Reductive amination of furfuryl alcohol, furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) were carried out on various metal catalysts. Over Raney Ni catalyst, we obtained the highest furfurylamine yields of 81.8 % and 94.0 % from furfuryl alcohol in absence and presence of H-2, respectively. While furfural was used as the substrate, 100 % yield of furfurylamine could be achieved over Raney Ni under rather moderate conditions. Although 5-HMF was completely converted over all catalysts used, the highest yield of 2,5-bisaminomethylfuran (60.7 %) was obtained over Raney Ni at 160 degrees C in 12 h. The DFT calculations on the adsorption behavior of NH3 and H-2 on different metal surfaces showed that the difference of the adsorption energy between NH3 and H-2 on Ni is lower than those of other metals, indicating that less metal active sites on Ni surface is occupied by NH3, which leaves more active sites for dehydrogenation/hydrogenation reactions and in the end promotes the reductive amination reactions.
