Molecular mechanisms of cobalt-catalyzed hydrogen evolution.
Several cobalt complexes catalyze the evolution of hydrogen from acidic solutions, both homogeneously and at electrodes. The detailed molecular mechanisms of these transformations remain unresolved, largely owing to the fact that key reactive intermediates have eluded detection. One method of stabilizing reactive intermediates involves minimizing the overall reaction free-energy change. Here, w...
متن کاملElectrocatalytic hydrogen evolution in acidic water with molecular cobalt tetraazamacrocycles.
A series of water-soluble molecular cobalt complexes of tetraazamacrocyclic ligands are reported for the electrocatalytic production of H(2) from pH 2.2 aqueous solutions. The comparative data reported for this family of complexes shed light on their relative efficiencies for hydrogen evolution in water. Rotating disk electrode voltammetry data are presented for each of the complexes discussed,...
متن کاملHydrogen evolution catalyzed by cobaloximes.
Natural photosynthesis uses sunlight to drive the conversion of energy-poor molecules (H(2)O, CO(2)) to energy-rich ones (O(2), (CH(2)O)(n)). Scientists are working hard to develop efficient artificial photosynthetic systems toward the "Holy Grail" of solar-driven water splitting. High on the list of challenges is the discovery of molecules that efficiently catalyze the reduction of protons to ...

متن کاملThe cobalt corrole catalyzed hydrogen evolution reaction: surprising electronic effects and characterization of key reaction intermediates.
A surprising effect of halide substituents on reduction potentials and catalytic activity of halogenated cobalt corroles has been deduced by experimental and computational methods; the proton-activating cobalt(I) and the cobalt(II) corrole that is formed in the step during which hydrogen is formed are characterized by NMR spectroscopy.
