Abstract

Based on the structure of the nitrogenase FeMo cofactor (FeMoco), it is reported that Fe deposited on MoS2 2D sheets exhibits high selectivity towards the spontaneous fixation of N2 against chemisorption of CO2 and H2 O. DFT predictions also indicate the ability of this material to convert N2 into NH3 with a maximum energy input of 1.02 eV as an activation barrier for the first proton-electron pair transfer.
