Apart from a short introduction that describes biomass and its platform chemicals; this manuscript endevours to analyze and classify the enormous literature that has been generated for biomass conversion over a new class of heterogeneous catalysts metal–organic frameworks (MOFs); the recent progress of sugar conversion over MOFs based catalysis into valuable chemicals such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) and the subsequent secondary platform chemicals such as 2,5-dimethylfuran, ethyl levulinate and lactic acid was investigated. The smart selection of MOFs’ building units and reaction solvents are critically discussed. The catalytic potential of different MOFs and composite MOFs was also investigated by demonstrating their remarkable performance with salutary examples relevant to biomass catalytic conversions into initial and secondary platform chemicals.

This review also gives a state-of-the-art for the corresponding reaction kinetics and reaction mechanisms regarding the discussed sugar conversion.

除了介绍生物质及其平台化学物质的简短介绍之外；该手稿致力于分析和分类在新一类的非均相催化剂金属有机框架（MOF）上用于生物质转化的大量文献；研究了基于MOF催化将糖转化为有价值的化学品（例如5-羟甲基糠醛（5-HMF））和随后的次级平台化学品（例如2,5-二甲基呋喃，乙酰丙酸乙酯和乳酸）的最新进展。批判性地讨论了MOF的构建单元和反应溶剂的明智选择。

该综述还给出了关于所讨论的糖转化的相应反应动力学和反应机理的最新技术。
