• General Description: 1,2,5-Pentanetriol is a biorenewable C5 alcohol with potential applications as a versatile bio-based chemical platform. It can be efficiently synthesized from furfuryl alcohol via the Achmatowicz rearrangement, followed by selective hydrogenation, achieving high yields (up to 92%) under mild, solvent-free conditions. Catalytic systems such as Ni/Pt-modified mesoporous silica or metal phosphates (e.g., CoP) enable selective hydrogenative ring-opening, avoiding hydrogenolysis and offering green chemistry advantages. 1,2,5-Pentanetriol expands the portfolio of biomass-derived polyols and serves as a valuable intermediate for sustainable chemical synthesis.
