To explore how oxygen vacancy manipulation regulates Ni valency and improves proton conduction for glutaric acid synthesis.
Examined the impact of oxygen vacancies on Ni valency and water network dynamics.
Investigated the formation of NiOOH.
Analyzed the efficiency of glutaric acid synthesis under various conditions.
Demonstrated enhanced proton conduction linked to dual regulation of Ni valency.
Achieved significant increases in 1,5-glutaric acid yields through optimized conditions.
Showed a mechanistic connection between NiOOH formation and interfacial water behavior.
Abstract
Oxygen vacancy-induced dual regulation of Ni valency and the interfacial water network synchronizes NiOOH reconstruction and proton conduction for highly efficient 1,5-glutaric acid synthesis.
