Abstract
Tuning the electronic structure of single atom catalysts (SACs) is an effective strategy to promote the catalytic activity in peroxymonosulfate (PMS)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Herein, a series of Fe-based SACs with S1/2/3/4-coordination numbers on graphene were designed to regulate the electronic structural of SACs at molecular level, and their effects on PMS activation were investigated via density function theory (DFT). The calculation results demonstrate that the electron structure of the active center can be adjusted by coordination environment, which further affects the activation of PMS. Among the studied Fe-SX-C4-X catalysts, with the increase of the S coordination number, the electron density of the Fe-SX-C4-X active center was optimized. The active center of the Fe-S4-C0 catalyst has a largest positive charge density, exhibiting the highest number of electron transfer. It also has a lower kinetic energy barrier (0.28 eV) for PMS dissociation. Organic pollutant such as bisphenol A (BPA) can achieve stable adsorption on Fe-SX-C4-X catalysts, which is conducive to subsequent oxidation by radicals. The dual index ∆f(r) indicates that the para-carbon atom of the hydroxyl group on the benzene ring of BPA is vulnerable to radical attack. This study highlights a theoretical support and a certain guide for designing efficient SACs to activate PMS.

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysis is an important class of reactions in industrial production, especially in green chemical synthesis, and environmental and organic catalysis. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have emerged as promising candidates for heterogeneous catalysis, due to their outstanding catalytic activity, high selectivity, and maximum atomic utilization efficiency. The high specific surface energy of SACs, however, results in the migration and aggregation of isolated atoms under typical reaction conditions. The controllable preparation of highly efficient and stable SACs has been a serious challenge for applications. Herein, we summarize the recent progress in the precise synthesis of SACs and their different heterogeneous catalyses, especially involving the oxidation and reduction reactions of small organic molecules. At the end of this review, we also introduce the challenges confronted by single-atom materials in heterogeneous catalysis. This review aims to promote the generation of novel high-efficiency SACs by providing an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of the current development in this research field.

A "Pre-Division Metal Clusters" Strategy to Mediate Efficient Dual-Active Sites ORR Catalyst for Ultralong Rechargeable Zn-Air Battery. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202216950.

Abstract
To conquer the bottleneck of sluggish kinetics in cathodic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) of metal-air batteries, catalysts with dual-active centers have stood out. Here, a "pre-division metal clusters" strategy is firstly conceived to fabricate a N,S-dual doped honeycomb-like carbon matrix inlaid with CoN4 sites and wrapped Co2 P nanoclusters as dual-active centers (Co2 P/CoN4 @NSC-500). A crystalline {CoII 2 } coordination cluster divided by periphery second organic layers is well-designed to realize delocalized dispersion before calcination. The optimal Co2 P/CoN4 @NSC-500 executes excellent 4e- ORR activity surpassing the benchmark Pt/C. Theoretical calculation results reveal that the CoN4 sites and Co2 P nanoclusters can synergistically quicken the formation of *OOH on Co sites. The rechargeable Zn-air battery (ZAB) assembled by Co2 P/CoN4 @NSC-500 delivers ultralong cycling stability over 1742 hours (3484 cycles) under 5 mA cm-2 and can light up a 2.4 V LED bulb for ≈264 hours, evidencing the promising practical application potentials in portable devices.

Abstract
In recent years, single-atom catalysts (SACs) have received a significant amount of attention due to their high atomic utilization, low cost, high reaction activity, and selectivity for multiple catalytic reactions. Unfortunately, the high surface free energy of single atoms leads them easily migrated and aggregated. Therefore, support materials play an important role in the preparation and catalytic performance of SACs. Aiming at understanding the relationship between support materials and the catalytic performance of SACs, the support effects in SACs are introduced and reviewed herein. Moreover, special emphasis is placed on exploring the influence of the type and structure of supports on SAC catalytic performance through advanced characterization and theoretical research. Future research directions for support materials are also proposed, providing some insight into the design of SACs with high efficiency and high loading.

