Highly Active Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) Catalysts Formed by Energetic Pt n Cluster Deposition: Deposition Dynamics and the HER Mechanism

Mass-selected Pt n + (n ≤ 7) were deposited at variable energies on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), creating highly active hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts. HER mass activities were ~2 to >10 times higher than those for the surface atoms in bulk Pt and for Pt n deposited on several other supports. Thus, high activity reflects the Pt-C structures formed by energetic Pt n -HOPG impacts, in addition to high Pt surface availability. The Pt n /HOPG electrodes were probed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, low energy ion scattering, and electron microscopy. Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) was used to simulate Pt n - HOPG impacts, revealing the types of structures formed at different energies, then DFT was used to probe their most important HER pathways. For low deposition energies, the Pt n deposit onto the HOPG surface with sub-unit sticking probability, aggregating at defects. With increasing deposition energy, the sticking probability initially decreases, then rises to unity as subplantation and defect creation allow formation of strongly bonded platinum-carbon structures. Barriers for HER on these structures were found to be low and weakly dependent on Pt n size, consistent with experiment. The activities were highest for small covalently-bonded Pt-C structures created at high deposition energies. The larger aggregated structures formed at low energies were less active, but still substantially better than the bulk Pt surface monolayer. The catalysts were stable in repeated potential cycling at reducing potentials, but electrodes containing subplanted Pt became more active when scanned to oxidizing potentials, due to emergence of subplanted Pt onto the surface.

Ensembles of Metastable States Govern Heterogeneous Catalysis on Dynamic Interfaces

Heterogeneous catalysis is at the heart of chemical industry. Being able to tune and design efficient catalysts for processes of interest is of an utmost importance, and for this, the molecular-level understanding of heterogeneous catalysts is the first step, and indeed a prime focus of the modern catalysis research. For a long time, a single most thermodynamically stable structure of the catalytic interface attained in reaction conditions had been envisioned as the reactive phase. However, some catalytic interfaces continue to undergo structural dynamics in the steady state, triggered by high temperatures, pressures, and binding and changing reagents. Among particularly dynamic interfaces are such widely-used catalysts as crystalline and amorphous surfaced supporting (sub-)nano metallic clusters. Recently, it became clear that this dynamic fluxionality causes the supported clusters to populate many distinct structural and stoichiometric states in catalytic conditions. Hence, the catalytic interface should be viewed as an evolving statistical ensemble of many (not one) structures. As such, every member in the ensemble contributes to the properties of the catalyst differently, and in proportion to its probability to be populated. This new notion flips the established paradigm and calls for new theory, modeling approaches, operando measurements, and updated design strategies. The statistical ensemble nature of surface-supported sub-nano cluster catalysts can be exemplified by oxide-supported and adsorbate-covered Pt, Pd, Cu, CuPd clusters, catalytic toward oxidative and non-oxidative dehydrogenation. They have access to a variety of 3D and quasi-2D shapes. The compositions of their thermal ensembles are dependent on the cluster size, leading to size-specific catalytic activities and the famous “every atom counts” phenomenon. The support and adsorbates affect catalyst structures, and state of the reacting species causes the ensemble to change in every reaction intermediate. The most stable member of the ensemble dominates the thermodynamic properties of the corresponding intermediate, whereas the kinetics can be determined by more active but less populated metastable catalyst states, and that suggests that many earlier studies might have overlooked the actual active sites. Both effects depend on the relative time-scales of catalyst restructuring and reaction dynamics. The catalyst may routinely operate off-equilibrium. Ensemble phenomena lead to surprising exceptions from established rules of catalysis, such as scaling relations, and Arrhenius behavior. Catalyst deactivation is also an ensemble property, and its extent of mitigation can be predicted through the new paradigm. These findings were enabled by advances in theory, such as global optimization and subsequent utilization of multiple local minima, and pathways sampling, as well as operando catalyst characterization. The fact that the per-site and per-species resolution is needed for the description and predicting of catalyst properties gives theory the central role in catalysis research, as most experiments provide ensemble-average information and cannot detect the crucial minority species that may be responsible for the catalytic activity.

