Abstract
Plant biomass is considered a major source of renewable carbon feedstock that is a viable alternative to crude oil and natural gas and provides compounds with low carbon footprint. The transition of the polymer industry to renewable plant-based raw materials will contribute to solving global environmental problems and ensure the sustainability and environmental safety of plastics production. This paper reports a simple and inexpensive synthesis of 5,5'-[oxybis(methylene)] bis[2-furaldehyde] (OBFA) and 5,5'-[oxybis(methylene)] bis-[2-furanmethanol] (OBFM) with an isolation yield of 95-97%, which are important biorenewable furan monomers that can become the basis for obtaining promising furan polyimines, polyesters and polyurethanes. The obtained compound was analyzed using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and gaseous phase chromatography (GC).
Keywords: 5-HMF, OBFM, OBFA, biomass, monomers
