In Situ Amine Formation to Modulate MOF‐Derived PdIn N‐Doped Carbon Catalysts
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An amine‐assisted approach converts PdIn‐MOF into PdIn intermetallic nanoparticles embedded in N‐doped carbon. In situ‐generated amines trigger early Pd nucleation, producing smaller PdIn domains than direct pyrolysis. Amine sterics and basicity tune composition and particle size, while solvent and amine co‐determine textural features.
