What is 2,5-Furandimethanol?
Description
5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfuryl alcohol is a heterocyclic organic compound that is naturally produced by certain wood-inhabiting fungi. It can be derived by the reduction of the formyl group of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfuryl alcohol can be used as a building block in the enzymatic synthesis of biobased polyesters.
