Oxygen vacancy-rich amorphous FeNi hydroxide nanoclusters as an efficient electrocatalyst for water oxidation
Here, a one-pot strategy is presented to directly synthesize amorphous Fe x Ni y hydroxide nanoclusters (denoted as ANC-Fe x Ni y , <2 nm) with oxygen vacancies induced by ionic liquids. The ANC-Fe x Ni y catalyst presents abundant catalytic sites and high intrinsic conductivity. As such, the optimized ANC-Fe 1 Ni 2 exhibits high activity in oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with a Tafel slope of 39 mV dec –1 and an overpotential of 266 mV at 10 mA cm –2 . Notably, the optimized ANC-Fe 1 Ni 2 shows an extraordinarily large mass activity of 3028 A g FeNi –1 at the overpotential of 300 mV, which is ~24-fold of commercial RuO 2 catalyst. The superior activity of these Fe x Ni y hydroxide nanoclusters is ascribed to (i) the amorphous and distorted structure with abundant oxygen vacancies, and (ii) enhanced active site density by downsizing the ANC-Fe x Ni y clusters. This strategy provides a novel route for enhancing OER electrocatalytic performance and highly encouraging for the future application of amorphous metal hydroxides in catalysis.
Synthesis, Characterization, and Water Oxidation Activity of Isomeric Ru Complexes
The synthesis and characterization of the isomeric ruthenium complexes with the general formula cis- and trans-[Ru(trpy)(qc)X] n+ (trpy is 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine, qc is 8-quinolinecarboxylate, cis-1 and trans-1, X = Cl, n = 0; cis-2 and trans-2, X=OH2, n = 1) with respect to the relative disposition of the carboxylate and X ligands are reported. For comparison purposes, another set of ruthenium complexes with general formula cis- and trans-[Ru(trpy)(pic)(OH 2 )]+ (pic is 2-picolinate (cis-3, trans-3)) have been prepared. The complexes with a qc ligand show a more distorted geometry compared to the complexes with a pic ligand. In all of the cases, the trans isomers show lower potential values for all of the redox couples relative to the cis isomers. Furthermore, complexes cis-2 and trans-2 with six-member chelate rings show higher catalytic activity than cis-3 and trans-3. Overall, it was shown that the electronic perturbation to the metal center exerted by different orientation and geometry of the ligands significantly influences both redox properties and catalytic performance.
