Abstract:
5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is considered to be one of the most pivotal multifunctional biomass platform chemicals. This Review discusses recent advances in catalytic oxidation of HMF towards high-value products. The reaction mechanism of different noble metals and the path of HMF oxidation to high-value products have been deeply investigated in the noble metal catalytic system. The reaction mechanisms of different noble metals and HMF conversion paths were compared in detail. Moreover, the factors affecting the performance of different noble metal catalysts were summarized. Finally, effective strategies were put forward to improve the catalytic performance of noble metal catalysts. The purpose is to provide a valuable reference for the academic research on the preparation of oxidation products from biomass-based HMF and the industrial application of noble metal catalysts.

Alkynes to Aldehydes and Ketones: Hydroboration-Oxidation
One of the convenient methods for the preparation of aldehydes and ketones is via hydration of alkynes. Hydroboration-oxidation of alkynes is an indirect hydration reaction in which an alkyne is treated with borane followed by oxidation with alkaline peroxide to form an enol that rapidly converts into an aldehyde or a ketone. Terminal alkynes form aldehydes, whereas internal alkynes give ketones as the final product.
Oxidation of Alcohols
The process of oxidation in a chemical reaction is observed in any of the three forms:
Oxidation of Alkenes: Syn Dihydroxylation with Osmium Tetraoxide
Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...
