A Dinuclear Ruthenium-Based Water Oxidation Catalyst: Use of Non-Innocent Ligand Frameworks for Promoting Multi-Electron Reactions
Insight into how H2 O is oxidized to O2 is envisioned to facilitate the rational design of artificial water oxidation catalysts, which is a vital component in solar-to-fuel conversion schemes. Herein, we report on the mechanistic features associated with a dinuclear Ru-based water oxidation catalyst. The catalytic action of the designed Ru complex was studied by the combined use of high-resolut...
متن کاملHighly efficient and robust molecular water oxidation catalysts based on ruthenium complexes.
Two monomeric ruthenium molecular catalysts for water oxidation have been prepared, and both of them show high activities in pH 1.0 aqueous solutions, with an initial rate of over 1000 turnover s(-1) by complex 1, and a turnover number of more than 100,000 by complex 2.
متن کاملMechanism of Water Oxidation Catalyzed by a Dinuclear Ruthenium Complex Bridged by Anthraquinone
We synthesized 1,8-bis(2,2′:6′,2”-terpyrid-4′-yl)anthraquinone (btpyaq) as a new dimerizing ligand and determined its single crystal structure by X-ray analysis. The dinuclear Ruthenium complex [Ru2(μ-Cl)(bpy)2(btpyaq)](BF4)3 ([3](BF4)3, bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine) was used as a catalyst for water oxidation to oxygen with (NH4)2[Ce(NO3)6] as the oxidant (turnover numbers = 248). The initial reaction...
متن کاملPhotophysical and redox properties of dinuclear Ru and Os polypyridyl complexes with incorporated photostable spiropyran bridge.
Aimed at creating a true photoswitchable energy transfer system, four dinuclear complexes containing ruthenium(II) and osmium(II) metal centers bridged by spiropyran-type linkers were designed and investigated. The bridge in its closed spiropyran form was shown to be a good insulator for energy transfer between the Ru-bpy donor and the Os-bpy acceptor (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine). On the basis of pr...
متن کاملReactivity of a nitrosyl ligand on dinuclear ruthenium hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borato complexes toward a NO molecule.
A cationic mononitrosyl dinuclear ruthenium complex was prepared by removing one NO ligand of a dicationic dinitrosyl ruthenium complex using NaN3. Reduction and oxidation reactions of the mononitrosyl complex led to the isolation of a neutral nitrosyl-bridged complex and a dicationic mononitrosyl complex, respectively, as expected from the cyclic voltammogram. According to the electron count, ...
