Abstract
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is a powerful characterization technique that unveils subtle chemical environment differences via core-electron binding energy (CEBE) analysis. We extend the development of real-space pseudopotential methods to calculating 1s, 2s, and 2p3/2 CEBEs of third-row elements (S, P, and Si) within the framework of Kohn-Sham density-functional theory (KS-DFT). The new approach systematically prevents variational collapse and simplifies core-excited orbital selection within dense energy level distributions. However, careful error cancellation analysis is required to achieve accuracy comparable to all-electron methods and experiments. Combined with real-space KS-DFT implementation, this development enables large-scale simulations with both Dirichlet boundary conditions and periodic boundary conditions.

Abstract
The surface frustrated Lewis pairs (SFLPs) open up new opportunities for substituting noble metals in the activation and conversion of stable molecules. However, the applications of SFLPs on a larger scale are impeded by the complex construction process, low surface density, and sensitivity to the reaction environment. Herein, wurtzite-structured crystals such as GaN, ZnO, and AlP are found for developing natural, dense, and stable SFLPs. It is revealed that the SFLPs can naturally exist on the (100) and (110) surfaces of wurtzite-structured crystals. All the surface cations and anions serve as the Lewis acid and Lewis base in SFLPs, respectively, contributing to the surface density of SFLPs as high as 7.26×1014 cm-2. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations indicate that the SFLPs can keep stable under high temperatures and the reaction atmospheres of CO and H2O. Moreover, outstanding performance for activating the given small molecules is achieved on these natural SFLPs, which originates from the optimal orbital overlap between SFLPs and small molecules. Overall, these findings not only provide a simple method to obtain dense and stable SFLPs but also unfold the nature of SFLPs toward the facile activation of small molecules.

Abstract
Activation of small molecules is considered to be a central concern in the theoretical investigation of environment- and energy-related catalytic conversions. Sub-nanostructured frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) have been an emerging research hotspot in recent years due to their advantages in small molecule activation. Although the progress of catalytic applications of FLPs is increasingly reported, the fundamental theories related to the structural formation, site regulation, and catalytic mechanism of FLPs have not yet been fully developed. Given this, it is attempted to demonstrate the underlying theory of FLPs formation, corresponding regulation methods, and its activation mechanism on small molecules using CeO2 as the representative metal oxide. Specifically, this paper presents three fundamental principles for constructing FLPs on CeO2 surfaces, and feasible engineering methods for the regulation of FLPs sites are presented. Furthermore, cases where typical small molecules (e.g., hydrogen, carbon dioxide, methane oxygen, etc.) are activated over FLPs are analyzed. Meanwhile, corresponding future challenges for the development of FLPs-centered theory are presented. The insights presented in this paper may contribute to the theories of FLPs, which can potentially provide inspiration for the development of broader environment- and energy-related catalysis involving small molecule activation.

Abstract
The excellent reactivity of frustrated Lewis pairs (FLP) to activate small molecules has gained increasing attention in recent decades. Though the development of surface FLP (SFLP) is prompting the application of FLP in the chemical industry, the design of SFLP with superior activity, high density, and excellent stability for small-molecule activation is still challenging. Herein, we review the progress of designing SFLP by surface engineering, screening natural SFLP, and the dynamic formation of SFLP from theoretical perspectives. We highlight the breakthrough in fine-tuning the activity, density, and stability of the designed SFLP studied by using computational methods. We also discuss future challenges and directions in designing SFLP with outstanding capabilities for small-molecule activation.

The Underlying Catalytic Role of Oxygen Vacancies in Fatty Acid Methyl Esters Ketonization over TiO x Catalysts. CHEMSUSCHEM 2024; 17:e202301033.

