Lignocellulosic biomass is a promising alternative for the replacement of limited fossil resources to produce various chemical compounds, such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural, vanillin, vanillic acid, ferulic acid, syringaldehyde, and 4-aminobenzoic acid. However, the complex biomass structure is a limitation to making effective use of this naturally found feedstock. This research presents a data set of different compounds obtained directly from forest residues, with special emphasis on achieving effective utilization of the biomass. The extraction method and the catalyst are considered as the two main factors in this valorization process.
