Dioxin-Linked Covalent Organic Framework-Supported Palladium Complex for Rapid Room-Temperature Suzuki–Miyaura Coupling Reaction

Covalent organic framework (COF)-supported palladium catalysts have garnered enormous attention for cross-coupling reactions. However, the limited linkage types in COF hosts and their suboptimal catalytic performance have hindered their widespread implementation. Herein, we present the first study immobilizing palladium acetate onto a dioxin-linked COF (Pd/COF-318) through a facile solution impregnation approach. By virtue of its permanent porosity, accessible Pd sites arranged in periodic skeletons, and framework robustness, the resultant Pd/COF-318 exhibits exceptionally high activity and broad substrate scope for the Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction between aryl bromides and arylboronic acids at room temperature within an hour, rendering it among the most effective Pd/COF catalysts for Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions to date. Moreover, Pd/COF-318 demonstrates excellent recyclability, retaining high activity over five cycles without significant deactivation. The leaching test confirms the heterogeneity of the catalyst. This work uncovers the vast potential of dioxin-linked COFs as catalyst supports for highly active, selective, and durable organometallic catalysis.

Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Study of Pd Nucleation on a γ-Al 2 O 3 Surface

We perform ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) free energy simulations to investigate the stability and dynamics of dispersed Pd atoms and subnanometer clusters on γ-Al 2 O 3 . We consider nucleation for varying Pd loadings on dry γ-Al 2 O 3 (100), dry γ-Al 2 O 3 (110) and wet γ-Al 2 O 3 (110) and examine temperature, entropy and water coverage effects on the stability and dynamics of Pd clusters. At low Pd loading (1.07 Pd atoms/nm 2 on the (100) and 0.75 Pd/nm 2 on the (110)), association of the Pd atoms is thermodynamically unfavorable on the dry surfaces and almost thermoneutral on the wet (110) owing to water blocking of the AlIII defect sites. In agreement with past studies, the Pd atoms are quite mobile but the diffusion free energy barriers do not increase with the water coverage, as previously suggested, but rather remain similar in magnitude owing to translational entropy at finite temperatures. At these Pd loadings, oxidized Pd(II) atoms on the wet (110) surface are dispersed and immobile. At higher Pd loading (1.12 and 1.5 Pd atoms/nm 2 ) on the (110) surface, Pd 3 and Pd 4 clusters are thermodynamically very stable and form fast. At the 1.12 Pd atoms/nm 2 loading, the formation of the Pd 3 cluster is two orders of magnitude slower when the surface is hydroxylated as the system becomes somewhat trapped before the dinuclear cluster Pd 2 collides with a Pd atom.
