Process for production of hexanetriol from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural

Industrial scale conversions of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to commodity chemicals such as 1,2,6-hexanetriol and 1,6-hexanediol by chemocatalytic conversions using hydrogen and a heterogeneous reduction catalyst are provided. The reactions are suitable for use in continuous flow reactors. Methods of car...
