Abstract:
Provided herein is a process for preparing a mixture including 5-(hydroxy-methyl)furfural (HMF) and one or more HMF esters of formula (I), the process including the following steps: (A-1) preparing or providing a starting mixture which includes one, two or more carbohydrate compounds and as the solvent or as a co-solvent for the carbohydrate compounds an amount of one or more carboxylic acid esters of formula (II); (A-2) subjecting the starting mixture to reaction conditions so that at least one of the one, two or more carbohydrate compounds reacts, and a fraction of the amount of one or more carboxylic acid esters of formula (II) is hydrolyzed, so that a mixture results that includes 5-(hydroxy-methyl)furfural and/or the one or more HMF esters of formula (I), one or more carboxylic acids of formula (III) and a remaining fraction of the amount of one or more carboxylic acid esters of formula (II).

Claim (Index 2):
The process according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein in the mixture resulting in step (A-2) the total amount of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural and HMF esters of formula (I) is in the range of from 0.5 to 50 wt.-%, based on the total weight of the mixture resulting in step (A-2), and/or wherein the total weight of the one, two or more carbohydrate compounds in the starting mixture prepared or provided in step (A-1) is in the range of from 1 to 70 wt.-% based on the total weight of the starting mixture.
