Abstract
This study successfully encapsulated palladium nanoparticles within the metal–organic framework material UiO-66 using a straightforward method. Utilizing a microwave-assisted process, the pores of UiO-66 were activated, and the metal precursors were simultaneously reduced in the presence of a reducing agent. The morphological and physicochemical properties of the resulting material were thoroughly analyzed using various techniques, including EDX, SEM, XRD, TGA, BET, and ICP-OES. UiO-66-NH2-Pd demonstrated highly efficient catalytic activity in C–O cross-coupling reactions under mild conditions. Moreover, this nanostructured material offers notable advantages, such as high reaction efficiency, a simple preparation process, and environmentally friendly characteristics. The catalyst was easily recovered via centrifugation and recycled five times without significant palladium leaching or any substantial loss in activity.

Introduction
UiO-66 (Universitetet i Oslo), a zirconium-based metal–organic framework (MOF), exhibits exceptional physical and chemical properties, including a large specific surface area, sizable pore dimensions, and significant resistance to both water and organic solvents1–4. These attributes make UiO-66 a highly sought-after and promising material for catalytic applications5. The molecular formula of UiO-66 is Zr6O4(OH)4(CO2)12, featuring a 12-coordination structure the highest among metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with its zirconium atoms packed within the framework6. Its high thermal stability is attributed to the highly symmetrical inorganic metal units and the strong interaction forces between the Zr-octahedron and oxygen atoms7–9. In recent years, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a remarkable class of porous materials, distinguished by their exceptionally large surface areas, high tunability in terms of pore shape, size, and channel dimensions, well-defined and diverse crystal structures, uniformly distributed active sites across the network, adjustable concentrations of active metal centers, and excellent compatibility for chemical functionalization, including secondary active metal chelation10–12. UiO-66-NH₂ is specifically chosen over other metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) due to its excellent chemical and thermal stability, high surface area, and tunable pore size13,14. These properties make UiO-66-NH₂ suitable for various applications such as gas adsorption, catalysis, and drug delivery15–17. These unique attributes enable MOFs to be tailored for a broad range of advanced applications, including separation processes, drug delivery systems, magnetism, gas storage, adsorption, water treatment, healthcare solutions, chemical sensing, non-linear optics, and even as nanoreactors in catalytic processes4,18–20.
In synthetic organic chemistry, forming carbon–oxygen bonds is considered both fundamental and challenging. A particularly notable aspect of this field is carbon–oxygen coupling, which serves as a crucial process in the synthesis of diverse ether compounds both symmetric and asymmetric24–26. These ethers are highly valued for their broad pharmaceutical applications, contributing to the development of vital drugs that exhibit antihypertensive, antimicrobial, fungicidal, anti-diabetic, and analgesic properties21–23.
This manuscript concentrated on developing a Pd-based MOF by reacting H2PdCl4 with UiO-66-NH2. The resulting crystalline phase, UiO-66-NH2-Pd, has proven to be a highly promising catalyst for improving the efficiency of C–O cross-coupling reactions.
Experimental
Materials and Instrumentation
The chemicals used in this study were sourced from Fisher and Merck. All reagents and solvents applied during the research were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich, Fluka, or Merck, and were utilized directly without undergoing further purification.
Synthesis of UiO-66-NH2-Pd
To begin the synthesis, ZrCl4 (2 mmol) was dissolved in a solution composed of HCl (3 mL) and DMF (15 mL) using ultrasonic treatment, resulting in a clear solution. Next, 2-aminobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid (ABDC) (3.5 mmol), dispersed in 30 mL of DMF, was added to this prepared solution. The mixture was then exposed to microwave irradiation at 110 °C for 3 h. Afterward, centrifugation was used to recover the UiO-66 product, which was subsequently washed twice with water and dried under vacuum at 150 °C overnight. For further functionalization, 200 mg of UiO-66-NH2 was suspended in 10 mL of water, followed by the addition of an H2PdCl4 solution (6.66 mL, 2 mg/mL). This mixture was gently stirred at room temperature for 24 h to facilitate the deposition of palladium. Excess metal ions were removed by collecting the solid through centrifugation. The solid was then redispersed in water and treated with NaBH4 (1 g) under continuous stirring. The reaction mixture was subjected to microwave irradiation at 30 °C for 45 min. Finally, the resulting UiO-66-NH2-Pd product was recovered through centrifugation, washed with deionized water, and dried under vacuum at 50 °C, as illustrated in Fig. 1.27.