Engineering catalyst supports to stabilize PdO x two-dimensional rafts for water-tolerant methane oxidation

The treatment of emissions from natural gas engines is an important area of research since methane is a potent greenhouse gas. The benchmark catalysts, based on Pd, still face challenges such as water poisoning and long-term stability. In this work, we report an approach for catalyst synthesis that relies on the trapping of metal single atoms on the support surface, in thermally stable form, to modify the nature of further deposited metal/metal oxide. By anchoring Pt ions on a catalyst support we can tailor the morphology of the deposited phase. In particular, two-dimensional (2D) rafts of PdO x are formed, resulting in higher reaction rates and improved water tolerance during methane oxidation. The results show that modifying the support by trapping single atoms could provide an important addition to the toolkit of catalyst designers for controlling the nucleation and growth of metal and metal oxide clusters in heterogeneous catalysts.

Heterogeneous Supramolecular Catalysis through Immobilization of Anionic M 4 L 6 Assemblies on Cationic Polymers

Although most of the currently developed supramolecular catalysts that emulate enzymatic reactivity with unique selectivity and activity through specific host-guest interactions work under homogeneous conditions, enzymes in nature can operate under heterogeneous conditions as membrane-bound enzymes. In order to develop such a heterogeneous system, an immobilized chiral supramolecular cluster Ga 4 1 6 ( 2 ) was introduced into cross-linked polymers with cationic functionalities. These heterogeneous supramolecular catalysts were used in aza-Prins and aza-Cope reactions and successfully applied to continuous-flow reactions. Additionally, they showed high durability and maintained high turnovers for long periods of time. In sharp contrast to the majority of examples of heterogenized homogeneous catalysts, the newly developed catalysts showed enhanced activity and robustness compared to those exhibited by the corresponding soluble cluster catalyst. An enantioenriched cluster was also immobilized to enable asymmetric catalysis, and activity and enantioselectivity of the supported chiral catalyst were maintained during recovery and reuse experiments and under a continuous-flow process. Significantly, the structure of the ammonium cations in the polymers affected stability, reactivity, and enantioselectivity, which is consistent with the hypothesis that the cationic moieties in the polymer support interact with cluster as an exohedral protecting shell, thereby influencing their catalytic performance.

Adsorbate-Induced Adatom Formation on Lithium, Iron, Cobalt, Ruthenium, and Rhenium Surfaces

Recent experimental and theoretical studies have demonstrated the reaction-driven metal–metal bond breaking in metal catalytic surfaces even under relatively mild conditions. Here, we construct a density functional theory (DFT) database for the adsorbate-induced adatom formation energy on the close-packed facets of three hexagonal close-packed metals (Co, Ru, and Re) and two body-centered cubic metals (Li and Fe), where the source of the ejected metal atom is either a step edge or a close-packed surface. For Co and Ru, we also considered their metastable face-centered cubic structures. We studied 18 different adsorbates relevant to catalytic processes and predicted noticeably easier adatom formation on Li and Fe compared to the other three metals. The NH 3 - and CO-induced adatom formation on Fe(110) is possible at room temperature, a result relevant to NH 3 synthesis and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, respectively. There also exist other systems with favorable adsorbate effects for adatom formation relevant to catalytic processes at elevated temperatures (500–700 K). Our results offer insight into the reaction-driven formation of metal clusters, which could play the role of active sites in reactions catalyzed by Li, Fe, Co, Ru, and Re catalysts.

Gas-phase production of single-walled carbon nanotubes from carbon monoxide: a review of the hipco process

The latest process for producing large quantities of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) to emerge from the Rice University, dubbed HiPco, is living up to its promise. The current production rates approach 450 mg/h (or 10 g/day), and nanotubes typically have no more than 7 mol % of iron impurities. Second-generation HiPco apparatus can run continuously for 7-10 days at a time. In the HiPco process nanotubes grow in high-pressure, high-temperature flowing CO on catalytic clusters of iron. Catalyst is formed in situ by thermal decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl, which is delivered intact within a cold CO flow and then rapidly mixed with hot CO in the reaction zone. Upon heating, the Fe(CO)5 decomposes into atoms that condense into larger clusters. SWNTs nucleate and grow on these particles in the gas phase via CO disproportionation: CO + CO --> CO2 + C (SWNT), catalyzed by the Fe surface. The concentration of CO2 produced in this reaction is equal to that of carbon and can therefore serve as a useful real-time feedback parameter. It was used to study and optimize SWNT production as a function of temperature, pressure, and Fe(CO)5 concentration. The results of the parametric study are in agreement with current understanding of the nanotube formation mechanism.

