DI-NITROGEN LIGANDS FOR SUPPORTED COORDINATED PLATINUM HYDROSILYLATION CATALYSTS CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No.63/017,962 filed on April 30, 2020, the disclosure of which is expressly incorporated herein. FIELD OF THE INVENTION [002] The invention relates generally to metal catalysts such as Pt single-site centers on metal oxide supports, e.g., powdered supports, such as MgO, Al ₂ O ₃ , CeO ₂ or mixtures thereof with di-nitrogen containing ligands. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [003] Hydrosilylation, the addition of a Si−H bond to a multiple bond (particularly C=C, Scheme 1), has been of significant importance in silicon chemistry since its first report in 1947. ¹ It serves as a versatile tool to produce various functionalized silicon-based polymers, ^2-10 which have observed wide applications as lubricant oils ¹¹ and as coating, ^12-14 preceramic, ^15-16 adhesive, ^17-18 and sealing materials. ^19- 20 Hydrosilylation also offers solutions to silicone curing ^{12, 21} and Si−C bond building in fine chemical synthesis. ^22-25 Industrial hydrosilylation catalysts have long been dominated by homogeneous Pt complexes due to their superior activity over other metals. ^26-34 Speier catalyst, H ₂ PtCl ₆ / ⁱ Pr−OH, ³⁵ prevailed for decades before being replaced by the more active and selective Karstedt catalyst, a vinyl-siloxane Pt ⁰ complex developed in 1970s. ³⁶ One significant drawback of Karstedt catalyst is the formation of colloidal Pt, which deactivates the catalyst and reduces product quality. ^{12, 37-41} The problem is further underscored by the high cost, volatile market, and uncertain future supply of Pt. Besides the Pt aggregation problem, side reactions of C=C isomerization and hydrogenation (Scheme 1) are difficult to avoid, and some important functional groups, such as epoxy, ^42-43 are unstable under reaction conditions. Consequently, there is ongoing research effort to develop Pt hydrosilylation catalysts with improved selectivity and stability. Examples of recent progress include Pt-carbene complexes, ^42-46 trinuclear alkyne Pt ⁰ complexes, ⁴⁷ and anti-sulfur-poisoning Pt catalysts. ⁴⁸ Heterogeneous Pt catalysts, such as Pt nanoparticles, ^37-39 PtO ₂ , ⁴⁹ and supported Pt single-atoms, ^50-52 have also inspired interest because they can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and recycled. Scheme 1. General reaction scheme of hydrosilylation and common byproducts from alkene. [004] Therefore, a need exists for catalysts and processes that overcome one or more of the current disadvantages noted above. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [005] The quest has long existed for next-generation catalysts that combine the easy recovery of heterogeneous catalysts with the high metal utilization efficiency and selectivity of homogeneous catalysts. This has sparked growing interest in immobilized organometallic catalysts ^53-56 and single-atom catalysts (SACs). ^57-70 Both groups of catalysts fulfill the purpose of isolating single metal atoms on solid supports. The former offers higher metal loading and tunability, while the latter provides direct metal-support interaction, which is often crucial in catalysis. To combine desirable characters from both, a metal-ligand self-assembly strategy was developed, first on single crystal surfaces in UHV ^71-76 and then adapted to various high-surface-area oxide supports under ambient conditions ^77-78 to create high-loading of ligand-stabilized and tunable noble metal sites with direct contact with the support. It was demonstrated that Pt stabilized by 3,6-di-2- pyridyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine (DPTZ, Figure 1a) on CeO ₂ and MgO powders are atomically dispersed as Pt ²⁺ , ⁷⁷ and are much more active than supported Pt aggregates and existing Pt SACs for alkene hydrosilylation. ^{50-51, 78} Compared with the Karstedt catalyst, they improve selectivity, reduce Pt aggregation, and suppress the decomposition of epoxy groups. ^77-78 Despite desired catalytic properties, Pt active sites on these catalysts partially leach into the solution during catalysis, limiting their recyclability and, hence, practical applications. [006] Therefore, a series of bifunctional bidentate N-based ligands (Figures 1b- e), aiming to create supported Pt-ligand hydrosilylation catalysts with improved active site recyclability were introduced. Three approaches are discussed: replacing DPTZ with a different ligand, mixing DPTZ with another ligand, and pre-depositing an additional ligand as the “anchoring ligand.” The resulting Pt catalysts are evaluated with a model hydrosilylation reaction between 1-octene and dimethoxymethyl silane. All three approaches are promising to mitigate the active site leaching problem, and present two catalysts with excellent reusability through multiple reaction cycles. Post-reaction characterization sheds light on the nature of active sites on these two catalysts. This work not only significantly improves the application potential of supported Pt-ligand hydrosilylation catalysts, it also expands the tool box for the synthesis of highly- dispersed noble metal catalysts on oxide supports. [007] While multiple embodiments are disclosed, still other embodiments of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description. As will be apparent, the invention is capable of modifications in various obvious aspects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the detailed descriptions are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not restrictive.

