<p>Understanding the mechanism of catalytic hydrogenation at the local environment requires chemical and topographic information involving catalytic sites, active hydrogen species and their spatial distribution. Here, tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) was employed to study the catalytic hydrogenation of chloro-nitrobenzenethiol on a well-defined Pd(sub-monolayer)/Au(111) bimetallic catalyst (<i>p</i><sub>H2</sub>=1.5 bar, 298 K), where the surface topography and chemical fingerprint information were simultaneously mapped with nanoscale resolution (≈10 nm). TERS imaging of the surface after catalytic hydrogenation confirms that the reaction occurs beyond the location of Pd sites. The results demonstrate that hydrogen spillover accelerates hydrogenation at the Au sites within 20 nm from the bimetallic Pd/Au boundary. Density functional theory was used to elucidate the thermodynamics of interfacial hydrogen transfer. We demonstrate that TERS as a powerful analytical tool provides a unique approach to spatially investigate the local structure-reactivity relationship in catalysis.</p>

Herein we report the preparation of a series of Ru(II) complexes featuring alpha-iminopyridine ligands bearing thioether functionality (NNS<sup>R</sup>, where R = Me, CH<sub>2</sub>Ph, Ph). Metallation using (<i>p</i> cymene)RuCl dimer permits access to (k<sup>2</sup>-N,N)Ru complexes in which the thioether moiety remains uncoordinated. In the presence of a strong field ligand such as acetonitrile or triphenylphosphine, the p-cymene moiety is displaced, and the ligand adopts a k<sup>3</sup>-N,N,S binding mode. These complexes are characterized using a combination of solution and solid state methods, including the crystal structure of [(NNS<sup>Me</sup>)Ru(NCMe)<sub>2</sub>Cl]Cl. The k<sup>2</sup>-N,N Ru(II) complexes are shown to serve as efficient precatalysts for the oxidation of sec-phenethyl alcohol at 5 mol% loadings, using a variety of external oxidants and solvents. The complex bearing an S-Ph donor was found to be the most active of those surveyed, suggesting that the thioether donor plays an active role in catalyst speciation for this transformation.
