Just Accepted “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society provides “Just Accepted” as a service to the research community to expedite the dissemination of scientific material as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full in PDF format accompanied by an HTML abstract. “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been fully peer reviewed, but should not be considered the official version of record. They are citable by the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®). “Just Accepted” is an optional service offered to authors. Therefore, the “Just Accepted” Web site may not include all articles that will be published in the journal. After a manuscript is technically edited and formatted, it will be removed from the “Just Accepted” Web site and published as an ASAP article.

ABSTRACT: The intrinsic reactivity of atomically dispersed gold catalysts for low-temperature (L-T) CO oxidation remains an elusive issue. Here two kinds of atomically dispersed gold with different loadings supported on nano-ceria prepared via a deposition precipitation (DP) method were evaluated as catalysts for L-T CO oxidation. Much distinct differences in catalyzing CO oxidation behaviors were exhibited on the two kinds of gold catalysts. These weakly anchored gold species in 1% Au/CeO2 (1 wt% gold loading) catalyst revealed increasing reactivity under the reaction condition, while these strongly anchored ones in 0.5% Au/CeO2 (0.5 wt% gold loading) catalyst were inactive. For 1% Au/CeO2 catalyst, in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy (DRIFTS) proved the gold species transformation from Aun+ (1 ≤ n < 3) to Auδ+ (0 < δ
