Download or read book Cobalt Salen Complexes for Catalytic Hydrogen Production written by Matthew J. Van Dongen and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several cobalt salen complexes were synthesized. Early solubility issues were solved by adding cyclohexyl and phenyl substituents to the diamine backbone of the ligand. Crystals were obtained for complexes 18, 20, and 21. These complexes represent a series of compounds differing only in number of electron withdrawing substituents. Cyclic voltammetry was performed on 18, 20, and 21 to probe the catalytic activity of each compound. Initial CVs were taken in acetonitrile solutions. Subsequent CVs were taken with additions of TFA to prove the catalytic activity of each complex. It was found that 21, containing the most electron withdrawing substituents, was the most active and had the most positive redox couple followed by 20. 18 exhibited a very negative redox couple at -1.37 V and showed no catalytic activity.

Download or read book Investigation of New Ligand Architechtures Towards Proton and Water Reduction Catalysis by Cobalt Complexes written by Debashis Basu and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We designed several redox-active ligand architectures to optimize and understand the redox, electronic, and catalytic properties of their respective cobalt complexes. Ligand design was varied from pentadentate donor phenolate to tetradentate acceptor oxime in order to reduce the overpotential of hydrogen generation in organic solvents. We altered the substitution, axial ligands and axial ligand substitutions to vary electronic and catalytic properties for such tetra- or pentadentate ligand systems. Knowledge of the nature of the active species for catalysis enabled us to design the pentadentate oxime ligand which exhibited rich reaction chemistry along with suitable catalytic property in organic solvent. Presence of several polar groups like -OH and -NH and the absence of any aromatic rings make this complex water soluble which is an added advantage. Additionally, this complex exhibited excellent catalytic properties in water with low onset overpotential and high turnover number. We developed similar redox-active-acceptor pentadentate phenylene-bridged pyridine-rich ligand which provided extremely versatile reaction chemistry after complexation with cobalt. These complexes displayed catalytic properties at moderate to low-overpotential in acetonitrile with good turnover numbers. Furthermore, the water solubility and tunability of such complexes make them suitable candidates for water reduction. Therefore, water reduction was carried out with these complexes showing low onset overpotentials and high turnover numbers. Finally, we incorporated [Ru(bpy)2]2+-based photosensitized with one of the catalytic module (cobalt tetradentate oxime) to generate heterobimetallic [RuIICoIII] species which displayed quenching of CoIII upon electron transfer from RuII excited state.

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.

Download or read book Hydrogen Production from Bioethanol Using Cobalt Hydrotalcites written by Raúl Uziel Espinal Bustos and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrogen constitutes a promising alternative to manage our energy supply more efficiently. Hydrogen can be stored and used in fuel cells to produce electricity, where it combines with the oxygen present in the air and generates solely water as by-product. Of the different methods available to produce hydrogen, the catalytic reaction of ethanol and water (reforming) is one of the most advantageous alternatives, since ethanol can be produced easily from biomass (bioethanol), is liquid and simple to manipulate. This doctoral thesis studies the behavior of a family of cobalt catalysts to produce hydrogen from ethanol and water; to be more precise, catalysts based on cobalt hydrotalcites. The same process could be triggered by other types of catalyst, but many of them are far more expensive due to the noble metals they contain, and others - those based on nickel and cobalt - desactivate after a short amount of time because their surface accumulate carbon. This thesis demonstrates that with the help of a precise method of preparation, one can create inexpensive catalysts from cobalt hydrotalcites, which remain quite stable under realistic operating conditions. Chapter 1 introduces the reader to the key aspects of this doctoral thesis. It explains the objectives pursued and gives an overview of the state of art and the groundwork on which the experimental work is based. Besides explaining the general characteristics of the catalysts and the reactions that will be studied, chapter 1 also informs about cordierite monoliths: what exactly are they and why are they used in this work to physically stabilize the catalysts and catalytic membrane reactors. In this way, the aim of this doctoral thesis is to acquire new scientific knowledge on the one hand and on the other, to apply this knowledge in the development of devices that can be applied in practice. The four chapters following thereafter form a compound of papers that have been published in notable international journals (three of them) and one article in process of revision. Chapter 2 describes the preparation of a family of cobalt hydrotalcites with different ratios of cobalt, magnesia and aluminum, and how these cobalt hydrotalcites behave in the ethanol steam reforming reaction to produce hydrogen. Starting from a detailed characterization using different techniques like TEM, XRD, IR, TGA, In situ XPS, magnetism, etc., the different chemical elements present are identified, and their structure in the catalysts before, during, and after reaction is analyzed. It becomes evident that the best formula (with the greatest yield of hydrogen and the least amount of coke residual) is a hydrotalcite with a relation of Co:Mg:Al=1:2:1. It is concluded that during the reaction, the hydrotalcite-based catalyst transforms itself to a mix of cobalt spinel, strongly interacting with MgO on a nanometric scale. Nevertheless, if the reaction is repeated using only cobalt spinel (synthesized specifically for this purpose), the outcome is a smaller amount of hydrogen. This shows that cobalt hydrotalcite used as a catalyst precursor plays a crucial part in the final structure of the catalyst. Hydrotalcite Co:Mg:Al=1:2:1 doped with Pt and Rh is studied in chapter 3. For this, two families of catalysts with different ratios of Pt and Rh were prepared. They were analyzed under the same conditions as explained in chapter 2 and were tested in the reaction. The objective of doping the cobalt hydrotalcite with noble metals was to facilitate the reaction of cobalt, given the fact that metallic cobalt is the active element in ethanol steam reforming. Besides this key function of metallic cobalt, chapter 2 also reveals, however, that metallic cobalt speeds up the catalyst deactivation by causing severe coke accumulation. Hydrotalcite Co:Mg:Al=1:2:1 doped with Pt and Rh is studied in chapter 3. For this, two families of catalysts with different ratios of Pt and Rh were prepared.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The activation of dioxygen by metal ions has both synthetic potential and biological relevance. Dioxygen is the cleanest oxidant for use in emission-free technologies to minimize pollution of the environment. The book gives a survey of those catalyst systems based on metal complexes which have been discovered and studied in the last decade. They activate molecular oxygen and effect the oxidation of various organic compounds under mild conditions. Much of the recent progress is due to a search for biomimetic catalysts that would duplicate the action of metalloenzymes. Mechanistic aspects are emphasized throughout the book. An introductonary chapter reviews the chemistry of transition metal dioxygen complexes, which are usually the active intermediates in the catalytic reactions discussed. Separate chapters are devoted to oxidation of saturated, unsaturated and aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols, catechols, oxo-compounds, phosphorus, sulfur and nitrogen compounds.