Preparation of C–O coupling reactions
A mixture consisting of phenol (1.2 mmol), iodobenzene (1 mmol), and potassium hydroxide (1.1 mmol) was prepared in the presence of the UiO-66-NH2–Pd catalyst (20 mg) and dissolved in ethanol. The solution was subjected to agitation under reflux conditions to promote the reaction. The progress of the reaction was monitored using thin-layer chromatography (TLC). After the reaction had reached completion, the catalyst was separated from the reaction mixture using filter paper. The product was then purified by washing with ethyl acetate and water. The organic phase was dried using anhydrous sodium sulfate, after which the solvent was evaporated to obtain the pure products, as illustrated in Fig. 2.

Result and discussion
The XRD patterns of UiO-66-NH2 and UiO-66-NH2–Pd are illustrated in Fig. 3. The UiO-66-NH2 samples exhibit distinct sharp peaks, consistent with previously reported patterns, indicating their excellent crystallinity. As shown in Fig. 3, the Pd-functionalized UiO-66-NH2 displays peaks associated with both UiO-66-NH2 and Pd nanoparticles, confirming the successful attachment of Pd nanoparticles onto the magnetic amine-functionalized UiO-66-NH2 framework. Additionally, the diffraction peaks of UiO-66-NH2–Pd are highly similar to those of UiO-66-NH2, demonstrating that the material retains its crystalline structure following metal coordination.

Figure 4 presents the TGA analysis of UiO-66-NH2 and UiO-66-NH2–Pd. The initial weight loss observed around 250 °C corresponds to the release of water molecules trapped within the MOF pores. Subsequently, the second weight loss is attributed to the decomposition of the organic groups in the samples. The divergence between the two curves reflects the relative amount of palladium encapsulated in the MOF pores, estimated at approximately 7%. Also, according to this analysis, it can be concluded that the synthesized catalyst is thermally stable up to 350 °C and does not degrade in the reaction mixture.

Figure 5 demonstrates that the EDX analysis identified the presence of O, N, C, Pd, and Zr elements in the synthesized material, confirming the successful formation of UiO-66-NH2–Pd. Additionally, the detection of Pd peaks in the spectrum further substantiates the effective integration of Pd into the UiO-66-NH2-Pd framework. The study of palladium leaching from UiO-66-NH2–Pd employed ICP analysis, poisoning tests, and hot filtration experiments. ICP-OES analysis indicated palladium concentrations of 0.93 × 10⁻3 mol g⁻1 in the fresh catalyst and 0.91 × 10⁻3 mol g⁻1 in the reused catalyst. These results highlight a negligible extent of metal leaching in this system.

The particle size, shape, dimensions, and textural morphology were analyzed using SEM. Figure 6 shows particle images captured at various magnifications. The nanocrystals exhibit a homomorphic and cubical structure with an average size ranging from 50 to 100 nm. The Pd association or surface functionalization does not appear to significantly alter their apparent morphology. However, the particles show signs of slight agglomeration, likely caused by the high concentration during sampling (Fig. 6).

Figure 7 illustrates the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra of the synthesized UiO-67-Pd catalyst, revealing the presence of key elements such as zirconium (Zr), oxygen (O), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and palladium (Pd) within the material’s structure. A detailed assessment is presented in Fig. 7a, where the elemental contributions within the sample are highlighted, providing confirmation of its composite nature and verifying the presence of these primary components. Focusing on palladium analysis, Fig. 7b showcases its distinct XPS spectra. Notable peaks are identified in the energy regions at 330.5 electron volts (eV) and 344.1 eV, corresponding to the Pd 3d5/2 and Pd 3d3/2 oxidation states, respectively. These observations indicate that palladium exists in the catalyst structure predominantly in oxidized forms or specific oxidation states—features known to play a critical role in catalytic processes. The data align with earlier interpretations, confirming that palladium within the UiO-67 structure primarily appears as Pd(II) or potentially other oxidation states. These results underline that the catalyst not only integrates essential elements but also stabilizes palladium in defined oxidation states, which are crucial for its catalytic performance and durability. Consequently, these XPS spectra serve as compelling evidence to substantiate the chemical composition and oxidative characteristics of the UiO-67-Pd catalyst, reinforcing its relevance in scientific discussions and literature.

