文摘The palladium(Pd)-catalyzed Suzuki reaction is widely applied in the pharmaceutical industry,where constructing highly active and low-cost Pd sites are impendent.Here,we report the fabrication of a heterogeneous Pd/Tio2 catalyst via engineering of an electronic structure of a single Pd_(1)atom on monolayered Ti_(0.87)O_(2)nanosheet(Pd_(1)-Ti_(0.87)O_(2)).This catalyst motivated the kinetically sluggish C-Br cleavage,thus boosting the Suzuki reaction at room temperature.Pd_(1)-Ti_(0.87)O_(2)exhibited an outstanding activity with turnover frequency(TOF)of 11,110 h-1,exceeding that of PdCl_(2)and Pd(OAc)_(2)catalysts by a factor of>200.Various in situ techniques were employed to investigate the C-Br activation process,which showed that Pd_(1)kinetic-feasibly dissociated the chemisorbed bromobenzene,especially the C-Br bond cleavage.Theoretical calculations further revealed that the improved activity is ascribed to the optimized charge state of Pd_(1)within the Pd_(1)O4 realm via charge transfer.
