Download or read book A Cobalt Complex of Bis Methylthioether Pyridine Catalyst for Hydrogen Evolution from Water written by chunli wang and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new cobalt-based catalyst, [(btep)CoBr 2 ] is produced by the reaction of CoBr 2 and bis(methylthioether)pyridine (btep), and its structure has been determined by X-ray crystallography. Our experiments suggest that this cobalt complex can used as a molecular catalyst for electrochemical and photochemical driven hydrogen evolution. As an electrocatalyst, this cobalt complex can provide 591.9 moles of hydrogen per mole of catalyst per hour (mol H 2 /mol catalyst/h) from a neutral water under an overpotential (OP) of 837.6 mV. As a co-catalyst, it was mixed with CdS nanorods (CdS NRs) as a photosensitizer, and ascorbic acid (H 2 A) as a sacrificial electron donor, and [(btep)CoBr 2 ] can provide 9326.4 mol H 2 per mole of catalyst during 40 h irradiation. The highest apparent quantum yield (AQY) is ~25.5%. The catalytic mechanism for H 2 production is investigated by several measurements and analysis.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El subministrament d'energia sostenible és un desafiament crític que enfronta la humanitat. La dependència dels combustibles fòssils ha despertat l'interès en el desenvolupament de fonts d'energia lliures de carboni, entre les quals el dihidrogen que té una alta densitat d'energia seria un dels més prometedors sempre que es generi a partir d'alternatives renovables. En aquest context, dissociar l'aigua per produir hidrogen com a combustible és de gran interès i, per tant, s'estan desenvolupant una gran quantitat de catalitzadors per accelerar la velocitat d'aquesta reacció, preferiblement obtinguts a partir de metalls de transició abundants. Amb l'objectiu d'optimitzar l'economia de l'àtom de metall i facilitar l'anàlisi mecanístic, els complexos moleculars són una bona opció com a catalitzadors homogenis. En aquest tipus de compostos, els centres metal·lics que generalment es requereixen poden accedir a múltiples estats d'oxidació, de vegades a través d'intermedis de tipus metall-hidrur. No obstant això, el disseny de catalitzadors per a la reacció d'evolució de l'hidrogen (HER) inclou també una família de complexos amb lligands no innocents que poden operar com un reservori d'electrons i / o un lloc de protonació. El primer capítol d'aquesta tesi doctoral introdueix la necessitat i les tècniques per a la producció d'hidrogen per recolzar la demanda d'energia, incloent els electrocatalitzadors per HER basats en els metalls no nobles, níquel i cobalt. El segon capítol descriu els objectius d'aquesta Tesi, és a dir, la síntesi i caracterització dels lligands basats en diiminpiridina (PDI), actius en redox, juntament amb els complexos de níquel i cobalt obtingut a partir d'aquests lligands. Es presenten també com a objectius la seva avaluació electrocatalítica en HER així com la descripció dels processos des del punt de vista mecanístic. El tercer capítol presenta la preparació d'un conjunt de lligands PDI pentadentats, juntament amb la síntesi i caracterització completa de complexos de Ni(II) de hexacoordinats [Ni(Ph2PPrPDI)(Cl)](Cl) (1(Cl)) i [Ni(Ph2PPrPDI)(p)Cl)(Cl)](Cl) (2(Cl)). La ubicació dels electrons després de la reducció electroquímica d'1(Cl) es va examinar mitjançant càlculs de la teoria del funcional de la densitat (DFT) juntament amb la ressonància paramagnètica electrònica (EPR), la qual cosa va mostrar que la primera reducció d'un electró es produeix en el metall i la segona en el lligand. Es van estudiar també les propietats redox i catalítiques d'ambdós complexos. D'una banda, es va observar un potencial redox més positiu i, per tant, un sobrepotencial més baix per a 2(Cl), el que indica que la presència del substituent electroatraient Cl al lligand PDI millora l'activitat electrocatalítica. D'altra banda, 1(Cl) és més actiu per al HER en termes de TOF i constant de velocitat. Els estudis d'estabilitat a curt termini per a 1(Cl) i 2(Cl) en condicions de HER per CV indiquen que la catàlisi és homogènia sense descomposició, mentre que l'estabilitat a llarg termini analitzada per electròlisi potencial controlada mostra la generació d'una nova espècie transitòria que pot desencadenar la reacció d'oxidació d'hidrogen i al seu torn reduir el sobrepotencial per a la HER. El quart capítol s'enfoca en la síntesi i caracterització de complexos de Co coordinats de cinc amb els lligands aplicats en el tercer capítol ([CoI(Ph2PPrPDI](BF4), 3(BF4) i [CoI(Ph2PPrPDI(p)Cl](BF4), 4(BF4)). Les dades de l'electroquímica mostren que aquests complexos són actius per a la HER en medi orgànic, passant després de la reacció amb protons per espècies d'hidrur de Co(III) que es van identificar mitjançant espectroscòpia UV-vis i RMN. Sobre la base de l'espectroscòpia RMN, el compost de Co(I) inicial es va recuperar després d'un cicle de reacció catalític, el que demostra un mecanisme homolític per HER. Finalment, el cinquè capítol enumera les conclusions més rellevants extretes del treball realitzat.

Download or read book Supported Metal Complexes written by F.R. Hartley and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1985-11-30 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is now IS years since the first patents in polymer supported metal complex catalysts were taken out. In the early days ion-exchange resins were used to support ionic metal complexes. Soon covalent links were developed, and after an initially slow start there was a period of explosive growth in the mid to late 1970s during which virtually every homogeneous metal complex catalyst ever reported was also studied bound to a support. Both polymers and inorganic oxides were studied as supports, although the great preponderance of workers studied polymeric supports, and of these polystyrene was by far the commonest used. This period served to show that by very careful design polymer-supported metal complex catalysts could have specific advantages over homogeneous metal complex catalysts. However the subject was a complicated one. Merely immobilising a successful metal complex catalyst to a functionalised support rarely yielded other than an inferior version of the catalyst. Amongst the many discouraging results of the 1970s, there were more than enough results that were sufficiently encouraging to demonstrate that, by careful design, supported metal complex catalysts could be prepared in which both the metal complex and the support combined together to produce an active catalyst which, due to the combination of support and complex, had advantages of activity, selectivity and specificity not found in homogeneous catalysts. Thus a new generation of catalysts was being developed.
