Photochemical Hydrogen Evolution from Neutral Water with a Cobalt Metallopeptide Catalyst.

ABSTRACT: CoGGH, a Gly-Gly-His tripeptide coordinated to a cobalt ion, is shown to catalyze the reduction of aqueous protons to hydrogen (H₂) in a light-driven reaction in water near neutral pH. Using [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺ as a photosensitizer and ascorbate as an electron donor, a turnover number up to 2200 with respect to CoGGH has been observed with the system remaining active for more than 48 h. The reaction conditions that favor H₂ production are consistent with a reductive quenching mechanism. Results also suggest that CoGGH is robust under these reaction conditions and loss of activity over time results from [Ru(bpy)₃]²⁺ degradation.

A cobalt mimochrome for photochemical hydrogen evolution from neutral water.

Project description:A system for visible light-driven hydrogen production from water is reported. This system makes use of a synthetic mini-enzyme known as a mimochrome (CoMC6*a) consisting of a cobalt deuteroporphyrin and two attached peptides as a catalyst, [Ru(bpy)3]2+ (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) as a photosensitizer, and ascorbic acid as a sacrificial electron donor. The system achieves turnover numbers (TONs) up to 10,000 with respect to catalyst and optimal activity at pH 7. Comparison with related systems shows that CoMC6*a maintains the advantages of biomolecular catalysts, while exceeding other cobalt porphyrins in terms of total TON and longevity of catalysis. Herein, we lay groundwork for future study, where the synthetic nature of CoMC6*a will provide a unique opportunity to tailor proton reduction chemistry and expand to new reactivity.

Photochemical hydrogen evolution from cobalt microperoxidase-11.

Project description:A photochemical system utilizing the semisynthetic biomolecular catalyst acetylated cobalt microperoxidase-11 (CoMP11-Ac) along with [Ru(bpy)3]2+ as a photosensitizer and ascorbic acid as an electron donor is shown to generate hydrogen from water in a visible light-driven reaction. The reductive quenching pathway facilitated by photoexcited [Ru(bpy)3]2+ overcomes the high overpotential observed for CoMP11-Ac in electrocatalysis, yielding turnover numbers ranging from 606 to 2390 (2 μM - 0.1 μM CoMP11-Ac). The longevity of CoMP11-Ac in the photochemical system, sustaining catalysis for over 20 h, is in contrast to its previously reported behavior in an electrochemical system where catalysis slows after 15 min. Proton reduction turnover number and rate are highest at a neutral pH, a rare feature among cobalt catalysts in similar photochemical systems, which typically function best under acidic conditions. Incorporating biomolecular components into the design of catalysts for photochemical systems may address the need for hydrogen generation from neutral-pH water sources.

A highly active and stable hydrogen evolution catalyst based on pyrite-structured cobalt phosphosulfide.

Project description:Rational design and controlled synthesis of hybrid structures comprising multiple components with distinctive functionalities are an intriguing and challenging approach to materials development for important energy applications like electrocatalytic hydrogen production, where there is a great need for cost effective, active and durable catalyst materials to replace the precious platinum. Here we report a structure design and sequential synthesis of a highly active and stable hydrogen evolution electrocatalyst material based on pyrite-structured cobalt phosphosulfide nanoparticles grown on carbon nanotubes. The three synthetic steps in turn render electrical conductivity, catalytic activity and stability to the material. The hybrid material exhibits superior activity for hydrogen evolution, achieving current densities of 10 mA cm(-2) and 100 mA cm(-2) at overpotentials of 48 mV and 109 mV, respectively. Phosphorus substitution is crucial for the chemical stability and catalytic durability of the material, the molecular origins of which are uncovered by X-ray absorption spectroscopy and computational simulation.

Impacts of Metal-Support Interaction on Hydrogen Evolution Reaction of Cobalt-Nitride-Carbide Catalyst.

