Efficient one‐pot oxidative esterification of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to furan‐2,5‐dimethylcarboxylate (FDMC) was achieved under extremely mild reaction conditions by using AuPd alloy nanoparticles (NPs) supported on Fe 3 O 4 . A high yield of FDMC (92 %) was obtained at room temperature under atmospheric O 2 . The reaction proceeded through the synergistic effects of the AuPd heterobimetallic catalyst system. The most effective molar ratio of noble metal contents for HMF oxidation was 1.00:1.18. If Au‐Fe 3 O 4 NPs were used as the catalyst, selective synthesis of 5‐hydroxymethylfuroic acid methyl ester (HMFE) was achieved. Additionally, the AuPd‐Fe 3 O 4 catalyst could be successfully reused.
