Abstract
Metal-free carbon, as the most representative heterogeneous metal-free catalysts, have received considerable interests in electro- and thermo-catalytic reactions due to their impressive performance and sustainability. Over the past decade, well-designed carbon catalysts with tunable structures and heteroatom groups coupled with various characterization techniques have proposed numerous reaction mechanisms. However, active sites, key intermediate species, precise structure-activity relationships and dynamic evolution processes of carbon catalysts are still rife with controversies due to the monotony and limitation of used experimental methods. In this Review, we summarize the extensive efforts on model catalysts since the 2000s, particularly in the past decade, to overcome the influences of material and structure limitations in metal-free carbon catalysis. Using both nanomolecule model and bulk model, the real contribution of each alien species, defect and edge configuration to a series of fundamentally important reactions, such as thermocatalytic reactions, electrocatalytic reactions, were systematically studied. Combined with in situ techniques, isotope labeling and size control, the detailed reaction mechanisms, the precise 2D structure-activity relationships and the rate-determining steps were revealed at a molecular level. Furthermore, the outlook of model carbon catalysis has also been proposed in this work.

Abstract
Selective oxidations are important reactions in organic synthesis for fine chemical industry and conventional methods are expensive and produce a lot of toxic wastes. Herein, we demonstrate a facile and environmentally benign technique for liquid phase selective oxidation based on graphene-supported Mn single-atom-catalyst (SAMn-G) for efficient peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. The active Mn component in the developed SAMn-G catalyst reached single-atomic dispersion on graphene substrate via the coordination of individual Mn atoms with the doped N from the graphene framework. SAMn-G activated PMS via a nonradical-dominated pathway, which could convert aromatic alcohols into aldehydes or ketones at a mild temperature. The SAMn-G catalyst exhibited superior conversion and aldehyde selectivity in alcohol oxidation in comparison with their counterpart catalysts possessing either homogeneous Mn ions or oxide particles. The high activation efficiency of SAMn-G is due to the synergistic effect between Mn atoms and graphene substrate, as well as the dominated reaction pathway from nonradical oxidation, which is more selective than these free radicals to oxidize the alcohols. Concerted experimental evidence indicates that the non-radical oxidation process was highly possible to follow the electron transfer mechanism by PMS/organic adsorption on the surface of the catalyst. This study provides a fundamental understanding of PMS activation mediated by single atom catalyst for organic synthesis and the achieved insights can also help the catalyst design for other liquid phase selective oxidation processes.

Abstract
Fine constructing the chemical environment of the central metal is vital in developing efficient single-atom catalysts (SACs). Herein, the atomically dispersed Cu on the N-doped carbon is modulated by introducing CuP moiety to CuNC SAC. Through fine-tuning with another heteroatom P, the Cu SAC shows the superior performance of ethylene oxychlorination. The Cu site activity of Cu-NPC is four times higher than the P-free Cu-NC catalyst and 25 times higher than the Ce-promoted CuCl2 /Al2 O3 catalyst in the long-term test (>200 h). The selectivity of ethylene dichloride can be splendidly kept at ≈99%. Combined experimental and simulation studies provide a theoretical framework for the coordination of Cu, N, and P in the complex active center and its role in effectively catalyzing ethylene oxychlorination. It integrates the oxidation and chlorination reactions with superior catalytic performance and unrivaled ability of corrosive-HCl resistance. The concept of fine constructing with another heteroatom is anticipated to provide with inspiration for rational catalyst design and expand the applications of carbon-based SACs in heterogeneous catalysis.

