Tandem conversion xylose to 2-methylfuran with NiCu/C catalyst

Nowadays, 2-methylfuran is urgently needed especially in pharmaceutical manufacture. However, the direct synthesis of 2-methylfuran via the efficient dehydration and hydrogenation of xylose usually requires a multistep reaction. Herein, a route of tandem conversion xylose to 2-methylfuran was develo...
