Abstract
The formation of dimer-Cu species, which serve as the active sites of the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction of NOx with NH3 (NH3-SCR), relies on the mobility of CuI species in the channels of the Cu-SSZ-13 catalysts. Herein, the key role of framework Brønsted acid sites in the mobility of reactive Cu ions was elucidated via a combination of density functional theory calculations, in situ impedance spectroscopy, and in situ diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. When the number of framework Al sites decreases, the Brønsted acid sites decrease, leading to a systematic increase in the diffusion barrier for [Cu(NH3)2]+ and less formation of highly reactive dimer-Cu species, which inhibits the low-temperature NH3-SCR reactivity and vice versa. When the spatial distribution of Al sites is uneven, the [Cu(NH3)2]+ complexes tend to migrate from an Al-poor cage to an Al-rich cage (e.g., cage with paired Al sites), which effectively accelerates the formation of dimer-Cu species and hence promotes the SCR reaction. These findings unveil the mechanism by which framework Brønsted acid sites influence the intercage diffusion and reactivity of [Cu(NH3)2]+ complexes in Cu-SSZ-13 catalysts and provide new insights for the development of zeolite-based catalysts with excellent SCR activity by regulating the microscopic spatial distribution of framework Brønsted acid sites.

Abstract
A key challenge for metal-exchanged zeolites is the determination of metal cation speciation and nuclearity under synthesis and reaction conditions. Copper-exchanged zeolites, which are widely used in automotive emissions control and potential catalysts for partial methane oxidation, have in particular evidenced a wide variety of Cu structures that are observed to change with exposure conditions, zeolite composition, and topology. Here, we develop predictive models for Cu cation speciation and nuclearity in CHA, MOR, BEA, AFX, and FER zeolite topologies using interatomic potentials, quantum chemical calculations, and Monte Carlo simulations to interrogate this vast configurational and compositional space. Model predictions are used to rationalize experimentally observed differences between Cu-zeolites in a wide-body of literature, including nuclearity populations, structural variations, and methanol per Cu yields. Our results show that both topological features and commonly observed Al-siting biases in MOR zeolites increase the population of binuclear Cu sites, explaining the small population of mononuclear Cu sites observed in these materials relative to other zeolites such as CHA and BEA. Finally, we used a machine learning classification model to determine the preference to form mononuclear or binuclear Cu sites at different Al configurations in 200 zeolites in the international zeolite database. Model results reveal several zeolite topologies at extreme ends of the mononuclear vs binuclear spectrum, highlighting synthetic options for realization of zeolites with strong Cu nuclearity preferences.

Abstract
Relevant virulence traits in Candida spp. are associated with dimorphic change and biofilm formation, which became an important target to reduce antifungal resistance. In this work, Co(II) complexes containing a benzotriazole derivative ligand showed a promising capacity of reducing these virulence traits. These complexes exhibited higher antifungal activities than the free ligands against all the Candida albicans and non-albicans strains tested, where compounds 2 and 4 showed minimum inhibitory concentration values between 15.62 and 125 μg mL-1. Moreover, four complexes (2-5) of Co(II) and Cu(II) with benzotriazole ligand were synthesized. These compounds were obtained as air-stable solids and characterized by melting point, thermogravimetric analysis, infrared, Raman and ultraviolet/visible spectroscopy. The analysis of the characterization data allowed us to identify that all the complexes had 1:1 (M:L) stoichiometries. Additionally, Density Functional Theory calculations were carried out for 2 and 3 to propose a probable geometry of both compounds. The conformer Da of 2 was the most stable conformer according to the Energy Decomposition Analysis; while the conformers of 3 have a fluxional behavior in this analysis that did not allow us to determine the most probable conformer. These results provide an important platform for the design of new compounds with antifungal activities and the capacity to attack other target of relevance to reduce antimicrobial resistance.

Abstract
By employing first principles calculations, we have studied the electronic structures of pristine (α1) and different defective (α1-t1, α1-t2) borophene sheets to understand the efficacy of such systems as metal-free electrocatalysts for the CO2 reduction reaction. Among the three studied systems, only α1-t1, the defective borophene sheet created by removal of a 5-coordinated boron atom, can chemisorb and activate a CO2 molecule for its subsequent reduction processes, leading to different C1 chemicals, followed by selective conversion into C2 products by multiple proton coupled electron transfer steps. The computed onset potentials for the C1 chemicals such as CH3OH and CH4 are low enough. On the other hand, in the case of the C2 reduction process, the C-C coupling barrier is only 0.80 eV in the solvent phase which produces CH3CHO and CH3CH2OH with very low onset potential values of -0.21 and -0.24 V, respectively, suppressing the competing hydrogen evolution reaction.

