The biomass‐derived alcohol oxidation reaction (BDAOR) holds great promise for sustainable production of chemicals. However, selective electrooxidation of alcohols to value‐added aldehyde compounds is still challenging. Herein, we report the electrocatalytic BDAORs to selectively produce aldehydes using single‐atom ruthenium on nickel oxide (Ru1‐NiO) as a catalyst in the neutral medium. For electrooxidation of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), Ru1‐NiO exhibits a low potential of 1.283 V at 10 mA cm−2, and an optimal 2,5‐diformylfuran (DFF) selectivity of 90 %. Experimental studies reveal that the neutral electrolyte plays a critical role in achieving a high aldehyde selectivity, and the single‐atom Ru boosts HMF oxidation in the neutral medium by promoting water dissociation to afford OH*. Furthermore, Ru1‐NiO can be extended to selective electrooxidation of a series of biomass‐derived alcohols to corresponding aldehydes, which are conventionally difficult to obtain in the alkaline medium.

“…Nevertheless, selective oxidation of biomass-based alcohols to aldehydes remains less-explored. [17][18][19][20] The use of alkaline media severely hinders aldehyde synthesis. On one hand, aldehydes suffer from basecatalyzed dimerization or aldol condensation reactions at high pH value.…”

“…The subsequent oxidation of DFF to FFCA and FDCA mainly depends on the potential and reaction time (i.e., amount of charge). [ 19c,29 ] In essence, metal oxide catalysts will be oxidized to hydroxyl oxides under corresponding high voltage, which is considered to be the active site for the formation of FDCA. [ 30 ] In addition, the high potential also promotes the deprotonation of DFF, i.e., further oxidation.…”

The conversion of biomass is a favorable alternative to the fossil energy route to solve the energy crisis and environmental pollution. As one of the most versatile platform compounds, 5-hydroxymethylfural (HMF) can be transformed to various value-added chemicals via electrolysis combining with renewable energy. Here, the recent advances in electrochemical oxidation of HMF, from reaction mechanism to reactor design are reviewed. First, the reaction mechanism and pathway are summarized systematically. Second, the parameters easy to be ignored are emphasized and discussed. Then, the electrocatalysts are reviewed comprehensively for different products and the reactors are introduced. Finally, future efforts on exploring reaction mechanism, electrocatalysts, and reactor are prospected. This review provides a deeper understanding of mechanism for electrochemical oxidation of HMF, the design of electrocatalyst and reactor, which is expected to promote the economical and efficient electrochemical conversion of biomass for industrial applications.

“…Among BEOR, the anodic 5-hydroxymethylfurfural oxidation reaction (HMFOR) has drawn the interest of many researchers − because 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), as the main product from HMFOR, can be used to produce important polymers, such as polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate, and P-ethylene glycol butyl ester. , HMFOR is one of the good choices to replace anodic OER, integrating with HER to form the HMFOR//HER electrolyzer device. Besides obtaining hydrogen at the cathode, some products that are more valuable than oxygen can be obtained at the anode, which can maximize economic benefits under the same energy consumption as that of pure water splitting (OER//HER).…”

Affected by the slow kinetic oxygen evolution reaction (OER), the cell voltage of water splitting is usually beyond 1.5 V, causing high energy consumption to produce hydrogen. Herein, heterostructural Ni3N–NiMoN nanowires supported on carbon cloth (Ni3N–NiMoN/CC) are successfully fabricated, and they can act as bifunctional electrocatalysts, exhibiting a low overpotential of 74 mV at 100 mA cm–2 for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and a low potential of 1.39 V at 50 mA cm–2 for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural oxidation reaction (HMFOR), respectively. The HMFOR//HER device constructed by Ni3N–NiMoN/CC achieves a very low cell voltage of ∼1.29 V at 10 mA cm–2, which is 0.32 V lower than that of the OER//HER device. Specially, a value-added product of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid is obtained. Additionally, density functional theory calculations are carried out. This work provides a promising strategy to further reduce the cell voltage to generate hydrogen by replacing OER with biomass oxidation.
