A series of bimetallic Pd–Ag/SiO2 catalysts with Ag enriched on the surface were prepared by galvanic displacement. The bimetallic effect for these catalysts on acetylene hydrogenation was discussed.

To obtain a catalyst based on a non-precious metal that can replace traditional palladium-based selective catalysts of acetylene hydrogenation, the catalytic performances of two different configurations of a B12N12 cluster doped with a single nickel atom were studied by a density functional theory computational approach. After analysing the effect that the adsorption of reactants onto the clusters has on the reaction path, we determined the lowest energy path for the acetylene double hydrogenation. Comparing the acetylene hydrogenation activities and ethylene product selectivities of the B11N12Ni and B12N11Ni clusters, which have different doping sites, we determined the activities of these two catalysts to be similar to each other; however, the B11N12Ni cluster was calculated to have higher selectivity for ethylene as a product. This difference may be related to the moderate adsorption of hydrogen and acetylene on the B11N12Ni cluster. As a new type of nickel-based single-atom catalyst, B11N12Ni clusters may have research value in the selective hydrogenation of acetylene.

To exploit the excellent properties of g-C3N4, more and more studies have been carried out in various fields in recent years to improve the selectivity of catalysts, especially for selective acetylene hydrogenation. To our best knowledge, Pd catalyst is of great importance to hydrogenate acetylene in ethylene feed. Though we have explored the hydrogenation of acetylene catalyzed by Pd1/g-C3N4 before, doping with non-metals has never been studied. In this work, the mechanisms of selective hydrogenation of acetylene to ethylene on S-doped Pd1/g-C3N4 were investigated and we also compared this result with undoped Pd1/g-C3N4. By comparing the activation energy and selectivity of undoped Pd1/g-C3N4 with those of S-doped C and N sites of Pd1/g-C3N4, we found that S-doped C sites can improve the reactivity, but with a poor selectivity, while the activity of S atom doped N sites was not improved, but the selectivity has improved. Our work provides significant insights to explore the development of high efficiency non-metallic doping single metal atoms supported on 2D layered materials.
