Abstract Electrochemical oxidation of small molecules shows great promise to substitute oxygen evolution reaction (OER) or hydrogen (HOR) enhance kinetics and reduce energy consumption, as well produce high‐valued chemicals serve fuels. For these reactions, high‐valence metal sites generated at oxidative potentials are typically considered active trigger the process molecules. Isolated atom site catalysts (IASCs) have been developed an ideal system precisely regulate state coordination environment single‐metal centers, thus optimize their catalytic property. The isolated in IASCs inherently possess a positive state, can be more readily homogeneous under than nanoparticle counterparts. Meanwhile, merely centers but lack ensemble sites, which alter adsorption configurations compared with counterparts, induce various pathways mechanisms change product selectivity. More importantly, construction is discovered limit d‐electron back donation CO 2p * orbital overly strong on resolve poisoning problems most electro‐oxidation reactions improve stability.

Electrocatalytic nitrate reduction (NitRR) offers exciting potential for mass production of ammonia (NH3) from renewables. However, the rigidity metal−ligand bonds in most electrocatalysts renders them unable to survive structural transformations required NitRR. Herein, we establish a type non-rigid metal−oxygen by employing graphene oxide (GO) sheets as 'micron-scale' ligand transition metals (TM). Because being confined interfaces between GO and TM, oxygenated groups can associate with dissociate TM response reaction dynamics. As proof-of-concept demonstration, an electrocatalyst was developed dispersing nanoscale ruthenium (Ru) on utilizing two-dimensional MXene compensate low electrical conductivity GO. This exhibits maximum NH3 yield over 5 mg cm−2 h−1, almost 100 % current-to-NH3 efficiency, far outperforming performance reported Ru-based materials. What's even more remarkable is achievement record-breaking performance: 200-hour stable electrolysis 40.2 using membrane electrode reactor. Our experimental theoretical investigations further reveal non-rigidity Ru–O how they self-regulate adapt diverse intermediates involved work provides approach fabricate high-performance featuring reversible bonds, opening new possibilities practical electrolysis.