Metal–support interactions in metal oxide-supported atomic, cluster, and nanoparticle catalysis

Supported metal catalysts are essential to a plethora of processes in the chemical industry. The overall performance of these catalysts depends strongly on the interaction of adsorbates at the atomic level, which can be manipulated and controlled by the different constituents of the active material (i.e., support and active metal). The description of catalyst activity and the relationship between active constituent and the support, or metal–support interactions (MSI), in heterogeneous (thermo)catalysts is a complex phenomenon with multivariate (dependent and independent) contributions that are difficult to disentangle, both experimentally and theoretically. So-called “strong metal–support interactions” have been reported for several decades and summarized in excellent review articles. However, in recent years, there has been a proliferation of new findings related to atomically dispersed metal sites, metal oxide defects, and, for example, the generation and evolution of MSI under reaction conditions, which has led to the designation of (sub)classifications of MSI deserving to be critically and systematically evaluated. These include dynamic restructuring under alternating redox and reaction conditions, adsorbate-induced MSI, and evidence of strong interactions in oxide-supported metal oxide catalysts. Here, we review recent literature on MSI in oxide-supported metal particles to provide an up-to-date understanding of the underlying physicochemical principles that dominate the observed effects in supported metal atomic, cluster, and nanoparticle catalysts. Critical evaluation of different subclassifications of MSI is provided, along with discussions on the formation mechanisms, theoretical and characterization advances, and tuning strategies to manipulate catalytic reaction performance. We also provide a perspective on the future of the field, and we discuss the analysis of different MSI effects on catalysis quantitatively.

Unconventional low temperature decomposition of a saturated hydrocarbon over atomically-dispersed titanium-aluminum-boron catalyst

Sonochemically-synthesized atomically-dispersed titanium-aluminum-boron nanopowder (TiAlB NP) exhibits a remarkable low-temperature catalytic activation of aliphatic C-H bonds at 750 K followed by C-C bond activation thus emerging as a potent low-cost alternative to expensive platinum group metals. Here, the model saturated hydrocarbon, exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (C10H16), undergoes catalytic decomposition on TiAlB NPs in a chemical microreactor to produce 1,3-cyclopentadiene (c-C5H6), cyclopentene (c-C5H8), and molecular hydrogen (H2) as detected in situ via isomer-selective, single-photon ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Extensive electronic structure theory calculations on model clusters of the catalyst decode a unique synergy among the atomic constituents of the catalyst and chemical bonding in this stepwise, retro Diels Alder reaction: Ti, although insensitive to C-H activation in its metallic state, initiates the catalysis via chemisorption of the hydrocarbon, adjacent B centers readily abstract hydrogen atoms and store them during the catalytic cycle, while Al stabilizes the catalyst structure yet providing space for critical docking sites for the departing hydrocarbons.

Ce IV 70 Oxosulfate Rings, Frameworks, Supramolecular Assembly, and Redox Activity**

Abstract M IV molecular oxo‐clusters (M=Zr, Hf, Ce, Th, U, Np, Pu) are prolific in bottoms‐up material design, catalysis, and elucidating reaction pathways in nature and in synthesis. Here we introduce Ce 70 , a wheel‐shaped oxo‐cluster, [Ce IV 70 (OH) 36 (O) 64 (SO 4 ) 60 (H 2 O) 10 ] 4− . Ce 70 crystallizes into intricate high pore volume frameworks with divalent transition metals and Ce‐monomer linkers. Eight crystal‐structures feature four framework types in which the Ce 70 ‐rings are linked as propellers, in offset‐stacks, in a tartan pattern, and as isolated rings. Small‐angle X‐ray scattering of Ce 70 dissolved in butylamine, with and without added cations (Ce IV , alkaline earths, Mn II ), shows the metals‘ differentiating roles in ring linking, leading to supramolecular assemblies. The large acidic pores and abundant terminal sulfates provide ion‐exchange behavior, demonstrated with U IV and Nd III . Frameworks featuring Ce III/IV ‐monomer linkers demonstrate both oxidation and reduction. This study opens the door to mixed‐metal, highly porous framework catalysts, and new clusters for metal‐organic framework design

