“…Nevertheless, to date, rare experimental evidence has been collected to clearly describe the evolution of these Hbonds because of their transient timescales during this fundamental chemical process. 17 In response to this key issue, the primary challenge is the accurate regulation and long-term retention of various different H-bonding configurations during the proton transfer process, as illustrated in Scheme 1. Fortunately, a series of typical acidic materials (e.g., zeolites or heteropolyacids) 9,18 could be undoubtedly regarded as proton donors, whereas basic adsorbate molecules (e.g., acetone 19,20 or trimethylphosphine oxide (TMPO) 21−23 ) can be certainly considered to be proton acceptors.…”