Abstract
Recently, interest in converting bio-derived fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) into added-value products has significantly increased. The selectivity of ketonization reaction in the conversion of the FAMEs has significantly hampered the efficiency of this process. Herein, this work reports the preparation of catalysts with different levels of oxygen vacancies while the crystal phase remained unchanged. The catalyst with the highest level of oxygen vacancy exhibited the maximum selectivity. The density functional theory (DFT) simulation showed an increase in interatomic distances leading to the formation of frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) upon the creation of oxygen vacancies. The surface measurements, type and density of acid sites of the catalysts, showed that the Lewis acid sites enhanced the selectivity for ketone production; while Bronsted acid sites increased the formation of by-products. Moreover, the ketone formation rate was directly proportional to acid density. The findings of this research provide a different approach for catalyst design, based on defects engineering and their effect on the surface activity, which could be used for enhancing the catalytic performance of novel metal oxides.

Abstract
The limited surface coverage and activity of active hydrides on oxide surfaces pose challenges for efficient hydrogenation reactions. Herein, we quantitatively distinguish the long-puzzling homolytic dissociation of hydrogen from the heterolytic pathway on Ga2O3, that is useful for enhancing hydrogenation ability of oxides. By combining transient kinetic analysis with infrared and mass spectroscopies, we identify the catalytic role of coordinatively unsaturated Ga3+ in homolytic H2 dissociation, which is formed in-situ during the initial heterolytic dissociation. This site facilitates easy hydrogen dissociation at low temperatures, resulting in a high hydride coverage on Ga2O3 (H/surface Ga3+ ratio of 1.6 and H/OH ratio of 5.6). The effectiveness of homolytic dissociation is governed by the Ga-Ga distance, which is strongly influenced by the initial coordination of Ga3+. Consequently, by tuning the coordination of active Ga3+ species as well as the coverage and activity of hydrides, we achieve enhanced hydrogenation of CO2 to CO, methanol or light olefins by 4-6 times.

Abstract
Cd-doped ZrO2 catalyst has been found to have high selectivity and activity for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. In this work, density functional theory calculations were carried out to investigate the microscopic mechanism of the reaction. The results show that Cd doping effectively promotes the generation of oxygen vacancies, which significantly activate the CO2 with stable adsorption configurations. Compared with CO2, gaseous H2 adsorption is more difficult, and it is mainly dissociated and adsorbed on the surface as [HCd-HO]* or [HZr-HO]* compact ion pairs, with [HCd-HO]* having the lower energy barrier. The reaction pathways of CO2 to methanol has been investigated, revealing the formate path as the dominated pathway via HCOO* to H2COO* and to H3CO*. The hydrogen anions, HCd* and HZr*, significantly reduce the energy barriers of the reaction.

Abstract
The low-temperature reverse water-gas shift (RWGS) reaction faces the following obstacles: low activity and unsatisfactory selectivity. Herein, the dual-active sites of platinum (Pt) clusters and frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) on porous CeO2 nanorods (Ptcluster /PN-CeO2 ) provide an interface-independent pathway to boost high performance RWGS reaction at low temperatures. Mechanistic investigations illustrate that Pt clusters can effectively activate and dissociate H2 . The FLP sites, instead of the metal and support interfaces, not only enhance the strong adsorption and activation of CO2 , but also significantly weaken CO adsorption on FLP to facilitate CO release and suppress the CH4 formation. With the help of hydrogen spillover from Pt to PN-CeO2 , the Ptcluster /PN-CeO2 catalysts achieved a CO yield of 29.6 %, which is very close to the thermodynamic equilibrium yield of CO (29.8 %) at 350 °C. Meanwhile, the Ptcluster /PN-CeO2 catalysts delivered a large turnover frequency of 8720 h-1 . Moreover, Ptcluster /PN-CeO2 operated stably and continuously for at least 840 h. This finding provides a promising path toward optimizing the RWGS reaction.

Abstract
The outstanding capability of Frustrated Lewis Pair (FLP) catalysts to activate small molecules has gained significant attention in recent times. Reactivity of FLP is further extended toward the hydrogenation of various unsaturated species. Over the past decade, this unique catalysis concept has been successfully expanded to heterogeneous catalysis as well. The present review article gives a brief survey on several studies on this field. A thorough discussion on quantum chemical studies concerning the activation of H2 is provided. The role of aromaticity and boron-ligand cooperation on the reactivity of FLP is discussed in the Review. How FLP can activate other small molecules by cooperative action of its Lewis centers is also discussed. Further, the discussion is shifted to the hydrogenation of various unsaturated species and the mechanism regarding this process. It also discusses the latest theoretical advancements in the application of FLP in heterogeneous catalysis across various domains, such as two-dimensional materials, functionalized surfaces, and metal oxides. A deeper understanding of the catalytic process may assist in devising new heterogeneous FLP catalysts through experimental design.