Efficient activation of peroxodisulfate by novel bionic iron-encapsulated biochar: The key roles of electron transfer pathway and reactive oxygen species evolution. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 443:130204. [PMID: 36308934 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.130204] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2022] [Revised: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 10/15/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
In this study, a novel iron-encapsulated biochar (Fe@BC) was prepared using the biomass cultivated with an iron-containing solution. The iron in Fe@BC showed the phase change from Fe3O4 to α-Fe, and to CFe15.1, with the increase of pyrolysis temperature (500-900 °C), and a graphene shell formed on the surface of Fe@BC. In addition, the signals assigned to the π-π* shake up, pyridinic N, graphitic N, and defects of Fe@BC were found to be stronger as the pyrolysis temperature increased. The F4@B9 sample, which was prepared at 900 °C, exhibited an excellent performance (98.01 %) to activate peroxydisulfate (PDS) for the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol. Electron paramagnetic resonanceand chemical quenching experiments revealed that reactive oxygen radicals (ROS) including sulfate radical (•SO4-), hydroxyl radical (•OH), superoxide radical (•O2-), and singlet oxygen (1O2) existed in the F4@B9/PDS system. Furthermore, the micro-electrolysis process facilitated the generation of •O2- (12.35 %) and 1O2 (6.49 %) compared with the pure PDS system. Density functional theory revealed that, for the F4@B9-activated PDS process, the graphene shell of F4@B9 served as catalytic active sites as well. According to the correlation analysis, the iron specie of CFe15.1 was more favorable for the generation of ROS than α-Fe. Also, π-π* shake up, pyridinic N, graphitic N, and defects participated in the PDS activation. This study provides a new method for the preparation of high-performance catalysts from naturally grown biomass with high iron contents.

Abstract
New covalently modified GO-guanidine materials have been realized in a gram-scale synthesis and purified by an innovative microfiltration. The use of these composites in the fixation of CO2 into cyclic carbonates is demonstrated. Mild operating conditions, high yields (up to 85 %), wide scope (15 examples) and recoverability/reusability (up to 5 cycles) of the material account for the efficiency of the protocol. Dedicated control experiments shed light on the activation modes exerted by GO-l-arginine during the ring-opening/closing synthetic sequence.

Abstract
The influence of structural modifications on the catalytic activity of carbon materials is poorly understood. A collection of carbonaceous materials with different pore networks and high nitrogen content was characterized and used to catalyze four reactions to deduce structure-activity relationships. The CO2 cycloaddition and Knoevenagel reaction depend on Lewis basic sites (electron-rich nitrogen species). The absence of large conjugated carbon domains resulting from the introduction of large amounts of nitrogen in the carbon network is responsible for poor redox activity, as observed through the catalytic reduction of nitrobenzene with hydrazine and the catalytic oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine using hydroperoxide. The material with the highest activity towards Lewis acid catalysis (in the hydrolysis of (dimethoxymethyl)benzene to benzaldehyde) is the most effective for small molecule activation and presents the highest concentration of electron-poor nitrogen species.

Abstract
Adsorptive separation is a promising lower-energy alternative for traditional industrial separation processes. While carbon-based materials have a long history in adsorptive removal of organic contaminants from solution or gas mixtures, separation using an adsorption/desorption protocol is rarely considered. The main drawbacks are the limited control in bulk adsorption experiments, as often all organic molecules are adsorbed, and lack of desorption methods to retrieve the adsorbed molecules. Using high-resolution on-surface characterization with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), an increased understanding of the on-surface adsorption behavior under different conditions was obtained. The insight obtained from the nanoscale experiments was used to develop a highly selective separation method using adsorption and desorption on graphite, which was tested for the separation of quinonoid zwitterions. These experiments on adsorptive separation using self-assembly on graphite show its potential and demonstrate the advantage of combining surface characterization techniques with bulk experiments to exploit different possible applications of carbon-based materials.

Abstract
Transition metal single-atom catalysts (SACs) are of immense interest, but how exactly they are evolved upon pyrolysis of the corresponding precursors remains unclear as transition metal ions in the complex precursor undergo a series of morphological changes accompanied with changes in oxidation state as a result of the interactions with the carbon support. Herein, the authors record the complete evolution process of Co SAC during the pyrolysis a Co/Zn-containing zeolitic imidazolate framework. Aberration-corrected environmental TEM coupled with in-situ EELS is used for direct visualization of the evolution process at 200-1000 °C. Dissolution of carbon into the nanoparticles of Co is found to be key to modulating the wetting behavior of nanoparticles on the carbon support; melting of Co nanoparticles and their motion within the zeolitic architecture leads to the etching of the framework structure, yielding porous C/N support onto which Co-single atoms reside. This uniquely structured Co SAC is found to be effective for the oxidation of a series of aromatic alkanes to produce selective ketones among other possible products. The carbon dissolution and melting/sublimation-driven structural dynamics of transition metal revealed here will expand the methodology in synthesizing SACs and other high-temperature processes.

