Abstract

The special features of the oxidation of furfural by aqueous hydrogen peroxide in the presence of vanadyl sulfate and ethanol has been studied for the first time. It has been established that this reaction proceeds with the formation of previously unknown oxidation products of  furan compounds, one of which was isolated from the reaction mixture as the ethyl ester. It was established by spectral methods and qualitative reactions that this product is 5-ethoxycarbonyl-4-hydroxy-3-oxo-2(3H)-furanone.