Abstract
Whilst metal borates are well known as optical materials, their potential in solid catalysis has been less investigated. The calcite structured InBO3 was selected as the target borate and was prepared using a solvothermal method. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction prove that the material has a nanoparticle morphology with an average size ∼50 nm and high crystallinity. Intrinsic surface oxygen vacancies, which are beneficial to catalysis, were detected using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Lewis acidity and basicity were both observed using NH3-/CO2-temperature-programmed desorption experiments, and the total acid and base amounts were found to be 46.6 and 123.8 μmol g-1, respectively. Catalytic dehydration and dehydrogenation reactions for isopropanol at elevated temperatures were conducted in a fixed bed reactor to evaluate the catalytic performance of InBO3. InBO3 exhibits a high conversion rate (>90.5%) and, most importantly, a high dehydrogenation selectivity (acetone selectivity >92.5%), whilst the optimal acetone yield achieved was 121.3 mmol h-1 g-1cat at 350 °C. This study on InBO3 strongly suggests that metal borates have promising applications in heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
Designing frustrated Lewis pair (FLP)-structured photocatalysts is a new challenge in catalysis. In particular, the relationship between the active sites and photocatalytic charge transport mechanism over FLP-structured photocatalysts is still ill-defined. In this study, a novel perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide/UiO-66(Ti/Zr)-NH2 (denoted as PDI/TUZr) photocatalyst is successfully constructed using an ammoniation process. The PDI/TUZr heterojunction is equipped with a unique "Zr/Ti SBUs-ligand-PDI" FLP structure and exhibits remarkable catalytic FLP properties. In this "Zr/Ti SBUs-ligand-PDI" structure, the Zr/Ti bimetal centers and PDI serve as Lewis acid and base sites, respectively, and the C-N chemical bond provides a channel for electron transmission, and a bimetallic system facilitates electron transfer from excited ligand to Zr/Ti-SBUs nodes. These superior microstructural designs cooperate to promote substrate activation for photocatalytic antibacterial reactions. Accordingly, 2.2-fold enhancement is achieved in visible photocatalytic antibacterial activity on Staphylococcus aureus for 4%PDI/0.2TUZr composite compared with unadorned UZr. This study provides insights into the formation and carrier transfer behaviors of solid FLP on MOFs and illustrates a rational strategy for the construction of highly efficient photocatalysts.

Abstract
Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs), discovered in the last few decades for homogeneous catalysts and in the last few years also for heterogeneous catalysts, are stimulating the scientific community's interest for their potential in small-molecule activation. Nevertheless, how an FLP activates stable molecules such as CO2 is still undefined. Through a careful spectroscopic study, we here report the formation of FLPs over a highly defective CeO2 sample prepared by microwave-assisted synthesis. Carbon dioxide activation over FLP is shown to occur through a bidentate carbonate bridging the FLP and implying a Ce3+-to-CO2 charge transfer, thus enhancing its activation. Carbon dioxide reaction with methanol to form monomethylcarbonate is here employed to demonstrate active roles of FLP and, eventually, to propose a reaction mechanism clarifying the role of Ce3+ and oxygen vacancies.

