Abstract
Electrochemical acetylene reduction (EAR) employing Cu catalysts represents an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method for ethylene production and purification. However, Cu-based catalysts encounter product selectivity issues stemming from carbon-carbon coupling and other side reactions. We explored the use of secondary metals to modify Cu-based catalysts and identified Cd decoration as particular effective. Cd decoration demonstrated a high ethylene Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 98.38 % with well-inhibited carbon-carbon coupling reactions (0.06 % for butadiene FE at -0.5 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode) in a 5 vol % acetylene gas feed. Notably, ethylene selectivity of 99.99 % was achieved in the crude ethylene feed during prolonged stability tests. Theoretical calculations revealed that Cd metal accelerates the water dissociation on neighboring Cu surfaces allowing more H* to participate in the acetylene semi-hydrogenation, while increasing the energy barrier for carbon-carbon coupling, thereby contributing to a high ethylene semi-hydrogenation efficiency and significant inhibition of carbon-carbon coupling. This study provides a paradigm for a deeper understanding of secondary metals in regulating the product selectivity of EAR electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The determination of catalytically active sites is crucial for understanding the catalytic mechanism and providing guidelines for the design of more efficient catalysts. However, the complex structure of supported metal nanocatalysts (e.g., support, metal surface, and metal-support interface) still presents a big challenge. In particular, many studies have demonstrated that metal-support interfaces could also act as the primary active sites in catalytic reactions, which is well elucidated in oxide-supported metal nanocatalysts but is rarely reported in carbon-supported metal nanocatalysts. Here, we fill the above gap and demonstrate that metal-sulfur interfaces in sulfur-doped carbon-supported metal nanocatalysts are the primary active sites for several catalytic hydrogenation reactions. A series of metal nanocatalysts with similar sizes but different amounts of metal-sulfur interfaces were first constructed and characterized. Taking Ir for quinoline hydrogenation as an example, it was found that their catalytic activities were proportional to the amount of the Ir-S interface. Further experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggested that the adsorption and activation of quinoline occurred on the Ir atoms at the Ir-S interface. Similar phenomena were found in p-chloronitrobenzene hydrogenation over the Pt-S interface and benzoic acid hydrogenation over the Ru-S interface. All of these findings verify the predominant activity of metal-sulfur interfaces for catalytic hydrogenation reactions and contribute to the comprehensive understanding of metal-support interfaces in supported nanocatalysts.

Efficient Alkyne Semihydrogenation Catalysis Enabled by Synergistic Chemical and Thermal Modifications of a PdIn MOF. ACS Catal 2024; 14:4768-4785. [PMID: 38601779 PMCID: PMC11002973 DOI: 10.1021/acscatal.4c00310] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2024] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024]
Abstract
Recently, there has been a growing interest in using MOF templating to synthesize heterogeneous catalysts based on metal nanoparticles on carbonaceous supports. Unlike the common approach of direct pyrolysis of PdIn-MOFs at high temperatures, this work proposes a reductive chemical treatment under mild conditions before pyrolysis (resulting in PdIn-QT). The resulting material (PdIn-QT) underwent comprehensive characterization via state-of-the-art aberration-corrected electron microscopy, N2 physisorption, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. These analyses have proven the existence of PdIn bimetallic nanoparticles supported on N-doped carbon. In situ DRIFT spectroscopy reveals the advantageous role of indium (In) in regulating Pd activity in alkyne semihydrogenation. Notably, incorporating a soft nucleation step before pyrolysis enhances surface area, porosity, and nitrogen content compared to direct MOF pyrolysis. The optimized material exhibits outstanding catalytic performance with 96% phenylacetylene conversion and 96% selectivity to phenylethylene in the fifth cycle under mild conditions (5 mmol phenylacetylene, 7 mg cat, 5 mL EtOH, R.T., 1 H2 bar).

Abstract
Catalysis involving gold supported on metal oxides has undergone extensive examination. However, the nature of the catalytic site under actual reaction conditions and the role of the support continue to be vigorously debated. This study addresses these issues through experimental investigations and theoretical simulations. We explore a novel catalytic mechanism that employs dynamic single-atom catalysis for the hydrochlorination of acetylene. This catalytic mechanism occurs in defective ZrO2-supported Au-Zr single-atom alloys. Specifically, the dynamic single-atom catalysis is a result of the mobility of the gold cation, which is accelerated by Cl radicals and strongly couples with the abundant unsaturated surface sites of ZrO2 in a synergistic manner. As a result, the Au electronic structure dynamically evolves, leading to a decrease in the addition reaction energy barrier. Notably, the Au cation can detach from the Au-Zr alloy structure to catalyze the hydrochlorination of acetylene near the Zr-Ov-Zr sites and then reintegrate back into the Au-Zr alloy structure upon completion of the reaction. This study underscores the significance of dynamic active sites under reaction conditions and their pivotal role in catalysis.