Abstract
Designing heterogeneous solid surface frustrated Lewis pair (ssFLP) catalyst for hydrogenation is a new challenge in catalysis and no research has been reported on the construction of ssFLP on boehmite (AlOOH) surfaces up to now as far as we know. Herein, AlOOH with a layer structure is prepared and it is found that the Lewis basic OHv site (one H removed from OH) and an adjacent Lewis acidic unsaturated Al site (Al3+unsatur.) proximal to a surface OHv (OH vacancy) on AlOOH layers could form the ssFLP. The layered structure of AlOOH and its abundant OH defects over the surface result in a high concentration of OHv/Al3+unsatur. FLPs, which are conducive to highly efficient hydrogen activation for hydrogenation of olefins and alkynes with low H-H bond dissociates activation energy of 0.16 eV under mild conditions (T = 80°C and P(H2) = 2.0 MPa). This work develops a new kind of hydrogenation catalyst and provides a new perspective for creating solid surface FLP. Designing heterogeneous solid surface frustrated Lewis pair (ssFLP) catalyst for hydrogenation is a new challenge in catalysis. Here, the authors show the ssFLP can be constructed on layered AlOOH for hydrogenation reactions under mild conditions.

Abstract
Degradability is a key safety issue when choosing materials for biomedical applications and environmental protection. This factor greatly limits the application of porous carbon in these areas due to the inert and stable nature of carbon network. In this work, this conflict could be well-resolved by rational designing a mesoporous carbon (MC) with biomass as a carbon source. The retained oxygen-containing species simultaneously increase drug adsorption capacity and the degradability of MC. The maximum adsorption quantity for doxorubicin over MC can reach 395.3 mg/g, about 3-fold over carbon nanotubes. The detailed analysis reveals that the degradation of MC occurs via a radical mediated oxidation process. The high electron density feature of MC facilitates the electrophilic addition reaction in the presence of HO. During this process, the carbon network is gradually degraded into fragments, carbon nanodots and ultimately to CO2. This work opens up a new way to fabricate degradable porous materials and provides a promising material for the practical application in biomedical and environmental field.

Abstract
The catalytic properties of graphene-derived materials are evaluated in acceptorless dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles. Among them, reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) are active (quantitative yields in 23 h) under mild conditions (130 °C) and act as efficient heterogeneous carbocatalysts. rGO exhibits reusability and stability at least during eight consecutive runs. Mechanistic investigations supported by experimental evidence (i.e., organic molecules as model compounds, purposely addition of metal impurities and selective functional group masking experiments) suggest a preferential contribution of ketone carbonyl groups as active sites for this transformation.

Abstract
Styrene is one of the most important industrial monomers and is traditionally synthesized via the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene. Here, we report a photo-induced fluorination technique to generate an oxidative dehydrogenation catalyst through the controlled grafting of fluorine atoms on nanodiamonds. The obtained catalyst has a fabulous performance with ethylbenzene conversion reaching 70% as well as styrene yields of 63% and selectivity over 90% on a stream of 400 °C, which outperforms other equivalent benchmarks as well as the industrial K-Fe catalysts (with a styrene yield of 50% even at a much higher temperature of ca. 600 °C). Moreover, the yield of styrene remains above 50% after a 500 h test. Experimental characterizations and density functional theory calculations reveal that the fluorine functionalization not only promotes the conversion of sp3 to sp2 carbon to generate graphitic layers but also stimulates and increases the active sites (ketonic C=O). This photo-induced surface fluorination strategy facilitates innovative breakthroughs on the carbocatalysis for the oxidative dehydrogenation of other arenes.

Abstract
Mixed metal-metal oxide/C (Ag-Cu-Cu2O/C) nanocomposites were synthesized by the heat treatment of a metal-organic framework under a N2 flow using the one-pot synthesis method. The as-prepared nanocomposites were characterized using a range of techniques, such as TEM, elemental mapping, XRD, N2 sorption, UV-Vis DRS, and XPS. The nanoparticles were successfully formed with high dispersion in porous carbon materials and high crystallinity based on the analysis results. The Ag-Cu-Cu2O/C nanocomposites (35 nm) showed high photocatalytic activity and good recyclability toward the borylation of aryl halides under a xenon arc lamp. This result can enhance the interest in photocatalysis for various applications, particularly in organic reactions, using a simple and efficient synthesis method.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has garnered much attention due to its potential as an efficient metal-free photocatalyst. This study examines the evolution of properties in zero-dimensional quantum dots up to sizable clusters that mimic extended g-C3N4 monolayers. We employ density functional theory to investigate systematically the structural, electronic, and optical properties of the g-C3N4-based melamine and heptazine building blocks using a "bottom-up" construction of polymeric monolayers. The results from our computations indicate that the melamine- and heptazine-based polymeric g-C3N4 systems must be reduced to at least 2.74 and 4.00 nm, respectively, to observe an increase of its optical gap with a size reduction. The present study also examines the nature of the electronic transitions exhibited by g-C3N4-based monolayers through full natural transition orbital and density of state analyses. The most promising sites for water splitting and subsequent chemical doping studies are identified, which generally correspond to the nitrogen and carbon atoms, respectively.

