چکیده

A multimetallic ruthenium(II) dendrimer is used for the first time to photosensitize dioxygen production from water by IrO2 nanoparticles; the system is more efficient than an analogous system based on the more commonly used [Ru(bpy)3]2+-type photosensitizers, in particular for the ability of the dendrimer to take advantage of the red portion of the solar spectrum.

Photoinduced Electron Transfer of PAMAM Dendrimer-Zinc(II) Porphyrin Associates at Polarized Liquid|Liquid Interfaces.

The heterogeneous photoinduced electron-transfer reaction of the ion associates between NH2-terminated polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrinato zinc(II) (ZnTPPS(4-)) was studied at the polarized water|1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) interface. The positive photocurrent arising from the photoreduction of ZnTPPS(4-) by a lipophilic quencher, decamethylferr...

Visible photoelectrochemical water splitting into H2 and O2 in a dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cell.

A hybrid strategy for solar water splitting is exploited here based on a dye-sensitized photoelectrosynthesis cell (DSPEC) with a mesoporous SnO2/TiO2 core/shell nanostructured electrode derivatized with a surface-bound Ru(II) polypyridyl-based chromophore-catalyst assembly. The assembly, [(4,4'-(PO3H2)2bpy)2Ru(4-Mebpy-4'-bimpy)Ru(tpy)(OH2)](4+) ([Ru(a) (II)-Ru(b) (II)-OH2](4+), combines both a...

Enabling light-driven water oxidation via a low-energy RuIV=O intermediate.

The discovery of catalysts capable of driving water oxidation at relatively low overpotential is a key challenge for efficient photoinduced water oxidation. The mononuclear Ru(II) polypyridyl complex (1) [Ru(NPM)(H2O)(pic)2](2+) (NPM = 4-tert-butyl-2,6-di-(1',8'-naphthyrid-2'-yl)-pyridine, pic = 4-picoline) has been examined as a catalyst for visible-light-driven water oxidation in a three-comp...

Water oxidation by manganese oxides formed from tetranuclear precursor complexes: the influence of phosphate on structure and activity.

Two types of manganese oxides have been prepared by hydrolysis of tetranuclear Mn(iii) complexes in the presence or absence of phosphate ions. The oxides have been characterized structurally using X-ray absorption spectroscopy and functionally by O2 evolution measurements. The structures of the oxides prepared in the absence of phosphate are dominated by di-μ-oxo bridged manganese ions that for...

Molecular recognition of star-burst tetranuclear Ru(III) complexes on a chirally modified clay surface.

Star-burst tetranuclear Ru(iii) complexes, Delta-(or Lambda-)[{Delta-(or Lambda-)-Ru(iii)(acac)(2)(taet)}(3)Ru(iii)] (acac = acetylacetonato; taet = tetraacetylethanato), were prepared and resolved into eight enantiomers on a column packed with an ion-exchange adduct of a clay and Delta-[Ru(ii)(phen)(3)](2+) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline), demonstrating that the dual chiralities of the central an...
