Abstract

This report describes a facile strategy that has the capability of adjusting different surface hydrophilicities/hydrophobicities of catalysts by covering metal–organic frameworks with graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide. The catalysts exhibit remarkable catalytic selective performance for the hydrogenation of different hydrophobic and hydrophilic reactants.
