Abstract
Continuing our investigation of catalytic oxo/imido heterometathesis as novel water-free method for C=N bond construction, we report here the application of classical transition metal oxides dispersed on silica (MOx/SiO2, M=V, Mo, W) as cheap, robust and readily available alternative to the catalysts prepared via Surface Organometallic Chemistry (SOMC). The oxide materials demonstrated activity in heterometathetical imidation of ketones, WO3/SiO2 being the most efficient. We also describe a new well-defined supported W imido complex (≡SiO)W(=NMes)2(Me2Pyr) (Mes=2,4,6-Me3C6H2, Me2Pyr=2,5-dimethylpyrrolyl) and characterize it with SOMC protocols, which allowed us to identify the position of W on the oxo/imido heterometathesis activity scale (Mo

Abstract
The structure of catalysts determines the performance of catalytic processes. Intrinsically, the electronic and geometric structures influence the interaction between active species and the surface of the catalyst, which subsequently regulates the adsorption, reaction, and desorption behaviors. In recent decades, the development of catalysts with complex structures, including bulk, interfacial, encapsulated, and atomically dispersed structures, can potentially affect the electronic and geometric structures of catalysts and lead to further control of the transport and reaction of molecules. This review describes comprehensive understandings on the influence of electronic and geometric properties and complex catalyst structures on the performance of relevant heterogeneous catalytic processes, especially for the transport and reaction over structured catalysts for the conversions of light alkanes and small molecules. The recent research progress of the electronic and geometric properties over the active sites, specifically for theoretical descriptors developed in the recent decades, is discussed at the atomic level. The designs and properties of catalysts with specific structures are summarized. The transport phenomena and reactions over structured catalysts for the conversions of light alkanes and small molecules are analyzed. At the end of this review, we present our perspectives on the challenges for the further development of structured catalysts and heterogeneous catalytic processes.

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysts undergo thermal- and/or adsorbate-induced dynamic changes under reaction conditions, which consequently modify their catalytic behavior. Hence, it is increasingly crucial to characterize the properties of a catalyst under reaction conditions through the so-called "operando" approach. Operando IR spectroscopy is probably one of the most ubiquitous and versatile characterization methods in the field of heterogeneous catalysis, but its potential in identifying adsorbate- and thermal-induced phenomena is often overlooked in favor of other less accessible methods, such as XAS spectroscopy and high-resolution microscopy. Without detracting from these techniques, and while aware of the enormous value of a multitechnique approach, the purpose of this Review is to show that IR spectroscopy alone can provide relevant information in this field. This is done by discussing a few selected case studies from our own research experience, which belong to the categories of both "single-site"- and nanoparticle-based catalysts.

Abstract
In this work, we demonstrate that amorphous and porous molybdenum silicate microspheres are highly active catalysts for heterogeneous propylene metathesis. Homogeneous molybdenum silicate microspheres and aluminum-doped molybdenum silicate microspheres were synthesized via a nonaqueous condensation of a hybrid molybdenum biphenyldicarboxylate-based precursor solution with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane. The as-prepared hybrid metallosilicate products were calcined at 500 °C to obtain amorphous and porous molybdenum silicate and aluminum-doped molybdenum silicate microspheres with highly dispersed molybdate species inserted into the silicate matrix. These catalysts contain mainly highly dispersed MoOx species, which possess high catalytic activity in heterogeneous propylene metathesis to ethylene and butene. Compared to conventional silica-supported MoOx catalysts prepared via incipient wetness impregnation (MoIWI), the microspheres with low Mo content (1.5-3.6 wt %) exhibited nearly 2 orders of magnitude higher steady-state propylene metathesis rates at 200 °C, approaching site time yields of 0.11 s-1.

Abstract
Industrial heterogeneous catalysts show high performance coupled with high material complexity. Deconvoluting this complexity into simplified models eases mechanistic studies. However, this approach dilutes the relevance because models are often less performing. We present a holistic approach to reveal the origin of high performance without losing the relevance by pivoting the system at an industrial benchmark. Combining kinetic and structural analyses, we show how the performance of Bi-Mo-Co-Fe-K-O industrial acrolein catalysts occurs. The surface BiMoO ensembles decorated with K supported on β-Co1-xFexMoO4 perform the propene oxidation, while the K-doped iron molybdate pools electrons to activate dioxygen. The nanostructured vacancy-rich and self-doped bulk phases ensure the charge transport between the two active sites. The features particular to the real system enable the high performance.

