Abstract

CuPd bimetallic solvated metal atoms (SMA) synthesized by metal vapor synthesis (MVS) technique and supported on poly-4-vinylpyridine (PVPy) resin, showed significantly higher catalytic activity in Sonogashira-type carbon–carbon coupling reactions than the corresponding monometallic Cu and Pd systems as well as their physical mixture. The analysis of the bimetallic catalyst combining transmission electron microscopy techniques and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy revealed the presence of small Pd nanoparticles (dm=2.5 nm) while the analysis of the X-ray absorption data, at the Cu K-edge suggests the formation of thin and incomplete Cu oxide layers around the Pd-rich cores.
