Selective palladium-loaded MIL-101 catalysts

Palladium nanoparticles (NPs) of different mean particle size have been synthesized in the host structure of the porous coordination polymer (or metal-organic framework: MOF) MIL-101. The metal-organic chemical vapor deposition method was used to load MIL-101 with the Pd precursor complex [(η(5)-C(5)H(5))Pd(η(3)-C(3)H(5))]. Loadings higher than 50 wt.% could be accomplished. Reduction of the Pd precursor complex with H(2) gave rise to Pd NPs inside the MIL-101 (Pd@MIL-101). The reduction conditions, especially the temperature, allows us to make size-conform (size of the Pd NPs correlates with the size of the cavities of the host structure of MIL-101) and undersized Pd NPs. The Pd@MIL-101 samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, Brauner-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, elemental analysis, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Catalytic studies, hydrogenation of ketones, were performed with selected Pd@MIL-101 catalysts. Activity, selectivity, and recyclability of the catalyst family are discussed.     

Palladium nanoparticles encapsulated in a metal-organic framework as efficient heterogeneous catalysts for direct C2 arylation of indoles

Highly dispersed palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) encapsulated in the mesoporous cages of the metal-organic framework (MOF) MIL-101(Cr) have been prepared by using the wetness impregnation method. The Pd NPs were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), N(2) adsorption, transmission electron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The particles size ((2.6±0.5) nm) of the obtained Pd NPs was in good agreement with the cage diameters (2.9 and 3.4 nm) of the MOF. The resulting Pd/MIL-101(Cr) catalyst exhibited extremely high catalytic activities in the direct C2 arylation of substituted indoles by using only 0.1 mol% of the Pd catalyst. Moreover, the catalyst is easily recoverable and can be reused several times without leaching into solution and loss of activity. The combination of the highly dispersible Pd NPs within the accessible mesoporous cages and the favorable adsorption of the aryl halides on MIL-101 are suspected to be the main reasons for the observed high activities of the Pd/MIL-101(Cr) catalyst in the direct C2 arylation of indoles.     

PdAg/MIL-101(Fe)催化NaBH4水解制氢

将PdAg纳米颗粒负载到MIL-101(Fe)上作为硼氢化钠水解制氢的催化剂。采用XRD、TEM、HRTEM、XPS、SEM和EDS等方法对催化剂PdAg/MIL-101(Fe)的结构进行了表征。PdAg/MIL-101(Fe)在硼氢化钠水解制氢中表现出较高的催化活性,在温和的条件下水解制氢最大速率为2.60 L·min^–1·g_cat.^–1。详细研究了反应温度、催化剂用量、氢氧化钠和硼氢化钠浓度对该催化反应的影响规律。结果发现,制氢速率很大程度上依赖于反应温度,随着反应温度的升高,制氢速率明显增加,制氢的表观活化能为54.89 kJ·mol^–1。该催化剂重用性能好,5次循环后仍能保持活性。

Matrices based on meso antibacterial framework

In this paper, the synthesis of three types of porous materials (PMs) (porous Fe₃O₄, MIL-101 metal-organic framework (MOF), and MCM-41 mesoporous silica) by hydrothermal method was performed. The incorporation of Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) was carried out after the synthesis reaction of supports in MCM-41 and MIL-101 MOF. Ag core@ porous Fe₃O₄ core–shell system was prepared via a one-pot hydrothermal method. Ag-MIL-101 was obtained using Urtica dioica leaf extract as the green solvent and reducing agent. The antibacterial activity of Ag-PM nanocomposites (NCs) was investigated on both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. The size of the silver NPs was determined to be 12 and 30 nm in MCM-41 and MIL-101 MOF, respectively. The diameter of Ag core in Ag@Fe₃O₄ shell was ~135 nm. The antibacterial activity of Ag-PMs was in the order Ag-MCM-41 > Ag-MIL-101 > Ag core@Fe₃O₄ shell. The loading percent of Ag NPs in MCM-41 (84%) was more than that in MIL-101 (53%) and Fe₃O₄ (31%). The release of Ag⁺ ions from Ag-MCM-41, Ag-MIL-101, and Ag@Fe₃O₄ NCs was 46, 2, and 1 ppm, respectively. The release of the Ag⁺ ions and, consequently, the antibacterial activity of NCs depend on the uniform distribution, particles size, and the absence of aggregation of Ag NPs in PMs.     

Synthesis of a hybrid MIL-101(Cr)/ZTC composite for hydrogen storage applications

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) hybrid composites have recently attracted considerable attention in hydrogen storage applications. In this study a hybrid composite of zeolite templated carbon (ZTC) and Cr-based MOF (MIL-101) was synthesised by adding the templated carbon in situ during the synthesis of MIL-101(Cr). The obtained sample was fully characterized and hydrogen adsorption measurements performed at 77 K up to 1 bar. The results showed that the surface areas and the hydrogen uptake capacities of individual MIL-101 (2552 m² g^?1, 1.91 wt%) and zeolite templated carbon (2577 m² g^?1, 2.39 wt%) could be enhanced when a hybrid MIL-101(Cr)/ZTC composite (2957 m² g^?1, 2.55 wt%) was synthesized. The procedure presents a simple way for enhancement of hydrogen uptake capacity of the individual Cr-MOF and templated carbon samples.     

