  • Identifying proton transfer processes in catalytic reactions is a technically challenging task. Here, the authors employ operando nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to study the reaction mechanism and intermediates of the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, and to identify the proton sources.

  • Due to its stability nitrogen is often employed as an inert gas during catalytic reactions. Now, a study shows that N2 can act as promoter for the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation of p-cresol on supported ruthenium catalysts through the formation of hydrogenated nitrogen species acting as a source of protic hydrogen.

  • The current industrial ammonia synthesis relies on the Haber-Bosch process that is limited by the Brønsted–Evans–Polanyi relation. Here, the authors propose a new strategy that an anchored Fe3 on θ-Al2O3(010) surface serves as a heterogeneous single cluster catalyst for ammonia synthesis from first-principles calculations and microkinetic analysis.

  • The strength of electron-phonon coupling can be directly probed by Raman spectroscopy. Here, the authors use low-frequency Raman spectroscopy to unveil the existence of a strong cross-dimensional coupling between the bulk-like layer-breathing phonons in an hBN/WS2 heterostructure and the electrons localized within its few-layer WS2 constituent.
