Abstract: Cellulose could be converted into the platform compound 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(5-HMF) directly through chemical conversion. Effective dissolution of cellulose was a long and difficult task in the process of preparing 5-HMF from cellulose through catalytic conversion. In this paper, the research progress of catalytic conversion of cellulose to 5-HMF in different solvents was reviewed, and the future research was prospected.

Key words: biomass, cellulose, platform compounds, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural
