摘要

It has been attracting attention for a long time that selective hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes to unsaturated alcohol is often selected as a representative reaction for the selective hydrogenation of C=O bond. However, it is still a great challenge to obtain the efficient catalysts with high activity and selectivity. In recent years, due to the unique properties of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) materials, they were focused on the field of hydrogenation by more and more researchers, which were often used as catalyst supports or directly as catalysts to improve the yields of unsaturated alcohols. Therefore, this paper reviews the latest progress and technical challenges of different MOFs and their derivatives in the selective hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes, and the properties of these materials are also discussed. In addition, the analysis of catalyst structure, catalytic performance and reaction mechanism was reviewed to provide research ideas for designing effective catalysts and achieving higher yields of unsaturated alcohols.