[019] Figure 12 depicts XP spectra of anchoring-ligand-modified oxide supports in N 1s region. Each spectrum is labeled as “anchoring ligand, support”. On modified CeO ₂ , N 1s peaks are large, suggesting high coverages of ligands. In comparison, on modified MgO, N 1s peaks are so small that it can barely be distinguished from background noises, indicating much lower coverages.

[050] The invention will be further described with reference to the following non-limiting Examples. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many changes can be made in the embodiments described without departing from the scope of the present invention. Thus the scope of the present invention should not be limited to the embodiments described in this application, but only by embodiments described by the language of the claims and the equivalents of those embodiments. Unless otherwise indicated, all percentages are by weight. [051] Examples [052] Synthesis of Pt-ligand/CeO ₂ with single bidentate N-based ligand. For Pt-BPhen/CeO ₂ : 0.0153 g (0.046 mol) BPhen (Sigma Aldrich, 97%) were dissolved in 25 mL 1-butanol by stirring for 20 min at room temperature.0.3 g CeO ₂ (BET surface area: 4.8 m ² /g) were added to the BPhen solution and the mixture was then stirred for 2 h at room temperature. 0.0080 g H ₂ PtCl ₆ · 6H ₂ O (Alfa Aesar, 99.95 % metal basis, 0.015 mol, 1 wt % by Pt with respect to total catalyst mass; 3 eq. BPhen with Pt) were dissolved in 5 mL 1-butanol. The Pt salt solution was then added to the CeO ₂ /BPhen/1- butanol mixture dropwise under stirring within 30 min. The mixture was covered and stirred for 24 h, then dried at room temperature under dry air flow overnight. The dried catalyst was washed with water, then dichloromethane (DCM) until all free BPhen were removed. [053] For Pt-C9BP/CeO ₂ and Pt-4,4’-BPDCA/CeO ₂ : the same procedure was followed, except that BPhen was replaced by C9BP (Alfa Aesar, 97%) or 4,4’-BPDCA (Alfa Aesar, 98%) and H ₂ O was used instead of 1-butanol as the solvent in the case of 4,4’-BPDCA due to ligand solubility. All Pt-ligand catalysts are light-yellow powders. [054] Synthesis of Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ . The synthesis of Pt- BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ follows a similar procedure as Pt-BPhen/CeO ₂ with the following changes: 2/3 of BPhen (0.031 mol out of 0.046 mol) were replaced by DPTZ (Sigma Aldrich, 96%) for a 1:2 BPhen:DPTZ molar ratio. Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ catalyst is a light-yellow powder. [055] Synthesis of supported Pt-DPTZ catalysts with anchoring-ligand- modified oxides. In the first step, 0.07 mmol anchoring ligand was impregnated onto 0.5 g CeO ₂ or MgO (BET surface area: 5.1 m ² /g) in a solvent (H ₂ O for PDO and DCM for 4,4’-BPDCA), using a method from a previous report. ⁷⁹ The anchoring-ligand-modified support was then washed with the corresponding solvent to remove free anchoring ligand and dried at 60 °C overnight. In the second step, Pt-DPTZ catalysts were synthesized following a similar procedure with Pt-BPhen/CeO ₂ , with the following changes: BPhen were replaced by DPTZ, and pristine CeO ₂ were replaced by anchoring-ligand-modified CeO ₂ or MgO. [056] General procedures for alkene hydrosilylation reactions. [057] For the 70 °C, 30 min reactions: 30 mg supported Pt catalysts were weighed and kept in an empty reaction tube with cap. 5 mmol dimethoxymethylsilane (Alfa Aesar, > 97 %) and 6 mmol 1-octene (Alfa Aesar, > 97 %) were weighed into another reaction tube, and 3 mL toluene (Macron, ACS grade) was added to the same tube. For the 60 °C, 20 min reactions, the amount of all chemicals was reduced to half. Both tubes were pre-heated in a water bath at the reaction temperature for 10 min, before reactants and solvent were added into the tube with Pt catalysts. The tube was capped during the reaction to avoid evaporation of silane (low boiling point). After the reaction, the tube was cooled down quickly with cold water flow, the solid catalysts were centrifuged out for reuse or post-reaction characterization, and the liquid mixture was diluted to 25 mL for GC-MS measurements with an Agilent 6890N Gas Chromatograph