Lomelí-Rodríguez, M., Corpas-Martínez, J. R., Willis, S., Mulholland, R., & Lopez-Sanchez, J. A. (2018). Synthesis and characterization of renewable polyester coil coatings from biomass-derived isosorbide, FDCA, 1, 5-pentanediol, succinic acid, and 1, 3-propanediol. Polymers, 10(6), 600.

Abstract. This research study provides a range of fully bio-derived polyester coil coatings with tunable properties of industrial interest, highlighting the importance of renewable polymers towards a successful bioeconomy

Busch, R., Graubaum, H. J., Gruenwald, J., & Faergemann, J. (2009). Therapeutic effect of 1, 5-pentanediol for herpes simplex labialis: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Advances in therapy, 26(7), 719-727.

Abstract.  The objective of the present study was to examine the prophylactic and therapeutic efficacy of 1,5-pentanediol (PD) gel in patients with recurrent episodes of herpes labialis.

Brentzel, Z. J., Barnett, K. J., Huang, K., Maravelias, C. T., Dumesic, J. A., & Huber, G. W. (2017). Chemicals from biomass: Combining ring‐opening tautomerization and hydrogenation reactions to produce 1, 5‐pentanediol from furfural. ChemSusChem, 10(7), 1351-1355.

Abstract. A process for the synthesis of 1,5-pentanediol (1,5-PD) with 84 % yield from furfural is developed, utilizing dehydration/hydration, ring-opening tautomerization, and hydrogenation reactions.

Nakagawa, Y., & Tomishige, K. (2012). Production of 1, 5-pentanediol from biomass via furfural and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol. Catalysis today, 195(1), 136-143.

Abstract. Production of 1,5-pentanediol from tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, which can be produced from biomass via furfural, is reviewed. 

Koso, S., Ueda, N., Shinmi, Y., Okumura, K., Kizuka, T., & Tomishige, K. (2009). Promoting effect of Mo on the hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol to 1, 5-pentanediol over Rh/SiO2. Journal of Catalysis, 267(1), 89-92.

Abstract. Furanic compounds are promising intermediates in the production of non-petroleum-derived chemicals because other biomass-related raw materials usually have a much higher oxygen content.

Koso, S., Furikado, I., Shimao, A., Miyazawa, T., Kunimori, K., & Tomishige, K. (2009). Chemoselective hydrogenolysis of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol to 1, 5-pentanediol. Chemical communications, (15), 2035-2037.

Abstract. Direct conversion of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, which is one of the biomass-derived chemicals, to 1,5-pentanediol was realized by chemoselective hydrogenolysis catalyzed by Rh/SiO2 modified with ReOx species, and this reaction route gave higher yield than the conventional multi-step method.

Gnanamani, M. K., Martinelli, M., Badoga, S., Hopps, S. D., & Davis, B. H. (2018). Dehydration of 1, 5‐Pentanediol over CeO2‐MeOx Catalysts. ChemCatChem, 10(20), 4629-4635.

Abstract. The defect sites on CeO2 catalyze both dehydration and cyclization reactions for 1,5-pentanediol.

Al-Yusufi, M., Steinfeldt, N., Eckelt, R., Atia, H., Lund, H., Bartling, S., ... & Köckritz, A. (2022). Efficient Base Nickel-Catalyzed Hydrogenolysis of Furfural-Derived Tetrahydrofurfuryl Alcohol to 1, 5-Pentanediol. ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering.

Abstract.  The highest yield of 1,5-PeD was 88% in a batch system and 73% in a flow system using 40Ni-La reduced.
