| Abstract | Furan derivatives, such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), obtained from acid-catalyzed dehydration of carbohydrates, can serve as renewable chemical platforms for the production of fuels and chemical intermediates. Addition of an inorganic salt to concentrated aqueous solutions of fructose (30 wt% fructose on salt free basis) in biphasic systems containing an organic extracting phase improves HMF yields by increasing the partitioning of HMF into the extracting phase, as measured by the partition coefficient, R, equal to the concentration of HMF in the organic phase normalized by the concentration in the aqueous phase. We have studied the impact of solvent choice on HMF yield using primary and secondary alcohols, ketones, and cyclic ethers in the C$_{3}$–C$_{6}$ range as extracting solvents in biphasic systems saturated with NaCl. Biphasic systems containing C$_{4}$ solvents generated the highest HMF yields within each solvent class. Tetrahydrofuran demonstrated the best combination of high HMF selectivity (83%) and high extracting power (R = 7.1) at 423 K. The presence of NaCl provided the additional benefit of creating biphasic systems using solvents that are completely miscible with water in the absence of salt. We have also studied the impact of different salts on HMF yield in systems using 1-butanol as the extracting solvent. Na$^{+}$ and K$^{+}$ showed the best combination of extracting power and HMF selectivity of the monovalent and divalent chloride salts tested. Changing the anion of the salt from Cl$^{−}$ to Br$^{−}$ resulted in R-values and HMF selectivity values resembling the non-salt system, while changing to the SO$_{4}$ $^{2−}$ divalent species generated a high R-value (8.1), but a low HMF selectivity value (71%). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
