Structure-Activity Relationship for Di- up to Tetranuclear Macrocyclic Ruthenium Catalysts in Homogeneous Water Oxidation.

ABSTRACT: Two di- and tetranuclear Ru(bda) (bda: 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylate) macrocyclic complexes were synthesized and their catalytic activities in chemical and photochemical water oxidation investigated in a comparative manner to our previously reported trinuclear congener. Our studies have shown that the catalytic activities of this homologous series of multinuclear Ru(bda) macrocycles in homogeneous water oxidation are dependent on their size, exhibiting highest efficiencies for the largest tetranuclear catalyst. The turnover frequencies (TOFs) have increased from di- to tetranuclear macrocycles not only per catalyst molecule but more importantly also per Ru unit with TOF of 6 s^-1 to 8.7 s^-1 and 10.5 s^-1 in chemical and 0.6 s^-1 to 3.3 s^-1 and 5.8 s^-1 in photochemical water oxidation per Ru unit, respectively. Thus, for the first time, a clear structure-activity relationship could be established for this novel class of macrocyclic water oxidation catalysts.

Highly efficient and robust molecular ruthenium catalysts for water oxidation.

Project description:Water oxidation catalysts are essential components of light-driven water splitting systems, which could convert water to H(2) driven by solar radiation (H(2)O + h? ? 1/2O(2) + H(2)). The oxidation of water (H(2)O ? 1/2O(2) + 2H(+) + 2e(-)) provides protons and electrons for the production of dihydrogen (2H(+) + 2e(-) ? H(2)), a clean-burning and high-capacity energy carrier. One of the obstacles now is the lack of effective and robust water oxidation catalysts. Aiming at developing robust molecular Ru-bda (H(2)bda = 2,2'-bipyridine-6,6'-dicarboxylic acid) water oxidation catalysts, we carried out density functional theory studies, correlated the robustness of catalysts against hydration with the highest occupied molecular orbital levels of a set of ligands, and successfully directed the synthesis of robust Ru-bda water oxidation catalysts. A series of mononuclear ruthenium complexes [Ru(bda)L(2)] (L = pyridazine, pyrimidine, and phthalazine) were subsequently synthesized and shown to effectively catalyze Ce(IV)-driven [Ce(IV) = Ce(NH(4))(2)(NO(3))(6)] water oxidation with high oxygen production rates up to 286 s(-1) and high turnover numbers up to 55,400.

Olefin metathesis in homogeneous aqueous media catalyzed by conventional ruthenium catalysts.

Project description:Olefin metathesis in aqueous solvents is sought for applications in green chemistry and with the hydrophilic substrates of chemical biology, such as proteins and polysaccharides. Most demonstrations of metathesis in water, however, utilize exotic complexes. We have examined the performance of conventional catalysts in homogeneous water/organic mixtures, finding that the second-generation Hoveyda-Grubbs catalyst has extraordinary efficiency in aqueous dimethoxyethane and aqueous acetone. High (71-95%) conversions are achieved for ring-closing and cross metathesis of a variety of substrates in these solvent systems.

Control over Electrochemical Water Oxidation Catalysis by Preorganization of Molecular Ruthenium Catalysts in Self-Assembled Nanospheres.

Project description:Oxygen formation through water oxidation catalysis is a key reaction in the context of fuel generation from renewable energies. The number of homogeneous catalysts that catalyze water oxidation at high rate with low overpotential is limited. Ruthenium complexes can be particularly active, especially if they facilitate a dinuclear pathway for oxygen bond formation step. A supramolecular encapsulation strategy is reported that involves preorganization of dilute solutions (10-5 ?m) of ruthenium complexes to yield high local catalyst concentrations (up to 0.54?m). The preorganization strategy enhances the water oxidation rate by two-orders of magnitude to 125?s-1 , as it facilitates the diffusion-controlled rate-limiting dinuclear coupling step. Moreover, it modulates reaction rates, enabling comprehensive elucidation of electrocatalytic reaction mechanisms.

Strong Ligand Stabilization Based on π-Extension in a Series of Ruthenium Terpyridine Water Oxidation Catalysts.

