As a useful and renewable chemical building block from biomass, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) has become an increasingly desirable platform chemical as a terephthalic acid replacement for polymerization. In this work, an efficient and highly selective biocatalytic approach for the synthesis of FDCA from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) was successfully developed using a TEMPO/laccase system coupled with <i>Pseudomonas putida</i> KT2440. TEMPO/laccase afforded the selective oxidation of the hydr ...[more]
