Origin and activity of gold nanoparticles as aerobic oxidation catalysts in aqueous solution

Whether gold is catalytically active on its own has been hotly debated since the discovery of gold-based catalysis in the 1980s. One of the central controversies is on the O(2) activation mechanism. This work, by investigating aerobic phenylethanol oxidation on gold nanoparticles in aqueous solution, demonstrates that gold nanoparticles are capable to activate O(2) at the solid-liquid interface. Extensive density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with the periodic continuum solvation model have been utilized to provide a complete reaction network of aerobic alcohol oxidation. We show that the adsorption of O(2) is very sensitive to the environment: the presence of water can double the O(2) adsorption energy to ~0.4 eV at commonly available edge sites of nanoparticles (~4 nm) because of its strongly polarized nature in adsorption. In alcohol oxidation, the hydroxyl bond of alcohol can break only with the help of an external base at ambient conditions, while the consequent α-C-H bond breaking occurs on pure Au, both on edges and terraces, with a reaction barrier of 0.7 eV, which is the rate-determining step. The surface H from the α-C-H bond cleavage can be easily removed by O(2) and OOH via a H(2)O(2) pathway without involving atomic O. We find that Au particles become negatively charged at the steady state because of a facile proton-shift equilibrium on surface, OOH + OH ? O(2) + H(2)O. The theoretical results are utilized to rationalize experimental findings and provide a firm basis for utilizing nanoparticle gold as aerobic oxidation catalysts in aqueous surroundings.     

单晶Au表面和Au/TiO2（110）模型催化剂表面CO氧化反应机理和活性位

在分子尺度上介绍了Au/TiO2(110)模型催化剂表面和单晶Au表面CO氧化反应机理和活性位、以及H2O的作用.在低温(<320 K), H2O起着促进CO氧化的作用, CO氧化的活性位位于金纳米颗粒与TiO2载体界面(Auδ+–Oδ––Ti)的周边. O2和H2O在金纳米颗粒与TiO2载体界面边缘处反应形成OOH,而形成的OOH使O–O键活化,随后OOH与CO反应生成CO2.300 K时CO2的形成速率受限于O2压力与该反应机理相印证.相反,在高温(>320 K)下,因暴露于CO中而导致催化剂表面重组,在表面形成低配位金原子.低配位的金原子吸附O2,随后O2解离,并在金属金表面氧化CO.     

Comparison of the catalytic activity of Au3, Au4+, Au5, and Au5- in the gas-phase reaction of H2 and O2 to form hydrogen peroxide: a density functional theory investigation

We report a detailed density functional theory (B3LYP) analysis of the gas-phase H2O2 formation from H2 and O2 on Au3, Au4+, Au5, and Au5-. We find that H2, which interacts only weakly with the Au clusters, is dissociatively added across the Au-O bond, upon interaction with AunO2. One H atom is captured by the adsorbed O2 to form the hydroperoxy intermediate (OOH), while the other H atom is captured by the Au atom. Once formed, the hydroperoxy intermediate acts as a precursor for the closed-loop catalytic cycle. An important common feature of all the pathways is that the rate-determining step of the catalytic cycle is the second H2 addition to form H2O2. The H2O2 desorption is followed by O2 addition to AunH2 to form the hydroperoxy intermediate, thus leading to the closure of the cycle. On the basis of the Gibbs free energy of activation, out of these four clusters, Au4+ is most active for the formation of the H2O2. The 0 K electronic energy of activation and the DeltaGact at the standard conditions are 12.6 and 16.6 kcal/mol respectively. The natural bond orbital charge analysis suggests that the Au clusters remain positively charged (oxidic) in almost all the stages of the cycle. This is interesting in the context of the recent experimental evidence for the activity of cationic Au in CO oxidation and water-gas shift catalysts. We have also found preliminary evidence for a correlation between the activation barrier for the first H2 addition and the O2 binding energy on the Au cluster. It suggests that the minimum activation barrier for the first H2 addition is expected for the Au clusters with 7.0-9.0 kcal/mol O2 binding energy, i.e., in the midrange of the expected interaction energy. This represents a balance between more favorable H2 dissociation when the Aun-O2 interaction is weaker and high O2 coverage when the interaction is stronger. On the basis of this work, we predict that the hydroperoxy intermediate formation can be both thermodynamically and kinetically viable only in a narrow range of the O2 binding energy (10.0-12.0 kcal/mol)-a useful estimate for computationally screening Au-cluster-based catalysts. We also show that a competitive channel for the OOH desorption exists. Thus, in propylene epoxidation both OOH radicals and H2O2 can attack the active Ti in/on the Au/TS-1 and generate the Ti-OOH sites, which can convert propylene to propylene oxide.     