Abstract
Nanostructured metal-nitrides have attracted tremendous interest as a new generation of catalysts for electroreduction of CO2, but these structures have limited activity and stability in the reduction condition. Herein, we report a method of fabricating FeN/Fe3N nanoparticles with FeN/Fe3N interface exposed on the NP surface for efficient electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). The FeN/Fe3N interface is populated with Fe-N4 and Fe-N2 coordination sites respectively that show the desired catalysis synergy to enhance the reduction of CO2 to CO. The CO Faraday efficiency reaches 98% at -0.4 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode, and the FE stays stable from -0.4 to -0.9 V during the 100 h electrolysis time period. This FeN/Fe3N synergy arises from electron transfer from Fe3N to FeN and the preferred CO2 adsorption and reduction to *COOH on FeN. Our study demonstrates a reliable interface control strategy to improve catalytic efficiency of the Fe-N structure for CO2RR.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical nitrate reduction reaction (PEC NIRR) could convert the harmful pollutant nitrate (NO3-) to high-value-added ammonia (NH3) under mild conditions. However, the catalysts are currently hindered by the low catalytic activity and slow kinetics. Here, we reported a heterostructure composed of CeO2 and BiVO4, and the "frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs)" concept was introduced for understanding the role of Lewis acids and Lewis bases on PEC NIRR. The electron density difference maps indicated that FLPs were significantly active for the adsorption and activation of NO3-. Furthermore, carbon (C) improved the carrier transport ability and kinetics, contributing to the NH3 yield of 21.81 μg h-1 cm-2. The conversion process of NO3- to NH3 was tracked by 15NO3- and 14NO3- isotopic labeling. Therefore, this study demonstrated the potential of CeO2-C/BiVO4 for efficient PEC NIRR and provided a unique mechanism for the adsorption and activation of NO3- over FLPs.

Abstract
The chemical conversion of CO2 to long-chain chemicals is considered as a highly attractive method to produce value-added organics, while the underlying reaction mechanism remains unclear. By constructing surface vacancy-cluster-mediated solid frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs), the 100 % atom-economical, efficient chemical conversion of CO2 to dimethyl carbonate (DMC) was realized. By taking CeO2 as a model system, we illustrate that FLP sites can efficiently accelerate the coupling and conversion of key intermediates. As demonstrated, CeO2 with rich FLP sites shows improved reaction activity and achieves a high yield of DMC up to 15.3 mmol g-1 . In addition, by means of synchrotron radiation in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier-transform spectroscopy, combined with density functional theory calculations, the reaction mechanism on the FLP site was investigated systematically and in-depth, providing pioneering insights into the underlying pathway for CO2 chemical conversion to long-chain chemicals.

Abstract
Cerium dioxide (CeO2, ceria) has long been regarded as one of the key materials in modern catalysis, both as a support and as a catalyst itself. Apart from its well-established use (three-way catalysts and diesel engines), CeO2 has been widely used as a cocatalyst/catalyst in energy conversion and storage applications. The importance stems from the oxygen storage capacity of ceria, which allows it to release oxygen under reducing conditions and to store oxygen by filling oxygen vacancies under oxidizing conditions. However, the nature of the Ce active site remains not well understood because the degree of participation of f electrons in catalytic reactions is not clear in the case of the heavy dependence of catalysis theory on localized d orbitals at the Fermi energy E F . This review focuses on the catalytic applications in energy conversion and storage of CeO2-based nanostructures and discusses the mechanisms for several typical catalytic reactions from the perspectives of electronic properties of CeO2-based nanostructures. Defect engineering is also summarized to better understand the relationship between catalytic performance and electronic properties. Finally, the challenges and prospects of designing high efficiency CeO2-based catalysts in energy storage and conversion have been emphasized.

Abstract
Designing all-solid heterogeneous catalysts with frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) has aroused great attentions recently because of its appealing low dissociation energy for H2 molecule and thus a promotion of hydrogenation reaction is expected. The sterically encumbered Lewis acid (metal site) and base (nitrogen site) in the cavity of single transition metal atom doped M/C2N sheet makes it potential candidate with FLP, while a comprehensive understanding of its intrinsic property and reactivity is still required. Calculations show that the complete dissociation of H2 molecule into two H* at the N sites requires two steps, i.e., heterolytic cleavage of H2 molecule and the transfer of H* from metal site to N site, which are highly related to the acidity of the metal site. The Ni/C2N and Pd/C2N, which outperform over the other 8 transition metal atom (M) anchored M/C2N candidates, possess low energy barriers for the complete dissociation of H2 molecule, with values of only 0.30 and 0.20 eV, respectively. Furthermore, both Ni/C2N and Pd/C2N catalysts can achieve semi-hydrogenation of C2H2 into C2H4, with overall barriers of 0.81 and 0.75 eV, respectively, lower than many reported catalysts. It is speculated that M/C2N catalysts with intrinsic FLPs may also find applications in other important hydrogenation reaction.