Abstract
The selective oxidations of alcohols into corresponding aldehydes or ketones are essential reactions for organic synthesis. The development of facile, green and cost-effective protocols to accomplish selective oxidation is highly attractive. Here, we present the selective oxidation of alcohols using peroxymonosulfate (PMS) oxidants with N-doped graphene-like carbon (NG) synthesized via a metal-free approach without producing a large amount of hazardous wastes. In the tested selective oxidation reaction, over 96% of benzyl alcohol (BzOH) was converted into benzaldehyde (BzH) with high selectivity under mild conditions. The synthesized NG catalyst contains abundant electrophilic oxygen species, serving as the major active sites for the generation of reactive radicals from PMS to enable the selective oxidation of BzOH in the radical pathway. Besides, non-radical oxidation of BzOH occurs via the electron transfer through the surface coordinated complex, dominantly upon the N species. Particularly, the configuration of integrated pyridinic N is possible to create active domains for BzOH oxidation with activated PMS. This work opens a new avenue to convert metal-free raw materials into effectively functionalized carbon materials, coupled with their potential applications in the selective oxidation of alcohols.

Abstract
It is desirable for a sustainable society that the production and utilization of renewable materials are net-zero in terms of carbon emissions. Carbon materials with emerging applications in CO2 utilization, renewable energy storage and conversion, and biomedicine have attracted much attention both academically and industrially. However, the preparation process of some new carbon materials suffers from energy consumption and environmental pollution issues. Therefore, the development of low-cost, scalable, industrially and economically attractive, sustainable carbon material preparation methods are required. In this regard, the use of biomass and its derivatives as a precursor of carbon materials is a major feature of sustainability. Recent advances in the synthetic strategy of sustainable carbon materials and their emerging applications are summarized in this short review. Emphasis is made on the discussion of the original intentions and various sustainable strategies for producing sustainable carbon materials. This review provides basic insights and significant guidelines for the further design of sustainable carbon materials and their emerging applications in catalysis and the biomedical field.

Abstract
Mildly thermal air or HNO3 oxidized activated carbons catalyse oxidative dehydrogenative couplings of benzo[b]fused heteroaryl 2,2'-dimers, e.g., 2-(benzofuran-2-yl)-1H-indole, to chiral 3,3'-coupled cyclooctatetraenes or carbazole-type migrative products under O2 atmosphere. DFT calculations show that the radical cation and the Scholl-type arenium cation mechanisms lead to different products with 2-(benzofuran-2-yl)-1H-indole, being in accord with experimental product distributions.

Abstract
Carbocatalysis holds a privileged position as a sustainable alternative to metal-based catalysis. While the focus in solution-based catalytic processes generally lies on how the heterogeneous catalyst affects the solution composition, more attention has recently been given to the analysis of the carbon material itself. Various outstanding surface characterisation techniques, efficient in assessing the catalyst on-surface composition, are now available. These include high-resolution imaging tools such as scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), capable of bringing new insights into the processes determining rate and selectivity effects induced by carbocatalysts. In this regard, the use of self-assembly on graphite as a strategy to direct the outcome of chemical reactions has already shown great potential. This promising approach gives the scientific community the exciting prospect of rationalising selectivity in carbocatalysis with pristine graphite by linking in-solution and on-surface composition.

