Recently, superhydrides have been computationally identified and subsequently synthesized with a variety of metals at very high pressures. In this work, we evaluate the possibility of synthesizing superhydrides by uniquely combining electrochemistry and applied pressure. We perform computational searches using density functional theory and particle swarm optimization calculations over a broad range of pressures and electrode potentials. Using a thermodynamic analysis, we construct pressure–potential phase diagrams and provide an alternate synthesis concept, pressure–potential (P2), to access phases having high hydrogen content. Palladium–hydrogen is a widely studied material system with the highest hydride phase being Pd3H4. Most strikingly for this system, at potentials above hydrogen evolution and ∼ 300 MPa pressure, we find the possibility to make palladium superhydrides (e.g., PdH10). We predict the generalizability of this approach for La-H, Y-H, and Mg-H with 10- to 100-fold reduction in required pressure for stabilizing phases. In addition, the P2 strategy allows stabilizing additional phases that cannot be done purely by either pressure or potential and is a general approach that is likely to work for synthesizing other hydrides at modest pressures.

The structure of the metabolic network contains myriad organism-specific variations across the tree of life, but the selection basis for pathway choices in different organisms is not well understood. Here, we examined the metabolic capabilities with respect to cofactor use and pathway thermodynamics of all sequenced organisms in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes Database. We found that (i) many biomass precursors have alternate synthesis routes that vary substantially in thermodynamic favorability and energy cost, creating tradeoffs that may be subject to selection pressure; (ii) alternative pathways in amino acid synthesis are characteristically distinguished by the use of biosynthetically unnecessary acyl-CoA cleavage; (iii) distinct choices preferring thermodynamic-favorable or cofactor-use–efficient pathways exist widely among organisms; (iv) cofactor-use–efficient pathways tend to have a greater yield advantage under anaerobic conditions specifically; and (v) lysine biosynthesis in particular exhibits temperature-dependent thermodynamics and corresponding differential pathway choice by thermophiles. These findings present a view on the evolution of metabolic network structure that highlights a key role of pathway thermodynamics and cofactor use in determining organism pathway choices.
