Electrocatalytic reduction of low concentration CO2.

ABSTRACT: Utilization of low concentration CO2 contained in the exhaust gases from various industries and thermal power stations without the need for energy-consuming concentration processes should be an important technology for solving global warming and the shortage of fossil resources. Here we report the direct electrocatalytic reduction of low concentration CO2 by a Re(i)-complex catalyst that possesses CO2-capturing ability in the presence of triethanolamine. The reaction rate and faradaic efficiency of CO2 reduction were almost the same when using Ar gas containing 10% CO2 or when using pure CO2 gas, and the selectivity of CO formation was very high (98% at 10% CO2). At a concentration of 1% CO2, the Re(i) complex still behaved as a good electrocatalyst; 94% selectivity of CO formation and 85% faradaic efficiency were achieved, and the rate of CO formation was 67% compared to that when using pure CO2 gas. The electrocatalysis was due to the efficient insertion of CO2 into the Re(i)-O bond in fac-[Re(dmb)(CO)3{OC2H4N(C2H4OH)2}] (dmb = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine).

Electrocatalytic Reduction of CO2 in Water by a Palladium-Containing Metallopolymer.

Project description:The palladium-salen complex was immobilized by electropolymerization onto a Pt disc electrode and applied as an electrocatalyst for the reduction of CO2 in an aqueous solution. Linear sweep voltammetry measurements and rotating disk experiments were carried out to study the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. The onset overpotential for carbon dioxide reduction was approximately -0.22 V vs. NHE on the poly-Pd(salen) modified electrode. In addition, by combining the electrochemical study with a kinetic study, the rate-determining step of the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) was found to be the radial reduction of carbon dioxide to the CO adsorbed on the metal.

Studies of cobalt-mediated electrocatalytic CO2 reduction using a redox-active ligand.

Project description:The cobalt complex [Co(III)N4H(Br)2](+) (N4H = 2,12-dimethyl-3,7,11,17-tetraazabicyclo-[11.3.1]-heptadeca-1(7),2,11,13,15-pentaene) was used for electrocatalytic CO2 reduction in wet MeCN with a glassy carbon working electrode. When water was employed as the proton source (10 M in MeCN), CO was produced (fCO= 45% ± 6.4) near the Co(I/0) redox couple for [Co(III)N4H(Br)2](+) (E1/2 = -1.88 V FeCp2(+/0)) with simultaneous H2 evolution (fH2= 30% ± 7.8). Moreover, we successfully demonstrated that the catalytically active species is homogeneous through the use of control experiments and XPS studies of the working glassy-carbon electrodes. As determined by cyclic voltammetry, CO2 catalysis occurred near the formal Co(I/0)redox couple, and attempts were made to isolate the triply reduced compound ("[Co(0)N4H]"). Instead, the doubly reduced ("Co(I)") compounds [CoN4] and [CoN4H(MeCN)](+) were isolated and characterized by X-ray crystallography. Their molecular structures prompted DFT studies to illuminate details regarding their electronic structure. The results indicate that reducing equivalents are stored on the ligand, implicating redox noninnocence in the ligands for H2 evolution and CO2 reduction electrocatalysis.

Click-Derived Triazoles and Triazolylidenes of Manganese for Electrocatalytic Reduction of CO2.

Project description:A series of new fac-[Mn(L)(CO)3Br] complexes where L is a bidentate chelating ligand containing mixed mesoionic triazolylidene-pyridine (MIC^py, 1), triazolylidene-triazole (MIC^trz, 2), and triazole-pyridine (trz^py, 3) ligands have been prepared and fully characterized, including the single crystal X-ray diffraction studies of 1 and 2. The abilities of 1-3 and complex fac-[Mn(MIC^MIC)(CO)3Br] (4) to catalyze the electroreduction of CO2 has been assessed for the first time. It was found that all complexes displayed a current increase under CO2 atmosphere, being 3 and 4 the most active complexes. Complex 3, bearing a N^N-based ligand exhibited a good efficiency and an excellent selectivity for reducing CO2 to CO in the presence of 1.0 M of water, at low overpotential. Interestingly, complex 4 containing the strongly electron donating di-imidazolylidene ligand exhibited comparable activity to 3, when the experiments were performed in neat acetonitrile at slightly higher overpotential (-1.86 vs. -2.14 V).

Electrocatalytic Reduction of CO2 to Acetic Acid by a Molecular Manganese Corrole Complex.

Project description:The controlled electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide to value added chemicals is an important strategy in terms of renewable energy technologies. Therefore, the development of efficient and stable catalysts in an aqueous environment is of great importance. In this context, we focused on synthesizing and studying a molecular MnIII -corrole complex, which is modified on the three meso-positions with polyethylene glycol moieties for direct and selective production of acetic acid from CO2 . Electrochemical reduction of MnIII leads to an electroactive MnII species, which binds CO2 and stabilizes the reduced intermediates. This catalyst allows to electrochemically reduce CO2 to acetic acid in a moderate acidic aqueous medium (pH 6) with a selectivity of 63 % and a turn over frequency (TOF) of 8.25 h-1 , when immobilized on a carbon paper (CP) electrode. In terms of high selectivity towards acetate, we propose the formation and reduction of an oxalate type intermediate, stabilized at the MnIII -corrole center.

