We have recently clarified the following point: a dual-type site, which is composed of a pair of monovalent copper ions (Cu(+)) formed in a copper-ion-exchanged MFI-type zeolite (CuMFI), functions as the active center for strong ethane (C2H6) adsorption even at room temperature rather than a single-type site composed of a Cu(+) ion. However, the character of the dual-Cu(+) site in a CuMFI is not yet fully understood. In this study, we have elucidated the nature of the active sites for C2H6 based on infrared (IR) and calorimetric data. On the basis of the results obtained, we came to the conclusion that the dual-Cu(+) site composed of Cu(+) ions giving the adsorption energy of 100 kJ mol(-1) and the absorption band at 2151 cm(-1) for carbon monoxide (used as a probe molecule) at room temperature functions as an adsorption site for C2H6. We also evaluated, for the first time, the interaction between the dual-Cu(+) site and C2H6 energetically, by the direct measurement of heat of adsorption. The value of 67 kJ mol(-1) that we recorded was higher than that for the single-Cu(+) site in this sample and also for other samples, such as NaMFI and HMFI.

Isolated metal sites catalysts (IMSCs) play crucial role in electrochemical CO reduction, with potential industrial applications. However, tunable synthesis strategies for IMSCs are limited. Herein, we present an atomic printing strategy that draws inspiration from the ancient Chinese "movable-type printing technology".

Regulating the distribution of reactive oxygen species generated from H O activation is the prerequisite to ensuring the efficient and safe use of H O in the chemistry and life science fields. Herein, we demonstrate that constructing a dual Cu-Fe site through the self-assembly of single-atomic-layered Cu nanoclusters onto a FeS surface achieves selective H O activation with high efficiency. Unlike its unitary Cu or Fe counterpart, the dual Cu-Fe sites residing at the perimeter zone of the Cu /FeS interface facilitate H O adsorption and barrierless decomposition into ⋅OH via forming a bridging Cu-O-O-Fe complex.
