| Catalytic reactions play an important role in industrial chemical transformations.The increasing energy crisis and environmental problems prompte scientists to develop more efficient catalyst systems in various fields.Nano-catalysts showed excellent catalytic performance due to their small particle size,high specific surface area,and abundant unsaturated surface atoms and attracted much attention.In-depth insight into the relationship between the fine structure and catalytic performance of nano-catalysts is crucial to the innovation of catalysts.In recent years,although nanotechnology has triggered great progress in catalyst synthesis and characterization,there is still a lack of function-oriented synthesis methods for nano-materials,characterization of fine structure at atomic scale,and in situ analytical methods for understanding catalytic mechanisms.In this paper,focusing on the most commonly used selective hydrogenation/oxidation reactions in catalysis,we have constructed a variety of advanced composite nano-materials by tailoring the composition and structure,developed a variety of surface state fine-regulation methods,and realized a great improvement in catalytic performance.On this basis,we established a typical structure-activity relationship model with the help of in-situ spectroscopy technology and density functional theory analysis,and elaborated the synergistic mechanism among different components.The main results are as follows:1.We prepared porous Ir Co dodecahedrons composed of a large number of ultra-nanoparticles by a top-down synthetic route.This synthesis method can realize the complete alloying of Ir and Co atoms at extremely low calcination temperature(200℃),which effectively broke the thermodynamic limitation of heterogeneous metallic alloying with large lattice differences.Benefiting from the special structure of Ir Co alloys,we constructed a light-driven,highly selective hydrogenation system using ammonia borane(AB)as the hydrogen source.The materials can completely convert 4-nitrostyrene(4-NS)within 15 min and show 97%selectivity for4-aminostyrene(4-AS).Besides,the TOF reached 50.25 h-1.Through theoretical research and experimental verification,we propose a light-driven hydrogen transfer reaction mechanism,and accurately describe the ultra-high catalytic performance of Ir Co alloys at the atomic scale.2.We synthesized Ag-Au NC@Ce O2 core-shell structure by a simple self-assembly method and explored its catalytic performance in cascade reactions.The results showed that core-shell structure has both glucose oxidation activity and peroxidase-like activity.And it showed excellent activity in the glucose oxidation cascade reaction,which provided a new idea for the design of the cascade reaction catalysts.Moreover,on the basis of the optimal reaction p H,we explored the linear regression equation between absorbance and glucose concentration,which makes it possible to detect glucose without enzyme.3.We designed a clean synthetic route,ultra-small Pd Ox particles were deposited in situ on the S1,and prepared Pd@Ce O2 core-shell-like structure(q-Pd@Ce O2/S1)by auto-redox reactions between reduced Ce3+and oxidized Pd Ox in solution.Repeated calcination and aging experiments show that the core-shell nanostructure can effectively prevent the internal Pd core from agglomerating.When used as a quinoline hydrogenation catalyst,q-Pd@Ce O2/S1 can achieve 100%conversion within 12 h,and the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline(py-THQ)selectivity is as high as 99%.4.We prepared Mo2N supported Pt single atom by developing a high-temperature reversing sintering process and achieved excellent reverse water gas shift reaction performance in CO2 hydrogenation.The CO formation rate of pre-prepared catalysts reached 257 mmol g-1cath-1,which was 1.6 times that of pure Mo2N,and the selectivity of CO kept above 93%.Besides,benefiting from the interaction between Pt atoms and Mo2N support,in situ characterization and theoretical studies showed that the doping of Pt atoms changed the free energy of O species binding to H2 in the rate determining reaction step,accelerated the redox cycle on the surface of Mo2N and promoted the rapid conversion of CO2 molecule. |