Abstract
Fine-tuning electronic structures of single-atom catalysts (SACs) plays a crucial role in harnessing their catalytic activities, yet challenges remain at a molecular scale in a controlled fashion. By tailoring the structure of graphdiyne (GDY) with electron-withdrawing/-donating groups, we show herein the electronic perturbation of Cu single-atom CO2 reduction catalysts in a molecular way. The elaborately introduced functional groups (-F, -H and -OMe) can regulate the valance state of Cuδ+ , which is found to be directly scaled with the selectivity of the electrochemical CO2 -to-CH4 conversion. An optimum CH4 Faradaic efficiency of 72.3 % was achieved over the Cu SAC on the F-substituted GDY. In situ spectroscopic studies and theoretical calculations revealed that the positive Cuδ+ centers adjusted by the electron-withdrawing group decrease the pKa of adsorbed H2 O, promoting the hydrogenation of intermediates toward the CH4 production. Our strategy paves the way for precise electronic perturbation of SACs toward efficient electrocatalysis.

Abstract
Not only high efficiency but also high selectivity of the electrocatalysts is crucial for high-performance, low-cost, and sustainable energy storage applications. Herein, we systematically investigate the edge effect of carbon-supported single-atom catalysts (SACs) on oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) pathways (two-electron (2 e- ) or four-electron (4 e- )) and conclude that the 2 e- -ORR proceeding over the edge-hosted atomic Co-N4 sites is more favorable than the basal-plane-hosted ones. As such, we have successfully synthesized and tuned Co-SACs with different edge-to-bulk ratios. The as-prepared edge-rich Co-N/HPC catalyst exhibits excellent 2 e- -ORR performance with a remarkable selectivity of ≈95 % in a wide potential range. Furthermore, we also find that oxygen functional groups could saturate the graphitic carbon edges under the ORR operation and further promote electrocatalytic performance. These findings on the structure-property relationship in SACs offer a promising direction for large-scale and low-cost electrochemical H2 O2 production via the 2 e- -ORR.

Abstract
Single‐atom catalysts (SACs), as promising alternatives to Pt‐based catalysts, suffer from the limited choice of center metals and low single‐atom loading. Here, we report a pentacoordinated Zr‐based SAC with nontrivial axial O ligands (denoted O−Zr−N−C) for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The O ligand downshifts the d‐band center of Zr and confers Zr sites with stable local structure and proper adsorption capability for intermediates. Consequently, the ORR performance of O−Zr−N−C prominently surpasses that of commercial Pt/C, achieving a half‐wave potential of 0.91 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode and outstanding durability (92 % current retention after 130‐hour operation). Moreover, the Zr site shows good resistance towards aggregation, enabling the synthesis of Zr‐based SAC with high loading (9.1 wt%). With the high‐loading catalyst, the zinc‐air battery (ZAB) delivers a record‐high power density of 324 mW cm−2 among those of SAC‐based ZABs.

Abstract
Manipulating the coordination environment of the active center via anion modulation to reveal tailored activity and selectivity has been widely achieved, especially for carbon-based single-atom site catalysts (SACs). However, tuning ligand fields of the active center by single-site metal cation regulation and identifying the effects on the resulting electronic configuration is seldom explored. Herein, we propose a single-site Ru cation coordination strategy to engineer the electronic properties by constructing a Ru/LiCoO2 SAC with atomically dispersed Ru-Co pair sites. Benefitting from the strong electronic coupling between Ru and Co sites, the catalyst possesses an enhanced electrical conductivity and achieves near-optimal oxygen adsorption energies. Therefore, the optimized catalyst delivers superior oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity with low overpotential, the high mass activity of 1000 A goxide -1 at a small overpotential of 335 mV, and excellent long-term stability. It also exhibits rapid kinetics with superior rate capability and outstanding durability in a zinc-air battery.

Abstract
Fe-N-C electrocatalysts have been demonstrated to be the most promising substitutes for benchmark Pt/C catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, we report that N-doped carbon materials with trace amounts of iron (0-0.08 wt. %) show excellent ORR activity and durability comparable and even superior to those of Pt/C in both alkaline and acidic media without significant contribution by the metal sites. Such an N-doped carbon (denoted as N-HPCs) features a hollow and hierarchically porous architecture, and more importantly, a noncovalently bonded N-deficient/N-rich heterostructure providing the active sites for oxygen adsorption and activation owing to the efficient electron transfer between the layers. The primary Zn-air battery using N-HPCs as the cathode delivers a much higher power density of 158 mW cm-2 , and the maximum power density in the H2 -O2 fuel cell reaches 486 mW cm-2 , which is comparable to and even better than those using conventional Fe-N-C catalysts at cathodes.

