Construction of N-Fe-S bridge in atomic iron catalyst for boosting Fenton-like reactions
Constructing the coordination environment of single-atom catalysts (SACs) can be an attractive technical strategy to regulate the generation of reactive oxygen species for Fenton-like reactions. Herein, we have constructed an asymmetric coordination of Fe single-atom catalyst (Fe SA -NS-PCNS) with abundant N-Fe-S bridge (Fe SA -N 3 S 1 ) for robust Fenton-like reactions. 82.5 % of singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) selectivity and high turnover frequency of bisphenol A degradation (0.568 min −1 ) were achieved at mild conditions. Experimental works and theoretical analyses illustrated that S doping breaks the inert environment of the original N-Fe-N symmetric coordination equilibrium and modulates the electron density of the atomic Fe center, which is beneficial for boosting PMS adsorption and reducing the energy barriers of vital *OH and *O intermediates. The coupling between the Fe SA -N 3 S 1 interface and peroxymonosulfate molecule boosts in-situ electron transfer through the N-Fe-S bridge, which induces more electron flow from the low valence Fe to OH* on the surface of Fe-*O-H, forming a high yield of 1 O 2 . Moreover, we designed the Fenton-like reactions by Fe SA -NS-PCNS membrane reactor for an efficient contaminant removal rate of over 90 % even after 11 cycles. This work provides a novel perspective on developing SACs with asymmetric coordination to regulate reactive oxygen species for the treatment of organic contaminants in water bodies.