Abstract
The dynamic response of single-atom catalysts to a reactive environment is an increasingly significant topic for understanding the reaction mechanism at the molecular level. In particular, single atoms may experience dynamic aggregation into clusters or nanoparticles driven by thermodynamic or kinetic factors. Herein, the inherent mechanistic nuances that determine the dynamic profile during the reaction will be uncovered, including the intrinsic stability and site-migration barrier of single atoms, external stimuli (temperature, voltage, and adsorbates), and the influence of catalyst support. Such dynamic aggregation can be beneficial or deleterious on the catalytic performance depending on the optimal initial state. Those examples will be highlighted where in situ formed clusters, rather than single atoms, serve as catalytically active sites for improved catalytic performance. This is followed by the introduction of operando techniques to understand the structural evolution. Finally, the emerging strategies via confinement and defect-engineering to regulate dynamic aggregation will be briefly discussed.

Abstract
Selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes is a significant reaction for preparing functionalized alkenes. Electrochemical semi-hydrogenation presents a sustainable alternative to the traditional thermal process. In this research, affordable copper acetylacetonate is employed as a catalyst precursor for the electrocatalytic hydrogenation of alkynes, using MeOH as the hydrogen source in an undivided cell. Good to excellent yields for both aromatic and aliphatic internal/terminal alkynes are obtained under constant current conditions. Notably, up to 99% Z selectivity is achieved for various internal alkynes. Mechanistic investigations revealed the formation of copper nanoparticles (NPs) at the cathode during electrolysis, acting as the catalyst for the selective semireduction of alkynes. The copper NPs deposited cathode demonstrated reusable for further hydrogenation.

Abstract
Hydrogen spillover widely occurs in a variety of hydrogen-involved chemical and physical processes. Recently, metal-organic frameworks have been extensively explored for their integration with noble metals toward various hydrogen-related applications, however, the hydrogen spillover in metal/MOF composite structures remains largely elusive given the challenges of collecting direct evidence due to system complexity. Here we show an elaborate strategy of modular signal amplification to decouple the behavior of hydrogen spillover in each functional regime, enabling spectroscopic visualization for interfacial dynamic processes. Remarkably, we successfully depict a full picture for dynamic replenishment of surface hydrogen atoms under interfacial hydrogen spillover by quick-scanning extended X-ray absorption fine structure, in situ surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and ab initio molecular dynamics calculation. With interfacial hydrogen spillover, Pd/ZIF-8 catalyst shows unique alkyne semihydrogenation activity and selectivity for alkynes molecules. The methodology demonstrated in this study also provides a basis for further exploration of interfacial species migration.

Abstract
Alkyne hydrogenation on palladium-based catalysts modified with silver is currently used in industry to eliminate trace amounts of alkynes in alkenes produced from steam cracking and alkane dehydrogenation processes. Intensive efforts have been devoted to designing an alternative catalyst for improvement, especially in terms of selectivity and catalyst cost, which is still far away from that as expected. Here, we describe an atomic design of a high-performance Ni-based intermetallic catalyst aided by active machine learning combined with density functional theory calculations. The engineered NiIn catalyst exhibits >97% selectivity to ethylene and propylene at the full conversion of acetylene and propyne at mild temperature, outperforming the reported Ni-based catalysts and even noble Pd-based ones. Detailed mechanistic studies using theoretical calculations and advanced characterizations elucidate that the atomic-level defined coordination environment of Ni sites and well-designed hybridization of Ni 3d with In 5p orbital determine the semihydrogenation pathway.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 653:39-45. [PMID: 37708730 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.09.062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
Selective hydrogenation of alkynols to alkenols is an essential process for producing fine and intermediate chemicals. Currently, thermocatalytic alkynol hydrogenation faces several challenges, e.g., the safety of high-pressure hydrogen (H2) gas and the need for elevated temperature, and unavoidable side reactions, e.g., overhydrogenation. Here, a novel photocatalytic strategy is proposed for selectively reducing alkynols to alkenols with water as a hydrogen source under ambient temperature and pressure. Under the irradiation of simulated solar light, carbon nitride (C3N4) nanosheets with palladium (Pd) nanoparticles as cocatalysts (Pd-C3N4 NSs) exhibit a 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol (MBY) conversion of 98% and 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBE) selectivity of 95%, outperforming state-of-the-art thermocatalysts and electrocatalysts. After natural-sunlight irradiation (average light intensity of 25.13 mW cm-2) for 36 h, a MBY conversion of 98% and MBE selectivity of 92% was achieved in a large-scale photocatalytic system (2500 cm2). Experimental and theoretical investigations reveal that Pd cocatalysts on C3N4 facilitate the adsorption and hydrogenation of MBY as well as the formation of active hydrogen species, which promote the selective semihydrogenation of alkynols. Moreover, the proposed strategy is applicable to various water-soluble alkynols. This work paves the way for photocatalytic strategies to replace thermocatalytic hydrogenation processes using pressurized hydrogen.

