CAS: 5904-71-2

Methyl 5-formylfuran-2-carboxylate (MFC) is a furan derivative that has been used for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other organic compounds. MFC is synthesized from methanol and formaldehyde in a low concentration to produce a mixture containing methyl 5-formylfuran-2-carboxylate. It can also be synthesized from methanol and formaldehyde in a high concentration to produce crystalline solid MFC. The use of MFC as a template for crystallization has been investigated with success. This compound can be used as a catalyst in the oxidative dehydrogenation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to produce 5-formylfuran. MFC is efficient and selective for this reaction, making it an attractive candidate for industrial production of furan derivatives.
