The chemical intermediate 2,5-furandimethanol has unstable properties and few domestic production companies

2,5-Furandimethanol, also known as 2,5-dihydroxymethylfuran, furan-2,5-dimethanol, 5-(hydroxymethyl)furyl alcohol, etc., is a selective hydrogenation agent for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Derived chemical intermediates, which appear as white or light yellow solids and have a molecular formula of C6H8O3, can be used to synthesize pharmaceutical intermediates, nucleoside derivatives, crown ethers, and polymeric materials such as polyester and polyurethane. They can also be used as solvents, wetting agents, Binders, surfactants, etc.

2,5-Furandimethanol, 2,5-tetrahydrofurandimethanol (THFDM), 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), and 2,5-furandicarboxaldehyde (DFF) are equivalent to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) ), has the properties of a diol and can be esterified, alkoxylated, glycidified, etherified, urethanized, and resinified. At the same time, 2,5-furandimethanol is also 5-methylfurfuryl alcohol, 2 , 5-dihydroxymethyltetrahydrofuran, 2,5-dimethyltetrahydrofuran, 2,5-dimethyltetrahydrofuran and other chemical intermediates can easily become gel-like at room temperature.

At present, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is mainly used in China as the raw material, and noble metals (pt, pd, ru, etc.) or non-noble metals (co, ni, cu, etc.) are used as catalysts, and hydrogen is used for direct hydrogenation or catalytic transfer hydrogenation. Preparation of 2,5-furandimethanol. However, due to the difficulty in obtaining 5-hydroxymethylfuran (HMF) and the high product price, the product price of 2,5-furandimethanol is also relatively expensive. In addition, the unstable nature of 2,5-furandimethanol limits the The application of its products and the market demand for 2,5-furandimethanol abroad and in China are relatively limited, and its production scale is correspondingly small.

According to the “China 25-furandimethanol Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report 2023-2027” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that at this stage, the main domestic 2,5-furandimethanol production companies include Zhongke Guosheng (Hangzhou) Technology Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Tangneng Technology Co., Ltd., Mianyang High-tech Zone Dagot Technology Co., Ltd., etc. In order to improve resource utilization and reduce production costs, the above-mentioned enterprises mostly produce 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and other related products through integrated production methods.

For example, in addition to 2,5-furandimethanol, Zhongke Guosheng (Hangzhou) Technology Co., Ltd. produces 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), 2,5-tetrahydrofurandimethanol (THFDM) and other products, Zhejiang Tangneng Technology Co., Ltd. mainly produces 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF).

Industrial analysts said that the downstream application demand of 2,5-furandimethanol is mainly concentrated on polymeric materials such as polyester and polyurethane. In addition, because 2,5-furandimethanol easily deteriorates after being stored for a long time, the single purchase volume of its downstream customers is usually small, and companies generally produce according to customer orders without stocking up in advance. In addition, some downstream companies will directly purchase the raw material 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, process and produce 2,5-furandimethanol themselves, and then use it directly.
