Methods for providing effective, efficient and convenient ways of producing 2-5-furandicarboxylic acid are presented. In addition, compositions of 2-5-furandicarboxylic acid including 2-5-furandicarboxylic acid, and at toast one byproduct are preserved, in some aspects, 4-deoxy-S-dehydroglucaric acid is dehydrated to obtain the 2-5-furandicarboxylic acid, A solvents catalyst, and/or reactant may he combined with the 4-deoxy-S-dehydroglucaric acid to produce a reaction product Including the 2-5-furandicarboxylic acid. In some arrangements, the reaction product may additionally include water and/or byproducts. |