A Universal Single-Atom Coating Strategy Based on Tannic Acid Chemistry for Multifunctional Heterogeneous Catalysis. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2022; 61:e202200465.

Abstract
Here, we report a universal single-atom coating (SAC) strategy by taking advantage of the rich chemistry of tannic acid (TA). TA units not only self-assemble into a cross-linked porous polyphenolic framework, but also can grip on different substates via multiple binding modes. Benefiting from the diverse chelating ability of TA, a series of mono-, and bi-metallic SACs can be formed on substrates of different materials (e. g., carbon, SiO2 , TiO2 , MoS2 ), dimensions (0D-3D) and sizes (50 nm-5 cm). By contrast, uniform SAC cannot be achieved using common approaches such as pyrolysis of metal-dopamine complexes or metal-organic frameworks. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, two Co SACs immobilized on graphene and TiO2 were prepared. The former one shows six-fold higher mass activity than Pt/C toward oxygen reduction. The latter one displays outstanding photocatalytic activity owing to the high activity of the single atoms and the formation of the single-atom coating-TiO2 heterojunction.

Abstract
Herein, a novel dual single-atom catalyst comprising adjacent Fe-N4 and Mn-N4 sites on 2D ultrathin N-doped carbon nanosheets with porous structure (FeMn-DSAC) was constructed as the cathode for a flexible low-temperature Zn-air battery (ZAB). FeMn-DSAC exhibits remarkable bifunctional activities for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Control experiments and density functional theory calculations reveal that the catalytic activity arises from the cooperative effect of the Fe/Mn dual-sites aiding *OOH dissociation as well as the porous 2D nanosheet structure promoting active sits exposure and mass transfer during the reaction process. The excellent bifunctional activity of FeMn-DSAC enables the ZAB to operate efficiently at ultra-low temperature of -40 °C, delivering 30 mW cm-2 peak power density and retaining up to 86 % specific capacity from the room temperature counterpart.

Abstract
The in-depth understanding of local atomic environment-property relationships of p-block metal single-atom catalysts toward the 2 e- oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) has rarely been reported. Here, guided by first-principles calculations, we develop a heteroatom-modified In-based metal-organic framework-assisted approach to accurately synthesize an optimal catalyst, in which single In atoms are anchored by combined N,S-dual first coordination and B second coordination supported by the hollow carbon rods (In SAs/NSBC). The In SAs/NSBC catalyst exhibits a high H2 O2 selectivity of above 95 % in a wide range of pH. Furthermore, the In SAs/NSBC-modified natural air diffusion electrode exhibits an unprecedented production rate of 6.49 mol peroxide gcatalyst -1 h-1 in 0.1 M KOH electrolyte and 6.71 mol peroxide gcatalyst -1 h-1 in 0.1 M PBS electrolyte. This strategy enables the design of next-generation high-performance single-atom materials, and provides practical guidance for H2 O2 electrosynthesis.

Abstract
Constructing monodispersed metal sites in heterocatalysis is an efficient strategy to boost their catalytic performance. Herein, a new strategy using monodispersed metal sites to tailor Pt-based nanocatalysts is addressed by engineering unconventional p-d orbital hybridization. Thus, monodispersed Ga on Pt3 Mn nanocrystals (Ga-O-Pt3 Mn) with high-indexed facets was constructed for the first time to drive ethanol electrooxidation reaction (EOR). Strikingly, the Ga-O-Pt3 Mn nanocatalyst shows an enhanced EOR performance with achieving 8.41 times of specific activity than that of Pt/C. The electrochemical in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results and theoretical calculations disclose that the Ga-O-Pt3 Mn nanocatalyst featuring an unconventional p-d orbital hybridization not only promote the C-C bond-breaking and rapid oxidation of -OH of ethanol, but also inhibit the generation of poisonous CO intermediate species. This work discloses a promising strategy to construct a novel nanocatalysts tailored by monodispersed metal site as efficient fuel cell catalysts.

