Abstract:
This study successfully encapsulated palladium nanoparticles within the metal-organic framework material UiO-66 using a straightforward method. Utilizing a microwave-assisted process, the pores of UiO-66 were activated, and the metal precursors were simultaneously reduced in the presence of a reducing agent. The morphological and physicochemical properties of the resulting material were thoroughly analyzed using various techniques, including EDX, SEM, XRD, TGA, BET, and ICP-OES. UiO-66-NH2-Pd demonstrated highly efficient catalytic activity in C-O cross-coupling reactions under mild conditions. Moreover, this nanostructured material offers notable advantages, such as high reaction efficiency, a simple preparation process, and environmentally friendly characteristics. The catalyst was easily recovered via centrifugation and recycled five times without significant palladium leaching or any substantial loss in activity.

The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...

Metals like palladium, platinum, and nickel are commonly used in their solid forms — fine powder on an inert surface. As these catalysts remain insoluble in the reaction mixture, they are referred to as heterogeneous catalysts.

02:24Reduction of Alkynes to cis-Alkenes: Catalytic Hydrogenation
Like alkenes, alkynes can be reduced to alkanes in the presence of transition metal catalysts such as Pt, Pd, or Ni. The reaction involves two sequential syn additions of hydrogen via a cis-alkene intermediate.
02:47Alkynes to Aldehydes and Ketones: Hydroboration-Oxidation
One of the convenient methods for the preparation of aldehydes and ketones is via hydration of alkynes. Hydroboration-oxidation of alkynes is an indirect hydration reaction in which an alkyne is treated with borane followed by oxidation with alkaline peroxide to form an enol that rapidly converts into an aldehyde or a ketone. Terminal alkynes form aldehydes, whereas internal alkynes give ketones as the final product.
