A stronger acceptor decreases the rates of charge transfer: ultrafast dynamics and on/off switching of charge separation in organometallic donor-bridge-acceptor systems. Chem Sci 2023; 14:11417-11428. [PMID: 37886100 PMCID: PMC10599469 DOI: 10.1039/d2sc06409j] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
To unravel the role of driving force and structural changes in directing the photoinduced pathways in donor-bridge-acceptor (DBA) systems, we compared the ultrafast dynamics in novel DBAs which share a phenothiazine (PTZ) electron donor and a Pt(ii) trans-acetylide bridge (-C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C-Pt-C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C-), but bear different acceptors conjugated into the bridge (naphthalene-diimide, NDI; or naphthalene-monoimide, NAP). The excited state dynamics were elucidated by transient absorption, time-resolved infrared (TRIR, directly following electron density changes on the bridge/acceptor), and broadband fluorescence-upconversion (FLUP, directly following sub-picosecond intersystem crossing) spectroscopies, supported by TDDFT calculations. Direct conjugation of a strong acceptor into the bridge leads to switching of the lowest excited state from the intraligand 3IL state to the desired charge-separated 3CSS state. We observe two surprising effects of an increased strength of the acceptor in NDI vs. NAP: a ca. 70-fold slow-down of the 3CSS formation-(971 ps)-1vs. (14 ps)-1, and a longer lifetime of the 3CSS (5.9 vs. 1 ns); these are attributed to differences in the driving force ΔGet, and to distance dependence. The 100-fold increase in the rate of intersystem crossing-to sub-500 fs-by the stronger acceptor highlights the role of delocalisation across the heavy-atom containing bridge in this process. The close proximity of several excited states allows one to control the yield of 3CSS from ∼100% to 0% by solvent polarity. The new DBAs offer a versatile platform for investigating the role of bridge vibrations as a tool to control excited state dynamics.

Abstract
Interest in securing energy production channels from renewable sources is higher than ever due to the daily observation of the impacts of climate change. A key renewable energy harvesting strategy achieving carbon neutral cycles is artificial photosynthesis. Solar-to-fuel routes thus far relied on elaborately crafted semiconductors, undermining the cost-efficiency of the system. Furthermore, fuels produced required separation prior to utilization. As an artificial photosynthesis design, here we demonstrate the conversion of swimming green algae into photovoltaic power stations. The engineered algae exhibit bioelectrogenesis, en route to energy storage in hydrogen. Notably, fuel formation requires no additives or external bias other than CO2 and sunlight. The cellular power stations autoregulate the oxygen level during artificial photosynthesis, granting immediate utility of the photosynthetic hydrogen without separation. The fuel production scales linearly with the reactor volume, which is a necessary trait for contributing to the large-scale renewable energy portfolio.

Abstract
The development of an efficient electrocatalyst for the water oxidation reaction is limited by unfavorable scaling relations between catalytic intermediates, resulting in an overpotential. In contrast to heterogeneous catalysts, the electronic structure of homogeneous catalysts can be modified to a great extent due to a tailored ligand design. However, studies utilizing the tunability of organic ligands have rarely been conducted in a systematic manner and, as of yet, have not produced catalytic paths that avoid the aforementioned unfavorable scaling relations. To investigate the influence of electron-donating groups (EDGs) or electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) on elementary steps in electrochemical water oxidation catalysis, cis-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)]2+ (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) was selected as the scaffold that was modified with methyl, methoxy, chloro, and trifluoromethyl groups. This catalyst can undergo several electron transfer (ET), proton transfer (PT), and proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) steps that were all probed experimentally. In this systematic study, it was found that PCET steps are relatively insensitive with respect to the presence of EDGs or EWGs, while the decoupled ET and PT steps are more heavily affected. However, the influence of the substituents decreases with an increasing oxidation state of Ru due to a lack of d-electrons available at the Ru center for π-backbonding to the bipyridine ligand. Therefore, the RuV/VI redox couple appears to be relatively unaffected by the substituent. Nevertheless, the implementation of EWGs can shift all oxidation events to a very narrow potential window. Not only do our findings illustrate how electronic substituents affect the entire potential energy landscape of the catalytic water oxidation reaction, but they also show that the cis-[Ru(bpy)2(H2O)]2+ compounds follow different design rules and scaling relations, as has been reported for every other oxygen evolution catalyst thus far.

Abstract
The chemistry of Group 15 porphyrins has been established relatively well among the main-group porphyrins. Thus far phosphorus(III), phosphorus(V), arsenic(III), arsenic(V), antimony(III), antimony(V), and bismuth(III) porphyrins have been reported. Their unique axial-bonding ability, rich redox, and optical properties offer an advantage over other main-group or transition metal porphyrins. They could be excellent candidates for a variety of applications such as solar energy harvesting, molecular electronics, molecular catalysis, and biomedical applications. Despite these unique properties, the Group 15 porphyrins are not exploited at their fullest capacity. Recently, there has been some interest, where the richness of Group 15 porphyrin chemistry was explored for some of the above applications. In this context, this article summarizes recent advances in Group 15 porphyrin chemistry and attempts to unravel the tremendous opportunities of these remarkable porphyrins.