Abstract
Catalytic hydrogenolysis of biobased furan aldehydes (i. e., 5-methylfurfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural) to 2,5-dimethylfuran has gained extensive interest for biomass-derived fuels and chemicals. Herein, a class of NiCo2 O4 -supported palladium with considerable oxygen defects was synthesized by hydrogen plasma etching and phosphating methods. The oxygen defects not only promoted the hydrogenation of the C=O group but also enhanced the accessibility of coordinatively unsaturated metal cations with Lewis acidity for the hydrogenolysis of the C-OH group. Meanwhile, the additional Brønsted acidity in Pd/NiCo2 O4-x obtained by phosphating could further strengthen the hydrogenolysis ability by the etherification route of C-OH. Finally, Pd/NiCo2 O4-x exhibited the most effective performance with 2,5-dimethylfuran yields of 92.9 and 90.5 % from 5-methylfurfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, respectively. These catalytic mechanisms were confirmed by in-situ infrared spectroscopy and control experiments. Furthermore, the catalyst showed outstanding recycling stability. This work shows powerful synergistic catalysis in the hydrogenolysis reaction by multifunctional active sites.

Abstract
Frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) catalysts have attracted much recent interest because of their exceptional ability to activate small molecules in homogeneous catalysis. In the past ten years, this unique catalysis concept has been extended to heterogeneous catalysis, with much success. Herein, we review the recent theoretical advances in understanding FLP-based heterogeneous catalysis in several applications, including metal oxides, functionalized surfaces, and two-dimensional materials. A better understanding of the details of the catalytic mechanism can help in the experimental design of novel heterogeneous FLP catalysts.

Abstract
Ceria (CeO2) has recently been found to catalyze the selective hydrogenation of alkynes, which has stimulated much discussion on the catalytic mechanism on various facets of reducible oxides. In this work, H2 dissociation and acetylene hydrogenation on bare and Ni doped CeO2(110) surfaces are investigated using density functional theory (DFT). Similar to that on the CeO2(111) surface, our results suggest that catalysis is facilitated by frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) formed by oxygen vacancies (Ovs) on the oxide surfaces. On bare CeO2(110) with a single Ov (CeO2(110)-Ov), two surface Ce cations with one non-adjacent O anion are shown to form (Ce3+-Ce4+)/O quasi-FLPs, while for the Ni doped CeO2(110) surface with one (Ni-CeO2(110)-Ov) or two (Ni-CeO2(110)-2Ov) Ovs, one Ce and a non-adjacent O counterions are found to form a mono-Ce/O FLP. DFT calculations indicate that Ce/O FLPs facilitate the H2 dissociation via a heterolytic mechanism, while the resulting surface O-H and Ce-H species catalyze the subsequent acetylene hydrogenation. With CeO2(110)-Ov and Ni-CeO2(110)-2Ov, our DFT calculations suggest that the first hydrogenation step is the rate-determining step with a barrier of 0.43 and 0.40 eV, respectively. For Ni-CeO2(110)-Ov, the reaction is shown to be controlled by the H2 dissociation with a barrier of 0.41 eV. These barriers are significantly lower than that (about 0.7 eV) on CeO2(111), explaining the experimentally observed higher catalytic efficiency of the (110) facet of ceria. The change of the rate-determining step is attributed to the different electronic properties of Ce in the Ce/O FLPs - the Ce f states closer to the Fermi level not only facilitate the heterolytic dissociation of H2 but also lead to a higher barrier of acetylene hydrogenation.

