Moreover, the number of Lewis acid sites (LAS) or Brønsted acid sites (BAS) could be tuned by adjusting the amount of tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) in the synthesis process. The increased number of acid sites enhanced the adsorption capacity of the Pd-N@TS-1(1) catalyst for acetylene, thereby mitigating the deactivation of Pd sites by C₂H₂ under CO-rich conditions. Consequently, the optimized catalyst exhibited a high dialkoxycarbonylation selectivity of 97 % with a significantly improved cycling stability over five cycles. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the Pd-N site was the primary active center for CO activation, N doping reduced the adsorption energy of CO, promoted its enrichment, and increased the insertion frequency of CO, thereby enhanced the catalytic activity.

Although noble metal-based catalysts currently predominate in electrocatalytic NO reduction reaction (eNORR) research, their practical deployment remains constrained by excessive costs and limited atomic utilization efficiency. Non-noble metal corrolazines have shown remarkable catalytic capabilities in homogeneous systems, presenting innovative possibilities for eNORR implementation. Herein, we engineered a two-dimensional Fe-corrolazine single-atom catalyst (2D-Fe<sub>cor</sub> SAC) through alkynyl-bridged assembly of Fe-corrolazine units. Then extensive density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted to explore its structural and electronic properties, as well as its eNORR catalytic behavior. The results show 2D-Fe<sub>cor</sub> SAC exhibits excellent stability, and each Fe atom retains its catalytic active center, which can effectively adsorb and activate NO. Notably, 2D-Fe<sub>cor</sub> SAC exhibits superior eNORR performance via an N-distal pathway, achieving a low limiting potential of −0.44 V with significant suppression of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Crucially, aqueous environments enhance the catalytic efficiency and further reduce the limiting potential to −0.18 V. This significant activity originates from synergistic effects: the corrolazine framework enables precise electron transfer modulation while Fe centers facilitate efficient charge transport.
