摘要

This study prepared amino-modified copper-based metal-organic framework (MOF) precursors by pyrolyzing functionalized MOF ligands, resulting in nitrogen-doped carbon-supported Cu catalysts (Cu@NC), which were applied to the high-value conversion of furfural (FF) to furfuryl alcohol (FA). The catalyst achieved a 99% yield of FA under mild conditions (140 ℃, 1.5 MPa H2, 3 h). Combined with catalyst characterization, it was found that the introduced amino functional groups promoted the uniform dispersion of carbon-shell-encapsulated Cu nanoparticles during pyrolysis, effectively suppressing metal leaching. The optimal catalyst (Cu@NC1-450) exhibited excellent recyclability in no fewer than five consecutive recycling tests. This research provides a novel approach for designing non-noble metal carbon-based catalysts with promising potential for industrial FF hydrogenation.
