Abstract

Electrocatalysis plays a critical role in clean energy conversion, enabling great improvement for future sustainable technologies. Single atom catalysts (SACs) derived from metal–organic framework (MOF) are emerging extraordinary materials in electrochemical catalytic applications. Covering the merits of unique electronic structure, low‐coordination environment, quantum size effect, and metal–support interaction, SACs promise enhanced electrocatalytic activity, stability, and selectivity in the field of clean energy conversion. In this article, MOF synthesis routes to afford well‐dispersed SACs along with the respective synthesis mechanism are systematically reviewed first, and typical examples of each strategy are carefully discussed. Then the characterization techniques in understanding the isolated and spatial distribution, local electronic structure, coordination environment for SACs, and insights into stable mechanisms provided by density functional theory (DFT) calculations are summarized. In addition, several important electrocatalytic applications and electrocatalytic mechanisms of the MOF‐derived SACs, including for the oxygen reduction reaction, CO 2 reduction reaction, nitrogen reduction reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, etc., are highlighted. To facilitate the future development of high‐performing SACs, several technical challenges and corresponding research directions are proposed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
