Selective dissolution of perovskite A site (A of ABO<sub>3sub> structure) was performed on the La<sub>1 – xsub>Sr<sub>xsub>CoO<sub>3sub> catalysts for the NO<sub>xsub> storage and reduction (NSR) reaction. The surface area of the catalysts were enhanced using dilute HNO<sub>3sub> impregnation to dissolve Sr. Inactive SrCO<sub>3sub> was removed effectively within 6 h, and the catalyst preserved the perovskite framework after 24 h of treatment. The tuned catalysts exhibited higher NSR performance (both NO<sub>xsub> storage and NO-to-NO<sub>2sub> oxidation) under lean-burn and fuel-rich cycles at 250 °C. Large amounts of NO<sub>xsub> adsorption were due to the increase of nitrate/nitrite species bonding to the A site and the growth of newly formed monodentate nitrate species. Nitrate species were stored stably on the partial exposed Sr<sup>2+sup> cations. These exposed Sr<sup>2+sup> cations played an important role on the NO<sub>xsub> reduction by C<sub>3sub>H<sub>6sub>. High NO-to-NO<sub>2sub> oxidation ability was due to the generation of oxygen defects and Co<sup>2+sup>–Co<sup>3+sup> redox couples, which resulted from B-site exsolution induced by A-site dissolution. Hence, our method is facile to modify the surface structures of perovskite catalysts and provides a new strategy to obtain highly active catalysts for the NSR reaction.
