RT journal article T1 MOF-Triggered Synthesis of Subnanometer Ag02 Clusters and Fe3+ Single Atoms: Heterogenization Led to Efficient and Synergetic One-Pot Catalytic Reactions A1 Tiburcio, Estefanía A1 Zheng, Yongkun A1 Bilanin, Cristina A1 Hernández Garrido, Juan Carlos A1 Vidal Moya, Alejandro A1 Oliver-Meseguer, Judit A1 Martín, Nuria A1 Mon, Marta A1 Ferrando Soria, Jesús A1 Armentano, Donatella A1 Leyva-Pérez, Antonio A1 Pardo, Emilio A2 Ciencia de los Materiales e Ingeniería Metalúrgica y Química Inorgánica K1 Aromatic hydrocarbons K1 Catalysis K1 Catalyst activity K1 Hybrid materials K1 Organic polymers K1 Organometallics K1 Single crystals AB The combination of well-defined Fe3+ isolated single-metal atoms and Ag2 subnanometer metal clusters within the channels of a metal-organic framework (MOF) is reported and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction for the first time. The resulting hybrid material, with the formula [Ag02(Ag0)1.34FeIII0.66]@NaI2{NiII4[CuII2(Me3mpba)2]3}·63H2O (Fe3+Ag02@MOF), is capable of catalyzing the unprecedented direct conversion of styrene to phenylacetylene in one pot. In particular, Fe3+Ag02@MOF─which can easily be obtained in a gram scale─exhibits superior catalytic activity for the TEMPO-free oxidative cross-coupling of styrenes with phenyl sulfone to give vinyl sulfones in yields up to >99%, which are ultimately transformed, in situ, to the corresponding phenylacetylene product. The results presented here constitute a paradigmatic example of how the synthesis of different metal species in well-defined solid catalysts, combined with speciation of the true metal catalyst of an organic reaction in solution, allows the design of a new challenging reaction.
