Atomically Dispersed Cu Catalyst for Efficient Chemoselective Hydrogenation Reaction

Hu Liu et al.

Summary: The researchers have developed a new strategy to incorporate single atom Cu sites into melem ring, resulting in Cu-1/CN catalyst with high selectivity, activity, and stability for selective hydrogenation of 4-nitrostyrene. The presence of hydroxymethyl from trimethylolmelamine is found to be beneficial for atomically dispersing Cu atoms in CN, contributing to the optimal chemical environment for efficient hydrogenation reaction. X-ray absorption fine structure tests indicate that the Cu atom of Cu-1/CN is dominated by quaternary coordination way in the melem ring of CN.
