Co3O4 spinel has been widely investigated as a promising catalyst for the oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, the roles of tetrahedrally coordinated Co2+ sites (Co2+ T-d) and octahedrally coordinated Co3+ sites (Co3+ O-h,) still remain elusive, because their oxidation states are strongly influenced by the local geometric and electronic structures of the cobalt ion. In this work, we separately studied the geometrical-site-dependent catalytic activity of Co2+ and Co3+ in VOC oxidation on the basis of a metal ion substitution strategy, by substituting Co2+ and Co3+ with inactive or low-active Zn2+(d), Al3+(d(0)), and Fe3+(d(5)), respectively. Raman spectroscopy, X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS), and in situ DRIFTS spectra were thoroughly applied to elucidate the active sites of a Co-based spinel catalyst. The results demonstrate that octahedrally coordinated Co2+ sites (Co2+ T-d) are more easily oxidized to Co3+ species in comparison to Co2+ T-d, and Co3+ are responsible for the oxidative breakage of the benzene rings to generate the carboxylate intermediate species. CoO with Co2+ o(h), and ZnCo2O4 with Co3+ o(h), species have demonstrated good catalytic activity and high TOFco values at low temperature. Benzene conversions for CoO and ZnCo2O4 are greater than 50% at 196 and 212 degrees C, respectively. However, CoAl2O4 with Co2+ T-d sites shows poor catalytic activity and a low TOFco value. In addition, ZnCo2O4 exhibits good durability at 500 degrees C and strong H2O resistance ability.