金催化CO氧化湿度增强效应的理论研究

实验发现纳米金催化的CO氧化有良好的湿度增强效应,但有关机制仍不清楚.我们应用密度泛函理论研究了湿度增强效应的微观机制,以Au4团簇为例,研究了金催化CO氧化的微观机理,考察了H2O在反应中的角色和作用.计算结果表明,H2O与Au4团簇一样,在反应中扮演催化剂的角色,参与反应的进行、改变反应历程、降低反应能垒.催化循环包含4个基元步骤：O2＋H2O→OOH＋OH,CO＋OOH→CO2＋OH,CO＋OH→COOH,和COOH＋OH→CO2＋H2O,其中自由基OOH和OH的形成是催化循环的速控步骤,其能垒为100.31kJ/mol,明显低于非水参与反应的能垒（161.41kJ/mol）.目前的结果合理地解释了实验观测的CO催化氧化的湿度增强效应,给出了其微观反应机制.     

The beneficial effect of hydrogen on CO oxidation over Au catalysts. A computational study

Density functional theory calculations have been carried out to explore the effect of hydrogen on the oxidation of CO in relation to the preferential oxidation of CO in the presence of excess hydrogen (PROX). A range of gold surfaces have been selected including the (100), stepped (310) surfaces and diatomic rows on the (100) surface. These diatomic rows on Au(100) are very efficient in H-H bond scission. O(2) hydrogenation strongly enhances the surface-oxygen interaction and assists in scission of the O-O bond. The activation energy required to make the reaction intermediate hydroperoxy (OOH) from O(2) and H is small. However, we postulate its presence on our Au models as the result of diffusion from oxide supports to the gold surfaces. The OOH on Au in turn opens many low energy cost channels to produce H(2)O and CO(2). CO is selectively oxidized in a H(2) atmosphere due to the more favorable reaction barriers while the formation of adsorbed hydroperoxy enhances the reaction rate.     

Water-enhanced low-temperature CO oxidation and isotope effects on atomic oxygen-covered Au(111)

Water-oxygen interactions and CO oxidation by water on the oxygen-precovered Au(111) surface were studied by using molecular beam scattering techniques, temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Water thermally desorbs from the clean Au(111) surface with a peak temperature of approximately 155 K; however, on a surface with preadsorbed atomic oxygen, a second water desorption peak appears at approximately 175 K. DFT calculations suggest that hydroxyl formation and recombination are responsible for this higher temperature desorption feature. TPD spectra support this interpretation by showing oxygen scrambling between water and adsorbed oxygen adatoms upon heating the surface. In further support of these experimental findings, DFT calculations indicate rapid diffusion of surface hydroxyl groups at temperatures as low as 75 K. Regarding the oxidation of carbon monoxide, if a C (16)O beam impinges on a Au(111) surface covered with both atomic oxygen ( (16)O) and isotopically labeled water (H 2 (18)O), both C (16)O (16)O and C (16)O (18)O are produced, even at surface temperatures as low as 77 K. Similar experiments performed by impinging a C (16)O beam on a Au(111) surface covered with isotopic oxygen ( (18)O) and deuterated water (D 2 (16)O) also produce both C (16)O (16)O and C (16)O (18)O but less than that produced by using (16)O and H 2 (18)O. These results unambiguously show the direct involvement and promoting role of water in CO oxidation on oxygen-covered Au(111) at low temperatures. On the basis of our experimental results and DFT calculations, we propose that water dissociates to form hydroxyls (OH and OD), and these hydroxyls react with CO to produce CO 2. Differences in water-oxygen interactions and oxygen scrambling were observed between (18)O/H 2 (16)O and (18)O/D 2 (16)O, the latter producing less scrambling. Similar differences were also observed in water reactivity toward CO oxidation, in which less CO 2 was produced with (16)O/D 2 (16)O than with (16)O/H 2 (16)O. These differences are likely due to primary kinetic isotope effects due to the differences in O-H and O-D bond energies.     

