ABSTRACT
Elucidating the reaction mechanism in heterogeneous catalysis is critically important for catalyst development, yet remains challenging because of often unclear nature active sites. Using a molecularly defined copper single-atom supported by UiO-66 metal-organic framework (Cu/UiO-66) allows detailed mechanistic elucidation CO oxidation reaction. Based on combination situ/operando spectroscopies, kinetic measurements including isotope effects, and density-functional-theory-based calculations, we identified site, intermediates, transition states dominant cycle as well changes oxidation/spin state during The involves continuous reactive dissociation adsorbed O2 , O2,ad with COad leading to formation an O atom connecting Cu center neighboring Zr4+ ion rate limiting step.
