Dimethyl ether (DME), as a promising alternative to diesel fuel and liquefied petroleum gas, has attracted considerable attention in catalysis domain. The catalytic direct synthesis of DME from syngas is an up-and-coming route but remains a challenge. In this work, we firstly prepared a Cu-embedded porous Al₂O₃ bifunctional catalyst (Cu@Al₂O₃-dp) by filling Cu-1, 3, 5-benzenetricarboxylate metal-organic framework (Cu-BTC MOF) with Al(OH)₃ followed by a two-step calcination process (400 ℃ for 4 h and 600 ℃ for 1 h), exhibiting excellent catalytic performance for direct synthesis of DME from syngas. Cu@Al₂O₃-dp catalyst demonstrates much higher CO conversion (25.7% vs. 15.4%) and extremely higher DME selectivity (90.4% vs. 63.9%) with the increased catalytic stability compared to the supported Cu catalyst on MOF-derived porous Al₂O₃ (Cu/Al₂O₃) prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method, ascribed to the unique embedding-type structure, promoted Cu dispersion and stronger metal-support interaction. This work not only provides an efficient syngas-to-DME catalyst, but also paves a new way for designing highly-efficient core-shell bifunctional catalysts for diverse consecutive reactions.
