摘要: 5-羟甲基糠醛(HMF)是连接生物质资源与精细化工产业的核心平台化合物，在生物质高值化转化中具有重要研究价值。其选择性氧化可制得2,5-二甲酰基呋喃(DFF)、5-羟甲基-2-呋喃甲酸(HMFCA)、2-甲酰基-5-呋喃甲酸(FFCA)及2,5-呋喃二甲酸(FDCA)等多种高附加值衍生物，在生物基高分子、医药中间体及功能材料等领域应用前景广阔。本文系统阐述了HMF氧化反应机理，总结了传统与新型催化体系的设计策略及性能优化路径，以期为HMF高效、高选择性定向氧化提供理论指导与技术支撑。光电催化(PEC)融合光催化与电催化优势，在该领域展现出显著发展潜力，本文对此进行了重点梳理。此外，本文归纳了当前HMF选择性氧化面临的核心挑战，包括催化剂稳定性不足、产物选择性调控难度大及产物分布复杂等，并从多功能催化体系设计、反应工艺优化及催化机制深度解析等方面提出未来研究方向，以期为生物质高效转化技术发展提供参考。
Abstract: 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a core platform chemical bridging biomass resources and the fine chemical industry, holding significant research value in biomass valorization. Its selective oxidation yields a range of high-value-added derivatives, including 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF), 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (HMFCA), 2-formyl-5-furancarboxylic acid (FFCA), and 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), which exhibit broad application prospects in bio-based polymers, pharmaceutical intermediates, and functional materials. This review systematically elucidates the reaction mechanism of HMF oxidation and summarizes the design strategies and performance optimization pathways for both conventional and emerging catalytic systems, aiming to provide theoretical guidance and technical support for the efficient and highly selective oxidation of HMF. Photoelectrocatalysis (PEC), which integrates the strengths of both photocatalysis and electrocatalysis, shows considerable promise in this field, and the relevant progress is highlighted herein. Furthermore, this review identifies the central challenges in the selective oxidation of HMF, including insufficient catalyst stability, difficulties in tuning product selectivity, and the complexity of product distributions. Future research directions are proposed in terms of multifunctional catalytic system design, process optimization, and in-depth mechanistic understanding, with the goal of providing a reference for the advancement of efficient biomass conversion technologies.
