Abstract

High-level double-hybrid DFT simulations reveal that strong hydrogen-bond-donor catalysts (e.g., ethylene glycol, guanidine, and thiourea) significantly accelerate the migration of epoxy oxygen on the surface of graphene oxide, enhancing the reaction rate by 6-12 orders of magnitude. These results shed light on previously puzzling experimental observations.
