The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity of pristine NiOOH is enhanced by doping with Fe. However, the precise role of Fe is still being debated. Here, we use the first-principles DFT+U approach to study three different types of active sites: one on pristine and the other two on Fe-doped NiOOH monolayers to account for the direct and indirect roles of Fe. To compare the activity of the active sites, we consider two mechanisms of OER based on the source of O-O bond formation. Our results show that the mechanism involving the coupling of lattice oxygen is generally more favorable than water nucleophilic attack on lattice oxygen. On doping with Fe, the overpotential of NiOOH is reduced by 0.33 V in excellent agreement with experimental findings. Introducing Fe at active sites results in different potential determining steps (PDS) in the two mechanisms, whereas Ni sites in pristine and Fe-doped NiOOH have the same PDS regardless of the mechanism. The Fe sites not only have the lowest overpotential but also decrease the overpotential for Ni sites.

<p>Hypervalent iodine(V) reagents, such as Dess-Martin periodinane (DMP) and 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX), are broadly useful oxidants in chemical synthesis. Development of strategies to access these reagents from O2 would immediately enable use of O2 as a terminal oxidant in a broad array of substrate oxidation reactions. Recently we disclosed the aerobic synthesis of I(III) reagents by intercepting reactive oxidants generated during aldehyde autoxidation. Here, we couple aerobic oxidation of iodobenzenes with disproportionation of the initially generated I(III) compounds to generate I(V) reagents. The aerobically generated I(V) reagents exhibit substrate oxidation chemistry analogous to that of DMP. Further, the developed aerobic generation of I(V) has enabled the first application of I(V) intermediates in aerobic oxidation catalysis.</p>

Despite tremendous importance in catalysis, the design and improvement of the oxide- metal interface has been hampered by the limited understanding on the nature of interfacial sites, as well as the oxide-metal interaction (OMI). Through the construction of well-defined Cu<sub>2</sub>O-Pt, Cu<sub>2</sub>O-Ag, Cu<sub>2</sub>O-Au interfaces, we found that Cu<sub>2</sub>O Nanostructures (NSs) on Pt exhibit much lower thermal stability than on Ag and Au, although they show the same surface and edge structures, as identified by element-specific scanning tunneling microscopy (ES-STM) images. The activities of the Cu<sub>2</sub>O-Pt and Cu<sub>2</sub>O-Au interfaces for CO oxidation were further compared at the atomic scale and showed in general that the interface with Cu<sub>2</sub>O NSs could annihilate the CO-poisoning problem suffered by Pt group metals and enhance the interaction with O<sub>2</sub>, which is a limiting step for CO oxidation catalysis on group IB metals. While both interfaces could react with CO at room temperature, the OMI was found to determine the reactivity of supported Cu<sub>2</sub>O NSs by 1) tuning the activity of interfacial oxygen atoms and 2) stabilizing oxygen vacancies or vice versa, the dissociated oxygen atoms at the interface. Our study provides new insight for OMI and for the development of Cu-based catalysts for low temperature oxidation reactions.

In recent years, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have received increasing attention as selective oxidation catalysts and supports for their construction. In this short review paper, we survey recent findings concerning use of MOFs in heterogeneous liquid-phase selective oxidation catalysis with the green oxidant–aqueous hydrogen peroxide. MOFs having outstanding thermal and chemical stability, such as Cr(III)-based MIL-101, Ti(IV)-based MIL-125, Zr(IV)-based UiO-66(67), Zn(II)-based ZIF-8, and some others, will be in the main focus of this work. The effects of the metal nature and MOF structure on catalytic activity and oxidation selectivity are analyzed and the mechanisms of hydrogen peroxide activation are discussed. In some cases, we also make an attempt to analyze relationships between liquid-phase adsorption properties of MOFs and peculiarities of their catalytic performance. Attempts of using MOFs as supports for construction of single-site catalysts through their modification with heterometals will be also addressed in relation to the use of such catalysts for activation of H2O2. Special attention is given to the critical issues of catalyst stability and reusability. The scope and limitations of MOF catalysts in H2O2-based selective oxidation are discussed.
