An ethanol solution of 2-furanmethanol at a concentration of 15% by weight was prepared by dissolving 15 g of 2-furanmethanol in 85 g of ethanol in a 200 mL reactor. Subsequently, 15 g of tin dioxide (SnO2) was added to the solution as a catalyst. The reaction mixture was stirred continuously at 150 °C for 20 h to complete the reaction. In order to compare the yields of the products under different reaction conditions, another set of experiments was set up with the same conditions as described above except that the reaction temperature was increased to 200°C. The final yield of 2-(ethoxymethyl)furan was obtained as 95%. | [References]
