Summary: This study investigated the catalysis of Pt SAC at the single-molecule single-atom level and found both static and dynamic activity heterogeneity. It was revealed that the intrinsic catalytic activity of Pt SAC is higher than that of Pt nanoparticles, and there is no catalysis-induced surface restructuring in Pt SAC. Density functional theory calculations further suggested that the unique catalytic properties of Pt SAC or the differences between Pt SAC and nanoparticles could be attributed to the strong adsorptions, large surface energy, and strong binding of Pt-1 species.

Summary: Potential-dependent selectivity changes are widely observed in electrocatalysis, but a detailed understanding of these changes at an atomic level is still lacking. In this study, we use a model atomically dispersed nickel catalyst to obtain a comprehensive view of potential-induced structure changes during the CO2 reduction reaction. Our findings show that the catalyst exhibits volcano-like selectivity changes that are dependent on the distance between the nickel atom and the carbon basal plane. Theoretical calculations suggest that local dynamic behaviors play a crucial role in regulating the distribution of the d band center of nickel.

Summary: Placental extracellular vesicles (EVs) play important roles in pregnancy, but they are also implicated in the progression of preeclampsia. A fabrication process called laser-induced nano-structuring of SERS-active thin films (LINST) was developed to produce substrates that allow the biochemical fingerprinting of EVs. The findings encourage the exploration of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of EVs as a promising method for preeclampsia liquid biopsies.

Summary: Machine learning has significantly impacted the value of spectroscopic characterization tools, especially in biomedical applications. However, the extensive data preprocessing required often introduces bias. To address this, researchers developed two deep learning methods capable of fully preprocessing spectroscopy data without human input. The findings suggest that these methods outperform conventional approaches in terms of speed, defect tolerance, and classification accuracy.

Summary: Pt/C and SO42-/ZrO2 were used as catalysts for the synthesis of p-aminophenol through the catalytic transfer hydrogenation of nitrobenzene in water with formic acid as the hydrogen source. The optimal Pt loading for PAP selectivity was found to be 1 wt%. The presence of different valence states of Pt affected both the nitrobenzene hydrogenation and formic acid decomposition. Among different solid acid catalysts tested, SO42-/ZrO2 exhibited the highest catalytic activity for p-aminophenol formation. Under the optimized reaction conditions, the conversion of nitrobenzene reached 80.0%, with a selectivity of 47.6% for p-aminophenol.

Summary: The mechanism of the reaction between CO2 and styrene oxide for cyclic carbonate was revealed using density functional theory calculations. The noncatalytic reaction occurred via a concerted mechanism, while in the presence of guanidine and tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) co-catalysts, the epoxide ring-opening by nucleophilic attack of an iodide anion was predicted to be the rate-determining step. Guanidine acted as the H-bond donor to activate styrene oxide, facilitating the reaction with a lower activation barrier.

Summary: Copper nanorods (Cu-NRs) exhibit significant plasmonic behavior and can act as efficient catalysts in redox processes and coupling. A benign decarboxylative approach, utilizing localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) assisted catalysis with Cu-NRs, has been developed for the production of alkane analogues from alkyl carboxylic acids under visible light. The catalyst shows a broad substrate scope and high functional group tolerance, without the need for an external oxidant or proton source. A plausible mechanism for this recyclable nano-catalyst has also been proposed based on control experiments.