and 5973 Inert Mass Selective Detector. Product yield was calculated from its response intensity at m/z = 203.2 with respect to the response of internal standard decane (Sigma Aldrich, > 99 %, ~ 0.15 g added to all standard and post-reaction solutions) at m/z = 142.2 using calibration curves pre-made with standard solutions. The product used to make standard solutions was purchased from Sigma Aldrich ( 95.0%). The calibration curve exhibits an almost-perfect linear relationship between normalized GC-MS response and concentration over the concentration range relevant to the experiments reported here. For all samples measured, the GC-MS response from decane is within 20 % of standard solutions used in the calibration curves. Epoxy-containing alkene substrate hydrosilylation reactions occurred under 80 °C, 100 min conditions with 50 mg supported Pt catalyst weighed and kept in an empty reaction tube. 2.5 mmol trimethoxysilane (Sigma Aldrich, 95 %) and 3 mmol 4-vinyl-1-cyclohexene 1,2-epoxide isomers (Sigma Aldrich, 98 %) were weighed into another reaction tube, and 1.5 mL toluene (Macron, ACS grade) was added to the same tube. [058] Characterization of supported coordinated Pt catalysts. [059] X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements were performed with a PHI Versaprobe II XP spectrometer using a monochromated Al X-ray source. A small amount of each powder sample was fixed onto a platen with double-sided tape. For CeO ₂ -supported samples, XPS were collected at Pt 4f, N 1s, C 1s, Cl 2p, Ce 3d, and O 1s regions. For MgO-supported samples, the Ce 3d region was replaced by the Mg 2p region. A neutralizer was used to alleviate surface charging. The binding energy was corrected by calibration with the adventitious C 1s peak (284.8 eV). Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) measurements were performed with an Agilent 7700 quadrupole ICP-MS instrument. Solid catalysts were treated with aqua regia to dissolve all Pt before measurement. For solution samples, the solvent was evaporated first and then the residue was treated with aqua regia. [060] Results and discussions [061] 1. Supported coordinated Pt catalysts with single bidentate N-based ligand [062] Oxide-supported Pt-DPTZ catalysts were previously prepared. Extensive characterization showed that Pt exist predominantly as isolated atoms stabilized by favorable Pt-DPTZ coordination, with direct contact with oxide supports. Therefore, these catalysts have been categorized as single-atom catalysts (SACs). ^77-78 The SACs exhibit improvements over the commercial hydrosilylation catalyst (Karstedt catalyst) in selectivity, stability, and substrate scope. Nevertheless, their applications are challenged by low reusability due to active site leaching into solution during reaction. It was established that Pt-DPTZ coordination through the bidentate N binding pockets (Figure 1a) is stable, but the binding between Pt-DPTZ complexes and supports is not. ⁷⁸ Consequently, efforts first replaced DPTZ with one of the following bifunctional bidentate N-based ligands: bathophenanthroline (BPhen), 4,4’-dinonyl-2,2′-dipyridyl (C9BP), or 2,2′-bipyridine-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid (4,4’-BPDCA) (structures shown as Figure 1b-d). Besides a bidentate N pocket, each ligand has additional functional groups for improved interaction with the oxide supports. Not to be limited by theory, the replacement enhances the interaction between the Pt-ligand complex and the support to create active hydrosilylation catalysts with improved active site recyclability. [063] Supported Pt-ligand catalysts were synthesized using the one-step impregnation method reported previously ⁷⁷ and discussed above (see experimental section). CeO ₂ was chosen as the support because, in previous studies, it was found higher catalytic activity and reusability with CeO ₂ than with other oxide supports. ^77-78 Synthesis solvent was varied to ensure simultaneous dissolution of H ₂ PtCl ₆ ∙ 6H ₂ O and the ligand (Table 1). 