Closed-Loop Electrolyte Design for Lithium-Mediated Ammonia Synthesis.

ABSTRACT: Novel methods for producing ammonia, a large-scale industrial chemical, are necessary for reducing the environmental impact of its production. Lithium-mediated electrochemical nitrogen reduction is one attractive alternative method for producing ammonia. In this work, we experimentally tested several classes of proton donors for activity in the lithium-mediated approach. From these data, an interpretable data-driven classification model is constructed to distinguish between active and inactive proton donors; solvatochromic Kamlet-Taft parameters emerged to be the key descriptors for predicting nitrogen reduction activity. A deep learning model is trained to predict these parameters using experimental data from the literature. The combination of the classification and deep learning models p
