Abstract
In the August issue of Cell Reports Physical Science, Yao, Dai, Wang, and co-workers develop a self-adaptive Pd/Nb2O5 catalyst that dynamically reconstructs its interface for aliphatic alkynes but remains stable for aromatic ones. This intelligent modulation induces an attritionary active site, enabling a 40-fold higher reaction rate than the Lindlar catalyst and breaking the activity-selectivity trade-off.
