Oxygen-incorporated 3D flower-like MoS₂ microsphere as a bifunctional catalyst for effective synthesis of 2,5-diformyfuran from fructose

Abstract

It is challenging to effectively convert fructose to 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) over a simple and low-cost bifunctional catalyst. In this study, oxygen-incorporated 3D flower-like MoS2 microspheres are prepared by a simple...

In Situ Carbon-Confined MoSe2 Catalyst with Heterojunction for Highly Selective CO2 Hydrogenation to Methanol

“…At the same time, the CH 3 O * intermediate generated by CO hydrogenation was more likely to undergo C-O cleavage to generate CH 3 * and OH * at the active sites, resulting in a high CH 4 selectivity (10.2%) [32]. In addition, a small amount of dimethyl ether was generated by further dehydration of methanol, which was due to the weak acidity generated from the oxidation of the surface of MoSe 2 [61]. The selectivity of methanol increased to 89.9% at a CO 2 conversion of 4.3% over the MoSe 2 /C catalyst, prepared by using coconut shell carbon as support.…”