Oxygen adsorption on hydrated gold cluster anions: experiment and theory

The discovery that supported gold clusters act as highly efficient catalysts for low-temperature oxidation reactions has led to a great deal of work aimed at understanding the origins of the catalytic activity. Several studies have shown that the presence of trace moisture is required for the catalysts to function. Using near-atmospheric pressure flow reactor techniques, we have studied humidity and temperature effects on the reactivity of gas-phase gold cluster anions with O2. Near room temperature, the humid source produces abundant gold-hydroxy cluster anions, Au(N)OH(-), and these have a reversed O2 adsorption activity: Nonreactive bare gold clusters become active when in the form Au(N)OH(-), while active bare clusters are inactive when -OH is bound. The binding energies for the stable structures obtained from density functional calculations confirm fully these findings. Moreover, the theory provides evidence that electron-transfer induced by the binding of a OH group enhances the reactivity toward molecular oxygen for odd anionic gold clusters and suppresses the reactivity for the even ones. The temperature dependence of O2 addition to Au(3)OH(-) and Au(4)(-) indicates deviations from equilibrium control at temperatures below room temperature. The effects of humidity on gold cluster adsorption activity support the conclusion drawn for the mechanism of O2 adsorption on "dry" gold cluster anions and provides insight into the possible role of water in the enhanced activity of supported gold cluster catalysts.     

Chemistry of O‐ and H‐Containing Species on the (001) Surface of Anatase TiO2: A DFT Study

The chemistry of oxygen, hydrogen, water, and other species containing both oxygen and hydrogen atoms on the anatase TiO₂ (001) surface is investigated by DFT. The adsorption energy of atoms and radicals depends appreciably on the position and mode of adsorption, and on the coverage. Molecular hydrogen and oxygen interact weakly with the clean surface. However, H₂O dissociates spontaneously to give two nonidentical hydroxyl groups, and this provides a model for hydroxylation of TiO₂ surfaces by water. The mobility of the hydroxyl groups created by water splitting is initially impeded by a diffusion barrier close to 1 eV. The O₂ adsorption energy increases significantly in the presence of H atoms. Hydroperoxy (OOH) formation is feasible if at least two H atoms are present in the direct vicinity of O₂. In the adsorbed OOH, the O? O bond is considerably lengthened and thus weakened.     