1 wt% Pt was added and the actual Pt loading, determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), was found to be in the range of 0.16 – 0.41 wt% (Table 1). On all fresh catalysts, the binding energy (BE) of Pt 4f _7/2 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) peak is consistent with Pt ²⁺ (~72.8 eV, Table 1 and Figure 2). Figure 2 also shows that Pt 4f XP spectra on most catalysts can be described with a single Pt ²⁺ component of similar FWHM (full width at half maximum) (~2.1 eV), except for Pt-BPhen/CeO ₂ , on which the wide, asymmetric peak requires an additional Pt ⁴⁺ component for appropriate fitting. Therefore, most Pt exist as dispersed Pt ²⁺ cations and metallic Pt nanoparticles are not present. This is expected because the bidentate N pockets are suitable for Pt coordination and have sufficient oxidizing potential to stabilize dispersed single-atom Pt ²⁺ on CeO ₂ , as demonstrated previously. ^77- 78 On all catalysts, N (from ligands) and Cl (from H ₂ PtCl ₆ ∙ 6H ₂ O) are identified by XPS (Figures 3 and 4). N:Pt and Cl:Pt ratios are calculated from XPS peak areas and summarized in Table 1. The sum of the two ratios is at least 3, indicating Pt are highly coordinated with N and Cl. Pt atoms also coordinate with O from CeO ₂ to stay on the support. The high coordination is consistent with the argument that Pt aggregates are not formed to a significant degree. In summary, XPS indicates that on these catalysts, Pt bind with ligands, Cl, and O from CeO ₂ , forming highly dispersed Pt ²⁺ sites. It was noted that these XPS results are consistent with previous studies of Pt-DPTZ SACs, ⁷⁷ for which EXAFS and STEM analysis supported a single-atom character of the metal sites, which implies that atomic dispersion is likely on the other catalysts reported here. However, due to a lack of comprehensive characterization, these are referred to as ligand- coordinated supported catalysts (LCSCs), rather than SACs. [064] Table 1. Synthesis and characterization of fresh CeO ₂ -supported Pt-ligand catalysts for a series of ligands. Pt loading is calculated as wt % from ICP-MS. From XPS analysis, Pt 4f _7/2 binding energy (BE) was measured and molar ratios of N:Pt and Cl:Pt, calculated from peak area ratios, corrected for sensitivity factors. [a] Data on Pt-DPTZ/CeO ₂ were previously published in reference ⁷⁸ . [b] The catalyst was synthesized using a mixture of BPhen and DPTZ (1:2 molar ratio). [c] 4,4’-BPDCA was heated with water (to approximately 60 °C) to increase its solubility. The heat was turned off before adding Pt solution. [065] The Pt LCSCs were tested for a model hydrosilylation reaction between 1-octene (1) and dimethoxymethylsilane (2) (Scheme 2), under two conditions: 70 °C for 30 min and 60 °C for 20 min. The former is the “standard condition” to evaluate active site recyclability. The latter is for TON (turn over number) calculations and activity comparison, as it keeps the conversion of 2 far below 100%. Toluene was selected as the solvent for the reaction. All catalysts, except Pt-4,4’-BPDCA/CeO ₂ , exhibit catalytic activity under both conditions, yielding the anti-Markovnikov addition product 3. Similar with most hydrosilylation catalysts, alkene isomerization and hydrogenation are unavoidable. Therefore, all reactions were performed with 1.2 eq. 1. The most concentrated by-products from 2 are silane oligomers 4 and 5, the concentration of which is very low compared with 3. In addition, no Markovnikov addition product is observed, suggesting the catalysts are highly selective. The conversion of 2 is difficult to quantify precisely due to its volatility, so the yield of 3 was used to quantify catalytic activity. [066] Activity of all fresh catalysts at 70 °C, TON at 60 °C in the first 20 min, as well as total Pt recovery percentage (calculated from XPS Pt:Ce ratio) after 1 reaction cycle are reported in Table 2. Both catalytic activity and Pt recyclability vary significantly with the choice of ligand, highlighting one unique advantage of the metal- ligand strategy for supported SACs: metal sites can be tuned by changing the ligand, as in organometallic complexes in homogeneous catalysts. [067] Scheme 2. Hydrosilylation reaction between 1-octene (1) and dimethoxymethylsilane (2) used to test supported coordinated Pt catalysts, as well as structures of the two most important Si-containing by-products.

