Erneuerbares Nylon: 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), das aus erneuerbaren Quellen wie D-Fructose zugänglich ist, wurde in nur drei Stufen mit einer sehr guten Gesamtselektivität in Caprolacton überführt. Dieser neue Ansatz umfasst zwei Hydrierungen, die 1,6-Hexandiol liefern, und dessen oxidative Cyclisierung zu Caprolacton. Dieses wurde schließlich zu Caprolactam umgesetzt.
