The direct conversion into furfuryl alcohol, methylfuran and furan via metal-catalyzed hydrogenation, reduction and decarbonylation positions furfural as a strategic and ultimate industrial source for the production of a wide range of
derivatives. Furfuryl amine, furoic acid, α-methylfurfuryl alcohol can be produced in one step from furfural. Other important
fine chemicals are 2-acetylfuran, 2,5-dimethoxydihydrofuran and 5-dimethylaminomethylfurfuryl alcohol.
