5-Hydroxymethylfurfural is a furanic compound derived from the degradation of sugars. It can be derived from reducing sugars via acid-catalyzed degradation or the Maillard reaction during the heating and storage of foods. 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural is an intermediate in the synthesis of a variety of compounds including 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF), 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDA), 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (5-(hydroxymethyl)furfuryl alcohol; Item No. 20658), and dimethylfuran (DMF), among others. 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural has been found in the marine algae L. undulata and scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl...