Project description:Cobalt-nitride-carbide (Co-N-C) catalysts are promising cost-efficient transition metal catalysts for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution, but few works investigate the metal-support interaction (MSI) effect on hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance. Herein, efficient Co-N-CX catalysts with controllable MSI between encapsulated Co nanoparticles and nitrogen-doped graphitic carbon nanosheets were synthesized via a facile organic-inorganic hybridization method. Results demonstrate that the Co-N-C0.025M catalyst with the coexistence of single-atom Co sites and Co nanoparticles prepared by 0.025 M cobalt nitrate shows excellent HER performance, achieving a low overpotential of 145 mV to reach 10 mA cm-2 in 0.5 M sulfuric acid, which is mainly because the optimal MSI, which leads to a moderate hydrogen adsorption energy and improved electroactive sites, not only facilitates the charge transfer to improve the HER kinetics, but also improves the durability of the catalyst by Co-N bond anchoring and encapsulation of active Co species. This work provides guidance to further reveal the influence of MSI on their catalytic activity.

Unravelling the Mechanistic Pathway of the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction Driven by a Cobalt Catalyst.

Project description:A cobalt complex bearing a κ-N3 P2 ligand is presented (1+ or CoI (L), where L is (1E,1'E)-1,1'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(N-(3-(diphenylphosphanyl)propyl)ethan-1-imine). Complex 1+ is stable under air at oxidation state CoI thanks to the π-acceptor character of the phosphine groups. Electrochemical behavior of 1+ reveals a two-electron CoI /CoIII oxidation process and an additional one-electron reduction, which leads to an enhancement in the current due to hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at Eonset =-1.6 V vs Fc/Fc+ . In the presence of 1 equiv of bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide, 1+ forms the cobalt hydride derivative CoIII (L)-H (22+ ), which has been fully characterized. Further addition of 1 equiv of CoCp*2 (Cp* is pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) affords the reduced CoII (L)-H (2+ ) species, which rapidly forms hydrogen and regenerates the initial CoI (L) (1+ ). The spectroscopic characterization of catalytic intermediates together with DFT calculations support an unusual bimolecular homolytic mechanism in the catalytic HER with 1+ .

Enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution by combining water soluble graphene with cobalt salts.

Project description:There is tremendous effort put in the pursuit for cheap and efficient catalysts for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution systems. Herein, we report an active catalyst that uses the earth-abundant element cobalt and water-dispersible sulfonated graphene. The photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity of the catalyst was tested by using triethanolamine (TEOA) as electron donor and eosin Y (EY) as the photosensitizer under LED irradiation at 525 nm. Hydrogen was produced constantly even after 20 h, and the turnover number (TON) reached 148 (H2/Co) in 4 h with respect to the initial concentration of the added cobalt salts was shown to be 5.6 times larger than that without graphene.

Hydrogen evolution from water catalyzed by cobalt-mimochrome VI*a, a synthetic mini-protein.

Project description:A synthetic enzyme is reported that electrocatalytically reduces protons to hydrogen (H2) in water near neutral pH under aerobic conditions. Cobalt mimochrome VI*a (CoMC6*a) is a mini-protein with a cobalt deuteroporphyrin active site within a scaffold of two synthetic peptides covalently bound to the porphyrin. Comparison of the activity of CoMC6*a to that of cobalt microperoxidase-11 (CoMP11-Ac), a cobalt porphyrin catalyst with a single "proximal" peptide and no organized secondary structure, reveals that CoMC6*a has significantly enhanced longevity, yielding a turnover number exceeding 230 000, in comparison to 25 000 for CoMP11-Ac. Furthermore, comparison of cyclic voltammograms of CoMC6*a and CoMP11-Ac indicates that the trifluoroethanol-induced folding of CoMC6*a lowers the overpotential for catalytic H2 evolution by up to 100 mV. These results demonstrate that even a minimal polypeptide matrix can enhance longevity and efficiency of a H2-evolution catalyst.

Efficient All-2D Amorphous Cobalt Sulfide Nanosheets/Multilayered Molybdenum Disulfide Hybrid Heterojunction Catalyst for Electrochemical Hydrogen Evolution.