Abstract
Supported metal clusters comprising of well-tailored low-nuclearity heteroatoms have great potentials in catalysis owing to the maximized exposure of active sites and metal synergy. However, atomically precise design of these architectures is still challenging for the lack of practical approaches. Here, we report a defect-driven nanostructuring strategy through combining defect engineering of nitrogen-doped carbons and sequential metal depositions to prepare a series of Pt and Mo ensembles ranging from single atoms to sub-nanoclusters. When applied in continuous gas-phase decomposition of formic acid, the low-nuclearity ensembles with unique Pt3Mo1N3 configuration deliver high-purity hydrogen at full conversion with unexpected high activity of 0.62 molHCOOH molPt-1 s-1 and remarkable stability, significantly outperforming the previously reported catalysts. The remarkable performance is rationalized by a joint operando dual-beam Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy and density functional theory modeling study, pointing to the Pt-Mo synergy in creating a new reaction path for consecutive HCOOH dissociations.

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysts with targeted functionality can be designed with atomic precision, but it is challenging to retain the structure and performance upon the scaled-up manufacturing. Particularly challenging is to ensure the "atomic economy", where every catalytic site is most gainfully utilized. Given the emerging synergistic integration of human- and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven augmented designs (AD), augmented analytics (AA), and augmented reality manufacturing (AM) platforms, this minireview focuses on single-atom heterogeneous catalysts (SAHCs) and examines the current status, challenges, and future perspectives of translating atomic-level structural precision and data-driven discovery to next-generation industrial manufacturing. We critically examine the atomistic insights into structure-driven SAHCs functionality and discuss the opportunities and challenges on the way towards the synergistic human-AI collaborative data-driven platform capable of monitoring, analyzing, manufacturing, and retaining the atomic-scale structure and functions. Enhanced by the atomic-level AD, AA, and AM, evolving from the current high-throughput capabilities and digital materials manufacturing acceleration, this synergistic human-AI platform is promising to enable atom-efficient and atomically precise heterogeneous catalyst production.

Abstract
The semi-hydrogenation reaction of alkynes is important in the fine chemicals and pharmaceutical industries, and it is thus important to find catalytic processes that will drive the reaction efficiently and at a low cost. The real challenge is to drive the alkyne-to-alkene reaction while avoiding over-hydrogenation to the saturated alkane moiety. The problem is more difficult when dealing with aromatic substitution at the alkyne center. Simple photocatalysts based on Palladium tend to proceed to the alkane, and stopping at the alkene with good selectivity requires very precise timing with basically no timing tolerance. We report here that the goal of high conversion with high selectivity could be achieved with TiO2-supported copper (Cu@TiO2), although with slower kinetics than for Pd@TiO2. A novel bimetallic catalyst, namely, CuPd@TiO2 (0.8% Cu and 0.05% Pd), with methanol as the hydrogen source could improve the kinetics by 50% with respect to Cu@TiO2, while achieving selectivities over 95% and with exceptional timing tolerance. Further, the low Palladium content minimizes its use, as Palladium is regarded as an element at risk of depletion.

