Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a metal-organic framework modified using a compound having a hydroxyl group (—OH), a catalyst for a hydrogenation reaction including the same, and a method of manufacturing the same. The catalyst according to the present disclosure has high activity to the hydrogenation reaction even at a low temperature of 30 to 40° C., thus making low-grade waste heat usable.
Claims10
A catalyst for a transfer hydrogenation reaction, comprising:
- a metal-organic framework modified with one or more selected from among methanol, ethanol, and propanol,
- wherein the metal-organic framework has a metal node coordination number 8 or less, and
- wherein the catalyst is modified by a method comprising:
- immersing the metal-organic framework in one or more alcohols selected from among methanol, ethanol, and propanol to manufacture a mixture;
- performing refluxing while heating the mixture to or above a boiling point of the one or more alcohols selected from among methanol, ethanol, and propanol;
- and
- filtering, washing, and drying the modified metal-organic framework after the refluxing.
