“…In the last decade, selective conversion of HMF using photoactive materials have shown a growing interest since it implies the use of solar light as energy source, ambient temperature and pressure, and ideally water as a green solvent. Among the semiconductors tested in photocatalytic conversion of HMF up to date, the materials based on TiO 2 , g-C 3 N 4 , Nb 2 O 5 , MnO 2 , rGO, ZnO, tetraalkylammonium decatungstates, and Bi 2 MoO 6 were reported [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ].…”
