Enhanced CO2 electroreduction efficiency through secondary coordination effects on a pincer iridium catalyst.
An iridium(III) trihydride complex supported by a pincer ligand with a hydrogen bond donor in the secondary coordination sphere promotes the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 to formate in water/acetonitrile with excellent Faradaic efficiency and low overpotential. Preliminary mechanistic experiments indicate formate formation is facile while product release is a kinetically difficult step.
متن کاملA robust and efficient cobalt molecular catalyst for CO2 reduction.
Visible-light driven CO2 reduction is considered to be a sustainable energy source. However, earth-abundant molecular catalysts with high efficiency and robustness towards solar-driven CO2 reduction are limited. Herein, we report a cobalt complex supported by a tetradentate tripodal ligand, which demonstrates catalytic solar-driven CO2 reduction with TON(CO) > 900 over 70 h in the presence of a...
متن کاملElectroreduction of CO2 into Ethanol over an Active Catalyst: Copper Supported on Titania
A simple, inexpensive, and novel method was used to prepare electrocatalysts from Cu supported on titanium dioxide (Cu/TiO2). XRD, SEM, and TEM characterizations confirmed different loadings of Cu nanoparticles (NPs) on TiO2. Cyclic voltammetry tests indicated that Cu/TiO2 exhibited lower overpotential for CO2 reduction than that of Cu NPs. Moreover, 40 wt % Cu/TiO2 exhibited the highest farada...
متن کاملBiofunctionalized conductive polymers enable efficient CO2 electroreduction
Selective electrocatalysts are urgently needed for carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction to replace fossil fuels with renewable fuels, thereby closing the carbon cycle. To date, noble metals have achieved the best performance in energy yield and faradaic efficiency and have recently reached impressive electrical-to-chemical power conversion efficiencies. However, the scarcity of precious metals makes ...
متن کاملPhotoswitching a molecular catalyst to regulate CO2 hydrogenation.
Inspired by nature's ability to regulate catalysis using physiological stimuli, azobenzene was incorporated into Rh(bis)diphosphine CO2 hydrogenation catalysts to photoinitiate structural changes to modulate the resulting catalytic activity. The rhodium bound diphosphine ligands (P(Ph2)-CH2-N(R)-CH2-P(Ph2)) contain the terminal amine of a non-natural amino acid, with the R-group being either β-...
