Abstract

In order to disclose the reason that the N-doped carbon support can enhance the stability of Au-based catalysts for acetylene hydrochlorination, we established a big graphene cluster model of C110H28 to investigate the effect of different nitrogen-doped carbon supports on three kinds of gold species models of Au dimers, Au2Cl2 and Au2Cl6, through DFT calculations. Comparing the adsorption energy of each Au complex and the transferred charge from the support to the Au complex, it is observed that on the N-doped support GRN-I (the pyridinic N-doped graphene) the adsorption energies of the Au dimer, Au2Cl2 and Au2Cl6, are much higher than those on other three kinds of supports, and the Au complex accepts most of the transferred charges from the support of GRN-I. The effect of different supports on the adsorption of C2H2 and HCl was studied on Au2Cl6/supports, suggesting that the co-adsorption of both reactants occurs on Au2Cl6/GRN-I. The results indicate that the N-doped support of GRN-I can stabilize the gold species Au2Cl6 and enhance the interaction between Au2Cl6 and HCl, which can inhibit the reduction of Au3+ and then increase the long-term stability of Au-based catalysts.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