Bimetallic Au-Pd NPs Embedded in MOF Ultrathin Nanosheets with Tuned Surface Electronic Properties for High-performance Benzyl Alcohol Oxidation

Bimetallic Au-Pd nanoparticles(NPs) with synergistic effect between Au and Pd atom have shown excellent catalytic activity toward benzyl alcohol oxidation. The catalytic activities of metal NPs supported within metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are affected by the electronic interactions between metal NPs and MOFs. Taking the advantages of ultrathin nanosheets, we confine the highly dispersed Au-Pd NPs within ultrathin nanosheets of MOF-Ni(NMOF-Ni) to fabricate Au_xPd_y@NMOF-Ni as catalysts. Under base-free and atmospheric pressure conditions, the as-prepared Au_xPd_y@NMOF-Ni catalysts exhibit superior activity and selectivity for benzyl alcohol oxidation. This work highlights the synergistic effects among different components in composite catalysts effectively improving the activity and offers a new way for designing efficient catalysts toward benzyl alcohol oxidation.

Ultrafine Pt nanoparticles were successfully immobilized inside the pores of a metal-organic framework, MIL-101, without aggregation of Pt nanoparticles on the external surfaces of framework by using a "double solvents" method. TEM and electron tomographic measurements clearly demonstrated the uniform three-dimensional distribution of the ultrafine Pt NPs throughout the interior cavities of MIL-101. The resulting Pt@MIL-101 composites represent the first highly active MOF-immobilized metal nanocatalysts for catalytic reactions in all three phases: liquid-phase ammonia borane hydrolysis, solid-phase ammonia borane thermal dehydrogenation, and gas-phase CO oxidation.

MIL-101(Cr)-NH2负载Pd低温催化糠醛高选择性加氢生成四氢糠醇

随着资源枯竭和环境污染严重问题的凸显,生物质转化的研究越来越多,特别是生物质催化裂解制备生物燃料及高附加值的化学品.糠醛是一种半纤维素酸解的产物,也是生产糠醇、四氢糠醇、2-甲基呋喃、环戊酮等的重要原料.其中四氢糠醇既可以用于生产其他高附加值化学品,也可以用作生物燃料或者燃料添加剂.虽然Pd/MFI,Ni/SiO2,Pd-Ir/SiO2等催化剂均可用于糠醛选择加氢制备四氢糠醇,但是反应通常在高温高压条件下进行.为此我们希望找到一种在温和条件下使用的高效催化剂.MOF多孔材料具有丰富的孔道结构、极高的比表面积、表面可修饰的特点,还可与其他客体发生相互作用,进而影响催化性能.因此本课题组合成了一种含有氨基的MOF材料MIL-101(Cr)-NH2,进一步利用表面氨基吸附Pd的氯酸盐前体,经还原直接制得负载型催化剂Pd@MIL-101(Cr)-NH2,并用于糠醛选择加氢反应.本文采用X射线粉末衍射(PXRD)、热重分析(TG)、N2物理吸附-脱附、透射电镜(TEM)等手段表征了所制的MOFs和催化剂.通过将MIL-101(Cr)-NH2和不同Pd@MIL-101(Cr)-NH2的XRD谱与标准谱图对比,发现MIL-101(Cr)-NH2已成功合成,并在催化剂制备过程中和反应之后仍然保持稳定.TG结果表明,所制备MIL-101(Cr)-NH2在低于350 ℃C时结构不会被破环.MIL-101(Cr)-NH2的比表面积可达到1669 m2g?1,孔容达1.35 cm3g?1,从而为Pd纳米粒子均匀分散在载体上提供了可能性.各Pd@MIL-101(Cr)-NH2样品的TEM照片我们看出,Pd纳米粒子可均匀分散在MIL-101(Cr)-NH2上,粒径为3?4 nm.对比实验表明,氨基与金属的相互作用有利于Pd纳米粒子分散均匀.将Pd@MIL-101(Cr)-NH2用于糠醛选择加氢反应时,在40 ℃C,2 MPa H2的温和条件下,反应6 h后糠醛完全转化为四氢糠醇其选择性接近100%.表现出比文献报导的更加优异的催化性能.这得益于高度均匀分散的Pd纳米粒子,以及催化剂载体与Pd纳米粒子的配位作用和π-π相互作用.结果还表明当高于80℃C反应时,即有副产物生成,进一步提高反应温度会促进环戊酮的生成.可见,Pd@MIL-101(Cr)-NH2所表现的低温高加氢活性对提高四氢糠醇选择性至关重要.

Highly catalytic spherical carbon nanocomposites allowing tunable activity via controllable Au-Pd doping

We report the synthesis of highly catalytic spherical carbon composite particles with Au-Pd bimetallic nanoparticle doping using a microwave-assisted technique that allows control over the location of the nanoparticles (NPs), putting them into stable interior, but still near-surface locations (within a 100 nm thick shell). First, composite particles with Pd NPs inside of nanoporous carbon spheres (CSs) were synthesized. Subsequent immersion of the composite particles in HAuCl(4) solutions containing PVP led to an addition of Au near the Pd. Au-Pd/CS composites with Au:Pd atomic ratios varying from 0.4 to 4.6 were prepared. The growth of Au and its location relative to the carbon's surface and the Pd are discussed. The catalytic activity towards the reduction of 4-nitrophenol is tunable via the Au:Pd atomic ratio. Optimizing the composition increases the activity a hundredfold over that of the corresponding monometallic Pd/CS. The catalytic activity arises from the synergy between different contributing mechanisms, here especially the interaction between the carbon matrix and metals, metal-metal interfaces, and the hydrogen absorption capabilities of Pd.     

Synthesis and gas sorption properties of halogen-doped mesoporous chromium(iii) terephthalate

Mesoporous chromium(iii) terephthalate MIL-101 was treated with aqueous solutions of sodium fluoride, chloride, and bromide. The properties of the resulting compounds to sorb nitrogen, hydrogen, and methane were studied. The methane sorption was shown to depend on the nature of the inserted halide ion. The treatment with a sodium chloride solution leads to an increase in the methane uptake by MIL-101.
