Understanding the structural evolution of single-atom catalysts (SACs) in catalytic reactions is crucial for unraveling their mechanisms. In this study, we utilize density functional theory calculations to delve into active phase and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) mechanism tungsten semicarbide-based transition metal SACs (TM1/W2C). The stable crystal phases optimal surface exposures W2C are identified by using ab initio atomistic thermodynamics simulations. Focusing on W-terminated (001)...
Regulating the spin states of catalysts to enhance activity is fascinating but challenging. Herein, by using first-principles calculations, single transition-metal (TM) atoms Mo, Re, and Os embedded in nitrogen vacancy MoSi2N4 monolayer (TM1/VN-MoSi2N4) were screened out as potential for electrochemical reduction reaction ammonia. Our findings suggest that these active centers can be precisely gradually tuned through a simple doping strategy. Additionally, one O atom into Mo1/VN-MoSi2N4...
Enhancing the selectivity of photocatalytic CO2 reduction to valuable multicarbon (C2+) products remains a significant challenge in green synthetic chemistry. Here, we present dual-center strategy for metal oxides that boosts photochemical conversion ethanol by regulating coordination number and oxygen sites. Notably, CuO catalysts rich low-coordinated Cu–O domains have achieved nearly perfect (96.9%), extraordinary durability (60 h), superior yield rate 30.5 μmol·g–1·h–1, surpassing...
A series of chiral ketones derived from carbohydrates were investigated as catalysts for the asymmetric epoxidation. Fructose-derived are found to be efficient catalysts.

Power plant flue gas and industrial waste are produced in large quantities. Using these as feedstocks for CO2 electroreduction has important practical significance the treatment of excessive emissions. However, O2 such sources strongly inhibits electrochemical conversion CO2. The inhibitory effect can be mitigated by constructing CO2-enriched regions on surface cathode. In this study, reaction zone was controlled selective adsorption oxygen-functionalized carbon materials. results quantum...
Dispersion of a platinum monolayer on MXenes facilitates charge transfer from the Mo 2 TiC support to Pt at interface, characterized by MSI, thereby accumulating atoms and significantly boosting HER activity.
To develop high-performance and low-cost catalysts for electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) in producing ammonia, a promising alternative to the Haber–Bosch process continues be substantial challenge. Herein, by using density functional theory calculations, single-atom-supported pristine nitrogen-doped (N-doped) graphdiyne (GDY) monolayer-catalyzed eNRR were investigated realize high performance via rational design. Candidate include 10 different transition-metal (M = Cr, Mn,...
The pore size range of activated carbon has an important effect on formaldehyde adsorption, while nitrogen-doped can promote but the mechanism adsorption at different not been elaborated clearly.

Abstract (-)-Trans-4-t-butyldimethylsilyloxymethyl-2-cyclopentenol (13), a key intermediate for the synthesis of (-)-carbovir (15), was synthesized by using enantioselective bicyclic ring construction chiral α-diazo-β-keto ester 3 catalyzed rhodium (II) acetate. Notes Direct conversion methyl 1 to 2 exchange method in presence 4-DMAP PhMe at reflux 15 h (see, ref. 5a) gave poor yield (33%, and 19% recovered). On other hand, when copper bronze powder used as catalyst, reaction toluene...
