Transition Metals Trigger On-Surface Ullmann Coupling Reaction: Intermediate, Catalyst and Template
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this chapter, we report on our recent studies of on-surface Ullmann coupling reaction and focus on the roles of the transition metals in the reaction. First, we discuss an organometallic intermediate state, which separates the reaction into two steps. Next, we examine the catalytic efficiency of Cu, Au, Ag, Pt, and Pd in the reaction. We analyze the bond formation yields when the reaction takes place in the presence of these metals. In particular, we determine the rate constants and activation energy of Cuand Pd-catalyzed reaction. In the last part, we demonstrate a strategy of using metal coordination template to steer the reaction toward specific products.

Ullmann coupling mediated assembly of an electrically driven altitudinal molecular rotor.
Surface-bound molecular rotation can occur with the rotational axis either perpendicular (azimuthal) or parallel (altitudinal) to the surface. The majority of molecular rotor studies involve azimuthal rotors, whereas very few altitudinal rotors have been reported. In this work, altitudinal rotors are formed by means of coupling aryl halides through a surface-mediated Ullmann coupling reaction, ...

The Oxidative Coupling of Methane (OCM) over M-Na-Mn/SiO2 catalysts (M=W, Cr, Nb and V) was investigated using a continuous-flow quartz reactor at 775°C, 1 atm and 100 cm3min-1 gas flow rates, and correlated with the observed structure and redox properties.The interaction effects of the metal-metal and metal-support on the...
متن کاملCarbon catalyst derived from Himalayan pine for the C-N coupling of organic molecules leading to pyrrole formation
Carbon catalyst consisting of a hybrid structure made up of amorphous carbon and nanographite was prepared from the leaves of Pinus Roxburghii. The catalyst was prepared through sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid treatment of the dried pine leaves; and further functionalized with sulfuric acid treatment to incorporate the acidic functionalities. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by...
متن کاملAn ab initio insight into the Cu(111)-mediated Ullmann reaction.
The coupling process of phenyl radicals-the important intermediates in the prototypal Ullmann reaction-on Cu(111) is addressed using density functional theory. Consistent with experiments, we prove that the fragments interact attractively already at relatively large distances. An intermediate state involving a "popping-out" surface atom is reached through a non-trivial surface diffusion path. T...
