Proton-coupled electron transfer.
Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) is an important mechanism for charge transfer in a wide variety of systems including biology- and materials-oriented venues. We review several areas where the transfer of an electron and proton is tightly coupled and discuss model systems that can provide an experimental basis for a test of PCET theory. In a PCET reaction, the electron and proton may tran...
متن کاملFacet-dependent solar ammonia synthesis of BiOCl nanosheets via a proton-assisted electron transfer pathway.
Under the pressure of a fossil fuels shortage and global climate change, solar ammonia synthesis and the need to develop N2 fixation under mild conditions is becoming more urgent need; however, their intrinsic mechanisms still remain unclear. Herein, we demonstrate that the kinetic inertia of N2 can be overcome using oxygen vacancies (OVs) of BiOCl as the catalytic centers to create lower energ...
متن کاملKinetics of proton-coupled electron-transfer reactions
The kinetics of proton-coupled electron-transfer (pcet) reactions are reported for Mn4O4(O2PPh2)6, 1, and [Mn4O4(O2PPh2)6] , 1 , with phenothiazine (pzH). Both pcet reactions form 1H, by H transfer to 1 and by hydride transfer to 1 . Surprisingly, the rate constants differ by only 25% despite large differences in the formal charges and driving force. The driving force is proportional to the dif...
متن کاملTheoretical study of electron, proton, and proton-coupled electron transfer in iron bi-imidazoline complexes.
A comparative theoretical investigation of single electron transfer (ET), single proton transfer (PT), and proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactions in iron bi-imidazoline complexes is presented. These calculations are motivated by experimental studies showing that the rates of ET and PCET are similar and are both slower than the rate of PT for these systems (Roth, J. P.; Lovel, S.; May...
متن کاملA mononuclear ruthenium complex showing multiple proton-coupled electron transfer toward multi-electron transfer reactions.
Two new ruthenium(II) complexes bearing dissociable protons, [Ru(trpy)(H(2)bim)Cl]PF(6) (1) and [Ru(trpy)(H(2)bim)(OH(2))](PF(6))(2) (2) (H(2)bim = 2,2'-biimidazole and trpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine), were synthesized and characterized, where the H(2)bim and M-OH(2) moieties are expected to serve as proton-dissociation sites. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses revealed that the H(2)bim ...
