Polyols such as 1,5-pentadiol, 1,6-hexanediol, and 1,2,6-hexanetriol are crucial chemicals, traditionally derived from non-renewable fossil sources. In the pursuit of sustainable development, exploring renewable environmentally benign routes for their production becomes imperative. Furfural 5-hydroxymethylfurfural C5 C6 biomass-derived platform molecules, which have potential in synthesis various polyols through hydrogenation hydrogenolysis reactions. Currently, there is an extensive body literature transformation furan compounds. However, a comprehensive review compounds to lacking. We summarized recent years about ring-opening reaction involved converting polyols. This article reviews research progress on furfural, furfuryl alcohol, 2-methylfuran 1,2-pentadiol, 1,4-pentadiol, 1,2,5-pentanetriol, well 1,2-hexanediol, 1,2,6-hexanetriol. The effects supported Pd, Pt, Ru, Ni, Cu, Co, bimetallic catalysts discussed examining synergistic metal sites, acidic/basic hydrogen spillover, etc. Reaction parameters like temperature, pressure, solvent considered. ring opening catalytic rings summarized, mechanisms single-metal processes conditions summarized. It believed that this will act key reference inspiration researchers field.
