Electrochemical oxidation of ferricyanide.

ABSTRACT: We report the electrochemical oxidation of ferricyanide, [Fe^III(CN)₆]^3- and characterised the oxidation product by in-situ FTIR and XAS spectroelectrochemistry methods. Oxidation of [Fe^III(CN)₆]^3- is proposed to proceed via a tentative Fe(IV) intermediate that undergoes reduction elimination to give cis-[Fe^III(CN)₄(CH₃CN)₂]^1- as stable product in acetonitrile. Speciation of the oxidation product by DFT calculations is underpinned by good agreement to experimental data.

High-Performance Isotropic Thermo-Electrochemical Cells Using Agar-Gelled Ferricyanide/Ferrocyanide/Guanidinium.

Project description:An isotropic thermo-electrochemical cell is introduced with a high Seebeck coefficient (S e) of 3.3 mV K-1 that uses a ferricyanide/ferrocyanide/guanidinium-based agar-gelated electrolyte. A power density of about 20 µW cm-2 is achieved at a temperature difference of about 10 K, regardless of whether the heat source is on the top or bottom section of the cell. This behavior is very different from that of cells with liquid electrolytes, which exhibit high anisotropy, and for which high S e values are achieved only by heating the bottom electrode. The guanidinium-containing gelatinized cell does not exhibit steady-state operation, but its performance recovers when disconnected from the external load, suggesting that the observed power drop under load conditions is not due to device degeneration. The large S e value and isotropic properties can mean that the novel system represents a major advancement from the standpoint of harvesting of low-temperature heat, such as body heat and solar thermal heat.

Unique oxidation of imidazolidine nitroxides by potassium ferricyanide: strategy for designing paramagnetic probes with enhanced sensitivity to oxidative stress.

Project description:Potassium ferricyanide (PF), routinely employed for the oxidation of sterically-hindered hydroxylamines to nitroxides, is considered to be chemically inert towards the latter. In the present study, we report on an unexpected oxidative fragmentation of the imidazolidine nitroxides containing hydrogen atom in the 4-position of the heterocycle (HIMD) by PF resulting in the loss of the EPR signal. The mechanistic EPR, spectrophotometric, electrochemical and HPLC-MS studies support the assumption that the HIMD fragmentation is facilitated by the proton abstraction from the 4-position of the oxoammonium cation formed as a result of the initial one-electron HIMD oxidation. Increase in steric hindrance around the radical fragment by introducing ethyl substituents decreased the rate of ascorbate-induced HIMD reduction by more than 20 times, but did not affect the rate of ferricyanide-induced HIMD oxidation. This preferential sensitivity of HIMDs to oxidative processes has been used to detect peroxyl radicals in the presence of high concentration of the reducing agent, ascorbate. HIMD-based EPR probes capable to discriminate oxidative and reductive processes might find application in biomedicine and related fields for monitoring the oxidative stress and reactive radical species in biological systems.

The oxidation of Pseudomonas cytochrome c-551 oxidase by potassium ferricyanide.

Project description:Stopped-flow kinetics were made of the reaction between ascorbate-reduced Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase and potassium ferricyanide under both N2 and CO atmospheres. Under N2 three kinetic processes were observed, two being dependent on ferricyanide concentration, with second-order rate constants of 9.6 X 10(4)M-1.s-1 and 1.5 X 10(4)M-1.s-1, whereas the other was concentration-independent, with a first-order rate constant of 0.17 +/- 0.03s-1. Measurements of their kinetic difference spectra have allowed the fastest and second-fastest phases of the reaction to be assigned to direct bimolecular reactions of ferricyanide with the haem c and haem d, moieties of the enzyme respectively. Under CO, the second-order rate constant for the reaction of the haem c was, at 1.3 X 10(5)M-1.s-1, slightly enhanced over the rate in a N2 atmosphere, but the reaction velocity of the haem d1 component was greatly decreased, being apparently limited to that of the rates of CO dissociation from the molecule (0.15s-1 and 0.03s-1). The results are compared with those obtained during a previous study of the reaction of reduced Pseudomonas cytochrome oxidase with oxidized azurin.

Site-Selective Electrochemical Oxidation of Glycosides.

Project description:Quinuclidine-mediated electrochemical oxidation of glycopyranosides provides C3-ketosaccharides with high selectivity and good yields. The method is a versatile alternative to Pd-catalyzed or photochemical oxidation and is complementary to the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl (TEMPO)-mediated C6-selective oxidation. Contrary to the electrochemical oxidation of methylene and methine groups, the reaction proceeds without oxygen.

A neutral polysulfide/ferricyanide redox flow battery.

