Peroxide-Selective Reduction of O 2 at Redox-Inactive Rare-Earth(III) Triflates Generates an Ambiphilic Peroxide

Metal peroxides are key species involved in a range of critical biological and synthetic processes. Rare-earth (group III and the lanthanides; Sc, Y, La–Lu) peroxides have been implicated as reactive intermediates in catalysis; however, reactivity studies of isolated, structurally characterized rare-earth peroxides have been limited. Herein, we report the peroxide-selective (93–99% O22-) reduction of dioxygen (O 2 ) at redox-inactive rare-earth triflates in methanol using a mild metallocene reductant, decamethylferrocene (Fc*). The first molecular praseodymium peroxide ([Pr III 2( O 2 2- )(18C6) 2 (EG)2][OTf]4; 18C6 = 18-crown-6, EG = ethylene glycol, - OTf = - O 3 SCF 3 ; 2-Pr) was isolated and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy. 2-Pr displays high thermal stability (120 °C, 50 mTorr), is protonated by mild organic acids [pK a1 (MeOH) = 5.09 ± 0.23], and engages in electrophilic (e.g., oxygen atom transfer) and nucleophilic (e.g., phosphate-ester cleavage) reactivity. Our mechanistic studies reveal that the rate of oxygen reduction is dictated by metal-ion accessibility, rather than Lewis acidity, and suggest new opportunities for differentiated reactivity of redox-inactive metal ions by leveraging weak metal–ligand binding events preceding electron transfer.

Protein Electric Fields Enable Faster and Longer-Lasting Covalent Inhibition of β-Lactamases

The widespread design of covalent drugs has focused on crafting reactive groups of proper electrophilicity and positioning towards targeted amino-acid nucleophiles. In this work, we found that environmental electric fields projected onto a reactive chemical bond, an overlooked design element, play essential roles in the covalent inhibition of TEM-1 beta-lactamase by avibactam. Using the vibrational Stark effect, the magnitudes of the electric fields that are exerted by TEM active sites onto avibactam’s reactive C=O were measured and demonstrate an electrostatic gating effect that promotes bond formation yet relatively suppresses the reverse dissociation. These results suggest new principles of covalent drug design and off-target site prediction. Unlike shape and electrostatic complementary which address binding constants, electrostatic catalysis drives reaction rates, essential for covalent inhibition, and deepens our understanding of chemical reactivity, selectivity, and stability in complex systems.

Mechanistic Investigation of the Ce(III) Chloride Photoredox Catalysis System: Understanding the Role of Alcohols as Additives

Photocatalytic C–H activation is an emerging area of research. While cerium chloride photocatalysts have been extensively studied, the role of alcohol additives in these systems remains a subject of ongoing discussion. It was demonstrated that the photocatalyst [NEt 4 ] 2 [Ce IV Cl 6 ] ( 1 ) produces •Cl and added alcohols exhibit zero-order kinetics. Prior studies by other researchers suggested that 1 and alcohols lead to cerium alkoxide [Ce–OR] and alkoxy radical intermediates. Here, to understand these seemingly divergent mechanistic proposals, an expanded investigation comparing cerium(IV) catalyst 1 and cerium(III) complex [NEt 4 ] 3 [Ce III Cl 6 ] ( 2 ), which exhibit markedly different reactivity and C–H selectivity, is disclosed. Our findings reveal that alcohol additives accelerate the conversion of cerium(III) to cerium(IV) catalysts, forming key intermediates such as [NEt 4 ] 2 [Ce III Cl 5 (HOCH 3 )] ( 5 ) and [NEt 4 ] 2 [Ce IV Cl 5 (OCH 3 )] ( 6 ), driven by excited-state di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate under blue light irradiation. The active complex 6 releases the •OCH 3 radical, in sharp contrast to •Cl radicals initiated by cerium(IV) photoredox catalyst 1 . These different reactivity and selectivity profiles can be understood in the context of complex 5 generation and in situ formation of base to afford complex 6 . Experimental validation shows enhanced selectivity toward C–H bonds with different reactivity with catalyst 1 and methanol upon the addition of base and decreased selectivity with catalyst 2 and methanol upon the addition of acid. These findings unify the previously contrasting observations of cerium halide/alkoxide photocatalytic systems and provide a comprehensive understanding on the essential role of base/acid and alcohol in selectivity and reactivity.

