In this context, mechanochemistry is receiving increasing attention for the synthesis of many chemical
compounds in the solid state, considered by IUPAC as one of the 10 methodologies to change the
world.Mechanochemistry is the part of chemistry that uses mechanical energy for the transformation of matter.
This methodology will be used to study the effect caused by mechanochemistry in the precursor (Mg(OH)2),
which is activated at 450 º C to obtain the active phase (MgO). This phase displays Lewis basic sites, which
catalyzes the hydrogenation reaction of furfural to furfuryl alcohol. This catalyst will be used in the reduction of
furfural to furfuryl alcohol (FFA) using isopropanol as hydrogen donor agent and dissolution medium.
