Molecular water-oxidation catalysts for photoelectrochemical cells.
Photoelectrochemical cells that efficiently split water into oxygen and hydrogen, "the fuel of the future", need to combine robust water oxidation catalysts at the anode (2H(2)O --> O(2) + 4H(+) + 4e(-)) with hydrogen reduction catalysts at the cathode (2H(+) + 2e(-)--> H(2)). Both sets of catalysts will, ideally, operate at low overpotentials and employ light-driven or light-assisted processes...
متن کاملHighly efficient and robust molecular ruthenium catalysts for water oxidation.
Water oxidation catalysts are essential components of light-driven water splitting systems, which could convert water to H(2) driven by solar radiation (H(2)O + hν → 1/2O(2) + H(2)). The oxidation of water (H(2)O → 1/2O(2) + 2H(+) + 2e(-)) provides protons and electrons for the production of dihydrogen (2H(+) + 2e(-) → H(2)), a clean-burning and high-capacity energy carrier. One of the obstacle...
متن کاملModeling Ru-based Molecular Catalysts for Water Oxidation
The discovery of solar-driven water splitting catalysts with high activity and stability has been instrumental for storing solar energy to chemical fuels that can satisfy the increasing demand of sustainable energy. Ru-based catalysts continue to serve as the springboard for the development of solar energy conversion into chemical fuels. It is clear that the functionality of these catalysts is ...
متن کاملCobalt selenium oxohalides: catalysts for water oxidation.
Two new oxohalides Co4Se3O9Cl2 and Co3Se4O10Cl2 have been synthesized by solid state reactions. They crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pnma and the monoclinic space group C2/m respectively. The crystal structure of the two compounds are made up of similar building blocks; Co4Se3O9Cl2 is made up of [CoO4Cl2], [CoO5Cl] and [SeO3] polyhedra and Co3Se4O10Cl2 is made up of [CoO4Cl2] and [S...
متن کاملUsing reduced catalysts for oxidation reactions: mechanistic studies of the "Periana-Catalytica" system for CH4 oxidation.
Designing oxidation catalysts based on CH activation with reduced, low oxidation state species is a seeming dilemma given the proclivity for catalyst deactivation by overoxidation. This dilemma has been recognized in the Shilov system where reduced Pt(II) is used to catalyze methane functionalization. Thus, it is generally accepted that key to replacing Pt(IV) in that system with more practical...
