Abstract
This study reveals that, when two hydrogen atoms are produced on the surface of a catalyst (e. g., a metal nanoparticle) upon dissociation of a parahydrogen molecule, their initial nuclear spin correlation can propagate in a branching-chain fashion as they diffuse and combine with random H atoms to produce H2 molecules, which subsequently dissociate. This process leads to a gradual dilution of the non-equilibrium nuclear spin order, but the number of involved H atoms that share the spin order becomes larger. These conclusions, confirmed by the spin density matrix calculations, may be relevant in the context of parahydrogen-induced polarization (PHIP) in heterogeneous hydrogenations catalyzed by supported metal catalysts, the observation of which apparently contradicts the accepted non-pairwise mechanism of the addition of hydrogen to an unsaturated substrate over such catalysts. The potential consequences of the reported findings are discussed in the context of PHIP effects and beyond.

First synthesis of RuSn solid-solution alloy nanoparticles and their enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction activity. Chem Sci 2024; 15:7560-7567. [PMID: 38784732 PMCID: PMC11110130 DOI: 10.1039/d3sc06786f] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Solid-solution alloys based on platinum group metals and p-block metals have attracted much attention due to their promising potential as materials with a continuously fine-tunable electronic structure. Here, we report on the first synthesis of novel solid-solution RuSn alloy nanoparticles (NPs) by electrochemical cyclic voltammetry sweeping of RuSn@SnOx NPs. High-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy maps confirmed the random and homogeneous distribution of Ru and Sn elements in the alloy NPs. Compared with monometallic Ru NPs, the RuSn alloy NPs showed improved hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance. The overpotentials of Ru0.94Sn0.06 NPs/C and Ru0.87Sn0.13 NPs/C to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm-2 were 43.41 and 33.19 mV, respectively, which are lower than those of monometallic Ru NPs/C (53.53 mV) and commercial Pt NPs/C (55.77 mV). The valence-band structures of the NPs investigated by hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrated that the d-band centre of RuSn NPs shifted downward compared with that of Ru NPs. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near-edge structure analyses indicated that in the RuSn alloy NPs, charge transfer occurs from Sn to Ru, which was considered to result in a downward shift of the d-band centre in RuSn NPs and to regulate the adsorption energy of intermediate Hads effectively, and thus enable the RuSn solid-solution alloy NPs to exhibit excellent HER catalytic properties.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance techniques are successfully utilized in a broad range of scientific disciplines and in various practical applications, with medical magnetic resonance imaging being the most widely known example. Currently, both fundamental and applied magnetic resonance are enjoying a major boost owing to the rapidly developing field of spin hyperpolarization. Hyperpolarization techniques are able to enhance signal intensities in magnetic resonance by several orders of magnitude, and thus to largely overcome its major disadvantage of relatively low sensitivity. This provides new impetus for existing applications of magnetic resonance and opens the gates to exciting new possibilities. In this review, we provide a unified picture of the many methods and techniques that fall under the umbrella term "hyperpolarization" but are currently seldom perceived as integral parts of the same field. Specifically, before delving into the individual techniques, we provide a detailed analysis of the underlying principles of spin hyperpolarization. We attempt to uncover and classify the origins of hyperpolarization, to establish its sources and the specific mechanisms that enable the flow of polarization from a source to the target spins. We then give a more detailed analysis of individual hyperpolarization techniques: the mechanisms by which they work, fundamental and technical requirements, characteristic applications, unresolved issues, and possible future directions. We are seeing a continuous growth of activity in the field of spin hyperpolarization, and we expect the field to flourish as new and improved hyperpolarization techniques are implemented. Some key areas for development are in prolonging polarization lifetimes, making hyperpolarization techniques more generally applicable to chemical/biological systems, reducing the technical and equipment requirements, and creating more efficient excitation and detection schemes. We hope this review will facilitate the sharing of knowledge between subfields within the broad topic of hyperpolarization, to help overcome existing challenges in magnetic resonance and enable novel applications.

