The study found that small, alloyed PdGa nanoparticles prepared through surface organometallic chemistry exhibit high activity and selectivity in catalyzing the hydrogenation of CO2 to CH3OH, compared to silica-supported Pd nanoparticles. Alloying is observed in the material, with a dynamic dealloying/realloying process occurring through Ga redox.
The direct conversion of CO2 to CH3OH represents an appealing strategy for the mitigation of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Here, we report that small, narrowly distributed alloyed PdGa nanoparticles, prepared via surface organometallic chemistry from silica-supported Ga-III isolated sites, selectively catalyze the hydrogenation of CO2 to CH3OH. At 230 degrees C and 25 bar, high activity (22.3 mol(MeOH) mol(Pd)(-1) h(-1)) and selectivity for CH3OH/DME (81%) are observed, while the corresponding silica-supported Pd nanoparticles show low activity and selectivity. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), IR, NMR, and scanning transmission electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray provide evidence for alloying in the as-synthesized material. In situ XAS reveals that there is a dynamic dealloying/realloying process, through Ga redox, while operando diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy demonstrates that, while both methoxy and formate species are observed in reaction conditions, the relative concentrations are inversely proportional, as the chemical potential of the gas phase is modulated. High CH3OH selectivities, across a broad range of conversions, are observed, showing that CO formation is suppressed for this catalyst, in contrast to reported Pd catalysts.
