A convenient, mild and environment-friendly dehydration reaction of fructose in ionic liquid using phosphorous pentoxide (P(2)O(5)) has been investigated. The acidic nature of P(2)O(5) along with its hygroscopic properties has been successfully utilized to afford 81.2% yield of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF)