Abstract
The olefin metathesis activity of silica-supported molybdenum oxides depends strongly on metal loading and preparation conditions, indicating that the nature and/or amounts of the active sites vary across compositionally similar catalysts. This is illustrated by comparing Mo-based (pre)catalysts prepared by impregnation (2.5-15.6 wt % Mo) and a model material (2.3 wt % Mo) synthesized via surface organometallic chemistry (SOMC). Analyses of FTIR, UV-vis, and Mo K-edge X-ray absorption spectra show that these (pre)catalysts are composed predominantly of similar isolated Mo dioxo sites. However, they exhibit different reaction properties in both liquid and gas-phase olefin metathesis with the SOMC-derived catalyst outperforming a classical catalyst of a similar Mo loading by ×1.5-2.0. Notably, solid-state 95Mo NMR analyses leveraging state-of-the-art high-field (28.2 T) measurement conditions resolve four distinct surface Mo dioxo sites with distributions that depend on the (pre)catalyst preparation methods. The intensity of a specific deshielded 95Mo NMR signal, which is most prominent in the SOMC-derived catalyst, is linked to reducibility and catalytic activity. First-principles calculations show that 95Mo NMR parameters directly manifest the local strain and coordination environment: acute (SiO-Mo(O)2-OSi) angles and low coordination numbers at Mo lead to highly deshielded 95Mo chemical shifts and small quadrupolar coupling constants, respectively. Natural chemical shift analyses relate the 95Mo NMR signature of strained species to low LUMO energies, which is consistent with their high reducibility and corresponding reactivity. The 95Mo chemical shifts of supported Mo dioxo sites are thus linked to their specific electronic structures, providing a powerful descriptor for their propensity toward reduction and formation of active sites.

Abstract
Carbyne with one-dimensional sp-hybridized carbon atoms is the third form of carbon following diamond and graphite. Although carbyne nanocrystals have been synthesized, little is known about its structural details. Here, we report experimental evidence of the kinked structure of carbon chains and interchain van der Waals interaction of carbyne nanocrystals by near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy. We measure the resonance and the feature peaks of the kinked configuration of carbon chains and the van der Waals interaction between chains of carbyne nanocrystals using NEXAFS spectroscopy. We also perform theoretical calculations of density functional theory and simulations based on the super-cell core-hole method for carbon K-edge NEXAFS. The theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimental measurements, which demonstrates that carbyne nanocrystals are van der Waals crystals with kinked chains as structural units. Note that the peak at 288.5 eV in the simulated NEXAFS spectrum implies the possible presence of hydrogen-terminated kinks or hydrogen-terminated chains in carbyne nanocrystals, which clarifies the understanding of the C-H bond in carbyne nanocrystals. These findings are enlightening and significant for pursuing physics and potential applications of carbyne.

Abstract
The most active alkyne metathesis catalysts rely on well-defined Mo alkylidynes, X3Mo≡CR (X = OR), in particular the recently developed canopy catalyst family bearing silanolate ligand sets. Recent efforts to understand catalyst reactivity patterns have shown that NMR chemical shifts are powerful descriptors, though previous studies have mostly focused on ligand-based NMR descriptors. Here, we show in the context of alkyne metathesis that 95Mo chemical shift tensors encode detailed information on the electronic structure of these catalysts. Analysis by first-principles calculations of 95Mo chemical shift tensors extracted from solid-state 95Mo NMR spectra shows a direct link of chemical shift values with the energies of the HOMO and LUMO, two molecular orbitals involved in the key [2 + 2]-cycloaddition step, thus linking 95Mo chemical shifts to reactivity. In particular, the 95Mo chemical shifts are driven by ligand electronegativity (σ-donation) and electron delocalization through Mo-O π interactions, thus explaining the reactivity patterns of the silanolate canopy catalysts. These results further motivate exploration of transition metal NMR signatures and their relationships to electronic structure and reactivity.

Abstract
This work investigates the previously unexplored impact of tensile stress on oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics of a precipitation-hardened, stainless-steel fastener material, UNS S13800. ORR is known to drive localized and galvanic corrosion in aircraft assemblies and greater understanding of this reaction on structural alloys is important in forecasting component lifetime and service requirements. The mechano-electrochemical behavior of UNSS13800 was examined using amperometry to measure the reduction current response to tensile stress. Mechanical load cycles within the elastic regime demonstrated reversible electrochemical current shifts under chloride electrolyte droplets that exhibited a clear potential dependence. Strain ramping produced current peaks with a strain rate dependence, which was distinct from the chronoamperometric shifts during static tensile load conditions. Finally, mechanistic insight into the dynamic and static responses was obtained by deoxygenation, which demonstrated ORR contributions that were distinct from other reductive processes.