Abstract
The frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) concept in homogeneous catalysis was extended to heterogeneous catalysis via the supramolecular system of FLP between deprotonated zeolite framework oxygens and confined carbocations in methanol-to-olefin (MTO) reactions. In this FLP, the polymethylbenzenium (PMB+ ) functioned as the Lewis acid to accept an electron pair, and the deprotonated framework oxygen site acted as the Lewis base to donate an electron pair. This FLP theoretically demonstrated the ability to undergo H2 heterolysis and alkanes dehydrogenation, and this was further confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) catalytic experiments inside FLP-containing chabazite zeolites. All these findings not only bring new recognition to the carbocation chemistry in zeolite cages but also put forward a new reaction pathway as one part of MTO reactions.

Abstract
In this work, the H2 dissociation and acetylene hydrogenation on Cu doped CeO2(111) were studied using density functional theory calculations. The results indicated that Cu doping promotes the formation of oxygen vacancy (Ov) which creates Cu/O and Ce/O frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs). With the help of Cu/O FLP, H2 dissociation can firstly proceed via a heterolytic mechanism to produce Cu-H and O-H by overcoming a barrier of 0.40 eV. The H on Cu can facilely migrate to a nearby oxygen to form another O-H species with a barrier of 0.43 eV. The rate-determining barrier is lower than that for homolytic dissociation of H2 which produces two O-H species. C2H2 hydrogenation can proceed with a rate-determining barrier of 1.00 eV at the presence of Cu-H and O-H species., While C2H2 can be catalyzed by two O-H groups with a rate-determining barrier of 1.06 eV, which is significantly lower than that (2.86 eV) of C2H2 hydrogenated by O-H groups on the bare CeO2(111), showing the high activity of Cu doped CeO2(111) for acetylene hydrogenation. In addition, the rate-determining barrier of C2H4 further hydrogenated by two O-H groups is 1.53 eV, much higher than its desorption energy (0.72 eV), suggesting the high selectivity of Cu doped CeO2(111) for C2H2 partial hydrogenation. This provides new insights to develop effective hydrogenation catalysts based on metal oxide.

Abstract
Understanding the unique behaviors of atomically dispersed catalysts and the origin thereof is a challenging topic. Herein, we demonstrate a facile strategy to encapsulate Ptδ+ species within Y zeolite and reveal the nature of selective hydrogenation over a Pt@Y model catalyst. The unique configuration of Pt@Y, namely atomically dispersed Ptδ+ stabilized by the surrounding oxygen atoms of six-membered rings shared by sodalite cages and supercages, enables the exclusive heterolytic activation of dihydrogen over Ptδ+···O2- units, resembling the well-known classical Lewis pairs. The charged hydrogen species, i.e., H+ and Hδ-, are active reagents for selective hydrogenations, and therefore, the Pt@Y catalyst exhibits remarkable performance in the selective hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes to unsaturated alcohols and of nitroarenes to arylamines.

Abstract
The articulation of the notion of "frustrated Lewis pairs" (FLPs) emerged from the discovery that H2 can be reversibly activated by combinations of sterically encumbered main group Lewis acids and bases. This has prompted numerous studies focused on various perturbations of the Lewis acid/base combinations and the applications to organic reductions. This Perspective focuses on the new directions and developments that are emerging from this FLP chemistry involving hydrogen. Three areas are discussed including new applications and approaches to FLP reductions, the reductions of small molecules, and the advances in heterogeneous FLP systems. These foci serve to illustrate that despite having its roots in main group chemistry, this simple concept of FLPs is being applied across the discipline.

Abstract
Tuning surface reactivity of catalysts is an effective strategy to enhance catalytic activity towards a chemical reaction. Traditional reactivity tuning usually relies on a change of the catalyst composition, especially when large-scale tuning is desired. Here, based on density functional theory calculations, we provide a strategy for flexible large-scale tuning of surface reactivity, i.e. from a few tenths of electronvolts (eV) to multiple eV, merely through manipulating the phase, thickness, and support of two-dimensional (2D) ZnO films. 2D ZnO films have three typical phases, i.e. graphene, wurtzite, and body-centered-tetragonal structures, whose intrinsic stability strongly depends on the thickness and/or the chemical nature of the support. We show that the adsorption energy of hydrogen differs by up to 3 eV on these three phases. For the same phase, varying the film thickness and/or support can lead to a few tenths of eV to 2 eV tuning of surface reactivity. We further demonstrate that flexible large-scale tuning of surface reactivity has a profound impact on the reaction kinetics, including breaking the Brønsted-Evans-Polanyi relationship.

