Description
2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is an organic chemical compound consisting of two carboxylic acid groups attached to a central furan ring. It was first reported as dehydromucic acid by Rudolph Fittig and Heinzelmann in 1876, who produced it via the action of concentrated hydrobromic acid upon mucic acid. It can be produced from certain carbohydrates and as such is a renewable resource, it was identified by the US Department of Energy as one of 12 priority chemicals for establishing the “green” chemistry industry of the future.Furan-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) has been suggested as an important renewable building block because it can substitute for terephthalic acid (PTA) in the production of polyesters and other current polymers containing an aromatic moiety.wikipedia

Uses
Interest in renewable based polymers has led to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid being proposed as a green, sustainable alternative to the widely used petroleum-based terephthalic acid in the synthesis of polyesters. 2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid is produced from oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) which is obtained from the dehydration of bio-based sugars such as fructose. 2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a renewable, greener substitute for terephthalate in the production of polyesters. It is widely used as a precursor for the synthesis of bio-based polyesters and various other polymers.Applications of FDCA in the synthesis of several metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have also been reported.
