The method from furfural on two catalysts in the filling up floor which is structured of producing methyl tetrahydrofuran at one stage

摘要

The present invention provides a process for preparing 2-methyltetrahydrofuran by one-stage hydrogenation of furfural with a hydrogen-comprising gas in the presence of a structured bed of at least one copper catalyst and at least one catalyst which comprises at least one noble metal from groups 8, 9 and/or 10 of the periodic table of the elements applied on a support material.