Abstract
The lattice oxygen on transition metal oxides serves as a critical active site in the dehydrogenation of alkanes, whose activity is determined by electronic properties and environmental structures. Hydrogen affinity has been used as a universal descriptor to predict C–H bond activation, while the understanding of the environmental structure is ambiguous due to its complexity. This paper describes a combined theoretical and experimental study to reveal the activity of lattice oxygen species with different local structures, taking Mo-based oxides and C–H bond activation of low-carbon alkanes as model catalytic systems. Our theoretical work suggests that oxygen species with convex curvature are more active than those with concave curvature. Theoretically, we propose an interpretative descriptor, the activation deformation energy, to quantify the surface reconstruction induced by adsorbates with various environmental structures. Experimentally, a Mo-based polyoxometalate with the convex curvature structure shows nearly five times the initial activity than single-crystal molybdenum oxide with the concave one. This work provides theoretical guidance for designing metal oxide catalysts with high activity. Tuning of the environmental structure near the lattice oxygen of molybdenum oxides can form a favorable spatial structure to enhance the intrinsic activity for C–H bond activation.![]()

Abstract
Understanding the interplay between strain and nonstoichiometry for the electronic, magnetic, and redox properties of LiMn2O4 films is essential for their development as Li-ion battery (LIB) cathodes, photoelectrodes, and systems for sustainable spintronics applications as well as for emerging applications that combine these technologies. Here, density functional theory (DFT) simulations suggest that compressive strain increases the reduction drive of (111) LiMn2O4 films by inducing >1 eV upshift of the valence band edge. The DFT results indicate that, regardless of the crystallographic orientation for the LiMn2O4 film, biaxial expansion increases the magnetic moments of the Mn atoms. Conversely, biaxial compression reduces them. For ferromagnetic films, these changes can be substantial and as large as over 4 Bohr magnetons per unit cell over the simulated range of strain (from -6 to +3%). The DFT simulations also uncover a compensation mechanism whereby strain induces opposite changes in the magnetic moment of the Mn and O atoms, leading to an overall constant magnetic moment for the ferromagnetic films. The calculated strain-induced changes in atomic magnetic moments reflect modifications in the local electronic hybridization of both the Mn and O atoms, which in turn suggests strain-tunable, local chemical, and electrochemical reactivity. Several energy-favored (110) and (111) ferromagnetic surfaces turn out to be half-metallic with minority-spin band gaps as large as 3.2 eV and compatible with spin-dependent electron-transport and possible spin-dependent electrochemical and electrocatalytic properties. The resilience of the ferromagnetic, half-metallic states to surface nonstoichiometry and compositional changes invites exploration of the potential of LiMn2O4 thin films for sustainable spintronic applications beyond state-of-the-art, rare-earth metal-based, ferromagnetic half-metallic oxides.

Abstract
Bimetallic nanocrystals (NCs), associated with various surface functions such as ligand effect, ensemble effect, and strain effect, exhibit superior electrocatalytic properties. The stress-induced surface strain effect can alter binding strength between the surface active sites and reactants as well as their intermediates, and the electrochemical performance of bimetallic NCs can be significantly facilitated by the lattice-strain modification via their morphologies, sizes, shell-thickness, surface defectiveness as well as compositions. In this review, an overview of fundamental principles, characterization techniques, and quantitative determination of the surface lattice strain is provided. Various strategies and synthesis efforts on creating lattice-strain-engineered bimetallic NCs, including the de-alloying process, atomic layer-by-layer deposition, thermal treatment evolution, one-pot synthesis, and other efforts are also discussed. It is further outlined how the lattice strain effect promotes electrochemical catalysis through the selected case studies. The reactions on oxygen reduction reaction, small molecular oxidation, water splitting reaction, and electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reactions are focused. In particular, studies of lattice strain arisen from core-shell nanostructure and defectiveness are highlighted. Lastly, the potential challenges are summarized and the prospects of lattice-strain-based engineering on bimetallic nanocatalysts with suggestion and guidance of the future electrocatalyst design are envisioned.

