It is of great significance to convert platform molecules and their derivatives into high value‐added alcohols, which have multitudinous applications. This study concerns systematic conversion of 2‐methyltetrahydrofuran (MTHF), which is obtained from furfural, into 1‐pentanol acetate (PA) and 1,4‐pentanediol acetate (PDA). Reaction parameters, such as the Lewis acid species, reaction temperature, and hydrogen pressure, were investigated in detail.1H NMR spectroscopy and reaction dynamics study were also conducted to help clarify the reaction mechanism. Results suggested that cleavage of the primary alcohol acetate was less facile than that of the secondary alcohol acetate, with the main product being PA. A PA yield of 91.8 % (150 °C, 3 MPa H2, 30 min) was achieved by using Pd/C and Sc(OTf)3as a cocatalytic system and an 82 % yield of PDA was achieved (150 °C, 30 min) by using Sc(OTf)3catalyst. Simultaneously, the efficient conversion of acetic esters into alcohols by simple saponification was carried out and led to a good yield.
