Abstract:
A process for preparing furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid is disclosed. The process includes the following steps: preparing or providing a starting mixture including 5-(hydroxy-methyl)furfural (HMF), 5,5′-[oxy-bis(methylene)]bis-2-furfural (di-HMF), and water; subjecting said starting mixture to oxidation conditions in the presence of an oxygen-containing gas and a catalytically effective amount of a heterogeneous catalyst including one or more noble metals on a support so that both HMF and di-HMF react to give furane-2,5-dicarboxylic acid in a product mixture also including water and oxidation by-products. The use of a catalyst is also disclosed, the catalyst including one or more noble metals on a support as an heterogeneous oxidation catalyst for catalyzing in an aqueous starting mixture the reaction of both HMF and di-HMF to furane-2,5-dicarboxylic acid.

Claim (Index 9):
The process according to  claim 1 , wherein the step of preparing said starting mixture comprises\n (a1) preparing or providing a material mixture comprising\n one, two or more compounds selected from the group consisting of hexoses, oligosaccharides comprising hexose units, and polysaccharides comprising hexose units, and \n (a2) subjecting said material mixture to reaction conditions so that a mixture results comprising\n HMF, \n di-HMF, and \n water.