Abstract
The knowledge of mechanics of materials has been extensively implemented in developing functional materials, giving rise to recent advances in soft actuators, flexible electronics, mechanical metamaterials, tunable mechanochromics, regenerative mechanomedicine, etc. While conventional mechanics of materials offers passive access to mechanical properties of materials in existing forms, a paradigm shift is emerging toward proactive programming of materials' functionality by leveraging the force-geometry-property relationships. Here, such a rising field is coined as "mechanomaterials". To profile the concept, the design principles in this field at four scales is first outlined, namely the atomic scale, the molecular scale, the manipulation of nanoscale materials, and the microscale design of structural materials. A variety of techniques have been recruited to deliver the multiscale programming of functional mechanomaterials, such as strain engineering, capillary assembly, topological interlocking, kirigami, origami, to name a few. Engineering optical and biological functionalities have also been achieved by implementing the fundamentals of mechanochemistry and mechanobiology. Nonetheless, the field of mechanomaterials is still in its infancy, with many open challenges and opportunities that need to be addressed. The authors hope this review can serve as a modest spur to attract more researchers to further advance this field.

Abstract
On-purpose synthetic routes for propylene production have emerged in the last couple of decades in response to the increasing demand for plastics and a shift to shale gas feedstocks for ethylene production. Propane dehydrogenation (PDH), an efficient and selective route to produce propylene, saw booming investments to fill the so-called propylene gap. In the coming years, however, a fluctuating light olefins market will call for flexibility in end-product of PDH plants. This can be achieved by combining PDH with propylene metathesis in a single step, propane to olefins (PTO), which allows production of mixtures of propylene, ethylene and butenes, which are important chemical building blocks for a.o. thermoplastics. The metathesis technology introduced by Phillips in the 1960s and mostly operated in reverse to produce propylene, is thus undergoing a renaissance of scientific and technological interest in the context of the PTO reaction. In this review, we will describe the state-of-the-art of PDH, propylene metathesis and PTO reactions, highlighting the open challenges and opportunities in the field. While the separate PDH and metathesis reactions have been extensively studied in the literature, understanding the whole PTO tandem-catalysis system will require new efforts in theoretical modelling and operando spectroscopy experiments, to gain mechanistic insights into the combined reactions and finally improve catalytic selectivity and stability for on-purpose olefins production.

Abstract
The photoreduction of the Mo6+/SiO2 system with CO was investigated in situ, employing a recently developed experimental setup allowing for the acquisition of transmission FT-IR spectra under simultaneous UV irradiation. Carbon monoxide, besides acting as a reducing agent in such processes, is also a useful probe molecule able to detect coordinatively unsaturated sites exposed on the surface. The unprecedented quality of the spectroscopic data, obtained as a function of the reduction time, allowed us to better rationalize the different mechanisms previously proposed for the photoreduction process. These results, coupled with UV-Vis spectroscopic data, shed light on the oxidation state and surface structure of supported molybdenum species, which are key active sites for several important reactions, such as selective oxidation, polymerization, hydrodesulfurization, epoxidation and olefin metathesis.

Abstract
This review features state-of-the-artin situandoperandoelectron microscopy (EM) studies of heterogeneous catalysts in gas and liquid environments during reaction. Heterogeneous catalysts are important materials for the efficient production of chemicals/fuels on an industrial scale and for energy conversion applications. They also play a central role in various emerging technologies that are needed to ensure a sustainable future for our society. Currently, the rational design of catalysts has largely been hampered by our lack of insight into the working structures that exist during reaction and their associated properties. However, elucidating the working state of catalysts is not trivial, because catalysts are metastable functional materials that adapt dynamically to a specific reaction condition. The structural or morphological alterations induced by chemical reactions can also vary locally. A complete description of their morphologies requires that the microscopic studies undertaken span several length scales. EMs, especially transmission electron microscopes, are powerful tools for studying the structure of catalysts at the nanoscale because of their high spatial resolution, relatively high temporal resolution, and complementary capabilities for chemical analysis. Furthermore, recent advances have enabled the direct observation of catalysts under realistic environmental conditions using specialized reaction cells. Here, we will critically discuss the importance of spatially-resolvedoperandomeasurements and the available experimental setups that enable (1) correlated studies where EM observations are complemented by separate measurements of reaction kinetics or spectroscopic analysis of chemical species during reaction or (2) real-time studies where the dynamics of catalysts are followed with EM and the catalytic performance is extracted directly from the reaction cell that is within the EM column or chamber. Examples of current research in this field will be presented. Challenges in the experimental application of these techniques and our perspectives on the field's future directions will also be discussed.

