چکیده

The pH-dependent electrochemical behavior for a Co(II) complex, [Co(Py5)(OH(2))](ClO(4))(2) (1; Py5 = 2,6-(bis(bis-2-pyridyl)methoxymethane)pyridine), indicates consecutive (proton-coupled) oxidation steps furnish a Co(IV) species that catalyzes the oxidation of water in basic media.

Electrocatalytic water oxidation by a molecular cobalt complex through a high valent cobalt oxo intermediate.

Biuret-modified tetraamidomacrocyclic cobalt complex [CoIII-bTAML]- is shown to catalyze electrochemical water oxidation at basic pH leading to the formation of O2. Electrochemical and spectroscopic studies indicate a high valent cobalt oxo intermediate isoelectronic to CoV(O) as the active oxidant. The kinetic isotope effect of 8.63 indicates an atom proton transfer mechanism.

Catalytic oxidation of nitric oxide and nitrite mediated by water-soluble high-valent iron porphyrins at an ITO electrode

A stepwise catalytic oxidation for nitric oxide and nitrite by water-soluble iron(III) meso-tetrakis(N -methylpyridinium-4yl)porphyrin (Fe(4-TMPyP)) was first revealed by using an ITO electrode. Electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical studies characterized the formation of oxoiron(IV) porphyrin and oxoiron(IV) porphyrin p-cation radical in the oxidation of Fe(4TMPyP). O@Fe(4-TMPyP) showed se...

Catalytic Methane Monofunctionalization by an Electrogenerated High-Valent Pd Intermediate

Electrophilic high-valent metal ions are potent intermediates for the catalytic functionalization of methane, but in many cases, their high redox potentials make these intermediates difficult or impossible to access using mild stoichiometric oxidants derived from O2. Herein, we establish electrochemical oxidation as a versatile new strategy for accessing high-valent methane monofunctionalizatio...

Electrochemistry of 2 , 2 ' - Bipyridine Complexes of Cobalt in the Presence of Acrylonitrile

The previously claimed (1) catalysis of the electroreduction of acrylonitrile by means of a complex of Co(l) and 2,2'-bipyridine is shown to be erroneous. The "catalytic currents" result instead from the two-electron reduction of a mixed complex of Co (I) acrylonitrile and 2,2' -bipyridine. The equilibrium and forward rate constants for the formation of the mixed complex have been estimated and...