[068] Table 2. Activity and total Pt recovery (by XPS) of Pt LCSCs. [a] Reaction condition: T = 70 °C, t = 30 min, 30 mg catalyst, 6 mmol 1, 5 mmol 2, and 3 mL toluene. [b] XPS Pt recovery was calculated based on Pt:Ce ratio compared with the fresh catalyst. [c] Reaction condition: T = 60 °C, t = 20 min, 15 mg catalyst, 3 mmol 1, 2.5 mmol 2, and 1.5 mL toluene. [d] Complete conversion of 2 was achieved in this reaction. [069] 2. Enhancing recyclability of Pt-DPTZ/CeO ₂ by combination with another ligand [070] An effort to improve active site recyclability of Pt-DPTZ SACs by mixing DPTZ with another ligand was undertaken. The mixing ligand should be soluble in 1- butanol, the only solvent found to dissolve DPTZ and H ₂ PtCl ₆ · 6H ₂ O simultaneously. BPhen was chosen over C9BP for this study because when used alone, BPhen stabilizes Pt better than C9BP according to Table 2. This is potentially due to the benzene rings on BPhen offering stronger van der Waals interaction with CeO ₂ than alkyl chains on C9BP. Besides, the phenanthroline ring on BPhen is more rigid than the bi-pyridyl ring on C9BP, possibly providing a more favorable pocket for Pt binding. The synthesis procedure was adapted from the original Pt-DPTZ/CeO ₂ recipe, ⁷⁷ with a fraction of DPTZ replaced by BPhen. Two BPhen:DPTZ molar ratios: 2:1 and 1:2 were tested. The former does not create active hydrosilylation catalyst, so focus was on the latter, referred as Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ . [071] Pt-Bphen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ exhibits significantly improved reusability over Pt-DPTZ/CeO ₂ , as it only shows minimal activity drop in the first three cycles (81% yield to 73%, Figure 5), while the product yield decreases quickly on Pt-DPTZ/CeO ₂ once the conversion of 2 drops below 100%, due to active site leaching. ⁷⁸ Pt recovery percentage after the first cycle is improved as well (86% compared with 62%, Table 2). It was recognized that Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ was not as active as Pt-DPTZ/CeO ₂ (lower yield and TON per Pt under identical reaction conditions), but the difference is within a factor of three. In practice, one can compensate for lower activity by using more catalyst, but active site leaching is more challenging, especially for expensive noble metals. Therefore, from a practical perspective, significantly enhanced reusability is more valuable. For the hydrosilylation of epoxy-containing alkene (the reaction in Scheme 3), Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ shows similar selectivity (63%) with Pt-DPTZ/CeO ₂ (71%) at 100% silane conversion (80 °C, 100 min), ⁷⁸ demonstrating desired stronger tolerance towards unstable groups than the Karstedt catalyst (~ 50% selectivity). ^{42, 78} These results indicate that the mixed-ligand method offers a valid approach to alleviate the active site leaching problem. This strategy also provides another layer of tunability to the Pt sites as one can change catalyst properties by varying either ligand and the molar ratio between the two ligands. [072] Scheme 3. Hydrosilylation reaction between 4-vinyl-1-cyclohexane 1,2- epoxide and trimethoxysilane. [073] Post-reaction XPS shows that on Pt-BPhen+DPTZ, only a small fraction of Pt are the active sites. According to Table 2, total Pt leaching is significant after three cycles (23% total Pt recovery). Nevertheless, the activity remains almost constant in Figure 5. This implies that the main active sites are retained, and leached Pt contribute little to the activity. Figure 2 and 6 show that fresh Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ has predominately Pt ²⁺ species. After the first cycle, Pt 4f peak shifts to slightly higher BE and the