Project description:The substitution behavior of the monodentate Cl ligand of a series of ruthenium(II) terpyridine complexes (terpyridine (tpy)=2,2':6',2''-terpyridine) has been investigated. 1 H NMR kinetic experiments of the dissociation of the chloro ligand in D2 O for the complexes [Ru(tpy)(bpy)Cl]Cl (1, bpy=2,2'-bipyridine) and [Ru(tpy)(dppz)Cl]Cl (2, dppz=dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine) as well as the binuclear complex [Ru(bpy)2 (tpphz)Ru(tpy)Cl]Cl3 (3 b, tpphz=tetrapyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c:3'',2''-h:2''',3'''-j]phenazine) were conducted, showing increased stability of the chloride ligand for compounds 2 and 3 due to the extended π-system. Compounds 1-5 (4=[Ru(tbbpy)2 (tpphz)Ru(tpy)Cl](PF6 )3 , 5=[Ru(bpy)2 (tpphz)Ru(tpy)(C3 H8 OS)/(H2 O)](PF6 )3 , tbbpy=4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine) are tested for their ability to run water oxidation catalysis (WOC) using cerium(IV) as sacrificial oxidant. The WOC experiments suggest that the stability of monodentate (chloride) ligand strongly correlates to catalytic performance, which follows the trend 1>2>5≥3>4. This is also substantiated by quantum chemical calculations, which indicate a stronger binding for the chloride ligand based on the extended π-systems in compounds 2 and 3. Additionally, a theoretical model of the mechanism of the oxygen evolution of compounds 1 and 2 is presented; this suggests no differences in the elementary steps of the catalytic cycle within the bpy to the dppz complex, thus suggesting that differences in the catalytic performance are indeed based on ligand stability. Due to the presence of a photosensitizer and a catalytic unit, binuclear complexes 3 and 4 were tested for photocatalytic water oxidation. The bridging ligand architecture, however, inhibits the effective electron-transfer cascade that would allow photocatalysis to run efficiently. The findings of this study can elucidate critical factors in catalyst design.

Amphiphilic Oxo-Bridged Ruthenium "Green Dimer" for Water Oxidation.

Project description:In 1982, an oxo-bridged dinuclear ruthenium(III) complex, known as "blue dimer," was discovered to be active for water oxidation. In this work, a new amphiphilic ruthenium "green dimer" 2, obtained from an amphiphilic mononuclear Ru(bda) (N-OTEG) (L1) (1; N-OTEG = 4-(2-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)-pyridine; L1 = vinylpyridine) is reported. An array of mechanistic studies identifies "green dimer" 2 as a mixed valence of RuII-O-RuIII oxo-bridged structure. Bearing the same bda2- and amphiphilic axial ligands, monomer 1 and green dimer 2 can be reversibly converted by ascorbic acid and oxygen, respectively, in aqueous solution. More importantly, the oxo-bridged "green dimer" 2 was found to take water nucleophilic attack for oxygen evolution, in contrast to monomer 1 via radical coupling pathway for O-O bond formation. This is the first report of an amphiphilic oxo-bridged catalyst, which possesses a new oxygen evolution pathway of Ru-bda catalysts.

Photochemical Water Oxidation in a Buffered Tris(2,2'-bipyridyl)ruthenium-Persulfate System Using Iron(III)-Modified Potassium Manganese Oxides as Catalysts.

Project description:Study of manganese oxides for electrocatalytic and photocatalytic oxidation of water is an active area of research. The starting material in this study is a high-surface-area disordered birnessite-like material with K+ in the interlayers (KMnOx). Upon ion-exchange with Fe3+, the disordered layer structure collapses (Fe(IE)MnOx), and the surface area is slightly increased. Structural analysis of the Fe(IE)MnOx included examination of its morphology, crystal structure, vibrational spectra, and manganese oxidation states. Using the Ru(bpy)3 2+-persulfate system, the dissolved and headspace oxygen upon visible light photolysis with highly dispersed Fe(IE)MnOx was measured. The photocatalytic activity for O2 evolution of the Fe(IE)MnOx was three times better than KMnOx, with the highest rate being 9.3 mmolO2 molMn -1 s-1. The improvement of the photocatalytic activity was proposed to arise from the increased disorder and interaction of Fe3+ with the MnO6 octahedra. As a benchmark, colloidal IrO2 was a better photocatalyst by a factor of ∼75 over Fe(IE)MnOx.

Ruthenium-Based Macromolecules as Potential Catalysts in Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Phases for the Utilization of Carbon Dioxide.

Project description:Ruthenium-containing tetraphenylporphyrin (Ru-TPP) molecule was prepared, and the structural elucidation was confirmed using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), CHN, and mass spectral analyses. The incorporation of ruthenium ion into the cavities of the macromolecule was confirmed from the disappearance of the 1H NMR signal, characteristic of the N-H bond (-2.72 ppm in TPP). The CHN and mass spectral analyses of the ligand and metallomacromolecules are consistent with the theoretically calculated values. The homogeneous Ru-TPP macromolecule is grafted on the surface of aminosilane-, diaminosilane-, and iodosilane-functionalized SBA-15 molecular sieves. The successful grafting of Ru-TPP on functionalized mesoporous molecular sieve materials was evident from low-angle powder X-ray diffraction, 13C magic angle spinning NMR, and scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray analyses. The resultant homogeneous and heterogenized Ru-TPP catalysts were used for the utilization of carbon dioxide (CO2) under moderate reaction conditions. The homogeneous Ru-TPP catalyst showed first-order kinetics with respect to epoxide with the exclusive formation of cyclic carbonate (about 98%) and an activation energy of 16.07 kg/mol, which is much lower than some of the reported catalysts. Ru-TPP grafted on aminosilane- and iodosilane-functionalized materials showed better catalytic activity (above 90% conversion and 83-96% cyclic carbonate selectivity) and reusability for the chosen reaction.

