Bimetallic Intersection in PdFe@FeO x ‐C Nanomaterial for Enhanced Water Splitting Electrocatalysis
Supported Fe-doped Pd-nanoparticles (NPs) are prepared via soft transformation of a PdFe-metal oraganic framework (MOF). The thus synthesized bimetallic PdFe-NPs are supported on FeO@C layers, which are essential for developing well-defined and distributed small NPs, 2.3 nm with 35% metal loading. They are used as bifunctional nanocatalysts for the electrocatalytic water splitting process. They display superior mass activity for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), both in alkaline and acid media, compared with those obtained for benchmarking platinum HER catalyst, and ruthenium, and iridium oxide OER catalysts. PdFe-NPs also exhibit outstanding sta…
Heterometallic palladium-iron metal-organic framework as a highly active catalyst for cross-coupling reactions.
Palladium-based metal-organic frameworks (Pd-MOFs) are an emerging class of heterogeneous catalysts extremely challenging to achieve due to the facile leaching of palladium and its tendency to be reduced. Herein, Pd(II) was successfully incorporated in the framework of a MOF denoted as MUV-22 using a solvent assisted reaction. This stable MOF, with square-octahedron (soc) topology as MIL-127, and a porosity of 710 m2 g−1, is highly active, selective, and recyclable for the Suzuki-Miyaura allylation of aryl and alkyl boronates as exemplified with the coupling between cinnamyl bromide and Me-Bpin, a typically reluctant reagent in cross-coupling reactions.
