    High fatty alcohol production (>90 % selectivity) can be achieved though the selective hydrogenation of fatty acid methyl esters over layered double hydroxide derived CuMgAlO<inf>x</inf> catalysts in a fixed-bed reactor at 250 °C under atmospheric H<inf>2</inf>. ∼17 wt.% Cu loading CuLDHs with different Mg<sup>2+</sup>/Al<sup>3+</sup> ratios (CuMg<inf>60</inf>Al<inf>40</inf>O<inf>x</inf>, CuMg<inf>70</inf>Al<inf>30</inf>O<inf>x</inf>, CuMg<inf>75</inf>Al<inf>25</inf>O<inf>x</inf>, and CuMg<inf>80</inf>Al<inf>20</inf>O<inf>x</inf>) were prepared by co-precipitation-hydrothermal method. The Cu dispersion and species were determined by H<inf>2</inf>-TPR, consecutive H<inf>2</inf>-TPR, N<inf>2</inf>O-dissociative reaction, and in situ TR-XANES. Highly dispersed Cu metal along with cationic Cu(I) species were obtained for all CuMgAlO<inf>x</inf>. The cationic Cu(I) species (Cu<sup>+</sup>/Cu<sup>+</sup>-H) content increased with Mg<sup>2+</sup> content. In the presence of H<inf>2</inf>, the cationic Cu(I) species undergo reversible interconversion between Cu<sup>+</sup> and Cu<sup>+</sup>-H species, facilitating hydrogen dissociation/evolution. The hydrogenation activity was governed by the balance of the metallic Cu surface and the cationic Cu(I) species. The Cu<sup>+</sup> species allow preferential adsorption of C[dbnd]O ester for selective hydrogenation of FAMEs to fatty alcohol (>90 % selectivity). With Cu<inf>surface</inf>/Cu(I) ratio at 0.25 (CuMg<inf>75</inf>Al<inf>25</inf>O<inf>x</inf>), the fatty alcohol production rate of 49.3 h<sup>−1</sup> was obtained with high stability due to the reversible interconversion of Cu<sup>+</sup>/Cu<sup>+</sup>-H that prevented product re-adsorption and side reactions.

    Selective hydrogenation of methyl palmitate to hexadecanol can be manipulated by tuning Cu<sup>+</sup> species and Brønsted acid sites (BAS) of copper phyllosilicate (CuPS) catalysts with K<sup>+</sup> doping. The catalysts were prepared by impregnating K<sup>+</sup> onto reduced and non-reduced CuPS. The reactions were carried out in a fixed-bed flow reactor at 250 °C under atmospheric H<inf>2</inf>. In situ TR-XANES and Py-IR suggest that the presence of K<sup>+</sup> could stabilize Cu<sup>+</sup> species and neutralize BAS. As compared to the non-reduced sample, K<sup>+</sup> loading (0.01–0.10 wt%) on the reduced CuPS provide higher Cu<sup>+</sup> fraction (10–16%), lower BAS (0.82 to 0.16μ mol/g) and lower Cu dispersion (75 to 52%). A balance between Cu<sup>0</sup> active surface and Cu<sup>+</sup> content provides an optimum hydrogenation activity (up to 80 %). The increased Cu<sup>+</sup> species, together with the decreased BAS, does not only enhance the catalyst stability, but also hexadecanol selectivity (from 35 to 60%, at ∼50% conversion).

    Facile synthesis of the atomically dispersed hydrotalcite oxide supported copper catalysts for the selective hydrogenation of 5–hydroxymethylfurfural into 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan

    The selective hydrogenation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (BHMF) using the atomically dispersed supported copper catalyst is investigated. The hydrotalcite oxide supported copper materials (Cu<inf>(x)</inf>HTO) are facilely prepared by coprecipitating metal precursors in a methanolic solution under a tuned pH. The surface characterization involving PXRD, TEM, H<inf>2</inf>/N<inf>2</inf>O-TPR, and XAS reveals unequivocal evidence for the presence of the atomically dispersed copper on HTO surface. XAS specifically indicates the formation of mononuclear copper species, and H<inf>2</inf>/N<inf>2</inf>O-TPR strongly supports the copper atoms of Cu<inf>(5)</inf>HTO are evenly distributed in 99% dispersion. Moreover, the reduced Cu<inf>(5)</inf>HTO (r-Cu<inf>(5)</inf>HTO) enables to completely hydrogenate HMF to BHMF under mild conditions, in comparison to the poor reactivity catalyzed by the hydrotalcite oxide supported copper nanoparticles (r-Cu<inf>(4)</inf>@HTO). The dramatic enhancement of HMF hydrogenation catalyzed by r-Cu<inf>(5)</inf>HTO can be attributed to the fine distribution of copper atoms which are situated homogeneously over HTO surface as well as chemically reactive for the carbonyl group.