纳米金催化一氧化碳氧化反应的理论研究

近年来,纳米金催化剂独特的催化性质,特别是其优异的低温催化氧化活性,引起了人们极大的研究热情.除低温选择氧化外,在精细化学品合成、大气污染物消除、氢能的转换和利用等领域也开发出了一系列有广泛应用前景的金催化反应.此外,体相金的化学惰性和纳米金的超高活性之间差异的“鸿沟”也引起了理论工作者浓厚兴趣,试图从原理上理解体相金和纳米金活性差异的根源. CO催化氧化是最具有代表性的研究金催化活性的化学反应,本文主要综述了近十多年来金催化 CO氧化反应理论计算方面的研究工作.一般认为, CO在纳米金表面的吸附是 CO氧化反应的初始步骤.密度泛函理论研究表明, CO在金表面的吸附强度主要与被吸附金原子的配位数有关：金配位数越低, CO的吸附能越强,部分研究结果表明两者之间存在近似的线性关系.我们研究发现, CO吸附强度也与被吸附金周围配位金原子的相对位置有关,其中位于正下方的配位金原子加强 CO吸附,而位于侧位的配位金原子则弱化 CO吸附,这显然削弱了 CO吸附与金配位数线性关系的可靠性.理论研究表明,在纯金表
　　面上 O2吸附强度一般很弱,只有在一些特殊结构的金团簇上才有较强的吸附,但在 Au/TiO2界面及 CeO2表面上 O2吸附较强.金表面原子氧的吸附和金的表面结构有关.我们发现,原子氧倾向于在金的表面形成一种线性的 O–Au–O结构以增加其稳定性.当金表面的氧覆盖度增大时,会形成一种金氧化物薄膜结构,其结构依赖于氧的化学势和金的表面结构.纳米金催化 CO氧化反应机理可能因体系、载体等的差异而不同.大部分理论计算结果表明,在纯金表面上 O2很难直接解离形成原子氧,因此反应机理可能是吸附的 CO先与 O2反应形成了一种 CO–O2中间体,然后解离形成 CO2.在 Au/TiO2和 Au/CeO2催化剂上 CO催化氧化机理争议很大,均有计算结果支持 LH机理和 M–vK机理.另外,根据实验上观察到了负载型纳米金能直接活化分子氧的结果,理论上也提出了分子氧先解离为原子氧再与 CO反应的氧解离机理.针对如何解离分子氧问题,人们分别提出了低配位金模型、正方形金结构模型、Ti5c模型及 Au/Ti5c模型等.我们也提出了一种独特的双直线 O–Au–O模型来理解 Au/TiO2或 Au/CeO2界面解离活化分子氧.理论计算结果表明,低配位的金,金和载体之间的电荷转移,以及金所表现出的强相对论效应对于纳米金的活性影响很大.需要特别指出的是,金的强相对论效应有助于理解金表面的 CO吸附与金配位的关系、金表面原子氧的吸附特性、金氧化物薄膜的结构和分子氧的活化等过程.我们认为,金的强相对论作用导致了体相金的化学惰性以及纳米金的活性,因此相对论效应的深入研究将有助于理解金催化 CO氧化反应机理,从而有助于深层次理解纳米金催化活性来源.     

CO oxidation on Aun/TiO2 catalysts produced by size-selected cluster deposition

Planar model catalysts were prepared by deposition of size-selected gold clusters containing up to seven atoms on rutile TiO2 (110). Molecular oxygen is observed to bind inefficiently to the surface, probably at oxygen vacancies, and some oxygen also appears to bind to the gold clusters. Stable CO binding is observed atop gold for catalysts prepared by Au and Au2 deposition, but not for larger Aun. CO oxidation activity is strongly dependent on cluster size, with Au7-prepared samples >50 times more reactive than samples prepared by Au or Au2 deposition

