Abstract:Catalysis
involving gold supported on metal oxides has undergone
extensive examination. However, the nature of the catalytic site under
actual reaction conditions and the role of the support continue to
be vigorously debated. This study addresses these issues through experimental
investigations and theoretical simulations. We explore a novel catalytic
mechanism that employs dynamic single-atom catalysis for the hydrochlorination
of acetylene. This catalytic mechanism occurs in defective ZrO2-supported Au–Zr si… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