Abstract
AbstractThe “Seven Pillars” of oxidation catalysis proposed by Robert K. Grasselli represent an early example of phenomenological descriptors in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. Major advances in the theoretical description of catalytic reactions have been achieved in recent years and new catalysts are predicted today by using computational methods. To tackle the immense complexity of high-performance systems in reactions where selectivity is a major issue, analysis of scientific data by artificial intelligence and data science provides new opportunities for achieving improved understanding. Modern data analytics require data of highest quality and sufficient diversity. Existing data, however, frequently do not comply with these constraints. Therefore, new concepts of data generation and management are needed. Herein we present a basic approach in defining best practice procedures of measuring consistent data sets in heterogeneous catalysis using “handbooks”. Selective oxidation of short-chain alkanes over mixed metal oxide catalysts was selected as an example.

Abstract
Despite the importance of the heterogeneous tungsten-oxo-based olefin metathesis catalyst (WO3/SiO2) in industry, understanding of its initiation mechanism is still very limited. It has been proposed that reduced W(IV)-oxo surface species act as precatalysts. In order to understand the reactivity and initiation mechanism of surface W(IV)-oxo species, we synthesized a well-defined silica-supported W(IV)-oxo species, (≡SiO)WO(OtBuF6)(py)3 (F6@SiO2-700; OtBuF6 = OC(CH3)(CF3)2; py = pyridine), via surface organometallic chemistry (SOMC). F6@SiO2-700 was shown to be highly active in olefin metathesis upon removal of pyridine ligands through the addition of tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (B(C6F5)3) or thermal treatment under high vacuum. The metathesis activity toward olefins with and without allylic C-H groups, namely β-methylstyrene and styrene, respectively, was investigated. In the case of styrene, we demonstrated the role of surface OH groups in initiating metathesis activity. We proposed that the presence of strong Brønsted acidic OH sites, which likely arises from the presence of adjacent W sites in the catalyst as revealed by 15N-labeled pyridine adsorption, can assist styrene metathesis. In contrast, initiation of olefins with allylic C-H groups (e.g., β-methylstyrene) is independent of the surface OH density and likely involves an allylic C-H activation mechanism, like the molecular W(IV)-oxo species. This study indicates that initiation mechanisms depend on the olefinic substrates and reveals the synergistic effect of Brønsted acidic surface sites and reduced W(IV) sites in the initiation of olefin metathesis.

Abstract
Electronic structure modifications due to strain are an effective method for tailoring nano-scale functional materials. Demonstrated on nickel oxide (NiO) thin films, Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering (RIXS) at the transition-metal M2,3-edge is shown to be a powerful tool for measuring the electronic structure modification due to strain in the near-surface region. Analyses from the M2,3-edge RIXS in comparison with dedicated crystal field multiplet calculations show distortions in 40 nm NiO grown on a magnesium oxide (MgO) substrate (NiO/MgO) similar to those caused by surface relaxation of bulk NiO. The films of 20 and 10 nm NiO/MgO show slightly larger differences from bulk NiO. Quantitatively, the NiO/MgO samples all are distorted from perfect octahedral (Oh) symmetry with a tetragonal parameter Ds of about -0.1 eV, very close to the Ds distortion from octahedral (Oh) symmetry parameter of -0.11 eV obtained for the surface-near region from a bulk NiO crystal. Comparing the spectra of a 20 nm film of NiO grown on a 20 nm magnetite (Fe3O4) film on a MgO substrate (NiO/Fe3O4/MgO) with the calculated multiplet analyses, the distortion parameter Ds appears to be closer to zero, showing that the surface-near region of this templated film is less distorted from Oh symmetry than the surface-near region in bulk NiO. Finally, the potential of M2,3-edge RIXS for other investigations of strain on electronic structure is discussed.

Abstract
Olefin metathesis is the catalytic transformation of olefinic substrates, finding a wide range of applications in organic synthesis. The mesoporous molecular sieve Santa Barbara Amorphous (SBA-15) has proven to be an excellent support for metathesis catalysts thanks to its regular mesoporous structure, high BET area, and large pore volume. A survey of catalysts consisting of (i) molybdenum and tungsten oxides on SBA-15, and (ii) molybdenum and ruthenium organometallic complexes (Schrock and Grubbs-type carbenes) on SBA-15 is provided together with their characterization and catalytic performance in various metathesis reactions. The comparison with catalysts based on other supports demonstrates the high quality of the mesoporous molecular sieve SBA-15 as an advanced catalyst support.

