Identification of the Highly Active Co–N4 Coordination Motif for Selective Oxygen Reduction to Hydrogen Peroxide
Open accessAbstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Electrosynthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) through oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is an environment-friendly and sustainable route for obtaining a fundamental product in the chemical industry. Co–N 4 single-atom catalysts (SAC) have sparkled attention for being highly active in both 2e – ORR, leading to H 2 O 2 and 4e – ORR, in which H 2 O is the main product. However, there is still a lack of fundamental insights into the structure–function relationship between CoN 4 and the ORR mechanism over this family of catalysts. Here, by combining theoretical simulation and experiments, we unveil that pyrrole-type CoN 4 (Co–N SAC Dp ) is mainly responsible for the 2e – ORR, while pyridine-type CoN 4 catalyzes the 4e – ORR. Indeed, Co–N SAC Dp exhibits a remarkable H 2 O 2 selectivity of 94% and a superb H 2 O 2 yield of 2032 mg for 90 h in a flow cell, outperforming most reported catalysts in acid media. Theoretical analysis and experimental investigations confirm that Co–N SAC Dp ─with weakening O 2 /HOO* interaction─boosts the H 2 O 2 production.

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.
