However, the design of effective catalyst for converting furfural into 1,5-pentadiol under mild reaction condition remained a great challenge. This work reported the hydrogenolysis of furfural into 1,5-pentadiol using the Pt nanoparticles supported silicalite-1 as effective and recyclable catalyst. The Pt/silicalite-1 catalyst was synthesized by the reaction between tetraethyl orthosilicate and tetra-n-propyl ammonium hydroxide, and characterized using XRD, SEM, and ICP-OES. The Pt/silicalite-1 catalyst exhibited highly active for the hydrogenolysis of furfural into 1,5-pentadiol, with a high yield of 60% at room temperature for 12 h using NaBH4 as reducing agent. In addition, the catalyst can reuse five times without loss significantly catalytic activityen-US"Biomass energy sourcesCatalysts and CatalysisOrganic compoundsReducing agentNanoparticles"proceedings-article
