    We report herein the basicity of the external and internal lattice oxygen (O<inf>L</inf>) in lepidocrocite titanates with respect to CO<inf>2</inf> and palmitic acid, respectively. Several compositions have been tested with different types of the metal M aliovalently (co)substituted for Ti, K<inf>0.8</inf>[M<inf>y</inf>Ti<inf>2−y</inf>]O<inf>4</inf> (M = Li, Mg, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cu/Ni and Cu/Zn). The low CO<inf>2</inf> desorption peak temperature (70–100 °C) suggests that the external O<inf>L</inf> sites are weakly basic similar to TiO<inf>2</inf>. However, the internal O<inf>L</inf> sites are sufficiently basic to deprotonate palmitic acid, forming the intercalated potassium palmitate at the interlayer spaces. The latter serves as a two-dimensional (2D) molecular reactor for the production of liquid hydrocarbon fuels via deoxygenation under atmospheric N<inf>2</inf>. A relationship has been observed between the yield of the liquid products vs the partial charge of the lattice oxygen (δ<inf>O</inf>). Since the deoxygenation pathway is highly dependent on the metal substitution, the redox-active sites might also play some roles. The co-substituted K<inf>0.8</inf>[Cu<inf>0.2</inf>Ni<inf>0.2</inf>]Ti<inf>1.6</inf>O<inf>4</inf> produced ~68.0% yield of the liquid products, with ~ 51% saturated and ~ 15% unsaturated C<inf>15</inf> hydrocarbons at 350 °C.
