Various characterization studies indicate that oxygen excess system like LaMnO3 presents substantial resistance to B site doping with Pt. This behavior is different from other oxygen deficient perovskites like LaCoO3 and LaFeO3 in which lattice incorporation stabilizes the active species against sintering. Water gas shift reaction was used as a probe reaction to understand the effect of this difference in the activity. In case of LaMnO3, failure in lattice substitution leads to sintering and deactivation at high synthesis temperatures (&amp;gt;= 700 degrees C) in both impregnated and doped samples. In doped samples, however, a strong interaction of Pt species with a persistent amorphous phase prevents sintering at lower synthesis temperature thereby enhancing the activity when compared to impregnated sample. The study reveals a possible mechanism in which only Pt(0) species is active with perovskite playing a minimal role in this system due to the resistance to lattice incorporation.

Pt-doped BaCeO3 perovskite, moderately active for water gas shift reaction, is selected for further understanding the role of oxygen vacancies, since perovskite lattice can tolerate and stabilize vacancies facilitating an accurate quantification. Vacancies are created in the system by systematic doping of increasing amounts of Y. Structure and activity studies reveal that the 6% Y-substituted compound which has the most symmetric B site coordination environment exhibits the highest activity. Hence, it is not the extent of vacancies but their structural characteristics which are found to be decisive. Symmetric coordination around B ions facilitates water adsorption and dissociation by lowering the energy barriers due to the creation of an isotropic environment.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">36</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;5.20&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