Project description:Hydrogen energy is considered to be a critical environmentally friendly and widely sourced renewable energy source that can be used as an alternative to fossil fuels. At present, the preparation of hydrogen (H2) mainly depends on traditional fossil fuels. In order to achieve sustainable development of environmental protection, great attention has been paid to the preparation of H2 by electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, and photoelectrochemistry. Here, it is reported for the first time that a novel active catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction, consisting of all-2D amorphous nanosheets/2D crystal layer heterojunction structure and without any noble metal (no precious metals are present in the preparation or measuring), is almost entirely fabricated by laser ablation in liquid (LAL) growth of amorphous cobalt sulfide on the surface of multilayered molybdenum disulfide. In acidic media, the amorphous cobalt sulfide nanosheets/multilayered molybdenum disulfide (a-CoS/MoS2) catalyst exhibits fast hydrogen evolution kinetics with onset potential of -147 mV and a Tafel slope of 126 mV per decade, which is much better than only the amorphous cobalt sulfide and molybdenum disulfide layer. The high hydrogen evolution activity of the amorphous cobalt sulfide nanosheets/multilayered molybdenum disulfide hybrid is likely due to the unique electrocatalytic synergistic effects between hydrogen evolution-active amorphous cobalt sulfide nanosheets and layered crystal molybdenum disulfide materials, as well as the much-increased catalytic sites. This work provides a new general route based on all-2D amorphous nanosheets/2D crystal structure for designing and preparing novel layered materials with effectively manipulated catalytic properties and active functionality surface.

Nickel-Doped Silver Sulfide: An Efficient Air-Stable Electrocatalyst for Hydrogen Evolution from Neutral Water.

Project description:A low-cost, platinum-free electrocatalyst for hydrogen (H2) generation via the water splitting reaction holds great promise to meet the demand of clean and sustainable energy sources. Recent studies are mainly concerned with semiconducting materials like sulfides, selenides, and phosphides of different transition metals as electrocatalysts. Doping of the transition metals within the host matrix is a good strategy to improve the electrocatalytic activity of the host material. However, this activity largely depends on the nature of the dopant metal and its host matrix as well. To exploit this idea, here, in the present work, we have synthesized semiconducting Ag2S nanoparticles and successfully doped them with different transition metals like Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni to study their electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction from neutral water (pH = 7). Among the systems doped with these transition metals, the Ni-doped Ag2S (Ni-Ag2S) system shows a very low overpotential (50 mV) with high catalytic current in neutral water. The trend in electrocatalytic activity of different transition metals has also been explained. The Ni-Ag2S system also shows very good stability in ambient atmosphere over a long period of time and suffers no catalytic degradation in the presence of oxygen. Structural characterizations are carried out using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy to establish the phase purity and morphology of the materials.

Increasing the rate of the hydrogen evolution reaction in neutral water with protic buffer electrolytes.

Project description:Electrocatalytic generation of H2 is challenging in neutral pH water, where high catalytic currents for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are particularly sensitive to the proton source and solution characteristics. A tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (TRIS) solution at pH 7 with a [2Fe-2S]-metallopolymer electrocatalyst gave catalytic current densities around two orders of magnitude greater than either a more conventional sodium phosphate solution or a potassium chloride (KCl) electrolyte solution. For a planar polycrystalline Pt disk electrode, a TRIS solution at pH 7 increased the catalytic current densities for H2 generation by 50 mA/cm2 at current densities over 100 mA/cm2 compared to a sodium phosphate solution. As a special feature of this study, TRIS is acting not only as the primary source of protons and the buffer of the pH, but the protonated TRIS ([TRIS-H]+) is also the sole cation of the electrolyte. A species that is simultaneously the proton source, buffer, and sole electrolyte is termed a protic buffer electrolyte (PBE). The structure-activity relationships of the TRIS PBE that increase the HER rate of the metallopolymer and platinum catalysts are discussed. These results suggest that appropriately designed PBEs can improve HER rates of any homogeneous or heterogeneous electrocatalyst system. General guidelines for selecting a PBE to improve the catalytic current density of HER systems are offered.
