Research demonstrates enhanced furfural hydrogenation to 2-methylfuran using bimetallic catalysts, highlighting efficiency benefits.
Highly dispersed and tiny PtCu particles anchored on MoS₂ nanosheets show 99.4% furfural conversion and 95.3% 2-methylfuran selectivity under the reaction conditions of 180 °C, 2.0 h, 2.0 MPa H₂ and isopropanol as the solvent, significantly superior to those of the Pt/MoS₂ and Cu/MoS₂ monometallic catalysts, mainly due to electron transfer from Cu to Pt.