peak widens. Fitting reveals that some Pt ²⁺ are converted into Pt ^(2+δ)+ (Figure 6, Table 3). After three cycles, both BE and FWHM of Pt 4f peak change back to values similar with the fresh catalyst, and the peak can again be described with a single Pt ²⁺ component. These results indicate that, the Pt ²⁺ on fresh Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ represents multiple species of similar oxidation states. During 3 reaction cycles, some are converted into Pt ^(2+δ)+ first and then leached away. Only a small fraction are highly stable, remaining on CeO ₂ with unchanged oxidation state. However, they are much more catalytically active than other species, and hence the catalyst shows good reusability overall. Table 3 and Figure 7 show that the decrease in Cl:Pt ratio after the reaction, which has been linked with Pt activation, ⁷⁸ is observed on Pt- BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ . N:Pt ratio does not decrease (Table 3, Figure 8), highlighting the strong binding between Pt and the bidentate N pockets. It was also discovered that treating Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ with only 2 in toluene (without 1) at 70 °C leads to almost complete loss of Pt, N, Cl (Figures 9-11 respectively) and activity. Therefore, despite the main active Pt ²⁺ sites being highly recyclable under reaction conditions, interacting with silane without alkene induces complete leaching of Pt complexes. [074] Table 3. Changes in relative Pt concentrations of various oxidation states, N : Pt ratio, and Cl : Pt ratio on Pt-PDO/CeO ₂ and Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ [a] Relative concentration of a Pt component on a sample was calculated based on the peak area from fittings (normalized to Ce 3d area of the same sample). For each catalyst, the total Pt 4f peak area of its fresh form was defined as 1. [075] 3. Using bidentate N-based ligands as “anchoring ligands” [076] The third strategy explored was to use a bidentate N-based ligand to modify oxide supports for Pt-DPTZ LCSCs. The synthesis procedure includes two steps: an “anchoring” ligand was first deposited onto an oxide to form a ligand-modified oxide. Then, Pt-DPTZ SACs were synthesized using a usual procedure, ⁷⁷ with the anchoring- ligand-modified oxide as the support. Not to be limited by theory, it was hypothesized that the ligand-modified supports can enhance catalyst reusability because the anchoring ligand can offer stronger interactions with Pt than surface O from pristine oxides. The concept was tested using PDO and 4,4’-BPDCA as anchoring ligands on both CeO ₂ and MgO (with similar surface area). The successful deposition of the anchoring ligand after the first step is verified by XPS N 1s peak area analysis (Figure 12), with higher loading on CeO ₂ than on MgO. Pt 4f XPS of both CeO ₂ -supported catalysts show predominantly Pt ²⁺ (Figure 13), as on pristine CeO ₂ . ⁷⁷ On both MgO-supported catalysts, the Pt 4f peak is wider and more asymmetric (low-binding-energy tail), compared to the CeO ₂ catalysts, and fitting shows a small fraction of Pt ⁰ (Figure 13), likely from small amount of Pt nanoparticles, which is not observed with Pt-DPTZ on pristine MgO. ⁷⁷ [077] The activity and Pt recyclability of these catalysts are reported in Table 4. The enhancement in Pt recyclability by the anchoring ligand is clearly observed on both supports, as Pt recovery increases on ligand-modified supports compared with pristine supports. Meanwhile, activity drops, the extent of which varies. Despite the activity loss, Table 4 shows that when the proper anchoring ligand and support are used (PDO and CeO ₂ ), this strategy can create Pt-DPTZ LCSCs with significantly improved Pt recyclability (from 62% to 