Electrochemical is considered an attractive approach to recycling the pollution NO (NORR) and producing the valuable NH₃, which could simultaneously solve the two challenging problems, i.e., NO removal and NH₃ synthesis. Current research efforts focus less on NORR due to the lack of effective catalysts. Herein, based on DFT calculation, we try to explore effective pyrrole-type TM-N₄ (TM = V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ru, Rh, Ta) catalysts for achieving the direct NORR. Among the investigated systems, Fe-N₄ exhibits excellent catalytic activity and high NH₃ selectivity. Moreover, the free energy of adsorption of N^* has been proposed as a descriptor to predict and screen the effective TM-N₄ catalyst for NORR and the crystal orbital halmilton populations (COHP) is used to describe the intrinsic relationship between metal atoms and the adsorption free energy of N^* intermediate. This work has provided a theoretical picture of TM-N₄ catalyzing NO to NH₃, which will establish guidelines for the rational design of NORR catalysts and other electrochemical reactions.