Enhancing the Carbon Monoxide Oxidation Performance through Surface Defect Enrichment of Ceria-Based Supports for Platinum Catalyst

Effective synthesis and application of single-atom catalysts on supports lacking enough defects remain a significant challenge in environmental catalysis. Herein, we present a universal defect-enrichment strategy to increase the surface defects of CeO 2 -based supports through H 2 reduction pretreatment. The Pt catalysts supported by defective CeO 2 -based supports, including CeO 2 , CeZrO x , and CeO 2 /Al 2 O 3 (CA), exhibit much higher Pt dispersion and CO oxidation activity upon reduction activation compared to their counterpart catalysts without defect enrichment. Specifically, Pt is present as embedded single atoms on the CA support with enriched surface defects (CA-HD) based on which the highly active catalyst showing embedded Pt clusters (Pt C ) with the bottom layer of Pt atoms substituting the Ce cations in the CeO 2 surface lattice can be obtained through reduction activation. Embedded PtC can better facilitate CO adsorption and promote O 2 activation at Pt C –CeO 2 interfaces, thereby contributing to the superior low-temperature CO oxidation activity of the Pt/CA-HD catalyst after activation.

Theoretical Perspective on Operando Spectroscopy of Fluxional Nanocatalysts

Improvements in operando spectroscopy have enabled the catalysis community to investigate the dynamic nature of catalysts under operating conditions with increasing detail. Still, the highly dynamic nature of some catalysts, such as fluxional supported subnano clusters, presents a formidable challenge even for the most state-of-the-art techniques. Here, the reason is that such fluxional catalytic interfaces contain a variety of thermally accessible states. Operando spectroscopies used in catalysis generally fall into two categories: ensemble-based techniques, which provide spectra containing the signals of the entire ensemble of states of the catalyst and are not necessarily dominated by the most active species, and localized techniques, which provide atomistic-level information about the dynamics of active sites in a very small area, which might not include the most active species. Combining many different kinds of techniques can provide detailed insight; however, we propose that effective utilization of specific computational techniques and approaches within the fluxionality paradigm can fill the gap and enable atomistic characterization of the most relevant catalytic sites.

Differentiating supported platinum single atoms, clusters and nanoparticles by styrene hydrogenation

Supported metal catalysts often consist of metal sites ranging from nanoparticles to subnanometer clusters and single atoms. It remains a necessity to differentiate these sites to guide design of optimal catalysts. Here we report a simple method to assess the distribution of metal active sites in catalyst samples. The method takes the advantage of the structure sensitivity of styrene hydrogenation over titania supported platinum (Pt) catalysts with Pt aggregates varied from single atom to ~1.40 nm nanoparticles. The physicochemical properties were characterized by STEM, XPS, XANES, H2-TPR and CO-chemisorption measurements. The reactivity of Pt sites was quantified by styrene hydrogenation at ambient conditions. The nanometer-sized Pt clusters have significantly higher activity than Pt nanoparticles, sub-nanometer clusters or isolated single atoms. Additionally, the relationship between activity and structural/electronic properties of Pt sites influenced by particle sizes was discussed. Similar relationship was found in the carbon supported Pt catalysts.

Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Study of Pd Nucleation on a γ-Al 2 O 3 Surface

We perform ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) free energy simulations to investigate the stability and dynamics of dispersed Pd atoms and subnanometer clusters on γ-Al 2 O 3 . We consider nucleation for varying Pd loadings on dry γ-Al 2 O 3 (100), dry γ-Al 2 O 3 (110) and wet γ-Al 2 O 3 (110) and examine temperature, entropy and water coverage effects on the stability and dynamics of Pd clusters. At low Pd loading (1.07 Pd atoms/nm 2 on the (100) and 0.75 Pd/nm 2 on the (110)), association of the Pd atoms is thermodynamically unfavorable on the dry surfaces and almost thermoneutral on the wet (110) owing to water blocking of the AlIII defect sites. In agreement with past studies, the Pd atoms are quite mobile but the diffusion free energy barriers do not increase with the water coverage, as previously suggested, but rather remain similar in magnitude owing to translational entropy at finite temperatures. At these Pd loadings, oxidized Pd(II) atoms on the wet (110) surface are dispersed and immobile. At higher Pd loading (1.12 and 1.5 Pd atoms/nm 2 ) on the (110) surface, Pd 3 and Pd 4 clusters are thermodynamically very stable and form fast. At the 1.12 Pd atoms/nm 2 loading, the formation of the Pd 3 cluster is two orders of magnitude slower when the surface is hydroxylated as the system becomes somewhat trapped before the dinuclear cluster Pd 2 collides with a Pd atom.