Project description:Energy storage systems are crucial in the deployment of renewable energies. As one of the most promising solutions, redox flow batteries (RFBs) are still hindered for practical applications by low energy density, high cost, and environmental concerns. To breakthrough the fundamental solubility limit that restricts boosting energy density of the cell, we here demonstrate a new RFB system employing polysulfide and high concentrated ferricyanide (up to 1.6 M) species as reactants. The RFB cell exhibits high cell performances with capacity retention of 96.9% after 1,500 cycles and low reactant cost of $32.47/kWh. Moreover, neutral aqueous electrolytes are environmentally benign and cost-effective. A cell stack is assembled and exhibits low capacity fade rate of 0.021% per cycle over 642 charging-discharging steps (spans 60 days). This neutral polysulfide/ferricyanide RFB technology with high safety, long-duration, low cost, and feasibility of scale-up is an innovative design for storing massive energy.

Limitations of Electrochemical Nitrogen Oxidation toward Nitrate.

Project description:The electrocatalytic N2 oxidation reaction (NOR) using renewable electricity is a promising alternative to the industrial synthesis of nitrate from NH3 oxidation. However, breaking the triple bond in the nitrogen molecule is one of the most essential challenges in chemistry. In this work, we use density functional theory simulations to investigate the plausible reaction mechanisms of electrocatalytic NOR and its competition with oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the atomic scale. We focus on the electrochemical conversion of inert N2 to active *NO during NOR. We propose formation of *N2O from *N2 and *O as the rate-determining step (RDS). Following the RDS, a microkinetic model is utilized to study the rate of NOR on metal oxides. Our results demonstrate that a lower activation energy is obtained when a catalyst binds *O weakly. We show that the reaction is extremely challenging but also that design strategies have been suggested to promote electrochemical NOR.

Highly Charged Cellulose Nanocrystals via Electrochemical Oxidation.

Project description:Due to their exceptional properties, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have been proposed for various applications in sustainable materials science. However, state-of-the-art production methods suffer from low yields and rely on hazardous and environmentally harmful chemicals, representing a bottleneck for more widespread utilization of CNCs. In this study, we present a novel two-step approach that combines previously established HCl gas hydrolysis with electrochemical TEMPO oxidation. This unique method allows the collection of easily dispersible CNCs with high carboxylate contents in excellent overall yields of 71%. The electromediated oxidation was conducted in aqueous conditions without the usually required cocatalysts, simplifying the purification of the materials. Moreover, the proposed process is designed for facile recycling of the used reagents in both steps. To evaluate the sustainability and scalability, the environmental impact factor was calculated, and a cost analysis was conducted.

Electrochemical water oxidation by simple manganese salts.

Project description:Recently, it has been great efforts to synthesize an efficient water-oxidizing catalyst. However, to find the true catalyst in the harsh conditions of the water-oxidation reaction is an open area in science. Herein, we showed that corrosion of some simple manganese salts, MnCO3, MnWO4, Mn3(PO4)2 · 3H2O, and Mn(VO3)2 · xH2O, under the water-electrolysis conditions at pH = 6.3, gives an amorphous manganese oxide. This conversion was studied with X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), as well as, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), spectroelectrochemistry and electrochemistry methods. When using as a water-oxidizing catalyst, such results are important to display that long-term water oxidation can change the nature of the manganese salts.

Inactivating SARS-CoV-2 by electrochemical oxidation.

Project description:Fully inactivating SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing coronavirus disease 2019, is of key importance for interrupting virus transmission but is currently performed by using biologically or environmentally hazardous disinfectants. Herein, we report an eco-friendly and efficient electrochemical strategy for inactivating the SARS-CoV-2 using in-situ formed nickel oxide hydroxide as anode catalyst and sodium carbonate as electrolyte. At a voltage of 5 V, the SARS-CoV-2 viruses can be rapidly inactivated with disinfection efficiency reaching 95% in only 30 s and 99.99% in 5 min. Mass spectrometry analysis and theoretical calculations indicate that the reactive oxygen species generated on the anode can oxidize the peptide chains and induce cleavage of the peptide backbone of the receptor binding domain of the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein, and thereby disables the virus. This strategy provides a sustainable and highly efficient approach for the disinfection of the SARS-CoV-2 viruliferous aerosols and wastewater.

Accessing gold p-acid reactivity under electrochemical anode oxidation (EAO) through oxidation relay.

Project description:The gold π-acid activation under electrochemical conditions is achieved. While EAO allows easy access to gold(III) intermediates over alternative chemical oxidation under mild conditions, the reported examples so far are limited to coupling reactions due to the rapid AuIII reductive elimination. Using aryl hydrazine-HOTf salt as precursors, the π-activation reaction mode was realized through oxidation relay. Both alkene and alkyne di-functionalization were achieved with excellent functional group compatibility and regioselectivity, which extended the versatility and utility of electrochemical gold redox chemistry for future applications.
