Abstract: | Palladium-catalyzed C-C coupling reactions are of significant importance, but they often require harsh conditions. Herein, we report an interface-regulated photocatalytic Suzuki coupling reaction over Pd nanoparticles supported on a metal-organic framework (MOF), ZIF-8. Two Pd/MOFs were synthesized, PdPVP/ZIF-8 and Pd/ZIF-8, which have similar Pd sizes and loading amounts, except that the former contains poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) as a surfactant. The diffuse-reflectance infrared Fourier transform of CO adsorption (CO-DRIFT) indicates that Pd/ZIF-8 represents a more negative electronic state of Pd than PdPVP/ZIF-8. In the photocatalytic Suzuki coupling reaction between iodobenzene and phenylboronic acid, Pd/ZIF-8 exhibits excellent performance (99.1% yield), much better than that of PdPVP/ZIF-8 (57.9% yield). Moreover, Pd/ZIF-8 is highly stable and shows broad substrate scope for this reaction. The superior activity of Pd/ZIF-8 can be attributed to sufficient electron transfer between the MOFs and Pd nanoparticles in the absence of an interfacial surfactant. This work provides new insights into a Pd-catalyzed C-C coupling reaction involving photocatalysis and interfacial electron transfer. |