Abstract
Heterogenous Pd catalysts play a pivotal role in the chemical industry; however, it is plagued by S2- or other strong adsorbates inducing surface poisoning long term. Herein, we report the development of AuFe3@Pd/γ-Fe2O3 nanosheets (NSs) as an in situ regenerable and highly active hydrogenation catalyst. Upon poisoning, the Pd monolayer sites could be fully and oxidatively regenerated under ambient conditions, which is initiated by •OH radicals from surface defect/FeTetra vacancy-rich γ-Fe2O3 NSs via the Fenton-like pathway. Both experimental and theoretical analyses demonstrate that for the electronic and geometric effect, the 2-3 nm AuFe3 intermetallic nanocluster core promotes the adsorption of reactant onto Pd sites; in addition, it lowers Pd's affinity for •OH radicals to enhance their stability during oxidative regeneration. When packed into a quartz sand fixed-bed catalyst column, the AuFe3@Pd/γ-Fe2O3 NSs are highly active in hydrogenating the carbon-halogen bond, which comprises a crucial step for the removal of micropollutants in drinking water and recovery of resources from heavily polluted wastewater, and withstand ten rounds of regeneration. By maximizing the use of ultrathin metal oxide NSs and intermetallic nanocluster and monolayer Pd, the current study demonstrates a comprehensive strategy for developing sustainable Pd catalysts for liquid catalysis.

Abstract
2D materials with mixed crystal phase will lead to the nonuniformity of performance and go against the practical application. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a valid method to synthesize 2D materials with typical stoichiometry. Here, 2D palladium sulfides with centimeter scale and uniform stoichiometric ratio are synthesized via controlling the sulfurization temperature of palladium thin films. The relationship between sulfurization temperature and products is investigated in depth. Besides, the high-quality 2D PdS2 films are synthesized via sulfurization at the temperature of 450-550 °C, which would be compatible with back-end-of-line processes in semiconductor industry with considering of process temperature. The PdS2 films show an n-type semiconducting behavior with high mobility of 10.4 cm2 V-1 s-1 . The PdS2 photodetector presents a broadband photoresponse from 450 to 1550 nm. These findings provide a reliable way to synthesizing high-quality and large-area 2D materials with uniform crystal phase. The result suggests that 2D PdS2 has significant potential in future nanoelectronics and optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
Prospects in light-driven water activation have prompted rapid progress in hydrogenation reactions. We describe a Ni2+ -N4 site built on carbon nitride for catalyzed semihydrogenation of alkynes, with water supplying protons, powered by visible-light irradiation. Importantly, the photocatalytic approach developed here enabled access to diverse deuterated alkenes in D2 O with excellent deuterium incorporation. Under visible-light irradiation, evolution of a four-coordinate Ni2+ species into a three-coordinate Ni+ species was spectroscopically identified. In combination with theoretical calculations, the photo-evolved Ni+ is posited as HO-Ni+ -N2 with an uncoordinated, protonated pyridinic nitrogen, formed by coupled Ni2+ reduction and water dissociation. The paired Ni-N prompts hydrogen liberation from water, and it renders desorption of alkene preferred over further hydrogenation to alkane, ensuring excellent semihydrogenation selectivity.

Tripodal Pd metallenes mediated by Nb 2C MXenes for boosting alkynes semihydrogenation. Nat Commun 2023; 14:661.

Abstract
2D metallene nanomaterials have spurred considerable attention in heterogeneous catalysis by virtue of sufficient unsaturated metal atoms, high specific surface area and surface strain. Nevertheless, the strong metallic bonding in nanoparticles aggravates the difficulty in the controllable regulation of the geometry of metallenes. Here we propose an efficient galvanic replacement strategy to construct Pd metallenes loaded on Nb2C MXenes at room temperature, which is triggered by strong metal-support interaction based on MD simulations. The Pd metallenes feature a chair structure of six-membered ring with the coordination number of Pd as low as 3. Coverage-dependent kinetic analysis based on first-principles calculations reveals that the tripodal Pd metallenes promote the diffusion of alkene and inhibit its overhydrogenation. As a consequence, Pd/Nb2C delivers an outstanding turnover frequency of 10372 h-1 and a high selectivity of 96% at 25 oC in the semihydrogenation of alkynes without compromising the stability. This strategy is general and scalable considering the plentiful members of the MXene family, which can set a foundation for the design of novel supported-metallene catalysts for demanding transformations.

Abstract
An alternative to the Lindlar catalyst for the semihydrogenation reaction of alkynes to alkenes is of high interest. Here we show that palladium on carbon (Pd/C), i.e., a widely available supported Pd catalyst, is converted from an unselective to a chemoselective catalyst during the semihydrogenation reaction of alkynes, after the addition of catalytic amounts of commercially available electron-poor phosphines. The catalytic activity is ≤7 times greater, and the selectivity is comparable to that of the industrial benchmark Lindlar catalyst.

