TL;DR: It is demonstrated that infrared spectroscopy can be a fast and convenient characterization method with which to directly distinguish and quantify Pt single atoms from nanoparticles, and directly observe that only Pt nanoparticles show activity for carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation and water-gas shift at low temperatures, whereas Ptsingle atoms behave as spectators.

TL;DR: A method for installing Ni ions uniformly and precisely on the node of a Zr-based metal-organic framework (MOF) in high density and large quantity (denoted as Ni-AIM) using atomic layer deposition (ALD) in a MOF (AIM).

TL;DR: Experimental and computational results suggested that active sites on the Pt/Mo(2)C catalysts were located on the perimeter of the Pt particles and that strong interactions between Pt and the Mo( 2)C surface gave rise to raft-like particles.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the highly selective (more than 95%) dehydrogenation of propane to propylene as well as the reverse hydrogenation reaction by silica-supported single-site Zn(II) catalyst.

TL;DR: A potential reaction mechanism for the propane ODH process catalyzed by Co-SIM+NU-1000 is proposed, yielding a low activation energy barrier which is in accord with the observed catalytic activity at low temperature.