Abstract
Developing affordable and efficient electrocatalysts as precious metal alternatives toward the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucially essential for the substantial progress of sustainable H2 energy-related technologies. The dual manipulation of coordination chemistry and geometric configuration for single-atom catalysts (SACs) has emerged as a powerful strategy to surmount the thermodynamic and kinetic dilemmas for high-efficiency electrocatalysis. We herein rationally designed N-doped multichannel carbon nanofibers supporting atomically dispersed Mo sites coordinated with C, N, and O triple components (labeled as Mo@NMCNFs hereafter) as a superior HER electrocatalyst. Systematic characterizations revealed that the local coordination microenvironment of Mo is determined to be a Mo-O1N1C2 moiety, which was theoretically probed to be the energetically favorable configuration for H intermediate adsorption by density functional theory calculations. Structurally, the multichannel porous carbon nanofibers with open ends could effectively enlarge the exposure of active sites, facilitate mass diffusion/charge transfer, and accelerate H2 release, leading to promoted reaction kinetics. Consequently, the optimized Mo@NMCNFs exhibited superior Pt-like HER performance in 0.5 M H2SO4 electrolyte with an overpotential of 66 mV at 10 mA cm-2, a Tafel slope of 48.9 mV dec-1, and excellent stability, outperforming a vast majority of the previously reported nonprecious HER electrocatalysts. The concept of both geometric and electronic engineering of SACs in this work may provide guidance for the design of high-efficiency molecule-like heterogeneous catalysts for a myriad of energy technologies.

Abstract
Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity can be effectively tuned by modulating the electron configuration and optimizing the chemical bonds. Herein, a general strategy to optimize the activity of metal single-atom is achieved by the decoration of metal clusters via a coating-pyrolysis-etching route. In this unique structure, the metal clusters are able to induce electron redistribution and modulate M-N species bond lengths. As a result, the M-ACSA@NC exhibits superior ORR activity compared with the nanoparticles-decorated counterparts. The performance enhancement is attributed to the optimized intermediates desorption benefiting from the unique electronic configuration. Theoretical analysis reinforces the significant roles of metal clusters by correlating the ORR activity with clusters induced charge transfer. As a proof-of-concept, various metal-air batteries assembled with the Fe-ACSA@NC deliver remarkable power densities and capacities. This strategy is an effective and universal technique for electron modulation of M-N-C, which shows great potential in application of energy storage devices.

Abstract
Single atom catalysts (SACs) have received a great deal of attention due to their extremely high active site utilization and superior activities. The exploration of metal SACs has been carried out by screening the elemental periodic table from first-row to second-row, and even third-row transition metals. However, Re SACs have not been reported, even if Re metal sites also play essential roles in catalyzing many important reactions. The construction of Re SACs may maximize Re catalytic sites and provide new Re active sites for higher activity. Herein, we used 1,10-phenanthroline to complex Re cations on carbon black, followed by heat treatment to obtain Re SAC. The Re SAC exhibited an oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) half-wave potential of 0.72 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) in 0.1 M KOH, superior to Re nanoparticles catalyst (0.67 V vs. RHE). Re SAC exhibited better stability at 0.5 V vs. RHE than Pt/C, showing potential as a new electrocatalyst for ORR.

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) into chemicals and fuels has recently attracted much interest, but normally suffers from a high overpotential and low selectivity. In this work, single P atoms were introduced into a N-doped carbon supported single Fe atom catalyst (Fe-SAC/NPC) mainly in the form of P-C bonds for CO2 electroreduction to CO in an aqueous solution. This catalyst exhibited a CO Faradaic efficiency of ≈97 % at a low overpotential of 320 mV, and a Tafel slope of only 59 mV dec-1 , comparable to state-of-the-art gold catalysts. Experimental analysis combined with DFT calculations suggested that single P atom in high coordination shells (n≥3), in particular the third coordination shell of Fe center enhanced the electronic localization of Fe, which improved the stabilization of the key *COOH intermediate on Fe, leading to superior CO2 electrochemical reduction performance at low overpotentials.

Abstract
Achieving highly selective acetylene semi-hydrogenation in an ethylene-rich gas stream is of great industrial importance. Herein, we construct isolated single Pd atom in a polyoxometalate-based metal-organic framework (POMOF). The unique internal environment allows this POMOF to separate acetylene from acetylene/ethylene gas mixtures and confine it close to the single Pd atom. After semi-hydrogenation, the resulting ethylene is preferentially discharged from the pores, achieving a selectivity of 92.6 %. First-principles simulations reveal that the adsorbed acetylene/ethylene molecules form hydrogen bond networks with oxygen atoms of SiW12 O40 4- and create dynamic confinement regions, which preferentially release the produced ethylene. Besides, at the Pd site, the over-hydrogenation of ethylene exhibits a higher reaction energy barrier than the semi-hydrogenation of acetylene. The combined advantages of POMOF and single Pd atom provides an effective approach for the regulation of semi-hydrogenation selectivity.

