Palladium (Pd) has been widely regarded as a high-performance catalyst for various oxidative reactions, however, the actual structure of active site remains controversial due to structural evolution under operation conditions. Herein, we prepared a series of bismuth (Bi)-doped silica-supported Pd catalysts and found a hydrogen-controlled structural reconstruction mechanism of palladium-bismuth oxide cluster to single atom alloy to efficiently catalyze low-temperature CO oxidation. The formation of PdxBiyOz clusters with unique Pd−O−Bi coordination structure could enhance the sinter-resistance ability of Pd species. This structural evolution of active site is clearly uncovered by in-situ XAFS results, in which metallic Bi−Pd shell gradually generates as the increase of reduction temperature without any metallic Bi−Bi bond. More importantly, PdBi1 single atom alloy exhibits a good CO oxidation activity with a CO2 production rate of 413 μmolCO2·gPd−1·s−1 at 100 °C and excellent catalytic stability. Density function calculation (DFT) results indicate that there are geometric and electronic effects between Bi and Pd atoms, which favor total linear-CO adsorption, activate CO and O2 molecules, and reduce the barrier for the formation of OO-CO intermediates in PdBi1 single atom alloy.

用于低温 CO 氧化的钯 - 氧化铋簇到单原子合金的氢控制结构重构
钯(Pd)被广泛认为是各种氧化反应的高性能催化剂,然而,由于操作条件下的结构演变,活性位点的实际结构仍然存在争议。在此,我们制备了一系列铋 (Bi) 掺杂二氧化硅负载的 Pd 催化剂,并发现了钯 - 氧化铋簇到单原子合金的氢控制结构重构机制,可有效催化低温 CO 氧化。Pd x Bi y O z的形成具有独特Pd-O-Bi配位结构的团簇可以增强Pd物种的抗烧结能力。原位 XAFS 结果清楚地揭示了活性位点的这种结构演变,其中金属 Bi-Pd 壳随着还原温度的升高逐渐生成,没有任何金属 Bi-Bi 键。更重要的是,PdBi 1单原子合金表现出良好的CO氧化活性,在100 °C时CO 2生成率为413 μmol CO2 ·g Pd -1 ·s -1和优异的催化稳定性。密度函数计算(DFT)结果表明Bi和Pd原子之间存在几何和电子效应,有利于总线性CO吸附,激活CO和O 2分子, 并降低 PdBi 1单原子合金中 OO-CO 中间体形成的势垒。
