Linear-Structure Single-Atom Gold(I) Catalyst for Dehydrogenative Coupling of Organosilanes with Alcohols. ACS Catal 2023; 13:16067-16077. [PMID: 38125981 PMCID: PMC10729017 DOI: 10.1021/acscatal.3c03937] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
A strategy for the synthesis of a gold-based single-atom catalyst (SAC) via a one-step room temperature reduction of Au(III) salt and stabilization of Au(I) ions on nitrile-functionalized graphene (cyanographene; G-CN) is described. The graphene-supported G(CN)-Au catalyst exhibits a unique linear structure of the Au(I) active sites promoting a multistep mode of action in dehydrogenative coupling of organosilanes with alcohols under mild reaction conditions as proven by advanced XPS, XAFS, XANES, and EPR techniques along with DFT calculations. The linear structure being perfectly accessible toward the reactant molecules and the cyanographene-induced charge transfer resulting in the exclusive Au(I) valence state contribute to the superior efficiency of the emerging two-dimensional SAC. The developed G(CN)-Au SAC, despite its low metal loading (ca. 0.6 wt %), appear to be the most efficient catalyst for Si-H bond activation with a turnover frequency of up to 139,494 h-1 and high selectivities, significantly overcoming all reported homogeneous gold catalysts. Moreover, it can be easily prepared in a multigram batch scale, is recyclable, and works well toward more than 40 organosilanes. This work opens the door for applications of SACs with a linear structure of the active site for advanced catalytic applications.

Abstract
Recently, metal-ion-doped zeolitic imidazolate frameworks have gained considerable attention for their structure tailorability and potential catalytic applications. Herein, Cu ion-doped ZIF-8 nanocrystals were successfully prepared by the mechanical grinding of Cu(NO3)2, ZnO and 2-methylimidazole (HMeIM) using ethanol as an additive. In contrast to the general view that only Cu(ii) is present in Cu-doped ZIF-8, we found the coexistence of Cu(ii) and Cu(i) in this material, which was supported by XPS and X-ray induced Auger electron spectroscopy (XAES) characterizations. Moreover, ethanol might have acted as a reducer to induce the reduction of Cu(ii) during synthesis. Due to the mixed valency of Cu ions, the Cu ion-doped ZIF-8 nanocrystals showed excellent catalytic performance in the dehydrogenative coupling of silanes with alcohols.

Abstract
Herein, we successfully synthesized partially oxidized 5 nm cobalt nanoparticles dispersed on a single-layer nitrogen-doped graphene (SL-NG) (denoted as PO-5 nm Co/SL-NG) catalyst by a unique and simple one-pot synthesis strategy, which was efficiently applied for highly selective electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide to methanol in 0.1 mol dm-3 aqueous NaHCO3 medium under mild conditions, reaching the maximum faradaic efficiency (FE) of 71.4% for methanol at -0.90 V versus saturated calomel electrode (SCE), possessing a strong electrocatalytic current density of 4 mA cm-2 and a high yield of 1.10 mmol dm-3 h-1, and the corresponding overpotential is as low as 280 mV. Moreover, at -1.0 V versus SCE, a high current density of 10 mA cm-2 can be obtained, and the FE for methanol still remains 23.2%. Notably, the proposed catalyst exhibits prominent stability after 10 h electroreduction of CO2, and the morphology, particle size, structure, and element contents of the catalyst almost remain stable. This work first provides an advanced PO-5 nm Co/SL-NG for selective electroreduction of carbon dioxide into methanol, which simultaneously possesses the merits of high current density, low overpotential, high selectivity, superior FE, and good stability, outperforming most reported electrocatalysts.
