Product Information
Name:5-(Hydroxymethyl)furan-2-carbonitrile
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Ammonium hydroxide reacts with 5-hydroxymethylfurfural in the presence of a catalyst to produce 5-(hydroxymethyl)furan-2-carbonitrile. The reaction is catalyzed by copper and zinc oxide at high temperature, and the product is obtained as a mixture of cis and trans isomers. The yield of the reaction can be increased by using an excess of ammonia as the nitrogen source. Kinetic experiments have shown that the rate determining step for this reaction is hydration. Furfural oxidation takes place in aerobic conditions in the presence of a refluxing solution of ammonium chloride.
