Adjacent single-atom irons boosting molecular oxygen activation on MnO2

Efficient oxygen activation is crucial for catalytic oxidation reaction, but highly depends on the construction of active sites. Here, dual adjacent Fe atoms anchored on MnO2 can assemble into a diatomic site, which activates molecular oxygen to form an active intermediate species Fe(O = O)Fe for CO...