Abstract
Selective hydrogenation of alkynes to obtain alkenes is a key reaction in petrochemical and fine chemical industries. However, the development of stable and highly selective catalysts with uniformly dispersed active sites is still immensely challenging for the semi-hydrogenation of alkynes. In this study, N-doped porous carbon nanospheres (NPCNs) were synthesized by the nanoemulsion self-assembly and subsequently carbonization method. Ultrafine PdCu bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) were uniformly dispersed and immobilized on NPCNs. The obtained PdCu/NPCNs catalyst exhibited an open framework and abundant active sites originating from ultrafine PdCu NPs. In the semi-hydrogenation of alkynes, the PdCu/NPCNs catalyst exhibited a remarkable performance and stability, outperforming most of the classical catalysts. The excellent performance was related to the introduction of a secondary metal Cu, which can regulate the electronic state of Pd active sites to further enhance the hydrogenation activity and selectivity. Hence, the facile approach reported herein may be useful for constructing highly dispersed bimetallic NP-based catalysts for selective hydrogenation of alkynes in the petrochemical industry.

Abstract
Alloying is an effective approach to improve the catalysis performance of Pd-based catalysts for the selective hydrogenation of diolefins towards monoolefines. Herein, PdAgCu ternary nanoalloy catalysts were synthesised by a stepwise impregnation method for isoprene selective hydrogenation. The addition of a moderate amount of Ag and Cu to Pd significantly enhances the isoamylene selectivity in the isoprene hydrogenation, and decreases the non-desired over-hydrogenation. In addition, the loading molar ratio of PdAgCu with 3 : 2 : 3 as the optimal ternary nanoalloy composition maximizes the isoprene conversion (98%) and the monoolefins yield (92%). The surface structure of the catalyst was probed using H2-TPR, TEM, XRD, and XPS characterization methods, and it was confirmed that the surface Pd composition ratio between the metallic and oxidized states shows significant effects on the monoolefines yield. This work demonstrates the advantages of PdAgCu ternary nanoalloy catalysts for isoprene selective hydrogenation, which also provides guidelines for the development of other Pd-based ternary nanoalloys for diolefins selective hydrogenation.

Abstract
Subsurface chemistry in heterogeneous catalysis plays an important role in tuning catalytic performance. Aiming to unravel the role of subsurface heteroatoms, C2H2 semihydrogenation on a series of Pd catalysts doped with subsurface heteroatom H, B, C, N, P, or S was fully investigated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations together with microkinetic modeling. The obtained results showed that catalytic performance toward C2H2 semihydrogenation was affected significantly by the type and coverage of subsurface heteroatoms. The Pd-B0.5 and Pd-C0.5 catalysts with 1/2 monolayer (ML) heteroatom coverage, as well as Pd-N, Pd-P, and Pd-S catalysts with 1/16 ML heteroatom coverage, were screened to not only obviously improve C2H4 selectivity and activity but also effectively suppress green oil. The essential reason for subsurface heteroatoms in tuning catalytic performance is attributed to the distinctive surface Pd electronic and geometric structures caused by subsurface heteroatoms. In the Pd-B0.5 and Pd-C0.5 catalysts, the Pd surface electronic and geometric effects play the dominant role, while the geometric effect plays a key role in the Pd-N, Pd-P, and Pd-S catalysts. The findings provide theoretically valuable information for designing high-performance metal catalysts in alkyne semihydrogenation through subsurface chemistry.

