Abstract
Using gold and palladium supported catalysts, the selective hydrogenation of furfuryl alcohol into 2-methylfuran at 25 °C was examined. The use of 2-methylfuran has become applicable in the perfumery and personalised care product industry, and it has been shown that there are two conditions under which Au:Pd/SiO2 catalysts are successful for selectivity to 2-methylfuran at 25 °C and (1 bar, H2). Moreover, this study has shed light on the effectiveness of several reaction conditions (supports and catalyst amount).