The BET-specific surface areas for UiO-66-NH2 and Pd-functionalized UiO-66-NH2 are measured at 794.4 m2/g and 590.7 m2/g, respectively. These results indicate the incorporation of Pd nanoparticles, as evidenced by the reduction in BET-specific surface area, total pore volume, and mean pore diameter in UiO-66-NH2–Pd when compared to UiO-66-NH2 (Table 1).

Catalytic studies
During the initial phase of the research, the UiO-66-NH2–Pd complex was evaluated as a catalyst for the C–O coupling reaction. To optimize the reaction conditions, iodobenzene (1 mmol) was selected as the model substrate (see Table 2). The study began by assessing the effect of varying catalyst amounts on the reaction’s performance, revealing that the highest yield was obtained with 20 mg of UiO-66-NH2–Pd. Further investigations examined the influence of the base, solvent, and reaction temperature. It was determined that the optimal C–O cross-coupling product yield was achieved using EtOH as the solvent and KOH as the base under reflux conditions, leading to the maximum production of phenol. As a result, the ideal reaction conditions involve 20 mg of UiO-66-NH2–Pd as the catalyst, 1.1 mmol of KOH as the base, and EtOH under reflux.

With the optimized reaction conditions established, we explored the scope of substrates comprising phenol and aryl halides under reflux conditions in EtOH, using KOH and 20 g of UiO-66-NH2-Pd. The results are summarized in Table 3. A range of aryl halides, featuring both electron-withdrawing and electron-donating groups, demonstrated efficient reactivity with phenol, yielding outstanding isolated products and exhibiting high TOF values, as detailed in Table 3.

The proposed mechanism for the C–O coupling reaction, based on prior studies, is depicted in Fig. 9. The process begins with the oxidative addition of the aryl halide to Pd, yielding intermediate 1. Following this, intermediate 1 reacts with 4-chlorophenol in the presence of the base KOH, leading to the formation of intermediate 2. Finally, intermediate 2 undergoes reductive elimination to produce the ether and regenerate the copper nanoparticle, as outlined in Fig. 9.

Hot filtration
The heterogeneous nature of the UiO-66-NH2-Pd catalyst was validated through a hot filtration test. To investigate this, the coupling reaction of 4-chlorophenol and phenyl iodide was initiated with the catalyst and halted after 15 min, yielding 52% biphenyl ether. The experiment was then repeated, but this time, the nanocatalyst was removed after 15 min, allowing the reaction mixture to continue for an additional 15 min without the catalyst. This yielded 54% biphenyl ether. These results confirm that the UiO-66-NH2–Pd catalyst functions under heterogeneous conditions, effectively facilitating C–O coupling reactions.
Reusability of catalyst
Recycling catalysts is essential for the efficiency of catalytic systems. To examine this aspect, the recyclability of UiO-66-NH2–Pd was tested in the coupling reaction of 4-chlorophenol with phenyl iodide (Fig. 10). Once the reaction concluded, the catalyst was retrieved via centrifugation, cleaned with ethyl acetate, and successfully reused up to five times without significant loss in catalytic activity. These results highlight the practical effectiveness of recycling UiO-66-NH2–Pd.

Conclusions
This study successfully introduced a novel crystalline mesostructure, UiO-66-NH2–Pd, developed through the reaction of H2PdCl4 with UiO-66-NH2, both commercially accessible starting materials. The synthesized UiO-66-NH2–Pd nanocomposite exhibited outstanding catalytic performance in C–O cross-coupling reactions, delivering high yields and exceptional purity. The proposed methodology presents several significant advantages, including its innovative approach, a simple synthesis process, the exclusion of toxic solvents, excellent stability, and impressive reusability. Moreover, this method is highly efficient, requiring only minimal amounts of catalyst, simplifying separation procedures, and enabling repeated reuse and recycling of the catalyst without any noticeable decline in its catalytic activity.
