Synthesis of 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan and furan-2,5-diylbis(methylene) diacetate from apple pomace waste via chemobiological catalysis

The direct valorization of real agricultural waste into high-value furan derivatives remains challenging because biomass deconstruction and selective downstream upgrading generally require chemically distinct catalytic environments. Here, a sequential chemobiological platform int...
