in (19th century?) and may be produced from the dehydration of sucrose.[5] Several synthetic pathways have been proposed from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural.[7][10][11] The compound has also been produced from rhamnose historically in 1891[5] and in the 21st century,[12] in the latter case with the aim to use it as a precursor to biogasoline.[8]