镍掺杂对氧化铝纳米片负载金催化剂在CO氧化反应中的促进作用（英文）

负载型金催化剂在CO氧化反应中具有良好的低温活性,受到了研究者的广泛关注,其催化性能与载体的性质密切相关.氧化铝具有廉价易得、比表面积大和热稳定性好等优点.然而,作为一种非还原性载体,氧化铝提供活性氧物种的能力差,与还原性载体相比催化剂的CO氧化活性较低.理论计算和实验结果表明,在金催化剂中引入过渡金属镍能够有效促进氧分子在催化剂表面的吸附和活化,从而提升金催化剂活性.此外,过渡金属的存在能够提高金的分散度,增加活性位数目,防止在高温预处理过程中金颗粒的烧结,从而提高催化剂的活性和稳定性.基于上述考虑,本文在氧化铝纳米片合成过程中原位引入硝酸镍,以实现对氧化铝载体的改性,然后负载金并应用于CO氧化反应.结果表明,当载体中的Ni/Al摩尔比为0.05,金负载量为1wt%时,采用还原性气氛对催化剂进行预处理可以得到具有CO氧化性能优良的金催化剂, 20 oC下CO转化率即可达100%.预处理气氛能够显著影响催化活性,采用还原性气氛预处理后催化剂活性明显优于氧化性气氛预处理.采用X射线衍射(XRD)、高分辨透射电镜(HRTEM)、氢气程序升温还原(H2-TPR)、氧气程序升温脱附(O2-TPD)、CO吸附原位红外光谱(CO-DRIFT)和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)等表征手段进一步研究了镍掺杂对Au/Al2O3催化剂上CO氧化反应的促进作用机制.XRD测试未观察到明显的金或镍衍射峰,表明金或镍物种均为高分散.HRTEM结果进一步证实,引入镍物种后金颗粒的粒径由3.6 nm减小为2.4 nm,表明镍掺杂有助于提高金的分散度.而XPS结果显示,镍掺杂催化剂中金与镍存在电子转移,而镍仍以Ni O为主.H2-TPR结果表明,镍掺杂的催化剂前驱体中的金物种更容易被还原.O2-TPD结果证实,镍掺杂催化剂能够引入更多的氧空位,促进氧分子的吸附和活化,从而促进CO氧化反应的进行.CO-DRIFT结果表明,相比于氧化性气氛,采用还原性气氛预处理后金物种的电子云密度增加, CO吸附增强.而对于镍掺杂的催化剂,金物种吸附CO分子的能力进一步提高,有利于CO氧化反应的进行.综上,镍掺杂能够有效提高催化剂中金的分散度,增强催化剂对CO的吸附,促进氧气分子的吸附和活化,从而提高了催化剂的CO氧化活性.     

Observation and Identification of an Atomic Oxygen Structure on Catalytic Gold Nanoparticles

Interactions between oxygen and gold surfaces are fundamentally important in diverse areas of science and technology. In this work, an oxygen dimer structure was observed and identified on gold nanoparticles in catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water. This structure, which is different from isolated atomic or molecular oxygen surface structures, was observed with in situ surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopic measurements and identified with density functional theory calculations. The experimental measurements were performed using monodisperse 5, 50 and 400 nm gold particles supported on silica with liquid‐phase hydrogen and deuterium peroxides at multiple pH values. The calculations show that on surfaces with coordinatively unsaturated gold atoms, two oxygen atoms preferentially share a gold atom with a bond distance of 0.194–0.196 nm and additionally bind to two other surface gold atoms with a larger bond distance of 0.203–0.213 nm, forming an Au‐O‐Au‐O‐Au structure. The formation of this structure depends on reaction rates and conditions.     

On the theoretical understanding of the unexpected O2 activation by nanoporous gold

Several pure and Ag-doped gold surfaces were used as models of nanoporous gold catalysts where O(2) was suggested to be activated. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that residual Ag on Au is able to promote adsorption and to dissociate thermodynamically favorable O(2) with high rate constants.     

Direct gas-phase epoxidation of propylene to propylene oxide using air as oxidant on supported gold catalyst