Defect-Driven Redox Interplay on Anatase TiO 2 : Surface-Structure Dependent Activation for CO 2 Hydrogenation Catalysis

Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) is one of the most extensively studied oxides as an active catalyst or catalyst support, particularly in energy and environmental applications, but the atomistic mechanisms governing its dynamic response to reactive environments and their correlation to reactivity remain largely elusive. Using in situ environmental transmission electron microscopy (ETEM), synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD), ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AP-XPS), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), reactivity measurements, and theoretical modeling, we reveal the dynamic interplay between oxygen loss and replenishment of anatase TiO 2 under varying reactive conditions. Under H 2 exposure, anatase TiO 2 undergoes surface reduction via lattice oxygen loss, forming Ti 3 O 5 . In contrast, CO 2 exposure induces oxygen replenishment, reversing stoichiometry. In mixed H2/CO 2 environments, the reverse water–gas shift (RWGS) reaction proceeds selectively on stepped and high-indexed TiO 2 surfaces, whereas the thermodynamically stable TiO 2 (101) surface remains inactive and intact. Critically, H 2 pretreatment generates oxygen vacancies on TiO 2 (101), transforming it into an active Ti 3 O 5 or defect-rich surface that catalyzes RWGS. By correlating surface structure, defect dynamics, and gas-phase interactions, this work deciphers the competition between H 2 -driven reduction and CO 2 -driven oxidation pathways at the atomic scale. Furthermore, these insights establish defect engineering as a strategic lever to activate inert TiO 2 facets, advancing the design of adaptive catalysts for sustainable fuel synthesis technologies.

Automated Symbolic Upscaling: 2. Model Generation for Extended Applicability Regimes

Abstract In this second part of the two paper series, we detail an algorithmic procedure for systematically implementing the generalized closure form strategy presented in Part 1. This strategy extends the applicability of homogenized models with respect to classical homogenization theory, as demonstrated in Part 1 where upscaled models are rigorously derived in moderately reactive physical regimes. After encoding the algorithm into Symbolica, an automated upscaling framework, we upscale two reactive mass transport problems and numerically validate the resulting nonlinear homogenized models by showing the absolute error estimates predicted by homogenization theory are satisfied. In both problems, nontrivial closure forms and closure problems are automatically formulated using the encoded strategy with no human interaction, nor prior knowledge regarding the closure required for the systems. We hope these demonstrations spark further interest in automated analytical frameworks for multiscale modeling, as such capabilities are invaluable for generating rigorous multiscale models of complex phenomena in porous media.

Fault Slip and Fluid Flow: Seismic Source Analysis to Assess Role of Multiple Slip Patches in Fault Permeability

The relationship between fault reactivation, microearthquakes (MEQs), and permeability evolution during fluid injection plays a critical role in energy harvesting and waste disposal. Recent studies have demonstrated the possibility of predicting fault permeability using cumulative seismic moments of MEQs quantitatively. To understand the underlying physical processes, we conduct fault reactivation experiments using Utah FORGE granitoid and analyze acoustic emission (AE) signals generated during stepwise increases in fluid injection pressure. Frequency analysis of thousands of calibrated AE signals reveals that fault reactivation produces multiple AE source patches with millimeter-scale radii—smaller than the sample fault radius. The cumulative area of the reactivated patches covers the fault multiple times over (∼10x–50x area) for each pressure step. These findings provide mechanistic insight that measured permeability enhancement is not driven by a single large slip event, but by the sequential and interacting activation of multiple slip patches that create a continuous flow pathway.

Novel niobium-doped titanium oxide towards electrochemical destruction of forever chemicals

Electrochemical advanced oxidative processes (EAOP) are a promising route to destroy recalcitrant organic contaminants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water. Central to EAOP are catalysis-induced reactive free radicals for breaking the carbon fluorine bonds in PFAS. Generating these reactive species electrochemically at electrodes provides an advantage over other oxidation processes that rely on chemicals or other harsh conditions. Herein, we report on the performance of niobium (Nb) doped rutile titanium oxide (TiO 2 ) as a novel EAOP catalytic material, combining theoretical modeling with experimental synthesis and characterization. Calculations based on density functional theory are used to predict the overpotential for oxygen evolution at these candidate electrodes, which must be high in order to oxidize PFAS. The results indicate a non-monotonic trend in which Nb doping below 6.25 at.% is expected to reduce performance relative to TiO 2 , while higher concentrations up to 12.5 at.% lead to increased performance, approaching that of state-of-the-art Magnéli Ti 4 O 7 . TiO 2 samples were synthesized with Nb doping concentration at 10 at.%, heat treated at temperatures from 800 to 1100 °C, and found to exhibit high oxidative stability and high generation of reactive oxygen free radical species. The capability of Nb-doped TiO 2 to destroy two common species of PFAS in challenge water was tested, and moderate reduction by ~ 30% was observed, comparable to that of Ti 4 O 7 using a simple three-electrode configuration. We conclude that Nb-doped TiO 2 is a promising alternative EAOP catalytic material with increased activity towards generating reactive oxygen species and warrants further development for electrochemically destroying PFAS contaminants.

