“…14 Maleic anhydrides, such as succinic, malic, and fumaric acids, can be obtained by selectively oxidizing furfural. 28 Furan, which is the simplest five-membered heterocyclic compound containing oxygen can be obtained by decarboxylation of furfural, which can be further hydrogenated to tetrahydrofuran. 29 Fuels and fuel additives, such as methylfurans, can be obtained via the etherification of furfural derivatives.…”