Abstract
Advanced catalysts are crucial for a wide range of chemical, pharmaceutical, energy, and environmental applications. They can reduce energy barriers and increase reaction rates for desirable transformations, making many critical large-scale processes feasible, eco-friendly, energy-efficient, and affordable. Advances in nanotechnology have ushered in a new era for heterogeneous catalysis. Nanoscale catalytic materials are known to surpass their conventional macro-sized counterparts in performance and precision, owing it to their ultra-high surface activities and unique size-dependent quantum properties. In water treatment, nanocatalysts can offer significant promise for novel and ecofriendly pollutant degradation technologies that can be tailored for customer-specific needs. In particular, nano-palladium catalysts have shown promise in degrading larger molecules, making them attractive for mitigating emerging contaminants. However, the applicability of nanomaterials, including nanocatalysts, in practical deployable and ecofriendly devices, is severely limited due to their easy proliferation into the service environment, which raises concerns of toxicity, material retrieval, reusability, and related cost and safety issues. To overcome this limitation, matrix-supported hybrid nanostructures, where nanocatalysts are integrated with other solids for stability and durability, can be employed. The interaction between the support and nanocatalysts becomes important in these materials and needs to be well investigated to better understand their physical, chemical, and catalytic behavior. This review paper presents an overview of recent studies on matrix-supported Pd-nanocatalysts and highlights some of the novel emerging concepts. The focus is on suitable approaches to integrate nanocatalysts in water treatment applications to mitigate emerging contaminants including halogenated molecules. The state-of-the-art supports for palladium nanocatalysts that can be deployed in water treatment systems are reviewed. In addition, research opportunities are emphasized to design robust, reusable, and ecofriendly nanocatalyst architecture.

Abstract
Highly chemo- and regioselective semihydrogenation of alkynes is significant and challenging for the synthesis of functionalized alkenes. Here, a sequential self-template method is used to synthesize amorphous palladium sulfide nanocapsules (PdSx ANCs), which enables electrocatalytic semihydrogenation of terminal alkynes in H2O with excellent tolerance to easily reducible groups (e.g., C-I/Br/Cl, C═O) and the metal center deactivating skeletons (e.g., quinolyl, carboxyl, and nitrile). Mechanistic studies demonstrate that specific σ-alkynyl adsorption via terminal carbon and negligible alkene adsorption on isolated Pd2+ sites ensure successful synthesis of various alkenes with outstanding time-irrelevant selectivity in a wide potential range. The key hydrogen and carbon radical intermediates are validated by electron paramagnetic resonance and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Gram-scale synthesis of 4-bromostyrene and expedient preparation of deuterated alkene precursors and drugs with D2O show promising applications. Impressively, PdSx ANCs can be applied to the prevailing thermocatalytic semihydrogenation of functionalized alkyne using H2.

Abstract
Heteroatoms doped into the subsurface of transition metals play a vital role in heterogeneous catalysis via either expressing surface structures or even directly participating in the reaction. Herein, DFT calculations and microkinetic modeling are implemented to examine C2H2 selective hydrogenation over heteroatom (H, B, C, N, or P)-doped Cu(111) and Cu(211) subsurfaces, which are compared with pure Cu(111) and Cu(211) to unravel the role of subsurface chemistry in tuning the surface structure and further regulating catalytic performance. Our results indicate that the catalytic performance toward C2H2 selective hydrogenation is closely related to the type of doped subsurface heteroatom and the Cu surface coordination environment, which can be attributed to the simultaneous change of Cu surface geometric and electronic structures. Catalytic performance improvement over the heteroatom-doped Cu(111) is generally better than that over the doped Cu(211); especially, B- or N-doped Cu(111) has excellent C2H4 activity and selectivity and greatly inhibits green oil. For the heteroatom-doped Cu(211), better performance is only obtained on P-Cu(211), which is still lower than the B- and N-doped Cu(111). The subsurface heteroatom doping should focus on high-coordination Cu(111) instead of low-coordination Cu(211). AIMD simulations verified the thermal stability of B-Cu(111) and N-Cu(111); both were screened out to be the most suitable catalysts toward C2H2 hydrogenation. This work clearly unravels the role of subsurface chemistry in heterogeneous catalysis and contributes to the rational design of high-performance metal catalysts by tuning surface structures with the heteroatom into the subsurface.

Abstract
![]()
Catalytic semihydrogenation of internal alkynes using
H2 is an attractive atom-economical route to various alkenes,
and its
stereocontrol has received widespread attention, both in homogeneous
and heterogeneous catalyses. Herein, a novel strategy is introduced,
whereby a poisoning catalytic thiol is employed as a reversible inhibitor
of a ruthenium catalyst, resulting in a controllable H2-based semihydrogenation of internal alkynes. Both (E)- and (Z)-alkenes were obtained efficiently and
highly selectively, under very mild conditions, using a single homogeneous
acridine-based ruthenium pincer catalyst. Mechanistic studies indicate
that the (Z)-alkene is the reaction intermediate
leading to the (E)-alkene and that the addition of
a catalytic amount of bidentate thiol impedes the Z/E isomerization step by forming stable ruthenium
thiol(ate) complexes, while still allowing the main hydrogenation
reaction to proceed. Thus, the absence or presence of catalytic thiol
controls the stereoselectivity of this alkyne semihydrogenation, affording
either the (E)-isomer as the final product or halting
the reaction at the (Z)-intermediate. The developed
system, which is also applied to the controllable isomerization of
a terminal alkene, demonstrates how metal catalysis with switchable
selectivity can be achieved by reversible inhibition of the catalyst
with a simple auxiliary additive.

