The catalytic oxidation of CO on Fe-embedded graphene was investigated by means first-principles computations. Fe atom can be constrained at a vacancy site with high diffusion barrier (6.78 eV), and effectively activate the adsorbed O2 molecule. reactions between via both Langmuir−Hinshelwood (LH) Eley−Rideal (ER) mechanisms were comparably studied. shows good activity for more favorable ER mechanism two-step route.
