Hydrogen Evolution Reaction In article number 2300961, Dominik Eder and co-workers test a visible light responsive titanium-based metal-organic framework (MOF) comprised of 2D secondary building units for the hydrogen evolution reaction. It ranks amongst highest performing MOFs this challenging conversion. Upon photoexcitation, unique structure enables efficient charge separation extraction, di...

Enzymes can activate otherwise unreactive substrates by using residues precisely located in the active sites. We herein report on a Ga porphyrin which bears second-sphere sulfonic group (named as 1) and its high efficiency for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Complex 1 achieve large TOF value of 1.3 × 105 s−1 at low 295-mV overpotential with weak acetic acid (HOAc) proton sou...

Semiconductor catalysts play a potential role for efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen production. In this work, copper bismuth oxide (CuBi2O4) nanostructures were synthesized via the coprecipitation method using two different Cu precursors: one is Cu(NO3)3·9H2O and other CuCl2. When Cu(NO3)3·9H2O, sample showed an interconnected aggregated irregular spherical CuBi2O4 nanoparticle structure. On ...

Abstract Hydrogen for clean energy resources has attracted more and attention, water splitting hydrogen production also been widely studied. Electrocatalysis is considered the most efficient method production. In this work, we prepared a metal-free porous carbon nanowires catalyst with an electrostatic spinning using granular poly styrol as precursor zinc chloride activating agent forming struc...