Asymmetric Push–Pull Type Co(II) Porphyrin for Enhanced Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction Activity

Project description:Molecular electrocatalysts for electrochemical carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction has received more attention both by scientists and engineers, owing to their well-defined structure and tunable electronic property. Metal complexes via coordination with many π-conjugated ligands exhibit the unique electrocatalytic CO2 reduction performance. The symmetric electronic structure of this metal complex may play an important role in the CO2 reduction. In this work, two novel dimethoxy substituted asymmetric and cross-symmetric Co(II) porphyrin (PorCo) have been prepared as the model electrocatalyst for CO2 reduction. Owing to the electron donor effect of methoxy group, the intramolecular charge transfer of these push–pull type molecules facilitates the electron mobility. As electrocatalysts at −0.7 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE), asymmetric methoxy-substituted Co(II) porphyrin shows the higher CO2-to-CO Faradaic efficiency (FECO) of ~95 % and turnover frequency (TOF) of 2880 h−1 than those of control materials, due to its push–pull type electronic structure. The density functional theory (DFT) calculation further confirms that methoxy group could ready to decrease to energy level for formation *COOH, leading to high CO2 reduction performance. This work opens a novel path to the design of molecular catalysts for boosting electrocatalytic CO2 reduction.

Doping palladium with tellurium for the highly selective electrocatalytic reduction of aqueous CO2 to CO.

Project description:Designing highly selective and energy-efficient electrocatalysts to minimize the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction in the electrochemical reduction of aqueous CO2 remains a challenge. In this study, we report that doping Pd with a small amount of Te could selectively convert CO2 to CO with a low overpotential. The PdTe/few-layer graphene (FLG) catalyst with a Pd/Te molar ratio of 1?:?0.05 displayed a maximum CO faradaic efficiency of about 90% at -0.8 V (vs. a reversible hydrogen electrode, RHE), CO partial current density of 4.4 mA cm-2, and CO formation turnover frequency of 0.14 s-1 at -1.0 V (vs. a RHE), which were 3.7-, 4.3-, and 10-fold higher than those of a Pd/FLG catalyst, respectively. Density functional calculations showed that Te adatoms preferentially bind at the terrace sites of Pd, thereby suppressing undesired hydrogen evolution, whereas CO2 adsorption and activation occurred on the high index sites of Pd to produce CO.

Ultrathin bismuth nanosheets from in situ topotactic transformation for selective electrocatalytic CO2 reduction to formate.

Project description:Electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction to formate is desirable but challenging. Current attention is mostly focused on tin-based materials, which, unfortunately, often suffer from limited Faradaic efficiency. The potential of bismuth in carbon dioxide reduction has been suggested but remained understudied. Here, we report that ultrathin bismuth nanosheets are prepared from the in situ topotactic transformation of bismuth oxyiodide nanosheets. They process single crystallinity and enlarged surface areas. Such an advantageous nanostructure affords the material with excellent electrocatalytic performance for carbon dioxide reduction to formate. High selectivity (~100%) and large current density are measured over a broad potential, as well as excellent durability for >10 h. Its selectivity for formate is also understood by density functional theory calculations. In addition, bismuth nanosheets were coupled with an iridium-based oxygen evolution electrocatalyst to achieve efficient full-cell electrolysis. When powered by two AA-size alkaline batteries, the full cell exhibits impressive Faradaic efficiency and electricity-to-formate conversion efficiency.

Hierarchically porous Au nanostructures with interconnected channels for efficient mass transport in electrocatalytic CO2 reduction.

Project description:Electrocatalytic CO2 reduction is a promising way to provide renewable energy from gaseous CO2 The development of nanostructures improves energy efficiency and selectivity for value-added chemicals, but complex nanostructures limit the CO2 conversion rates due to poor mass transport during vigorous electrolysis. Herein, we propose a three-dimensional (3D) hierarchically porous Au comprising interconnected macroporous channels (200-300 nm) and nanopores (∼10 nm) fabricated via proximity-field nanopatterning. The interconnected macropores and nanopores enable efficient mass transport and large active areas, respectively. The roles of each pore network are investigated using reliable 3D nanostructures possessing controlled pore distribution and size. The hierarchical nanostructured electrodes show a high CO selectivity of 85.8% at a low overpotential of 0.264 V and efficient mass activity that is maximum 3.96 times higher than that of dealloyed nanoporous Au. Hence, the systematic model study shows the proposed hierarchical nanostructures have important value in increasing the efficiency of expensive Au.

Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction and H2 Evolution by a Copper (II) Complex with Redox-Active Ligand.

Project description:The process of electrocatalytic CO2 reduction and H2 evolution from water, regarding renewable energy, has become one of the global solutions to problems related to energy consumption and environmental degradation. In order to promote the electrocatalytic reactivity, the study of the role of ligands in catalysis has attracted more and more attention. Herein, we have developed a copper (II) complex with redox-active ligand [Cu(L1)2NO3]NO3 (1, L1 = 2-(6-methoxypyridin-2-yl)-6-nitro-1h-benzo [D] imidazole). X-ray crystallography reveals that the Cu ion in cation of complex 1 is coordinated by two redox ligands L1 and one labile nitrate ligand, which could assist the metal center for catalysis. The longer Cu-O bond between the metal center and the labile nitrate ligand would break to provide an open coordination site for the binding of the substrate during the catalytic process. The electrocatalytic investigation combined with DFT calculations demonstrate that the copper (II) complex could homogeneously catalyze CO2 reduction towards CO and H2 evolution, and this could occur with great performance due to the cooperative effect between the central Cu (II) ion and the redox- active ligand L1. Further, we discovered that the added proton source H2O and TsOH·H2O (p-Toluenesulfonic acid) could greatly enhance its electrocatalytic activity for CO2 reduction and H2 evolution, respectively.