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysts are complex by nature, making particularly difficult to assess the structure of their active sites. Such complexity is inherited in part from their mode of preparation, which typically involves coprecipitation or impregnation of metal salts in aqueous solution, and the associated complex surface chemistries. In this context, surface organometallic chemistry (SOMC) has emerged as a powerful approach to generate well-defined surface species, where the metal sites are introduced by grafting tailored molecular precursors. When combined with thermolytic molecular precursors (TMPs) that can lose their organic moieties quite readily upon thermal treatment, SOMC provides access to supported isolated metal sites with defined oxidation state and nuclearity inherited from the precursor. The resulting surface species bear unusual coordination imposed by the surface that provides them high reactivity in comparison with their molecular precursor. In addition, these molecularly defined species bare strong resemblance with the active sites of supported metal oxides. However, they typically contain a higher proportion of active sites making structure-activity relationship possible. They thus constitute ideal models for this important class of industrial catalysts that are used in numerous applications such as olefin epoxidation (Shell process), olefin metathesis (triolefin process), ethylene polymerization (Phillips catalysts), or propane dehydrogenation (Catofin and related processes). This SOMC/TMP approach can thus provide detailed information about the structure of active sites in industrial catalysts, their mode of initiation and deactivation, as well as the role of the support and specific thermal treatment on the final activity of the catalysts. Nonetheless, these structurally characterized surface sites still exhibit heterogeneous environments borrowed from the support itself, that explain the intrinsic complexity of heterogeneous catalysis. Furthermore, SOMC/TMP can also be used to generate and investigate supported metal nanoparticles. Starting from the well-defined isolated sites, that also contain adjacent surface OH groups, one can graft a second metal and then generate after treatment under hydrogen small and narrowly dispersed alloys or nanoparticles with tailored interfaces that can show improved catalytic performances and are amiable to detailed structure-activity relationships. This approach is illustrated by two case studies: (1) formation of supported copper nanoparticles at tailored interfaces that contain isolated metal sites for the selective hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to methanol, allowing for a detailed understanding of the role of dopants and supports in heterogeneous catalysis, and (2) preparation of highly selective and productive propane dehydrogenation catalysts based on silica-supported Pt xGa y alloy. Overall, this Account shows how the combination of SOMC and TMP helps to generate catalysts, particularly suited for elucidating structural characterization of active sites at a molecular-level which in turn enables structure-activity relationship to be drawn. Such detailed information obtained on well-defined catalysts can then be used to understand complex effects observed in industrial catalysts (effects of supports, additives, dopants, etc.), and to extract information that can then be used to improve them in a more rational way.

Abstract
The energy crisis is one of the most serious issue that we confront today. Among different strategies to gain access to reliable fuel, the production of hydrogen fuel through the water-splitting reaction has emerged as the most viable alternative. Specifically, the studies on defect-rich TiO2 materials have been proved that it can perform as an efficient catalyst for electrocatalytic and photocatalytic water-splitting reactions. In this invited review, we have included a general and critical discussion on the background of titanium sub-oxides structure, defect chemistries and the consequent disorder arising in defect-rich Titania and their applications towards water-splitting reactions. We have particularly emphasized the origin of the catalytic activity in Titania-based material and its effects on the structural, optical and electronic behavior. This review article also summarizes studies on challenging issues on defect-rich Titania and new possible directions for the development of an efficient catalyst with improved catalytic performance.

Abstract
In alkene metathesis, while group 6 (Mo or W) high-oxidation state alkylidenes are accepted to be key reaction intermediates for both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, it has been proposed that low valent species in their +4 oxidation state can serve as precatalysts. However, the activation mechanism for these latter species-generating alkylidenes-is still an open question. Here, we report the syntheses of tungsten(IV)-oxo bisalkoxide molecular complexes stabilized by pyridine ligands, WO(OR)2py3 (R = CMe(CF3)2 (2a), R = Si(O tBu)3 (2b), and R = C(CF3)3 (2c); py = pyridine), and show that upon activation with B(C6F5)3 they display alkene metathesis activities comparable to W(VI)-oxo alkylidenes. The initiation mechanism is examined by kinetic, isotope labeling and computational studies. Experimental evidence reveals that the presence of an allylic CH group in the alkene reactant is crucial for initiating alkene metathesis. Deuterium labeling of the allylic C-H group shows a primary kinetic isotope effect on the rate of initiation. DFT calculations support the formation of an allyl hydride intermediate via activation of the allylic C-H bond and show that formation of the metallacyclobutane from the allyl "hydride" involves a proton transfer facilitated by the coordination of a Lewis acid (B(C6F5)3) and assisted by a Lewis base (pyridine). This proton transfer step is rate determining and yields the metathesis active species.
