Pt(II)-Catalyzed photosynthesis for H2 evolution cycling between singly and triply reduced species.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A PtCl2(bpy) derivative tethered to two viologen (MV(2+)) moieties drives photochemical H2 evolution via forming a three-electron-reduced species possessing a bpy(-)˙-based (or MV(0)-based) reducing equivalent. Such species can only form after one electron reduction of both the MV(2+) sites because of rapid intramolecular electron transfer from bpy(-)˙ to MV(2+).

Singly versus Doubly Reduced Nickel Porphyrins for Proton Reduction: Experimental and Theoretical Evidence for a Homolytic Hydrogen‐Evolution Reaction
A nickel(II) porphyrin Ni-P (P=porphyrin) bearing four meso-C6 F5 groups to improve solubility and activity was used to explore different hydrogen-evolution-reaction (HER) mechanisms. Doubly reduced Ni-P ([Ni-P](2-) ) was involved in H2 production from acetic acid, whereas a singly reduced species ([Ni-P](-) ) initiated HER with stronger trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). High activity and stability o...
متن کاملLocalization/delocalization of charges in bay-linked perylene bisimides.
The copper-mediated Ullmann coupling of 1,7-dibromoperylene bisimides afforded structurally perfect singly-linked perylene bisimide (PBI) arrays, whilst the homo-coupling of 1,12-dibromoperylene bisimides gave doubly-linked and triply-linked diperylene bisimides. The interactions of three bay-linked diperylene bisimides that differed in their linkage (singly, doubly, and triply) were investigat...
متن کاملA physiological perspective on the origin and evolution of photosynthesis.
The origin and early evolution of photosynthesis are reviewed from an ecophysiological perspective. Earth's first ecosystems were chemotrophic, fueled by geological H2 at hydrothermal vents and, required flavin-based electron bifurcation to reduce ferredoxin for CO2 fixation. Chlorophyll-based phototrophy (chlorophototrophy) allowed autotrophs to generate reduced ferredoxin without electron bif...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis in Hydrogen-Dominated Atmospheres
The diversity of extrasolar planets discovered in the last decade shows that we should not be constrained to look for life in environments similar to early or present-day Earth. Super-Earth exoplanets are being discovered with increasing frequency, and some will be able to retain a stable, hydrogen-dominated atmosphere. We explore the possibilities for photosynthesis on a rocky planet with a th...
متن کاملImmobilizing CdS quantum dots and dendritic Pt nanocrystals on thiolated graphene nanosheets toward highly efficient photocatalytic H2 evolution.
We report the development of a highly efficient photocatalytic system by immobilizing high-quality CdS quantum dots and dendritic Pt nanocrystals on thiol-functionalized graphene substrates. We have demonstrated that the use of QDs with compact sizes leads to a dramatically enhanced performance in comparison with their bulk counterparts. Our design allows for systematic examination of the impac...
