Coordination Number Dependent Catalytic Activity of Single-Atom Cobalt Catalysts for Fenton-Like Reaction

Xiaoying Liang et al.

Summary: In this study, a series of atomically dispersed cobalt catalysts with different coordination numbers were synthesized and their performance in peroxymonosulfate (PMS) conversion was explored. The results showed that the catalytic specific activity of the catalysts depended on the coordination number of single Co atom, with the lowest-coordinated Co-N-2 catalyst exhibiting the highest specific activity. It was found that reducing the coordination number increased the electron density of the single Co atom, which governed the Fenton-like performance of the catalysts. Additionally, the entire Co-pyridinic N-C motif was identified as the active center for PMS conversion, with the single Co atom, pyridinic N-bonded C atoms, and nitrogen vacancy neighboring the unsaturated Co-pyridinic N-2 moiety contributing to PMS reduction and oxidation.
