Abstract:In heterogeneous catalysis, heterolytic H2 activation for (selective) hydrogenation and hydroprocessing reactions involves the dissociation of adsorbed H2 molecules into proton (Hδ+) and hydride (Hδ−) on the catalyst surface. This approach offers several advantages, including high selectivity for polar bonds(s), a low energy barrier for H2 dissociation, a high capacity for reaction‐favorable H2 adsorption, and reduced catalyst poisoning. This requires the construction of frustrated Lewis pairs on the catalyst … Show more