Single-molecule reaction mapping uncovers diverse behaviours of electrocatalytic surface Pd–H intermediates

Many vital electrocatalytic transformations hinge on reactive surface metal–hydrogen intermediates (M–H*), yet the low concentration and transient nature of such intermediates present formidable challenges to in-depth investigation. Here we use single-molecule super-resolution reaction imaging to directly probe surface palladium–hydrogen (Pd–H*) intermediates on individual palladium nanocubes during electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution. Our approach visualizes hydrogen spillover from palladium to the surrounding substrate surface over hundreds of nanometres away and dissects substantial inter- and intraparticle heterogeneity. Through Gaussian-broadening kinetic analysis, we reveal that ensemble-averaged measurements systematically overestimate the stability of Pd–H*. Moreover, we resolve three subpopulations of palladium nanocubes with distinct reactivity features, uncovering critical correlations between intermediate stability, hydrogenation reactivity and transition-state properties. Finally, our findings highlight the necessity of single-particle resolution for capturing the intrinsic complexity of electrocatalysts; our approach is also broadly applicable to interrogate surface-reactive intermediates across a wide array of electrocatalytic pathways.

In crystallo organometallic chemistry

X-ray crystallography is an invaluable tool in design and development of organometallic catalysis, but application typically requires species to display sufficiently high solution concentrations and lifetimes for single crystalline samples to be obtained. In crystallo organometallic chemistry relies on chemical reactions that proceed within the single-crystal environment to access crystalline samples of reactive organometallic fragments that are unavailable by alternate means. Furthermore, this highlight describes approaches to in crystallo organometallic chemistry including (a) solid–gas reactions between transition metal complexes in molecular crystals and diffusing small molecules, (b) reactions of organometallic complexes within the extended lattices of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), and (c) intracrystalline photochemical transformations to generate reactive organometallic fragments. Application of these methods has enabled characterization of catalytically important transient species, including σ-alkane adducts of transition metals, metal alkyl intermediates implicated in metal-catalyzed carbonylations, and reactive M–L multiply bonded species involved in C–H functionalization chemistry. Opportunities and challenges for in crystallo organometallic chemistry are discussed.

Elucidating the role of earth alkaline doping in perovskite-based methane dry reforming catalysts

To elucidate the role of earth alkaline doping in perovskite-based dry reforming of methane (DRM) catalysts, we embarked on a comparative and exemplary study of a Ni-based Sm perovskite with and without Sr doping. While the Sr-doped material appears as a structure-pure Sm 1.5 Sr 0.5 NiO 4 Ruddlesden Popper structure, the undoped material is a NiO/monoclinic Sm 2 O 3 composite. Hydrogen pre-reduction or direct activation in the DRM mixture in all cases yields either active Ni/Sm 2 O 3 or Ni/Sm 2 O 3 /SrCO 3 materials, with albeit different short-term stability and deactivation behavior. The much smaller Ni particle size after hydrogen reduction of Sm 1.5 Sr 0.5 NiO 4 , and of generally all undoped materials stabilizes the short and long-term DRM activity. Carbon dioxide reactivity manifests itself in the direct formation of SrCO 3 in the case of Sm 1.5 Sr 0.5 NiO 4 , which is dominant at high temperatures. For Sm 1.5 Sr 0.5 NiO 4 , the CO : H 2 ratio exceeds 1 at these temperatures, which is attributed to faster direct carbon dioxide conversion to SrCO 3 without catalytic DRM reactivity. As no Sm 2 O 2 CO 3 surface or bulk phase as a result of carbon dioxide activation was observed for any material – in contrast to La 2 O 2 CO 3 – we suggest that oxy-carbonate formation plays only a minor role for DRM reactivity. Rather, we identify surface graphitic carbon as the potentially reactive intermediate. Graphitic carbon has already been shown as a crucial reaction intermediate in metal-oxide DRM catalysts and appears both for Sm 1.5 Sr 0.5 NiO 4 and NiO/monoclinic Sm 2 O 3 after reaction as crystalline structure. It is significantly more pronounced for the latter due to the higher amount of oxygen-deficient monoclinic Sm 2 O 3 facilitating carbon dioxide activation. Despite the often reported beneficial role of earth alkaline dopants in DRM catalysis, we show that the situation is more complex. In our studies, the detrimental role of earth alkaline doping manifests itself in the exclusive formation of the sole stable carbonated species and a general destabilization of the Ni/monoclinic Sm 2 O 3 interface by favoring Ni particle sintering.