82%) while maintaining acceptable activity (68% yield at 70 °C for 30 min). Therefore, the anchoring ligand method is a promising approach. Pt recyclability is better on CeO ₂ than on MgO, likely due to the higher anchoring ligand coverage CeO ₂ (Figure 12). [078] Table 4. Activity and total Pt recovery (after 1 reaction cycle) of Pt- DPTZ SACs supported on anchoring-ligand-modified oxides [a] Reaction condition: T = 70 °C, t = 30 min, 30 mg catalyst, 6 mmol 1, 5 mmol 2, and 3 mL toluene. [b] Reaction condition: T = 75 °C, t = 120 min, 30 mg catalyst, 6 mmol 1, 5 mmol 2, and 3 mL toluene. [c] Complete conversion of 2 was achieved in these reactions. [d] Data on Pt-DPTZ SACs were previously published in reference 78. [079] It was noted that in some cases, the activity loss with the anchoring ligand is too significant. For example, 4,4’-BPDCA leads to complete deactivation of Pt-DPTZ SACs on CeO ₂ . 5,5’-BPDCA, another ligand with the same functional groups but at different positions (Figure 14a), does the same. Control experiment shows that modifying CeO ₂ with trifluoroacetic acid (Figure 14b), a ligand with a −COOH group but without the bidentate N pocket to anchor Pt-DPTZ, does not completely deactivate the catalyst. Consequently, the deactivation cannot be simply attributed to −COOH groups occupying certain catalytically relevant sites on CeO ₂ , such as oxygen defects. Not to be limited by theory, it is suspected that the deactivation might be related to strong interactions between −COOH groups and CeO ₂ forcing BPDCA to stand up, pushing Pt away from the support. The loss of Pt-support interaction may impact the electronic structure of Pt enough to deactivate the site. It has been demonstrated previously that surface O temporarily detach from Pt during catalysis, acting as “reversible leaving groups,” ⁷⁸ so the lack of Pt-support binding may also reduce the number of leaving groups, so that the Pt is over-coordinated. The sensitivity of the metal center to the local coordination environment is a topic of ongoing study and interest. [080] Conclusions [081] A series of ligand-coordinated supported Pt hydrosilylation catalysts with various bidentate N-based ligands, designed to improve catalyst recyclability over previous Pt-DPTZ SACs are reported. These heterogeneous catalysts mostly contain highly dispersed Pt ²⁺ sites, and are active for alkene hydrosilylation under mild conditions with high selectivity. It has been demonstrated there are three approaches to alleviate the active site leaching problem on the original Pt-DPTZ SACs. First, by replacing DPTZ with a ligand containing additional functional groups that offer interactions with oxide supports, two active Pt hydrosilylation catalysts in Pt- BPhen/CeO ₂ and Pt-C9BP/CeO ₂ were developed. In addition, a material was discovered, Pt-4’4-BPDCA/CeO ₂ , which can recycle Pt much more effectively but lacks catalytic activity. Second, it was discovered that mixing DPTZ with BPhen leads to a highly reusable catalyst, Pt-BPhen+DPTZ/CeO ₂ , which shows only 10% activity loss after three reaction cycles, due to a Pt ²⁺ species that is highly active and stable, despite accounting for only a small fraction of total Pt. Finally, it was demonstrated that modifying oxide supports with an anchoring ligand, either PDO or 4’4-BPDCA, enhances Pt recyclability on Pt-DPTZ SACs supported on either CeO ₂ or MgO. All three strategies are promising to enhance reusability of supported Pt-ligand single-atom hydrosilylation catalysts, while maintaining high activity and selectivity. Meanwhile, new development in synthesis methods reported here also expands future opportunities to fine-tune metal centers in these catalysts towards desired properties. [082] References [083] 1.
