Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202312076. [PMID: 37667537 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202312076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 09/03/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/06/2023]
Abstract
The effective conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) and nitrogen (N2 ) into urea by photocatalytic reaction under mild conditions is considered to be a more environmentally friendly and promising alternative strategies. However, the weak adsorption and activation ability of inert gas on photocatalysts has become the main challenge that hinder the advancement of this technique. Herein, we have successfully established mesoporous CeO2-x nanorods with adjustable oxygen vacancy concentration by heat treatment in Ar/H2 (90 % : 10 %) atmosphere, enhancing the targeted adsorption and activation of N2 and CO2 by introducing oxygen vacancies. Particularly, CeO2 -500 (CeO2 nanorods heated treatment at 500 °C) revealed high photocatalytic activity toward the C-N coupling reaction for urea synthesis with a remarkable urea yield rate of 15.5 μg/h. Besides, both aberration corrected transmission electron microscopy (AC-TEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy were used to research the atomic surface structure of CeO2 -500 at high resolution and to monitor the key intermediate precursors generated. The reaction mechanism of photocatalytic C-N coupling was studied in detail by combining Density Functional Theory (DFT) with specific experiments. We hope this work provides important inspiration and guiding significance towards highly efficient photocatalytic synthesis of urea.

Molecules 2023; 28:5930. [PMID: 37570900 PMCID: PMC10421505 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28155930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2023] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Propane catalytic oxidation is an important industrial chemical process. However, poor activity is frequently observed for stable C-H bonds, especially for non-noble catalysts in low temperature. Herein, we reported a controlled synthesis of catalyst Co3O4@CeO2-IE via inverse loading and proposed a strategy of oxygen vacancy for its high catalytic oxidation activity, achieving better performance than traditional supported catalyst Co3O4/CeO2-IM, i.e., the T50 (temperature at 50% propane conversion) of 217 °C vs. 235 °C and T90 (temperature at 90% propane conversion) of 268 °C vs. 348 °C at the propane space velocity of 60,000 mL g-1 h-1. Further investigations indicate that there are more enriched oxygen vacancies in Co3O4@CeO2-IE due to the unique preparation method. This work provides an element doping strategy to effectively boost the propane catalytic oxidation performance as well as a bright outlook for efficient environmental catalysts.

Abstract
NOx, SOx, and carbonaceous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are extremely harmful to the environment, and their concentrations must be within the limits prescribed by the region-specific pollution control boards. Thus, NOx, SOx, and VOC abatement is essential to safeguard the environment. Considering the importance of NOx, SOx, and VOC abatement, the discussion on selective catalytic reduction, oxidation, redox methods, and adsorption using noble metal and non-noble metal-based catalytic approaches were elaborated. This article covers different thermal treatment techniques, category of materials as catalysts, and its structure-property insights along with the advanced oxidation processes and adsorption. The defect engineered catalysts with lattice oxygen vacancies, bi- and tri-metallic noble metal catalysts and non-noble metal catalysts, modified metal organic frameworks, mixed-metal oxide supports, and their mechanisms have been thoroughly reviewed. The main hurdles and potential achievements in developing novel simultaneous NOx, SOx, and VOC removal technologies are critically discussed to envisage the future directions. This review highlights the removal of NOx, SOx, and VOC through material selection, properties, and mechanisms to further improve the existing abatement methods in an efficient way.

Abstract
The influence of manganese modification on the spectroscopic features of manganese-doped CeO2 systems synthesized by the microwave-assisted hydrothermal route and their correlation with the presence of O defective structures were verified, focusing on their interaction with poisonous atmospheres. Raman and electron paramagnetic resonance studies confirmed the presence of defective clusters formed by dipoles and/or quadrupoles. The number of paramagnetic species was found to be inversely proportional to the doping concentration, resulting in an increase in the Mn2+ signal, likely due to the reduction of Mn3+ species after the interaction with CO. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data showed the pure system with 33% of its cerium species in the Ce3+ configuration, with an abrupt decrease to 19%, after the first modification with Mn, suggesting that 14% of the Ce3+ species are donating one electron to the Mn2+ ions, thus becoming nonparamagnetic Ce4+ species. On the contrary, 58% of the manganese species remain in the Mn2+ configuration with five unpaired electrons, corroborating the paramagnetic feature of the samples seen in the electron paramagnetic resonance study.

Abstract
CeXO2 (X: Fe, Mn) nanoparticles, synthesized using the coprecipitation route, were investigated for their structural, morphological, magnetic, and electrochemical properties using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission transmission electron microscopy (FE-TEM), dc magnetization, and cyclic voltammetry methods. The single-phase formation of CeO2 nanoparticles with FCC fluorite structure was confirmed by the Rietveld refinement, indicating the successful incorporation of Fe and Mn in the CeO2 matrix with the reduced dimensions and band gap values. The Raman analysis supported the lowest band gap of Fe-doped CeO2 on account of oxygen non-stoichiometry. The samples exhibited weak room temperature ferromagnetism, which was found to be enhanced in the Fe doped CeO2. The NEXAFS analysis supported the results by revealing the oxidation state of Fe to be Fe2+/Fe3+ in Fe-doped CeO2 nanoparticles. Further, the room temperature electrochemical performance of CeXO2 (X: Fe, Mn) nanoparticles was measured with a scan rate of 10 mV s-1 using 1 M KCL electrolyte, which showed that the Ce0.95Fe0.05O2 electrode revealed excellent performance with a specific capacitance of 945 Fּ·g-1 for the application in energy storage devices.

Abstract
CeO2 has attracted much attention in the field of selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR). However, poor low-temperature activity and a narrow operation window restrict the industrial application of Ce-based oxide catalysts. Herein, the low-temperature NH3-SCR activity of Ce-based oxide catalysts was dramatically improved by Mn doping, and the mechanism was elucidated at the atomic level by experimental measurements and density functional theory calculations. We found that the addition of Mn significantly promoted the formation of surface oxygen vacancies. The oxygen vacancies easily captured O2 in air and formed active oxygen species (superoxide and peroxide) on the surface. The surface active oxygen species efficiently oxidized NO into NO2 and then facilitated the "fast SCR" reaction. This study provides atomic-level insights into the promotion of the NH3-SCR activity over Mn-Ce composite oxides and is beneficial for the development of low-temperature Ce-based catalysts.

Abstract
Solar-driven CO2 reduction into gas fuels is desirable for a sustainable carbon cycle. To improve the photocatalytic activity of CO2RR, the unique rich oxygen (Vo) vacant hollow CeO2@MoSe2 is designed. The introduction of Vo is conducive to the capture of electrons by CO2 and promotes the process of photocatalytic CO2RR. The heterojunction formed by introducing the narrow band gap semiconductor MoSe2 increases the absorption range of visible light and improves the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers. The hollow structure improves the CO2 adsorption capacity and improves the use of light effect. Therefore, the prepared H-Vo-CeO2@49.7 wt% MoSe2 exhibits enhanced photocatalytic activity for CO2RR. The yield of CH4 and CO is 10.2 µmol and 33.2 µmol in 4 h. Moreover, the photocatalytic mechanism is discussed through DFT and in-situ DRIFTS. This work provides new insights to the role of Vo in active CO2 photoconversion and exploits an important application of CO2 reduction.
