Synthesizing Pt/γ-Al2O3 materials, ubiquitous in heterogeneous catalysis, with well-defined Pt nuclearity remains challenging. In this work, we demonstrate how SOMC can be employed to tune cluster size down to single atoms.

Optimizing Pt/γ-Al2O3 catalysts by surface organometallic chemistry: the MeCpPtMe3 precursor excels in isolating Pt single atoms post-calcination, more than tmedaPtMe2 and CODPtMe2. Reduction forms s...
