During use of sodium hypochlorite bleach, gas-phase hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and chlorine (Cl) are released, which can react with organic compounds present in indoor air. Reactivity between HOCl/Cl and limonene, a common constituent of indoor air, has been observed. The purpose of this study was to characterize the chemical species generated from gas-phase reactions between HOCl/Cl and limonene.

This study reports the synthesis of plasmonic hot nanogap networks-in-triangular nanoframes (NITNFs), featuring narrow intraparticle nanogap networks embedded within triangular nanoframes. Starting from Au nanotriangles, Pt NITNFs are synthesized through a cascade reaction involving simultaneous Pt deposition and Au etching in a one-pot process. The Pt NITNFs are then transformed into plasmonically active Au NITNFs via Au coating.

Hydrogen-atom transfer is crucial in a myriad of chemical and biological processes, yet the accurate and efficient description of hydrogen-atom transfer reactions and kinetic isotope effects remains challenging due to significant quantum effects on hydrogenic motion, especially tunneling and zero-point energy. In this paper, we combine transition state theory (TST) with the recently developed constrained nuclear-electronic orbital (CNEO) theory to propose a new transition state theory denoted CNEO-TST. We use CNEO-TST with CNEO density functional theory (CNEO-DFT) to predict reaction rate constants for two prototypical gas-phase hydrogen-atom transfer reactions and their deuterated isotopologic reactions.

Single-atom catalysts are the focus of studies for over a decade due to their enhanced reactivity at smaller sizes. However, they have limitations as they offer only one active site, which may not be sufficient for reactions requiring the co-adsorption of multiple reactants. Additionally, atoms can migrate on a substrate and coalesce, resulting in decreased reactivity.

Microkinetic modeling of heterogeneous catalysis serves as an efficient tool bridging atom-scale first-principles calculations and macroscale industrial reactor simulations. Fundamental understanding of the microkinetic mechanism relies on a combination of experimental and theoretical studies. This Perspective presents an overview of the latest progress of experimental and microkinetic modeling approaches applied to gas-solid catalytic kinetics.
