Abstract
![]()
Heterogeneous palladium catalysts modified by N-heterocyclic
carbenes
(NHCs) are shown to be highly effective toward the direct synthesis
of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), in the absence
of the promoters which are typically required to enhance both activity
and selectivity. Catalytic evaluation in a batch regime demonstrated
that through careful selection of the N-substituent of the NHC it
is possible to greatly enhance catalytic performance when compared
to the unmodified analogue and reach concentrations of H2O2 rivaling that obtained by state-of-the-art catalysts.
The enhanced performance of the modified catalyst, which is retained
upon reuse, is attributed to the ability of the NHC to electronically
modify Pd speciation.
