ABSTRACT
Direct methane conversion (DMC) to oxygenates at low temperature is of great value but remains challenging due to the high energy barrier for C-H bond activation. Here, we report that in situ decoration of Pd1-ZSM-5 single atom catalyst (SAC) by CO molecules significantly promoted the DMC reaction, giving the highest turnover frequency of 207â
h-1 ever reported at room temperature and ~100 % oxygenates selectivity with H2O2 as oxidant. Combined characterizations and DFT calculations illustrate that the C-atom of CO prefers to coordinate with Pd1, which donates electrons to the Pd1-O active center (L-Pd1-O, L=CO) generated by H2O2 oxidation. The correspondingly improved electron density over Pd-O pair renders a favorable heterolytic dissociation of C-H bond with low energy barrier of 0.48â
eV. Applying CO decoration strategy to M1-ZSM-5 (M=Pd, Rh, Ru, Fe) enables improvement of oxygenates productivity by 3.2-11.3â
times, highlighting the generalizability of this method in tuning metal-oxo electronic structure of SACs for efficient DMC process.