Abstract
Alloying has long been used as a promising methodology to improve the catalytic performance of metallic materials. In recent years, the field of alloy catalysis has made remarkable progress with the emergence of a variety of novel alloy materials and their functions. Therefore, a comprehensive disciplinary framework for catalytic chemistry of alloys that provides a cross-sectional understanding of the broad research field is in high demand. In this review, we provide a comprehensive classification of various alloy materials based on metallurgy, thermodynamics, and inorganic chemistry and summarize the roles of alloying in catalysis and its principles with a brief introduction of the historical background of this research field. Furthermore, we explain how each type of alloy can be used as a catalyst material and how to design a functional catalyst for the target reaction by introducing representative case studies. This review includes two approaches, namely, from materials and reactions, to provide a better understanding of the catalytic chemistry of alloys. Our review offers a perspective on this research field and can be used encyclopedically according to the readers' individual interests.

Abstract
Hydroformylation is an imperative chemical process traditionally catalyzed by homogeneous catalysts. Designing a heterogeneous catalyst with high activity and selectivity in hydroformylation is challenging but essential to allow the convenient separation and recycling of precious catalysts. Here, we report the development of an outstanding catalyst for efficient heterogeneous hydroformylation, RhZn intermetallic nanoparticles. In the hydroformylation of styrene, it shows three times higher turnover frequency (3090 h-1) compared to the benchmark homogeneous Wilkinson's catalyst (966 h-1), as well as a high chemoselectivity toward aldehyde products. RhZn is active for a variety of olefin substrates and can be recycled without a significant loss of activity. Density functional theory calculations show that the RhZn surfaces reduce the binding strength of reaction intermediates and have lower hydroformylation activation energy barriers compared to pure Rh(111), leading to more favorable reaction energetics on RhZn. The calculations also predict potential catalyst design strategies to achieve high regioselectivity.

Abstract
Transition-metal-free Zintl-Klemm phases have received little attention as heterogeneous catalysis. Here, we show that a large family of structurally and electronically similar layered Zintl-Klemm phases built from honeycomb layers of group 13 triel (Tr) or group 14 tetrel (Tt) networks separated by electropositive cations (A) and having a stoichiometry of ATr2 or ATrTt (A = Ca, Ba, Y, La, Eu; Tr = Ga, In; Tt = Si, Ge) exhibit varying degrees of activity for the hydrogenation of phenylacetylene to styrene and ethylbenzene at 51 bar H2 and 40-100 °C across a variety of solvents. The most active catalysts contain Ga with, formally, a half-filled pz orbital, and minimal bonding between neighboring Tr2 or TrTt layers. A 13-layer trigonal polytype of CaGaGe (13T-CaGaGe) was the most active, cyclable, and robust catalyst and under modest conditions (1 atm H2, 40 °C) had a surface specific activity (590 h-1) comparable to a commercial Lindlar's catalyst. Additionally, 13T-CaGaGe maintained 100% conversion of phenylacetylene to styrene at 51 bar H2, even after 5 months of air exposure. This work reveals the structural design elements that lead to particularly high catalytic activity in Zintl-Klemm phases, further establishing them as a promising materials platform for hydrogen-based heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
Intermetallic alloy nanocrystals have emerged as a promising next generation of nanocatalyst, largely due to their promise of surface tunability. Atomic control of the geometric and electronic structure of the nanoparticle surface offers a precise command of the catalytic surface, with the potential for creating homogeneous active sites that extend over the entire nanoparticle. Realizing this promise, however, has been limited by synthetic difficulties, imparted by differences in parent metal crystal structure, reduction potential, and atomic size. Further, little attention has been paid to the impact of synthetic method on catalytic application. In this review, we seek to connect the two, organizing the current synthesis methods and catalytic scope of intermetallic nanoparticles and suggesting areas where more work is needed. Such analysis should help to guide future intermetallic nanoparticle development, with the ultimate goal of generating precisely controlled nanocatalysts tailored to catalysis.
