چکیده

We report a series of complexes synthesized from the chemical reduction of the fac-tricarbonyl complex Re(bpy)(CO)(3)Cl. Synthesis and characterization of [Re(bpy)(CO)(3)](2), [Re(bpy)(CO)(3)](2)(-), and Re(bpy)(CO)(3)(-) are presented. The Re(bpy)(CO)(3)(-) anion has long been postulated as the active species that reacts with carbon dioxide in the electrochemical reduction of CO(2).

Electrochemical Reduction of CO2 Catalyzed by Re(pyridine-oxazoline)(CO)3Cl Complexes.

A series of rhenium tricarbonyl complexes coordinated by asymmetric diimine ligands containing a pyridine moiety bound to an oxazoline ring were synthesized, structurally and electrochemically characterized, and screened for CO2 reduction ability. The reported complexes are of the type Re(N-N)(CO)3Cl, with N-N = 2-(pyridin-2-yl)-4,5-dihydrooxazole (1), 5-methyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)-4,5-dihydrooxazo...

Architecture of supramolecular metal complexes for photocatalytic CO2 reduction: ruthenium-rhenium bi- and tetranuclear complexes.

We study the electrochemical, spectroscopic, and photocatalytic properties of a series of Ru(II)-Re(I) binuclear complexes linked by bridging ligands 1,3-bis(4'-methyl-[2,2']bipyridinyl-4-yl)propan-2-ol (bpyC3bpy) and 4-methyl-4'-[1,10]phenanthroline-[5,6-d]imidazol-2-yl)bipyridine (mfibpy) and a tetranuclear complex in which three [Re(CO)3Cl] moieties are coordinated to the central Ru using th...

Carbon monoxide release catalysed by electron transfer: electrochemical and spectroscopic investigations of [Re(bpy-R)(CO)4](OTf) complexes relevant to CO2 reduction.

[Re(bpy-tBu)(CO)4](OTf) (bpy-tBu = 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine, OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate) (1) and [Re(bpy)(CO)4](OTf) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) (2) were synthesized and studied as proposed intermediates in the electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) by Re(bpy-R)(CO)3X. Both compounds demonstrated increased current responses in cyclic voltammograms under CO2. Complex 1 was...

Photochemical reduction of CO2 with ascorbate in aqueous solution using vesicles acting as photocatalysts.

We report a novel system of visible-light-driven CO2 reduction to CO in an aqueous solution, in which DPPC vesicles dispersed in the solution act as a photocatalyst using ascorbate (HAsc(-)) as an electron source. In the vesicles metal complexes [Ru(dtb)(bpy)2](2+) and Re(dtb)(CO)3Cl (dtb = 4,4'-ditridecyl-2,2'-bipyridyl) are incorporated, which act as a photosensitizer and a catalyst for CO2 r...

Electrocatalytic CO2 reduction with a membrane supported manganese catalyst in aqueous solution.

[Mn(bpy)(CO)3Br] cast in a Nafion membrane is an active heterogeneous electrocatalyst with good selectivity for CO2 reduction to CO in neutral aqueous electrolyte. Addition of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) leads to a ∼10 fold current enhancement and stable CO : H2 yields (1 : 2) at -1.4 V vs. Ag/AgCl at pH 7.
