Abstract
The competition and diversity of coinstantaneous elementary reactions in syngas conversion make the production of targeted products with high selectivity much more challenging. This work demonstrates the control of product distribution in syngas conversion by changing the adsorption strength of non-dissociated CO on engineered Cu sites. The strength of non-dissociated CO adsorption has been tailored by atomic-Cu1 or ensemble-Cun on Co1Ga1 intermetallic compounds. In syngas conversion, the introduction of either Cu sites could promote the selectivity of alcohols, while atomic-Cu1 sites enhance the production of methanol and ensemble-Cun sites favor the production of C2+ alcohol. A strong adsorption of non-dissociated CO occurs on electron-deficient atomic-Cu1 sites, leading to an increase of alcohols with > 90 % of methanol in alcohols due to direct hydrogenation. A weaker adsorption of non-dissociated CO occurs on ensemble-Cun sites, which allows the carbonyl insertion to alkyl species, affording alcohols with ∼ 92 % of C2+ alcohol.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Catalysis publishes scholarly articles on both heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis, covering a wide range of chemical transformations. These include various types of catalysis, such as those mediated by photons, plasmons, and electrons. The focus of the studies is to understand the relationship between catalytic function and the underlying chemical properties of surfaces and metal complexes.
The articles in the journal offer innovative concepts and explore the synthesis and kinetics of inorganic solids and homogeneous complexes. Furthermore, they discuss spectroscopic techniques for characterizing catalysts, investigate the interaction of probes and reacting species with catalysts, and employ theoretical methods.
The research presented in the journal should have direct relevance to the field of catalytic processes, addressing either fundamental aspects or applications of catalysis.
