Unsaturated　furanic　aldehydes　are　derived　from　lignocellulosic　biomass　resources　and　subsequently　used　to　produce　valuable　chemicals.　However,　the　highly　efficient,　selective　hydrogenation　of　the　biomass-derived　unsaturated　furan　C--O　bond　remains　challenging.　Here　we　report　that　graphene-like　nitrogen　doped　porous　carbon　(GNPC)　nanosheets　are　synthesized　from　carbon-rich,　sustainable,　and　renewable　biomass　precursors　(glucose,　fructose　and　5-hydroxymethylfurfural,　HMF)　with　high　surface　areas,　large　pore　volumes　and　narrow　mesopores.　GNPC　derived　from　HMF　is　an　excellent　catalyst　support　for　PtCo　nanoparticles　with　ultrafine　nanoparticles　size　and　homogeneous　distributions.　This　catalyst　is　highly　efficient　for　hydrogenation　of　biomassderived　furan-based　unsaturated　aldehydes,　with　high　yields,　to　the　corresponding　unsaturated　alcohols　under　mild　conditions.　This　design　strategy　should　further　allow　the　development　of　selective,　simple,　green　heterogeneous　catalysts　for　challenging　chemical　transformations.