Abstract
A highly selective probe for copper(II) detection based on the dansyl group was theoretically studied by means of (time-dependent) density functional theory. The calculated results indicated that the oscillator strength of the fluorescent process for the probe molecule is considerably large, but the counterpart of its copper(II) complex is nearly zero; therefore, the predicted radiative rate kr of the probe is several orders of magnitude larger than that of its complex; however, the predicted internal conversion rate kic of both the probe and its complex is of the same order of magnitude. In addition, the simulated intersystem crossing rate kisc of the complex is much greater than that of the probe due to the effect of heavy atom from the copper atom in the complex. Based on the above information, the calculated fluorescence quantum yield of the probe is 0.16% and that of the complex becomes 10-6%, which implies that the first excited state of the probe is bright state and that of the complex is dark state. For the complex, the hole-electron pair analysis indicates that the process of S0 → S1 belongs to metal-to-ligand charge transfer; its density-of-state diagram visually illustrates that the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) contains the ingredient of the s orbital from the copper atom, which decreases the frontier orbital energy level and the overlap integral of HOMO and LUMO.

Strikingly distinctive NH 3-SCR behavior over Cu-SSZ-13 in the presence of NO 2. Nat Commun 2022; 13:4606.

Abstract
Commercial Cu-exchanged small-pore SSZ-13 (Cu-SSZ-13) zeolite catalysts are highly active for the standard selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3. However, their activity is unexpectedly inhibited in the presence of NO2 at low temperatures. This is strikingly distinct from the NO2-accelerated NOx conversion over other typical SCR catalyst systems. Here, we combine kinetic experiments, in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to obtain direct evidence that under reaction conditions, strong oxidation by NO2 forces Cu ions to exist mainly as CuII species (fw-Cu2+ and NH3-solvated CuII with high CNs), which impedes the mobility of Cu species. The SCR reaction occurring at these CuII sites with weak mobility shows a higher energy barrier than that of the standard SCR reaction on dynamic binuclear sites. Moreover, the NO2-involved SCR reaction tends to occur at the Brønsted acid sites (BASs) rather than the CuII sites. This work clearly explains the strikingly distinctive selective catalytic behavior in this zeolite system. Cu-SSZ-13 zeolites are highly active for standard NH3-SCR, but their activity is unexpectedly inhibited in the presence of NO2. This work demonstrates that strong oxidation by NO2 forces Cu ions to exist mainly as CuII species with low mobility, which is responsible for this distinctive behavior.

Abstract
Pd-doped chabazite (Pd/CHA) offers unique opportunities to adsorb and desorb NOx in the target temperature range for application as a passive NOx adsorber (PNA). The ability of Pd/CHA to trap NOx emissions at low temperatures (<200 °C) is facilitated by the binding of NOx species at various Pd sites available in the CHA framework. Density functional theory (DFT) simulations are performed to understand Pd speciation in CHA and the interaction of NO with Pd/CHA to explain the mechanisms of NO adsorption, oxidation, and desorption processes. The calculations are used to elucidate the important role of Pd1+ cationic species, anchored at 6MR-3NN, in providing a strong (Eb = -272 kJ/mol) NO adsorption site in Pd/CHA. For NO release, the redox transformation of Pd species comes into play and Pd1+ species are suggested to transform into cationic Pd2+, [PdOH]+, or [Pd-O-Pd]2+ species, all of which show significantly reduced NO binding (-116, -153, and -117 kJ/mol, respectively) as compared to Pd1+. This enables NO desorption at the operating temperature of a downstream catalyst for subsequent catalytic reduction.

