Size‐Selective Olefin Hydrogenation by a Pd Nanocluster Provided in an Apo‐Ferritin Cage

Deep penetration by substrates through the size‐restricted channels of an apo‐ferritin cage results in size‐selective olefin hydrogenation at the Pd nanocluster core (see picture). The encapsulated zero‐valent cluster is synthesized in situ by chemical reduction of PdII ions in the apo‐ferritin cage...

Description
Summary:Deep penetration by substrates through the size‐restricted channels of an apo‐ferritin cage results in size‐selective olefin hydrogenation at the Pd nanocluster core (see picture). The encapsulated zero‐valent cluster is synthesized in situ by chemical reduction of PdII ions in the apo‐ferritin cage.
