Synthesis of core@shell catalysts guided by Tammann temperature

The authors report a synthetic strategy to create core@shell catalysts using strong metal-support interactions and low-Tammann-temperature compounds. The resulting materials are highly stable and may be useful in industrial applications.

MoS₂ monolayer catalyst doped with isolated Co atoms for the hydrodeoxygenation reaction

Converting oxygen-rich biomass into fuels requires the removal of oxygen groups through hydrodeoxygenation. MoS₂ monolayer sheets decorated with isolated Co atoms bound to sulfur vacancies in the basal plane have now been synthesized that exhibit superior catalytic activity, selectivity and stability for the hydrodeoxygenation of 4-methylphenol to toluene when compared to conventionally prepared materials.

Pure-water-fed, electrocatalytic CO₂ reduction to ethylene beyond 1,000 h stability at 10 A

The alkali-metal electrolytes often used in electrocatalytic CO₂ reduction can lead to problematic carbonate formation and salt precipitation. Here, the authors demonstrate a scaled-up system for CO₂ reduction that uses both anion-exchange and proton-exchange membranes, allowing alkali-cation-free water to be used as a feed, with resulting stable operation.

Hydrogen radical-boosted electrocatalytic CO₂ reduction using Ni-partnered heteroatomic pairs

Commercially viable catalytic CO₂ electroreduction to CO would enable many green technologies, yet it is impeded by the initial hydrogenation step of CO₂. Here, the authors report Ni-Cd dual atom catalysts with complementary properties of favorable adsorption of CO₂ and H to overcome this barrier.

Strain enhances the activity of molecular electrocatalysts via carbon nanotube supports

While strain engineering via support modification is a powerful strategy to tune catalytic properties, it is complex to control for immobilized molecular complexes. Now the curvature of carbon nanotubes is leveraged to induce strain to metal phthalocyanine complexes and boost their electrocatalytic activity

Interstitial modification of palladium nanoparticles with boron atoms as a green catalyst for selective hydrogenation

Lindlar catalysts are widely used for partial hydrogenation of alkynes, however they can be somewhat limited by toxicity of lead and low selectivity. Here, the authors report that the modification of palladium nanoparticles with boron atoms in the interstitial sites yields selective hydrogenation catalysts.
