Hybrid Catalysis: A Suitable Concept for the Valorization of Biosourced Saccharides to Value-Added Chemicals

Abstract

Through biomass valorization, sugars can become a major carbon resource for the production of fuels and chemicals by using catalysis. Hybrid catalysis, a direct combination of biocatalysis and chemocatalysis, may yield innovative solutions. 5- Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) is a platform molecule derived from glucose, for which fructose is a key intermediate. To overcome the thermodynamic enzymatic equilibrium between glucose and fructose, two methodologies based on hybrid catalysis are described herein. In the first method, the glucose isomerase and fructose-to-5-HMF dehydration chemocatalysts are simultaneously implemented in a multiphasic way to imply the complexation and transport of fructose. The second method proposes a route through sorbitol, obtained by the hydrogenation of glucose. Sorbitol is then enzymatically converted into fructose, whereas regeneration of the cofactor is performed in situ with an organometallic complex as a chemocatalyst.