Abstract
Improving the reaction selectivity and activity for challenging substrates such as nitroaromatics bearing two reducible functional groups is important in industry, yet remains a great challenge using traditional metal nanoparticle based catalysts. In this study, single metal atom doped M-C2N catalysts were theoretically screened for selective hydrogenation of 3-nitrostyrene to 3-vinylaniline with H2 as the H-source. Among 20 M-C2N catalysts, the non-noble Mn-C2N catalyst was found to have excellent reaction selectivity. Importantly, due to the solid frustrated Lewis pair sites in the pores of Mn-C2N, a low H2 activation energy is achieved on high-spin Mn-C2N and the rate-determining step for the hydrogenation reactions is the H diffusion from the metal site to the N site. The unraveled mechanism of the hydrogenation of 3-nitrostyrene using Mn-C2N enriches the applications of Mn based catalysts and demonstrates its excellent properties for catalyzing the challenging hydrogenation reaction of substrates with two reducible functional groups.

Abstract
As a part of photocatalytic water splitting, the design of low-cost, high-activity catalysts plays an essential role in the development of photocatalytic water splitting. Metal oxides have the advantages of a wide range of sources, many varieties, and easy preparation. Doping engineering on their surface can construct new active sites and adjust their catalytic activity. In this work, a new strategy was developed through anion hybridization to regulate electron delocalization. Using one of the cobalt-based zeolitic imidazole skeletons (ZIF-67) as a precursor material, a two-step calcination method was used to prepare a P-doped Co3O4 mixed anion composite photocatalyst. The hydrogen production rate of P@Co3O4 is 39 times that of ZIF-67 and 6.8 times that of Co3O4. Through density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the electron delocalization state of the sample surface is predicted and the reaction energy barrier is reduced to promote the process of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The special O(δ-)-Co(δ+)-P(δ-) surface bonding state promotes the bridging of isolated electronic states and provides active sites for the adsorption and activation of reaction substrates. The improved electron transport pathway and the synergy between the catalytic sites under the high electron transport rate are the main reasons for the enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity. This strategy, including changing the surface bond state and optimizing the structure and composition of the catalyst not only provides a new method for preparing other MOF-derived nanomaterials with porous structures but also inspires the reasonable development of other MOF-based advanced photocatalysts.

Abstract
To study the dependence of the relative stability of surface (VA) and subsurface (VB) oxygen vacancies with the crystal facet of CeO2, the reduced (100), (110) and (111) surfaces, with two different concentrations of vacancies, were investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT + U) calculations. The results show that the trend in the near-surface vacancy formation energies for comparable vacancy spacings, i.e. (110) < (100) < (111), does not follow the one in the surface stability of the facets, i.e. (111) < (110) < (100). The results also reveal that the preference of vacancies for surface or subsurface sites, as well as the preferred location of the associated Ce3+polarons, are facet- and concentration-dependent. At the higher vacancy concentration, theVAis more stable than theVBat the (110) facet whereas at the (111), it is the other way around, and at the (100) facet, both theVAand theVBhave similar stability. The stability of theVAvacancies, compared to that of theVB, is accentuated as the concentration decreases. Nearest neighbor polarons to the vacant sites are only observed for the less densely packed (110) and (100) facets. These findings are rationalized in terms of the packing density of the facets, the lattice relaxation effects induced by vacancy formation and the localization of the excess charge, as well as the repulsive Ce3+-Ce3+interactions.

Abstract
A novel stable donor/acceptor-supported MnI -metallasilanone 3 was synthesized. The intramolecular silanone-MnI interaction induces a highly strained three-membered cyclic structure, leading to an exceptionally high reactivity of 3 as a donor/acceptor complex of silanone. Indeed, metallasilanone 3 readily reacts with various small molecules such as H2 or ethylene gas in mild conditions.
