    Abstract: A process for preparing 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), characterized in that a) solutions (called starting solution hereinafter) comprising a hexose and an organic solvent having a boiling point greater than 200°C (at standard pressure) (called high boilers for short) and steam are supplied to a reaction vessel, b) a conversion of the hexose to HMF in the presence of steam with simultaneous distillative removal of the HMF is effected in the reaction vessel and c) the distillate obtained is an aqueous, HMF-containing solution (called distillate hereinafter).

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process forpreparingfuran-2,5-dicarboxylic acid, comprising the following steps: preparing or providing a starting mixture comprising5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF),5,5'-[oxy-bis(methylene)]bis-2-furfural (di-HMF), and water,subjecting said starting mixture to oxidation conditions in the presence of an oxygen-containing gas and a catalytically effective amount of a heterogeneous catalyst comprising one or more noble metals on a support so that both HMF and di-HMF react to give furane-2,5-dicarboxylic acid in a product mixture also comprising water and oxidation by-products. Moreover the present invention relates to the use of a catalyst comprising one or more noble metals on a support as an heterogeneous oxidation catalyst for catalyzing in an aqueous starting mixture the reaction of both HMF and di-HMF to furane-2,5-dicarboxylic acid.
