Effects of doping in 25-atom bimetallic nanocluster catalysts for carbon–carbon coupling reaction of iodoanisole and phenylacetylene

We here report the catalytic effects of foreign atoms (Cu, Ag, and Pt) doped into well-defined 25-gold-atom nanoclusters. Using the carbon-carbon coupling reaction of p-iodoanisole and phenylacetylene as a model reaction, the gold-based bimetallic MxAu25−x(SR)18 (–SR=–SCH2CH2Ph) nanoclusters (suppor...
