Construction of CuII Defects on CuCl Nanoparticles in Metal–Organic Frameworks toward Composite Catalysts with Superior Activity
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) represent an ideal platform for the construction of highly active composite catalysts. However, loading metastable and/or multicomponent metal compounds into MOFs remains a synthetic bottleneck due to the great challenge of keeping the guest and matrix intact during the preparation of a composite. In this work, we develop a new impregnation reduction surface modification (IRSM) strategy to give a new composite catalyst CuCl@MIL-101(Cr), which is successfully postmodified by in situ construction of CuII defects on the surface of loaded CuCl inside MOF pores, leading to the new composite material CuII/CuI@MIL-101(Cr). The new dual-component composite catalyst exhibits a hierarchical structure and superior catalytic activity in C–C homocoupling of arylboronic acids under green conditions. This study presents a facile strategy for improving the catalytic activity by constructing defects on the surface of MOF-based catalysts as well as for forming multiple-component composite materials.
