Impact of metal and active site configurations in hydrogenation reactions with N-doped graphene single atom catalysts

A computational study of graphene SACs (Fe, Co, Mn, Ru) shows that the active-site configuration dictates hydrogenation: pyrrolic NHNH is the most preferred, except for Ru. NBO/NEDA rationalize trends, guiding design beyond metal choice.