Abstract
The modulation effect has been widely investigated to tune the electronic state of single-atomic M-N-C catalysts to enhance the activity of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, the in-depth study of modulation effect is rarely reported for the isolated dual-atomic metal sites. Now, the catalytic activities of Fe-N4 moiety can be enhanced by the adjacent Pt-N4 moiety through the modulation effect, in which the Pt-N4 acts as the modulator to tune the 3d electronic orbitals of Fe-N4 active site and optimize ORR activity. Inspired by this principle, we design and synthesize the electrocatalyst that comprises isolated Fe-N4 /Pt-N4 moieties dispersed in the nitrogen-doped carbon matrix (Fe-N4 /Pt-N4 @NC) and exhibits a half-wave potential of 0.93 V vs. RHE and negligible activity degradation (ΔE1/2 =8 mV) after 10000 cycles in 0.1 M KOH. We also demonstrate that the modulation effect is not effective for optimizing the ORR performances of Co-N4 /Pt-N4 and Mn-N4 /Pt-N4 systems.

Abstract
It is still of great difficulty to develop the non-platinum catalyst with high catalytic efficiency towards hydrogen evolution reaction via the strategies till now. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the new methods of catalyst designing. Here, we put forward the catalyst designed by the electronic metal-support interaction (EMSI), which is demonstrated to be a reliable strategy to find out the high-efficiency catalyst. We carried out the density functional theory calculation first to design the proper EMSI of the catalyst. We applied the model of M1-M2-X (X=C, N, O) during the calculation. Among the catalysts we chose, the EMSI of Rh1TiC, with the active sites of Rh1-Ti2C2, is found to be the most proper one for HER. The electrochemical experiment further demonstrated the feasibility of the EMSI strategy. The single atomic site catalyst of Rh1-TiC exhibits higher catalytic efficiency than that of state-of-art Pt/C. It achieves a small overpotential of 22 mV and 86 mV at the at the current density of 10 mA cm-2 and 100 mA cm-2 in acid media, with a Tafel slope of 25 mV dec-1 and a mass activity of 54403.9 mA cm-2 mgRh -1 (vs. 192.2 mA cm-2 mgPt -1 of Pt/C). Besides, it also shows appealing advantage in energy saving compared with Pt/C (≈20 % electricity consuming decrease at 2 kA m-2 ) Therefore, we believe that the strategy of regulating EMSI can act as a possible way for achieving the high catalytic efficiency on the next step of SACs.

Abstract
Single Mn atom on nitrogen-doped graphene (MnN4 -G) has exhibited good structural stability and high activity for the adsorption and dissociation of an O2 molecule, becoming a promising single-atom catalyst (SAC) candidate for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, the catalytic activity of MnN4 -G for the ORR and the optimal reaction pathway remain obscure. In this work, density-functional theory calculations were employed to comprehensively investigate all the possible pathways and intermediate reactions of the ORR on MnN4 -G. The feasible active sites and the most stable adsorption configurations of the intermediates and transition states during the ORR were identified. Screened from all the possibilities, three optimal four-electron O2 hydrogenation pathways with an ultralow energy barrier of 0.13 eV were discovered that are energetically more favorable than direct O2 dissociation pathways. Analysis of the free energy diagram further verified the thermodynamical feasibility of the three pathways. Thus, MnN4 -G possesses superior ORR activity. This study provides a fundamental understanding of the design of highly efficient SACs for the ORR.

Abstract
We elucidate the structural evolution of CoN4 sites during thermal activation by developing a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-8-derived carbon host as an ideal model for Co2+ ion adsorption. Subsequent in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy analysis can dynamically track the conversion from inactive Co-OH and Co-O species into active CoN4 sites. The critical transition occurs at 700 °C and becomes optimal at 900 °C, generating the highest intrinsic activity and four-electron selectivity for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). DFT calculations elucidate that the ORR is kinetically favored by the thermal-induced compressive strain of Co-N bonds in CoN4 active sites formed at 900 °C. Further, we developed a two-step (i.e., Co ion doping and adsorption) Co-N-C catalyst with increased CoN4 site density and optimized porosity for mass transport, and demonstrated its outstanding fuel cell performance and durability.
