Surfactant-Free Palladium Nanoparticles Encapsulated in ZIF-8 Hollow Nanospheres for Size-Selective Catalysis in Liquid-Phase Solution

Encapsulation of surfactant-free Pd nanoparticles (NPs) in the metal–organic framework material ZIF-8 hollow nanospheres was achieved. Pd@ZIF-8 hollow nanospheres showed excellent size-selective catalytic properties in the liquid-phase hydrogenation of olefins. As a result of the uniform pore size of the ZIF-8 shell (apertures of 3.4 ?), the catalyst showed high activity for the hydrogenation of 1-hexene (1.9×8.2 ?) but very low activity for larger molecules such as cis-cyclooctene (5.3×5.5 ?), trans-stilbene (4.2×11.3 ?), and triphenylethylene (9.1×9.2 ?). Other surfactant-free noble-metal nanoparticles could also be employed to produce NPs@MOFs for catalysis.

A facile and versatile electro-reductive system for hydrodefunctionalization under ambient conditions

A general electrochemical system for reductive hydrodefunctionalization is described, employing the inexpensive and easily available triethylamine (Et3N) as a sacrificial reductant. This protocol is characterized by facile operation, sustainable conditions, and exceptionally wide substrate scope covering the cleavage of C-halogen, N-S, N-C, O-S, O-C, C-C and C-N bonds. Notably, the selectivity and capability of reduction can be conveniently switched by simple incorporation or removal of an alcohol as a co-solvent.