Ultralow-Loading Pt/Zn Hybrid Cluster in Zeolite HZSM-5 for Efficient Dehydroaromatization

Minimizing Pt loading without sacrificing catalytic performance is critical, particularly for designing cost-efficient hydrocarbon transformation catalysts. Here, we show that ultralow-loading (0.001–0.05 wt %) Pt- and Zn-functionalized HZSM-5 catalysts, prepared through simple ion exchange and impregnation, are highly active and stable for light alkane dehydroaromatization (DHA). The specific activity of benzene, toluene, and xylene is up to 8.2 mol/g Pt /min (or 1592 min –1 ) over the 0.001 wt % Pt–Zn 2 /HZSM-5 catalyst during ethane DHA at 550 °C under atmospheric pressure. Additionally, such bimetallic Pt x –Zn y /HZSM-5 catalysts are highly stable in contrast to the monometallic Pt/HZSM-5 catalysts. The rate constant of deactivation (k deactiv ), according to the first-order generalized power law equation model, for the bimetallic catalysts is up to 120 times lower than that of the monometallic counterparts, depending on the Pt loading. In conclusion, this breakthrough is achieved through the formation of the [Pt 1 –Zn n ] δ+ hybrid cluster, instead of Pt 0 cluster–proton adducts, in the micropores of the ZSM-5 zeolite.

Catalytic C 2 H 2 synthesis via low temperature CO hydrogenation on defect-rich 2D-MoS 2 and 2D-MoS 2 decorated with Mo clusters

Rational design of novel catalytic materials used to synthesize storable fuels via the CO hydrogenation reaction has recently received considerable attention. In this work, defect poor and defect rich 2D-MoS 2 as well as 2D-MoS 2 decorated with Mo clusters are employed as catalysts for the generation of acetylene (C 2 H 2 ) via the CO hydrogenation reaction. Temperature programmed desorption is used to study the interaction of CO and H2 molecules with the MoS 2 surface as well as the formation of reaction products. The experiments indicate the presence of four CO adsorption sites below room temperature and a competitive adsorption between the CO and H 2 molecules. The investigations show that CO hydrogenation is not possible on defect poor MoS 2 at low temperatures. However, on defect rich 2D-MoS 2 , small amounts of C 2 H 2 are produced, which desorb from the surface at temperatures between 170 K and 250 K. A similar C 2 H 2 signal is detected from defect poor 2D-MoS 2 decorated with Mo clusters, which indicates that low coordinated Mo atoms on 2D-MoS 2 are responsible for the formation of C 2 H 2 . Density functional theory investigations are performed to explore possible adsorption sites of CO and understand the formation mechanism of C 2 H 2 on MoS 2 and Mo 7 /MoS 2 . The theoretical investigation indicates a strong binding of C 2 H 2 on the Mo sites of MoS 2 preventing the direct desorption of C 2 H 2 at low temperatures as observed experimentally. Instead, the theoretical results suggest that the experimental data are consistent with a mechanism in which CHO radical dimers lead to the formation of C 2 H 2 that presents an exothermic desorption.

Directing reaction pathways via in situ control of active site geometries in PdAu single-atom alloy catalysts

Abstract The atomic scale structure of the active sites in heterogeneous catalysts is central to their reactivity and selectivity. Therefore, understanding active site stability and evolution under different reaction conditions is key to the design of efficient and robust catalysts. Herein we describe theoretical calculations which predict that carbon monoxide can be used to stabilize different active site geometries in bimetallic alloys and then demonstrate experimentally that the same PdAu bimetallic catalyst can be transitioned between a single-atom alloy and a Pd cluster phase. Each state of the catalyst exhibits distinct selectivity for the dehydrogenation of ethanol reaction with the single-atom alloy phase exhibiting high selectivity to acetaldehyde and hydrogen versus a range of products from Pd clusters. First-principles based Monte Carlo calculations explain the origin of this active site ensemble size tuning effect, and this work serves as a demonstration of what should be a general phenomenon that enables in situ control over catalyst selectivity.
