Continuous hydrogenation of dimethyl maleate (DMM) toγ-butyrolactone (GBL), 1,4-butanediol (BDO) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) is a promising process in industry. In this study, Cu-M/SiO2 catalysts modified by basic promoters (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, La) were prepared, and characterized by physical adsorption of N2, in situ XRD, H2-TPR, CO2-TPD. With the addition of basic promoters, the basicity of Cu-M/SiO2 catalysts was improved. The particle size of CuO on Cu-M/SiO2 catalyst was increased after modified by Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba. However, the CuO particle was decreased on the Cu-La/SiO2 catalyst. The series of Cu-M/SiO2 catalyst was applied to the hydrogenation of DMM. The addition of basic promoters increased the selectivity of GBL during the hydrogenation for the basic promoters improved the dehydrogenation of BDO to GBL in alkaline sites. Furthermore, Cu-La/SiO2 presented a higher activity in the hydrogenation of DMM, due to its higher dispersion of Cu.