Mechanochemical synthesis and structural analysis of trivalent lanthanide and uranium diphenylphosphinodiboranates

Phosphinodiboranates (H 3 BPR 2 BH 3 – ) are a class of borohydrides that have merited a reputation as weakly coordinating anions, which is attributed in part to the dearth of coordination complexes known with transition metals, lanthanides, and actinides. We recently reported how K(H 3 BP t Bu 2 BH 3 ) exhibits sluggish salt elimination reactivity with f-metal halides in organic solvents such as Et 2 O and THF. Here we report how this reactivity appears to be further attenuated in solution when the t Bu groups attached to phosphorus are exchanged for R = Ph or H, and we describe how mechanochemistry was used to overcome limited solution reactivity with K(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ). Grinding three equivalents of K(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ) with UI 3 (THF) 4 or LnI 3 (Ln = Ce, Pr, Nd) allowed homoleptic complexes with the empirical formulas U(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ) 3 (1), Ce(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ) 3 (2), Pr(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ) 3 (3), and Nd(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ) 3 (4) to be prepared and subsequently crystallized in good yields (50–80%). Single-crystal XRD studies revealed that all four complexes exist as dimers or coordination polymers in the solid-state, whereas 1 H and 11 B NMR spectra showed that they exist as a mixture of monomers and dimers in solution. Treating 4 with THF breaks up the dimer to yield the monomeric complex Nd(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ) 3 (THF) 3 (4-THF). XRD studies revealed that 4-THF has one chelating and two dangling H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 – ligands bound to the metal to accommodate binding of THF. In contrast to the results with K(H 3 BPPh 2 BH 3 ), attempting the same mechanochemical reactions with Na(H 3 BPH 2 BH 3 ) containing the simplest phosphinodiboranate were unsuccessful; only the partial metathesis product U(H 3 BPH 2 BH 3 )I 2 (THF) 3 (5) was isolated in poor yields. Here, despite these limitations, our results offer new examples showing how mechanochemistry can be used to rapidly synthesize molecular coordination complexes that are otherwise difficult to prepare using more traditional solution methods.

A perspective on iron (Fe) in the atmosphere: air quality, climate, and the ocean

As scientists engage in research motivated by climate change and the impacts of pollution on air, water, and human health, we increasingly recognize the need for the scientific community to improve communication and knowledge exchange across disciplines to address pressing and outstanding research questions holistically. Our professional paths have crossed because our research activities focus on the chemical reactivity of Fe-containing minerals in air and water, and at the air-sea interface. (Photo)chemical reactions driven by Fe can take place at the surface of the particles/droplets or within the condensed phase. The extent and rates of these reactions are influenced by water content and biogeochemical activity ubiquitous in these systems. One of these reactions is the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause damage to respiratory organs. Another is that the reactivity of Fe and organics in aerosol particles alter surficial physicochemical properties that impact aerosol-radiation and aerosol–cloud interactions. Also, upon deposition, aerosol particles influence ocean biogeochemical processes because micronutrients such as Fe or toxic elements such as copper become bioavailable. We provide a perspective on these topics and future research directions on the reactivity of Fe in atmospheric aerosol systems, from sources to short- and long-term impacts at the sinks with emphasis on needs to enhance the predictive power of atmospheric and ocean models.

Isoenergetic two-photon excitation enhances solvent-to-solute excited-state proton transfer

Two-photon excitation (TPE) is an attractive means for controlling chemistry in both space and time. Since isoenergetic one- and twophoton excitations (OPE and TPE) in non-centrosymmetric molecules are allowed to reach the same excited state, it is usually assumed that they produce similar excited-state reactivity. We compare the solvent-to-solute excited-state proton transfer of the super photobase FR0-SB following isoenergetic OPE and TPE. We find up to 62% increased reactivity following TPE compared to OPE. From steady-state spectroscopy, we rule out the involvement of different excited states and find that OPE and TPE spectra are identical in non-polar solvents but not in polar ones. We propose that differences in the matrix elements that contribute to the two-photon absorption cross sections lead to the observed enhanced isoenergetic reactivity, consistent with the predictions of our high-level coupledcluster-based computational protocol. We find that polar solvent configurations favor greater dipole moment change between ground and excited states, which enters the probability for TPE as the absolute value squared. This, in turn, causes a difference in the Franck– Condon region reached via TPE compared to OPE. We conclude that a new method has been found for controlling chemical reactivity via the matrix elements that affect two-photon cross sections, which may be of great utility for spatial and temporal precision chemistry.

