Evidence of bifunctionality of carbons and metal atoms in catalyzed acetylene hydrochlorination

Abstract Carbon supports are ubiquitous components of heterogeneous catalysts for acetylene hydrochlorination to vinyl chloride, from commercial mercury-based systems to more sustainable metal single-atom alternatives. Their potential co-catalytic role has long been postulated but never unequivocall...
