The effect of high graphitic nitrogen loading in the NNC on the catalytic production of FDCA was demonstrated and discussed. ? 2018 The Royal Society of Chemistry.[SDGs]SDG12A metal-free, high nitrogen-doped nanoporous graphitic carbon catalyst for an effective aerobic HMF-to-FDCA conversionjournal article10.1039/c6gc02118b2-s2.0-85017414828https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85017414828&doi=10.1039%2fc6gc02118b&partnerID=40&md5=83f4a6c4d1aea25a097dc380a4a5b187
