Rh → Sb Interactions Supported by Tris(8-quinolyl)antimony Ligands

The study of ambiphilic systems combining L-type and Z-type ligands within the same construct has emerged as a field of active investigation, especially in the cases of ligands containing a group 13 element as a σ-acceptor for transition metals. (1) Parallel to these developments, several groups have investigated more atypical systems in which the Z-type ligand is a group 15 element. (2) Our contributions to this area have focused on the use of phosphinostibine ligands for the generation of transition metal complexes in which the antimony moiety acts as a Z-type ligand. (1d,3) We have shown that the magnitude of the resulting M → Sb interaction can be readily modulated by the oxidation state of the antimony atom (4) as well as its charge which can be manipulated by abstraction of anionic ligands. (5) Our work has also shown that these effects can be leveraged to enhance the catalytic properties of the transition metal center. (4,5) Some of the simplest systems that we have investigated are those resulting from the reaction of platinum dichloride with the bis- or tris-phosphinostibines ClSb(o-dppp) 2 and Sb(o-dppp) 3 , respectively (o-dppp = o-(Ph 2 P)C 6 H 4 ). These reactions proceed by oxidative insertion of the stibine into a Pt- Cl bond to produce complexes A and B, (6) respectively (Chart 1). Reasoning that the properties of these complexes may also be influenced by the nature of the L-type buttresses, we have now questioned whether stibines featuring nitrogen donor ligands could also display the redox noninnocence of their phosphine counterparts and support the formation of such complexes. Following up on some of our work with ambiphilic tellurium-quinoline ligands, (7) we now report on the reaction of tris-(8-quinolyl)stibines (8) toward (MeCN) 3 RhCl 3 .

Unveiling the Stability of Encapsulated Pt Catalysts Using Nanocrystals and Atomic Layer Deposition

Platinum exhibits desirable catalytic properties, but it is scarce and expensive. Optimizing its use in key applications such as emission control catalysis is important to reduce our reliance on such a rare element. Supported Pt nanoparticles (NPs) used in emission control systems deactivate over time because of particle growth in sintering processes. Here, in this work, we shed light on the stability against sintering of Pt NPs supported on and encapsulated in Al 2 O 3 using a combination of nanocrystal catalysts and atomic layer deposition (ALD) techniques. We find that small amounts of alumina overlayers created by ALD on preformed Pt NPs can stabilize supported Pt catalysts, significantly reducing deactivation caused by sintering, as previously observed by others. Combining theoretical and experimental insights, we correlate this behavior to the decreased propensity of oxidized Pt species to undergo Ostwald ripening phenomena because of the physical barrier imposed by the alumina overlayers. Furthermore, we find that highly stable catalysts can present an abundance of under-coordinated Pt sites after restructuring of both Pt particles and alumina overlayers at a high temperature (800 °C) in C 3 H 6 oxidation conditions. The enhanced stability significantly improves the Pt utilization efficiency after accelerated aging treatments, with encapsulated Pt catalysts reaching reaction rates more than two times greater than those of a control supported Pt catalyst.