Abstract
A bifunctional catalyst comprising CuCl2 /Al2 O3 and nitrogen-doped carbon was developed for an efficient one-pot ethylene oxychlorination process to produce vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) up to 76 % yield at 250 °C and under ambient pressure, which is higher than the conventional industrial two-step process (≈50 %) in a single pass. In the second bed, active sites containing N-functional groups on the metal-free N-doped carbon catalyzed both ethylene oxychlorination and ethylene dichloride (EDC) dehydrochlorination under the mild conditions. Benefitting from the bifunctionality of the N-doped carbon, VCM formation was intensified by the surface Cl*-looping of EDC dehydrochlorination and ethylene oxychlorination. Both reactions were enhanced by in situ consumption of surface Cl* by oxychlorination, in which Cl* was generated by EDC dehydrochlorination. This work offers a promising alternative pathway to VCM production via ethylene oxychlorination at mild conditions through a single pass reactor.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) is experiencing growing interest by synthetic organic chemists as a promoter of chemical transformations. The synergistic role of the multiple functionalities featuring the nanostructured carbon materials and their π-domains enables the interplay of specific activation modes towards organic compounds that can explore unprecedented chemical modifications. A detailed comprehension of the mechanistic details that govern the transformations guided by GO is a not fully solved task in the field. In this direction, more sophisticated and diversified techniques are employed, providing insights towards intriguing activation modes exerted by the π-matrix and the oxygenated/sulfonate groups decorating the functionalized nano-carbon material. The present Minireview accounts for a critical survey of the most recent developments in the area of GO-mediated organic transformations with a specific focus on mechanist aspects.

Abstract
Carbonylation of nitroaromatics with CO is extensively investigated with efficient but precious group 8-10 metal-based catalysts for the productions of both industrially and academically important chemicals such as isocyanates, formamides, carbamates, ureas and several types of heterocyclic compounds. Herein, we report that rationally designed nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs) exhibit catalytic activity toward CO activation for carbonylation of nitroaromatics to benzimidazolinones and ureas. Under the optimal conditions, N-CNT-promoted intramolecular carbonylation of 2-nitroaniline (1a) with CO leads to formation of 1,3-dihydro-2H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-one in 90% yield. Moreover, an intermolecular carbonylation of nitrobenzene and aniline with CO in the presence of the N-CNT gives 70% yield of N,N'-diphenylurea. The N-CNT is also applicable to various benzimidazolinones and phenyl ureas; moreover, it can be readily reused at least 9 times for the carbonylation. The theoretical investigation based on density functional theory calculations indicates that the graphitic N of the N-CNT plays a crucial step in the 1a reduction with CO. The correlation between the structural defect and catalytic performance of the N-CNT reveals an enhanced catalytic activity of the N-CNT with its increased structural defects. This research thus represents a major breakthrough in CO activation for nitroaromatic carbonylation with environmental-friendly, low-cost, and carbon-based catalysts as a potential alternative to expensive and scarce noble-metal-based catalysts.

NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2020; 2:4199-4211.

Abstract
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were easily and efficiently functionalised with highly cross-linked polyamines. The radical polymerisation of two bis-vinylimidazolium salts in the presence of pristine MWCNTs and azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as a radical initiator led to the formation of materials with a high functionalisation degree. The subsequent treatment with sodium borohydride gave rise to the reduction of imidazolium moieties with the concomitant formation of secondary and tertiary amino groups. The obtained materials were characterised by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), elemental analysis, solid state 13C-NMR, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), potentiometric titration, and temperature programmed desorption of carbon dioxide (CO2-TPD). One of the prepared materials was tested as a heterogeneous base catalyst in C-C bond forming reactions such as the Knoevenagel condensation and Henry reaction. Furthermore, two examples concerning a sequential one-pot approach involving two consecutive reactions, namely Knoevenagel and Michael reactions, were reported.

Allylic and Allenylic Dearomatization of Indoles Promoted by Graphene Oxide by Covalent Grafting Activation Mode. Chemistry 2020; 26:10427-10432. [PMID: 32346922 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202001373] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
The site-selective allylative and allenylative dearomatization of indoles with alcohols was performed under carbocatalytic regime in the presence of graphene oxide (GO, 10 wt % loading) as the promoter. Metal-free conditions, absence of stoichiometric additive, environmentally friendly conditions (H2 O/CH3 CN, 55 °C, 6 h), broad substrate scope (33 examples, yield up to 92 %) and excellent site- and stereoselectivity characterize the present methodology. Moreover, a covalent activation model exerted by GO functionalities was corroborated by spectroscopic, experimental and computational evidences. Recovering and regeneration of the GO catalyst through simple acidic treatment was also documented.