Hidden features in the OH-stretching spectra of amino acid decorated air–water interfaces

Chemical reactivity at the air–water interface is governed by the interfacial solvation of reactive species. For instance, during aqueous amino acid-based CO 2 absorption, water reorganizes around the reactive sites and couples dynamically with reaction pathways, facilitating the reaction. In this context, surface-sensitive vibrational sum-frequency generation (vSFG) spectroscopy can probe the OH stretch vibrations of interfacial water and determine the solvation structures around reactants and products, thereby furthering our understanding of the role of interfacial solvation. However, vSFG spectra of the air–water interface in the presence of charged species can be remarkably complex; key species-bound local water structures with distinct orientations may be hidden beneath prominent vSFG peaks arising from water–water hydrogen bonds and remain difficult to resolve. Here, we measure and compute vSFG spectra of the water OH stretch at air–water interfaces decorated with amino acids in their zwitterionic and anionic forms, as well as equimolar mixtures of these forms with bicarbonate. The latter represents post-CO 2 -absorption conditions. We find that computing depth- and frequency-dependent spectral densities—decomposed into contributions from water molecules hydrogen-bonded exclusively to other water molecules, exclusively to amines, exclusively to carboxylates, or shared between these polar/charged groups—is indispensable for accurate interpretation of the vSFG spectra. Key findings include orientational flip-flop in water sub-layers, strong carboxylate-water H-bonding, and water orientational ordering extending into the bulk aqueous phase induced by anionic amino acids. Here, this study provides a computational spectroscopic platform for improved understanding of interfacial solvation relevant to interfacial reactivity.

Direct functionalization of C-H bonds by electrophilic anions

Bond formation between two of the most inert molecules, alkanes and [B12X12]2- (X = Cl, Br), is performed in a two step process. Fragmentation of [B12X12]2- in the gas phase generates highly reactive [B12X11]- ions which spontaneously react with alkanes. The reaction mechanism was investigated using tandem mass spectrometry and gas-phase vibrational spectroscopy combined with electronic structure calculations. This effort revealed the unprecedented and counterintuitive electrophilic substitution of a proton in an alkane by a negatively charged ion resulting in a B-C bond formation. The product is a dianionic [B12X11CnH2n+1]2- species, in which H+ is electrostatically bound to the dianion. High flux ion soft-landing was performed to co-deposit [B12X11]- and complex organic molecules (phthalates) in thin layers on surfaces. Molecular structure analysis of the product films revealed that C-H functionalization by [B12X11]- occured in the presence of other more reactive functional groups. This observation demonstrates the utility of highly reactive fragment ions for defined bond formation processes and may pave the way to the use of gas phase ion chemistry for chemical synthesis in the condensed phase.

Quantitative Trade-Off in Distributed Secondary Control for Autonomous AC Microgrids

In this paper, we propose to quantify the trade-off between voltage regulation and reactive power sharing in autonomous AC microgrids with distributed secondary control. It is known that voltage regulation and reactive power sharing in droop-controlled autonomous AC microgrids are two conflicting control objectives that present a natural trade-off between voltage regulation towards the voltage magnitude reference and reactive power sharing accuracy. This trade-off is commonly shown qualitatively without sufficient quantification. In this work, to quantify the trade-off between the two objectives, we focus on distributed secondary control and utilize regression and polynomial surface fitting to identify the requisite parameter area to satisfy the predefined error bands for voltage magnitude regulation and reactive power sharing. Extensive case studies are presented to validate the proposed method.

Volt-VAR Optimization in Distribution Networks Using Twin Delayed Deep Reinforcement Learning

Modern distribution grids are undergoing new challenges due to the stochastic nature of distributed energy resources (DERs). High penetration of DERs has a significant impact on Volt-VAR profile and system power losses. This work proposes a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based Volt-VAR optimization approach for improving voltage profile and reducing system power loss under high penetration of distributed energy resources, such as battery energy storage and solar photovoltaic units in distribution grids. The twin delayed deep deterministic policy gradient (TD3) method-based DRL agent is proposed to configure optimal set-points of reactive power outputs of fast responding smart inverters. The agent schedules the reactive power of inverters according to their physical capabilities, such as minimum allowed power factor, e.g., 0.9 leading/lagging. The reward function of the proposed DRL scheme is designed carefully to ensure a proper voltage profile of the grids with effective scheduling of reactive power outputs from inverters. The performance of the proposed model is verified on modified IEEE 34- and 123-bus systems and compared with base case with no reactive supply by inverters, and local droop Volt-VAR control approach. The results show that the proposed method performs better than the local droop control and deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG)-based DRL method for reducing voltage fluctuation and minimizing power loss.
