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.

Modified metal-organic framework and catalyst for hydrogenation reaction including same

The present disclosure provides a preparing method for 5-alkoxymethylfurfural, including steps of (a) preparing fructose, (b) mixing the fructose, an organic acid catalyst, and an organic solvent, thereby preparing mixing solution, and (c) heating the mixing solution, thereby preparing 5-alkoxymethylfurfural. Therefore, 5-alkoxymethylfurfural may be effectively prepared without by-products from fructose.
