[Display omitted] •Atomically dispersed Pt-rTiO2 catalyst shows good catalytic performance for PDH.•Single and dual Pt atoms can be tightly held by vacancies created on reduced TiO2.•Dual-Pt-atom structure is the active ensemble for the CH bond activation. Tailoring atomically dispersed catalysts by...
