Dynamic Confinement Approach for High Metal Loading Single-Atom Catalysts Based on Covalent Organic Frameworks

Kyung Seob Song, Murad Najafov, José Manuel González Acosta, Andrea Ruiz Ferrando, Stephan Pollitt, Patrick W. Fritz, Timur Ashirov, Krzysztof Piech, Felipe Gándara, Maarten Nachtegaal, Núria López, Ali Coskun

Angewandte Chemie International Edition

We introduced a new synthetic strategy for the preparation of high metal loading crystalline single-atom catalysts based on covalent organic frameworks with atomically distributed Pd ions and metal contents of up to 22.2 wt%. Theoretical simulations reveal that the crystalline framework dynamically confines Pd atoms between different binding sites within the pores, ensuring long-term catalyst stability under practical conditions.