Investigating active phase loss from supported ruthenium catalysts during supercritical water gasification.

Project description:Active phase loss mechanisms from Ru/AC catalysts were studied in continuous supercritical water gasification (SCWG) for the first time by analysing the Ru content in process water with low limit-of-detection time-resolved ICP-MS. Ru loss was investigated alongside the activity of commercial and in-house Ru-based catalysts, showing very low Ru loss rates compared to Ru/metal-oxides (0.2-1.2 vs. 10-24 μg gRu -1 h-1, respectively). Furthermore, AC-supported Ru catalysts showed superior long-term SCWG activity to their oxide-based analogues. The impact on Ru loss of several parameters relevant for catalytic SCWG (temperature, feed concentration or feed rate) was also studied and was shown to have no effect on the Ru concentration in the process water, as it systematically stabilised to 0.01-0.2 μgRu L-1 for Ru/AC. Looking into the type of Ru loss in steady-state operation, time-resolved ICP-MS confirmed a high probability of finding Ru in the ionic form, suggesting that leaching is the main steady-state Ru loss mechanism. In non-steady-state operation, abrupt changes in the pressure and flow rate induced important Ru losses, which were assigned to catalyst fragments. This is directly linked to irreversible mechanical damage to the catalyst. Taking the different observations into consideration, the following Ru loss mechanisms are suggested: 1) constant Ru dissolution (leaching) until solubility equilibrium is reached; 2) minor nanoparticle uncoupling from the support (both at steady state); 3) support disintegration leading to the loss of larger amounts of Ru in the form of catalyst fragments (abrupt feed rate or pressure variations). The very low Ru concentrations detected in process water at steady state (0.01-0.2 μgRu L-1) are close to the thermodynamic equilibrium and indicated that leaching did not contribute to Ru/AC deactivation in SCWG.

Crossing the divide between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis in water oxidation.

Project description:Enhancing the surface binding stability of chromophores, catalysts, and chromophore-catalyst assemblies attached to metal oxide surfaces is an important element in furthering the development of dye sensitized solar cells, photoelectrosynthesis cells, and interfacial molecular catalysis. Phosphonate-derivatized catalysts and molecular assemblies provide a basis for sustained water oxidation on these surfaces in acidic solution but are unstable toward hydrolysis and loss from surfaces as the pH is increased. Here, we report enhanced surface binding stability of a phosphonate-derivatized water oxidation catalyst over a wide pH range (1-12) by atomic layer deposition of an overlayer of TiO2. Increased stability of surface binding, and the reactivity of the bound catalyst, provides a hybrid approach to heterogeneous catalysis combining the advantages of systematic modifications possible by chemical synthesis with heterogeneous reactivity. For the surface-stabilized catalyst, greatly enhanced rates of water oxidation are observed upon addition of buffer bases -H2PO(-)(4)/HPO(2-)(4), B(OH)3/B(OH)2 O-, HPO(2-)4 /PO(3-)(4) - and with a pathway identified in which O-atom transfer to OH(-) occurs with a rate constant increase of 10(6) compared to water oxidation in acid.

Stabilized photoanodes for water oxidation by integration of organic dyes, water oxidation catalysts, and electron-transfer mediators.

Project description:Stabilized photoanodes for light-driven water oxidation have been prepared on nanoparticle core/shell electrodes with surface-stabilized donor-acceptor chromophores, a water oxidation catalyst, and an electron-transfer mediator. For the electrode, fluorine-doped tin oxide FTO|SnO2/TiO2|-Org1-|1.1 nm Al2O3|-RuP2+-WOC (water oxidation catalyst) with Org1 (1-cyano-2-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)vinyl)phosphonic acid), the mediator RuP2+ ([Ru(4,4-(PO3H2)2-2,2-bipyridine)(2,2-bipyridine)2]2+), and the WOC, Ru(bda)(py(CH2)(3or10)P(O3H)2)2 (bda is 2,2-bipyridine-6,6-dicarboxylate with x = 3 or 10), solar excitation resulted in photocurrents of ?500 µA/cm2 and quantitative O2 evolution at pH 4.65. Related results were obtained for other Ru(II) polypyridyl mediators. For the organic dye PP (5-(4-(dihydroxyphosphoryl)phenyl)-10,15,20-Tris(mesityl)porphyrin), solar water oxidation occurred with a driving force near 0 V.
