Abstract
Selective hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes into unsaturated alcohols is a process in high demand in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and food production. This process requires the precise hydrogenation of C═O bonds, a challenge that requires a tailored catalyst. Single-atom alloys (SAAs), where individual atoms of one metal are distributed in a host metal matrix, offer a potential solution to this challenge. Nevertheless, identifying the appropriate SAA capable of targeted adsorption and the efficient activation of C═O bonds remains a substantial hurdle. In this work, we synergistically combine density functional theory (DFT) calculations, active learning, and microkinetic simulations to design SAAs for the efficient and selective hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. We first comprehensively assessed the potential of 66 SAAs across 264 surfaces (including (100), (110), (111), and (320) crystal planes), to gauge their potential in activating C═C and C═O bonds. Our assessment unveiled the excellent selectivity of the Ti1Au SAA in activating C═O bonds. Moreover, our detailed DFT calculations further demonstrated the high catalytic activity of Ti1Au(320) and Ti1Au(111) surfaces with a low activation energy barrier of only 0.60 eV. Subsequently, we conducted microkinetic simulations on the selective hydrogenation process of crotonaldehyde, by selecting Ti1Au (320) and (111) surfaces as the catalysts and demonstrated that they exhibited a remarkable selectivity and nearly 100% conversion toward crotyl alcohol in the temperature range from 373 to 553 K. The present study not only reveals novel SAAs for targeted hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes but also establishes a promising path toward efficient design of selective hydrogenation catalysts more broadly.

Abstract
Reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy and temperature programmed desorption were used to study the adsorption of acrolein, its partial hydrogenation products, propanal and 2-propenol, and its full hydrogenation product, 1-propanol on the Ag(111) surface. Each molecule adsorbs weakly to the surface and desorbs without reaction at temperatures below 220 K. For acrolein, the out-of plane bending modes are more intense than the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O stretch at all coverages, indicating that the molecular plane is mainly parallel to the surface. The two alcohols, 2-propenol and 1-propanol, have notably higher desorption temperatures than acrolein and display strong hydrogen bonding in the multilayers as revealed by a broadened and redshifted O-H stretch. For 1-propanol, annealing the surface to 180 K disrupts the hydrogen-bonding to produce unusally narrow peaks, including one at 1015 cm-1 with a full width at half maximum of 1.1 cm-1. This suggests that 1-propanol forms a highly orderded monolayer and adsorbs as a single conformer. For 2-propenol, hydrogen bonding in the multilayer correlates with observation of the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C stretch at 1646 cm-1, which is invisible for the monolayer. This suggests that for monolayer coverages, 2-propenol bonds with the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond parallel to the surface. Similarly, the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O stretch of propanal is very weak for low coverages but becomes the largest peak for the multilayer, indicating a change in orientation with coverage.

Abstract
We report 8‐step syntheses of (−)‐minovincine and (−)‐aspidofractinine using easily available and inexpensive reagents and catalyst. A key element of the strategy was the utilization of a sequence of cascade reactions to rapidly construct the penta‐ and hexacyclic frameworks. These cascade transformations included organocatalytic Michael‐aldol condensation, a multistep anionic Michael‐SN2 cascade reaction, and Mannich reaction interrupted Fischer indolization. To streamline the synthetic routes, we also investigated the deliberate use of steric effect to secure various chemo‐ and regioselective transformations.

Abstract
A high-flux molecular beam setup has been used to characterize the kinetics of the steady-state catalytic hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes, specifically of crotonaldehyde, promoted by platinum surfaces under single-collision conditions. Surprisingly, in addition to the hydrogenation of the individual single bonds, to yield the saturated aldehyde and the unsaturated alcohol, the formation of the saturated alcohol, the product of the hydrogenation of both C═C and C═O bonds, was detected as well. This indicates that the dual hydrogenation reaction is a primary pathway and not the result of secondary hydrogenation of the other products as commonly assumed. Moreover, an increase in the partial pressure of the reactant was found to shift the reaction selectivity from the saturated alcohol to the saturated aldehyde without significantly affecting the selectivity toward the production of the unsaturated alcohol. We explain these observations by proposing a mechanism involving the parallel formation of several monohydrogenated intermediates on the surface.

Abstract
Monitoring active surface species on an operating technical catalyst is a challenging task due to the presence of multiple different adsorption sites and the abundance of bulk species. In this work, kinetic isotope effect (KIE) spectroscopy is introduced to capture the signals of catalytically relevant hydrogenation species from the IR spectroscopic detection in attenuated total reflection mode. The catalytic interface formed between a cinchona-modified Pt/Al2O3 catalyst and the solvent toluene is sensitively probed directly at the rate limiting step(s) during the asymmetric hydrogenation of ethyl pyruvate by measuring the effects of substituting H2 by D2 kinetically and spectroscopically in the same operando experiment. The application of KIE spectroscopy provides unprecedented molecular level insight into the structure of the diastereomeric intermediate surface complex and the phenomenon rate enhancement, which revolutionizes our understanding of chirally modified metal catalysts.

Abstract
The mechanistic understanding and control over transformations of multi-unsaturated hydrocarbons on transition metal surfaces remains one of the major challenges of hydrogenation catalysis. To reveal the microscopic origins of hydrogenation chemoselectivity, we performed a comprehensive theoretical investigation on the reactivity of two α,β-unsaturated carbonyls-isophorone and acrolein-on seven (111) metal surfaces: Pd, Pt, Rh, Ir, Cu, Ag, and Au. In doing so, we uncover a general mechanism that goes beyond the celebrated frontier molecular orbital theory, rationalizing the C═C bond activation in isophorone and acrolein as a result of significant surface-induced broadening of high-energy inner molecular orbitals. By extending our calculations to hydrogen-precovered surface and higher adsorbate surface coverage, we further confirm the validity of the "inner orbital broadening mechanism" under realistic catalytic conditions. The proposed mechanism is fully supported by our experimental reaction studies for isophorone and acrolein over Pd nanoparticles terminated with (111) facets. Although the position of the frontier molecular orbitals in these molecules, which are commonly considered to be responsible for chemical interactions, suggests preferential hydrogenation of the C═O double bond, experiments show that hydrogenation occurs at the C═C bond on Pd catalysts. The extent of broadening of inner molecular orbitals might be used as a guiding principle to predict the chemoselectivity for a wide class of catalytic reactions at metal surfaces.
