Abstract | Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production by the electrochemical 2-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e(-) ORR) is a promising alternative to the energy-intensive anthraquinone process, and single-atom electrocatalysts show the unique capability of high selectivity toward 2e(-) ORR against the 4e(-) one. The extremely low surface density of the single-atom sites and the inflexibility in manipulating their geometric/electronic configurations, however, compromise the H2O2 yield and impede further performance enhancement. Herein, we construct a family of multiatom catalysts (MACs), on which two or three single atoms are closely coordinated to form high-density active sites that are versatile in their atomic configurations for optimal adsorption of essential *OOH species. Among them, the Co-x-Ni MAC presents excellent electrocatalytic performance for 2e(-) ORR, in terms of its exceptionally high H2O2 yield in acidic electrolytes (28.96 mol L-1 g(cat.)(-1) h(-1)) and high selectivity under acidic to neutral conditions in a wide potential region (>80%, 0-0.7 V). Operando X-ray absorption and density functional theory analyses jointly unveil its unique trimetallic Co2NiN8 configuration, which efficiently induces an appropriate Ni-d orbital filling and modulates the *OOH adsorption, together boosting the electrocatalytic 2e(-) ORR capability. This work thus provides a new MAC strategy for tuning the geometric/electronic structure of active sites for 2e(-) ORR and other potential electrochemical processes. |
