Phosphorus pentoxide (P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>)/metal chloride mixtures could significantly improve 5-HMF yield and selectivity for the catalytic conversion of fructose under mild conditions, whereas neither P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> nor tested metal chloride alone gave reasonable performances. A maximum 5-HMF yield of 75% with ∼85% selectivity could be achieved within 30 min at 80 °C. ...[more]
