Furan is aromatic because one of the lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom is delocalized into the ring, creating a 4n+2 aromatic system similar to benzene. Because of the aromaticity, the molecule is flat and lacks discrete double bonds. The other lone pair of electrons of the oxygen atom extends in the plane of the flat ring system. The sp2 hybridization is to allow one of the lone pairs of oxygen to reside in a p orbital and thus allow it to interact within the pi-system.
In 1780 by Carl Wilhelm Scheele, the first Furan (CAS NO.110-00-9) derivative to be described was 2-furoic acid. Another important derivative, furfural, was reported by Johann Wolfgang Döbereiner in 1831 and characterised nine years later by John Stenhouse. Furan itself was first prepared by Heinrich Limpricht in 1870, although he called it tetraphenol.
Furan (CAS NO.110-00-9) is mainly used to produce large quantities of hot-box process core Binder.
Furan can be obtained from FURFURAL by oxidation and decarboxylation of the resulting furan-2-carboxylic acid, the FURFURAL being derived by destructive distillation of corn cobs in the presence of SULFURIC ACID.
the Feist-Benary synthesis is the organic synthesis of classic furan.
and there is a simple synthesis methods for furans is the reaction of 1,4-diketones with PHOSPHORUS PENTOXIDE in the Paal-Knorr Synthesis. It is interesting that the Thiophene formation reaction of 1,4-diketones with Lawesson's reagent also forms furans as side products.

Behavior of Furan (CAS NO.110-00-9) is quite dissimilar to that of the more typical heterocyclic ethers such as tetrahydrofuran due to its aromaticity, .It is considerably more reactive than benzene in electrophilic substitution reactions, due to the electron-donating effects of the oxygen heteroatom. Examination of the resonance contributors shows the increased electron density of the ring, leading to increased rates of electrophilic substitution.