Abstract
NH3 temperature-programmed desorption (NH3 -TPD) is frequently used for probing the nature of the active sites in CuSSZ-13 zeolite for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx . Herein, we propose an interpretation of NH3 -TPD results, which takes into account the temperature-induced dynamics of NH3 interaction with the active centers. It is based on a comprehensive DFT/GGA+D and first-principles thermodynamic (FPT) modeling of NH3 adsorption on single Cu2+ , Cu+ , [CuOH]+ centers, dimeric [Cu-O-Cu]2+ , [Cu-O2 2- -Cu]2 species, segregated CuO nanocrystals and Brønsted acid sites (BAS). Theoretical TPD profiles are compared with the experimental data measured for samples of various Si/Al ratios and distribution of Al within the zeolite framework. Copper reduction, its relocation, followed by the intrazeolite olation/oxolation processes, which are concomitant with NH3 desorption, were revealed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and IR. DFT/FPT results show that the peaks in the desorption profiles cannot be assigned univocally to the particular Cu and BAS centers, since the observed low-, medium- and high-temperature desorption bands have contributions coming from several species, which dynamically change their speciation and redox states during NH3 -TPD experiment. Thus, a rigorous interpretation of the NH3 -TPD profiles of CuSSZ-13 in terms of the strength and concentration of the active centers of a particular type is problematic. Nonetheless, useful connections for molecular interpretation of TPD profiles can be established between the individual component peaks and the corresponding ensembles of the adsorption centers.

Abstract
Hybrid density functionals replace a fraction of an underlying generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) exchange description with a Fock-exchange component. Range-separated hybrids (RSHs) also effectively screen the Fock-exchange component and thus open the door for characterizations of metals and adsorption at metal surfaces. The RSHs are traditionally based on a robust GGA, such as PBE (Perdew J Pet al1996Phys. Rev. Lett.773865), for example, as implemented in the HSE design (Heyd Jet al2003J. Chem. Phys.1188207). Here we define an analytical-hole (Henderson T Met al2008J. Chem. Phys.128194105) consistent-exchange RSH extension to the van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF) method (Berland Ket al2015Rep. Prog. Phys.78066501), launching vdW-DF-ahcx. We characterize the GGA-type exchange in the vdW-DF-cx version (Berland K and Hyldgaard P 2014Phys. Rev. B89035412), isolate the short-ranged exchange component, and define the new vdW-DF hybrid. We find that the performance vdW-DF-ahcx compares favorably to (dispersion-corrected) HSE for descriptions of bulk (broad molecular) properties. We also find that it provides accurate descriptions of noble-metal surface properties, including CO adsorption.

Abstract
We report a detailed density functional theory (DFT) study of the geometrical and electronic properties, and the growth mechanism of a Cun (n = 1-4) cluster on a stoichiometric, and especially on a defective CeO2(110) surface with one surface oxygen vacancy, without using pre-assumed gas-phase Cun cluster shapes. This gives new and valuable theoretical insight into experimental work regarding debatable active sites of promising CuOx/CeO2-nanorod catalysts in many reactions. We demonstrate that CeO2(110) is highly reducible upon Cun adsorption, with electron transfer from Cun clusters, and that a Cun cluster grows along the long bridge sites until Cu3, so that each Cu atom can interact strongly with surface oxygen ions at these sites, forming stable structures on both stoichiometric and defective CeO2(110) surface. Cu-Cu interactions are, however, limited, since Cu atoms are distant from each other, inhibiting the formation of Cu-Cu bonds. This monolayer then begins to grow into a bilayer as seen in the Cu3 to Cu4 transition, with long-bridge site Cu as anchoring sites. Our calculations on Cu4 adsorption reveal a Cu bilayer rich in Cu+ species at the Cu-O interface.

Abstract
As transportation continues to increase world-wide, there is a need for more efficient utilization of fossil fuel. One possibility is direct conversion of the solution gas bi-product CH4 into an energy-rich, easily usable liquid fuel such as CH3OH. However, new catalytic materials to facilitate the methane-to-methanol reaction are needed. Using density functional calculations, the partial oxidation of methane is investigated over the small-pore copper-exchanged zeolite SSZ-13. The reaction pathway is identified and the energy landscape elucidated over the proposed motifs Z2[Cu2O] and Z2[Cu2OH]. It is shown that the Z2[Cu2O] motif has an exergonic reaction path, provided water is added as a solvent for the desorption step. However, a micro-kinetic model shows that neither Z2[Cu2O] nor Z2[Cu2OH] has any notable activity under the reaction conditions. These findings highlight the importance of the detailed structure of the active site and that the most stable motif is not necessarily the most active.