Gold catalysts supported on SiO2, TiO2, TiO2-SiO2, and ZrO2-SiO2 supports were prepared by impregnating each support with a basic solution of tetrachloroauric acid. X-ray diffraction （XRD）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） techniques were used to characterize their structure and surface composition. The results indicated that the size of gold particles could be controlled to below 10 nm by this method of preparation. Washing gold catalysts with water could markedly enhance the dispersion of metallic gold particles on the surface, but it could not completely remove the chloride ions left on the surface. The catalytic performance of direct vapor-phase epoxidation of propylene using air as an oxidant over these catalysts was evaluated at atmospheric pressure. The selectivity to propylene oxide （PO） was found to vary with reaction time on the stream. At the reaction conditions of atmosphere pressure, temperature 325 ℃, feed gas ratio V（C3H6）/V（O2）= 1/2, and GHSV =6000h^-1, 17.9% PO selectivity with 0.9% propylene conversion were obtained at initial 10 min for Au/SiO2 catalyst. After reacting 60 min only 8.9% PO selectivity were detected, but the propylene conversion rises to 1.4% and the main product is transferred to acrolein （72% selectivity）. Washing Au/TiO2-SiO2 and Aa/ZrO2-SiO2 samples with magnesium citrate solution could markedly enhance the activity and PO selectivity because smaller gold particles were obtained.     

焙烧温度对Au/Fe2O3选择性氧化富氢气体中CO催化性能的影响

甲醇重整在线制氢作为质子交换膜燃料电池的燃料成为当前研究的热点。受重整反应动力学及热力学的限制，使得甲醇重整气(富氢气体)中除含有大量的氢气外还含有少量的CO，CO极易吸附在燃料电池阳极催化剂表面，使电池性能下降，因而必须去除重整气中的CO，选择性氧化脱除富氢气

Hydrogen chemisorption on Al2O3-supported gold catalysts

Hydrogen is dissociatively adsorbed on the gold particles in Au/Al(2)O(3) catalysts, as demonstrated by a combination of in-situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy, chemisorption, and H/D exchange experiments. This chemisorption of hydrogen induces changes in the Au L(3) and L(2) X-ray absorption near-edge structures. The gold atoms on corner and edge positions dissociate the hydrogen, which does not spill over to the face sites. Therefore, the average number of adsorbed hydrogen atoms per surface gold atom increases with decreasing particle size. With temperature, the hydrogen uptake by supported gold increases or remains constant, whereas it decreases for platinum. Furthermore, in H/D exchange experiments, the activity of Au/Al(2)O(3) increases strongly with temperature. Thus, the dissociation and adsorption of hydrogen on gold is activated.     

A theoretical study of CO adsorption on gold by Hückel theory and density functional theory calculations

It is crucial to understand the nature of CO adsorption on gold so as to elucidate the mechanism of low-temperature CO oxidation on nanogold catalysts. We performed theoretical analysis of CO adsorption on gold by using Hückel theory and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Hückel theory indicates that CO adsorption on gold is dominated by the electron distribution at the Au atom, which is greatly affected by neighboring Au atoms, coadsorbed or doping species. The increase of σ-bonding electrons should weaken the CO adsorption, while the increase of π-electrons should strengthen the adsorption. DFT calculations proved this prediction quantitatively for various systems, including CO adsorption on a Au(100)-hex surface with locally varying subsurface configurations and CO coadsorption with acceptor or donor species.     

铁(Ⅲ)的氮杂环配合物的合成、结构及对环己烷氧化的催化性能

制备了铁氮杂环配合物[Fe(H2L)2]·(CH3COO)2·(OH)·H2O(H2L=2,6-二(5-甲基-1H-吡唑-3-基)吡啶),通过元素分析、X射线粉末衍射和X射线单晶结构分析等技术手段表征了它的结构。 将其用于液相环己烷的催化氧化,系统研究了H2O2用量、HNO3用量、水量、反应时间和温度等对中间活性物种环己基过氧化氢(C6H11OOH) 的生成和分解的影响,探讨了反应机理。 结果表明,H2O2是氧化环己烷为C6H11OOH的主要氧化剂;硝酸对此过程没有氧化作用,但能大幅度提高C6H11OOH分解成环己醇(酮)的分解速率。 H2O会抑制中间物种C6H11OOH的生成和分解,而降低催化剂的比活性。 在不同反应阶段,C6H11OOH和环己醇(酮)的生成速率不同。 升温能促进C6H11OOH的分解速率,而有利于环己醇(酮)的生成。
