A new type of biomass‐derived non‐ionic surfactants has been obtained by reacting hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), glycerol, and fatty alcohols. For instance, 5‐(octyloxymethyl)furfural glyceryl acetal can be obtained in a one‐pot process by etherification of HMF with fatty alcohols followed by acetalization with glycerol. For a successful solid catalyst, acidity and polarity have to be optimized to improve