Abstract
The NH3-mediated selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) of NOx over Cu-ion-exchanged chabazite (Cu-CHA) catalysts is the basis of the technology for abatement of NOx from diesel vehicles. A crucial step in this reaction is the activation of oxygen. Under conditions for low-temperature NH3-SCR, oxygen only reacts with CuI ions, which are present as mobile CuI diamine complexes [CuI(NH3)2]+. To determine the structure and reactivity of the species formed by oxidation of these CuI diamine complexes with oxygen at 200 °C, we have followed this reaction, using a Cu-CHA catalyst with a Si/Al ratio of 15 and 2.6 wt% Cu, by X-ray absorption spectroscopies (XANES and EXAFS) and diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy, with the support of DFT calculations and advanced EXAFS wavelet transform analysis. The results provide unprecedented direct evidence for the formation of a [Cu2(NH3)4O2]2+ mobile complex with a side-on μ-η2,η2-peroxo diamino dicopper(II) structure, accounting for 80-90% of the total Cu content. These [Cu2(NH3)4O2]2+ are completely reduced to [CuI(NH3)2]+ at 200 °C in a mixture of NO and NH3. Some N2 is formed as well, which suggests the role of the dimeric complexes in the low-temperature NH3-SCR reaction. The reaction of [Cu2(NH3)4O2]2+ complexes with NH3 leads to a partial reduction of the Cu without any formation of N2. The reaction with NO results in an almost complete reduction to CuI, under the formation of N2. This indicates that the low-temperature NH3-SCR reaction proceeds via a reaction of these complexes with NO.

Abstract
ConspectusCopper-exchanged chabazite (Cu-CHA) zeolites are catalysts used in diesel emissions control for the abatement of nitrogen oxides (NOx) via selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reactions with ammonia as the reductant. The discovery of these materials in the early 2010s enabled a step-change improvement in diesel emissions aftertreatment technology. Key advantages of Cu-CHA zeolites over prior materials include their effectiveness at the lower temperatures characteristic of diesel exhaust, their durability under high-temperature hydrothermal conditions, and their resistance to poisoning from residual hydrocarbons present in exhaust. Fundamental catalysis research has since uncovered mechanistic and kinetic features that underpin the ability of Cu-CHA to selectively reduce NOx under strongly oxidizing conditions and to achieve improved NOx conversion relative to other zeolite frameworks, particularly at low exhaust temperatures and with ammonia instead of other reductants.One critical mechanistic feature is the NH3 solvation of exchanged Cu ions at low temperatures (<523 K) to create cationic Cu-amine coordination complexes that are ionically tethered to anionic Al framework sites. This ionic tethering confers regulated mobility that facilitates interconversion between mononuclear and binuclear Cu complexes, which is necessary to propagate SCR through a Cu2+/Cu+ redox cycle during catalytic turnover. This dynamic catalytic mechanism, wherein single and dual metal sites interconvert to mediate different half-reactions of the redox cycle, combines features canonically associated with homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction mechanisms.In this Account, we describe how a unified experimental and theoretical interrogation of Cu-CHA catalysts in operando provided quantitative evidence of regulated Cu ion mobility and its role in the SCR mechanism. This approach relied on new synthetic methods to prepare model Cu-CHA zeolites with varied active-site structures and spatial densities in order to verify that the kinetic and mechanistic models describe the catalytic behavior of a family of materials of diverse composition, and on new computational approaches to capture the active-site structure and dynamics under conditions representative of catalysis. Ex situ interrogation revealed that the Cu structure depends on the conditions for the zeolite synthesis, which influence the framework Al substitution patterns, and that statistical and electronic structure models can enumerate Cu site populations for a known Al distribution. This recognition unifies seemingly disparate spectroscopic observations and inferences regarding Cu ion structure and responses to different external conditions. SCR rates depend strongly on the Cu spatial density and zeolite composition in kinetic regimes where Cu+ oxidation with O2 becomes rate-limiting, as occurs at lower temperatures and under fuel-rich conditions. Transient experiments, ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, and statistical models relate these sensitivities to the mobility constraints imposed by the CHA framework on NH3-solvated Cu ions, which regulate the pore volume accessible to these ions and their ability to pair and complete the catalytic cycle. This highlights the key characteristics of the CHA framework that enable superior performance under low-temperature SCR reaction conditions.This work illustrates the power of precise control over a catalytic material, simultaneous kinetic and spectroscopic interrogation over a wide range of reaction conditions, and computational strategies tailored to capture those reaction conditions to reveal in microscopic detail the mechanistic features of a complex and widely practiced catalysis. In doing so, it highlights the key role of ion mobility in catalysis and thus potentially a more general phenomenon of reactant solvation and active site mobilization in reactions catalyzed by exchanged metal ions in zeolites.
