Two-dimensional N-doped Pd/carbon for highly efficient heterogeneous catalysis

A novel two-dimensional ZIF-derived Pd@CN material prepared via one-step calcination exhibits outstanding catalytic activity in heterogeneous hydrogenation. Its well-developed porous structure, low dimensions and low density make active sites more accessible. This facile and effective strategy can guide the synthesis of highly active and durable Pd@CN catalysts with specific morphologies.
