Paired Framework Charges Enable Cationic Ptδ+ Sites for Ultralow-Loading Propane Dehydrogenation.

Propane dehydrogenation (PDH) requires platinum (Pt) sites that couple high intrinsic activity with propylene selectivity, yet most Pt-based strategies that enhance selectivity rely on electronically modified metallic Pt and can compromise intrinsic rates. This paper describes a discovery that atomically dispersed, cat...

Ultrathin CoO nanosheets enable direct CO2 hydrogenation to acetic acid

Direct hydrogenation of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) to acetic acid, a key commodity chemical, offers a sustainable route to valorize greenhouse gases but is plagued by CO2 inertness, thermodynamic barriers, and poor selectivity for C-C coupling over competing overhydrogenation. This paper describes the design and synthesis o...

Catalytic CO2 hydrogenation toward net-zero fuels and chemicals.

Heterogeneous catalytic CO2 hydrogenation has emerged as a versatile route for converting captured CO2 and renewable H2 into fuels and chemicals, with relevance to carbon circularity, energy storage, and the progressive defossilisation of chemical manufacturing. This review describes CO2 hydrogenation as a complex netw...
