Unimolecular decomposition pathways are challenging to address in transition-metal catalysis and have previously not been suppressed via incorporation into a solid support. Two robust metal-organic frameworks (IRMOF-10 and bio-MOF-100) are used for the architectural stabilization of a structurally well-defined gold(III) catalyst. The inherent rigidity of these materials is utilized to preclude a unimolecular decomposition pathway—reductive elimination. Through this architectural stabilization strategy, decomposition of the incorporated gold(III) catalyst in the metal-organic frameworks is not observed; in contrast, the homogeneous analog is prone to decomposition in solution. Finally, stabilization of the catalyst in these metal-organic frameworks precludes leaching and enables recyclability, which is crucial for productive heterogeneous catalysis.
