Abstract

The formation of 5‐hydroxymethyl‐2‐furfural (HMF) and 5‐hydroxymethyl‐2‐furoic acid (HMFA) during roasting of coffee was studied. At 240°C the maximum concentration of HMF occurs after 3 min with a quick degradation up to 10 min when most of the HMF has disappeared again. Similar to 5‐hydroxymethyl‐furfural, HMFA is formed in coffee but not in a model system consisting of sucrose, alanine with or without chlorogenic acid. It was shown that HMFA is produced from different precursors than HMF namely glyceraldehyde and pyruvate. The comparison of the laboratory scale roasting with industrial roasting showed that 5‐hydroxymethyl‐furfural decreases with a higher degree of roasting whereas HMFA did not change. In the laboratory scale experiments, the highest concentration of 5‐hydroxymethyl‐furfural in coffee (909 μg/g) was obtained after 3 min and the maximum concentration of HMFA after 4 min (150 μg/g). Industrially roasted coffee contained up to 350 μg/g 5‐hydroxymethyl‐furfural and 140 μg/g HMFA.

Thermolysis of 0.05 M aqueous 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (HMF) at 27.5 MPa and 290 to 400°C led to the formation of 1,2,4-benzenetriol in yields of up to 46% at 50% HMF conversion. The reaction temperature and water density have a significant effect on the product composition. Pseudofirst-order r