Abstract
Amorphous alumina overcoats generated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) have been shown to improve the selectivity and durability of supported metal catalysts in many reactions. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the enhanced catalytic performance, but the accessibilities of reactants through the amorphous overcoats remain elusive, which is crucial for understanding reaction mechanisms. Here, we show that an AlOx ALD overcoat is able to improve the alkene product selectivity of a supported Pd catalyst in acetylene (C2H2) hydrogenation. We further demonstrate that the AlOx ALD overcoat blocks the access of C2H2 (kinetic diameter of 0.33 nm), O2 (0.35 nm), and CO (0.38 nm) but allows H2 (0.29 nm) to access Pd surfaces. A H-D exchange experiment suggests that H2 might dissociate heterolytically at the Pd-AlOx interface. These findings are in favor of a hydrogen spillover mechanism.

Abstract
Pd catalysts are widely used in alkynol semi-hydrogenation. However, due to the existence of scaling relationships of adsorption energies between the key adsorbed species, the increase in conversion is frequently accompanied by side reactions, thereby reducing the selectivity to alkenols. We report that the simultaneous increase in alkenol selectivity and alkynol conversion is achieved by manipulating interstitial atoms including B, P, C, S and N in Pd catalysts. A negative linear relationship is observed between the activation entropies of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol and 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol which is highly related to the filling of d-orbital of Pd catalysts by the modification of p-block elements. A catalyst co-modified by B and C atoms has the maximum d charge of Pd that achieves a 17-fold increase in the turn-over frequency values compared to the Lindlar catalysts in the semi-hydrogenation of 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol. When the conversion is close to 100%, the selectivity can be as high as 95%. Circumventing the linear scaling relationship in the semi-hydrogenation is challenging. Here the authors report a method for breaking the scaling relationships using ordered mesoporous carbon-supported Pd nanocatalysts with d-electron gain by p-block atoms occupying interstitial sites in the lattice as a greener alternative to Lindlar catalysts for the selective hydrogenation of alkynols.

Abstract
Efficient electrocatalytic alkyne semihydrogenation with potential/time-independent selectivity and Faradaic efficiency (FE) is vital for industrial alkene productions. Here, sulfur-tuned effects and field-induced reagent concentration are proposed to promote electrocatalytic alkyne semihydrogenation. Density functional theory calculations reveal that bulk sulfur anions intrinsically weaken alkene adsorption, and surface thiolates lower the activation energy of water and the Gibbs free energy for H* formation. The finite element method shows high-curvature structured catalyst concentrates K+ by enhancing electric field at the tips, accelerating more H* formation from water electrolysis via sulfur anion-hydrated cation networks, and promoting alkyne transformations. So, self-supported Pd nanotips with sulfur modifiers are developed for electrochemical alkyne semihydrogenation with up to 97% conversion yield, 96% selectivity, 75% FE, and a reaction rate of 465.6 mmol m-2 hour-1. Wide potential window and time irrelevance for high alkene selectivity, good universality, and easy access to deuterated alkenes highlight the promising potential.

Abstract
Palladium (Pd)-based nanomaterials have been identified as potential candidates for various types of electrocatalytic reaction, but most of them typically exhibit unsatisfactory performances. Recently, extensive theoretical and experimental studies have demonstrated that the interstitial/substitutional modification of Pd-based nanomaterials with nonmetallic atoms (H, B, C, N, P, S) has a significant impact on their electronic structure and thus leads to the rapid development of one kind of promising catalyst for various electrochemical reactions. Considering the remarkable progress in this area, we highlight the most recent progress regarding the innovative synthesis and advanced characterization methods of nonmetallic atom-doped Pd-based nanomaterials and provide insights into their electrochemical applications. What's more, the unique structure- and component-dependent electrochemical performance and the underlying mechanisms are also discussed. Furthermore, a brief conclusion about the recent progress achieved in this field as well as future perspectives and challenges are provided.
