2-Methylimidazole-modulated 2D Cu metal–organic framework for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural hydrodeoxygenation

A bottom-up strategy was used to prepare an MOF-based catalytic material with a two-dimensional nanosheet morphology, in which 2-methylimidazole was the additive. It is of great significance in the preparation of 2,5-dimethylfuran from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural.