Abstract
Perovskite-based photocatalysts have received significant attention for converting CO2 into fuels, such as CO, CH4 or long alkyl chains. However, the use of these catalysts is plagued by several limitations, such as poor stability, lead toxicity, and inadequate conversion efficiency due to the rapid recombination of carriers. Herein, a g-C3N4@Cs2AgBiBr6 (CABB) type II heterojunction photocatalyst has been prepared by growing lead-free CABB nanocrystals (10-14 nm) on the graphite-like carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheet using the in situ crystallization method. The resulting nanocomposite, g-C3N4@CABB, demonstrated an efficient charge transfer pathway via a typical type II heterojunction. With formation rates of 10.30 μmol g-1 h-1 for CO and 0.88 μmol g-1 h-1 for CH4 under visible light irradiation, the nanocomposite exhibited enhanced photocatalytic efficiency in CO2 reduction compared to CABB and g-C3N4. The improved photocatalytic performance of the g-C3N4@CABB nanocomposite was attributed to the fabricated type II heterojunction, which boosted the interfacial charge transfer from g-C3N4 to CABB. This work will inspire the design of heterojunction-based photocatalysts and increase the fundamental understanding of perovskite-based catalysts in the CO2 photoreduction process.

Abstract
Due to the easy accessibility, chemical stability, and structural tunability of the macrocyclic skeleton, cobalt phthalocyanines immobilized on carbon supports offer an ideal research model for advanced electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (eCO2 RR). In this work, an amphiphilic cobalt phthalocyanine (TC-CoPc) is loaded on multiwalled carbon nanotubes to reveal the roles of hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties on catalytic efficiency. Surprisingly, the resultant electrode exhibits a CO Faradaic efficiency (FECO ) of 95% for CO2 RR with turnover frequency (TOF) of 29.4 s-1 at an overpotential of 0.585 V over long-term electrolysis in a H-type cell. In the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) device, the boosted transport of water vapor to the catalyst layer slows down carbonate crystallization and enhances the stability of the electrode, with FECO value of >99% over 27 h at -0.25 A, representing the best selectivity and stability among reported molecular catalysts in MEA devices. The amphiphilic cobalt phthalocyanine, which decreases interfacial charge and mass transfer resistance and maintains effective contact between active sites and the electrolyte, highlights the exceptional CO2 conversion from a molecular perspective.

Abstract
The nucleophilic attack of water or hydroxide on metal-oxo units forms an O-O bond in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Coordination tuning to improve this attack is intriguing but has been rarely realized. We herein report on improved OER catalysis by metal porphyrin 1-M (M=Co, Fe) with a coordinatively unsaturated metal ion. We designed and synthesized 1-M by sterically blocking one porphyrin side with a tethered tetraazacyclododecane unit. With this protection, the metal-oxo species generated in OER can maintain an unoccupied trans axial site. Importantly, 1-M displays a higher OER activity in alkaline solutions than analogues lacking such an axial protection by decreasing up to 150-mV overpotential to achieve 10 mA/cm2 current density. Theoretical studies suggest that with an unoccupied trans axial site, the metal-oxo unit becomes more positively charged and thus is more favoured for the hydroxide nucleophilic attack as compared to metal-oxo units bearing trans axial ligands.

Abstract
A key challenge to the effective utilization of solar energy is to promote efficient photoinduced charge transfer, specifically avoiding unproductive, circuitous electron-transfer pathways and optimizing the kinetics of charge separation and recombination. We hypothesize that one way to address this challenge is to develop a fundamental understanding of how to initiate and control directional photoinduced charge transfer, particularly for earth-abundant first-row transition-metal coordination complexes, which typically suffer from relatively short excited-state lifetimes. Here, we report a series of functionalized heteroleptic copper(I)bis(phenanthroline) complexes, which have allowed us to investigate the directionality of intramolecular photoinduced metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) as a function of the substituent Hammett parameter. Ultrafast transient absorption suggests a complicated interplay of MLCT localization and solvent interaction with the Cu(II) center of the MLCT state. This work provides a set of design principles for directional charge transfer in earth-abundant complexes and can be used to efficiently design pathways for connecting the molecular modules to catalysts or electrodes and integration into systems for light-driven catalysis.

Abstract
Photocatalysis induced by localized surface plasmon resonance of metallic nanoparticles has been studied for more than a decade, but photocatalysis originating from direct interband excitations is still under-explored. The spectral overlap and the coupling of these two optical regimes also complicate the determination of hot carriers' energy states and eventually hinder the accurate assignment of their catalytic role in studied reactions. In this Featured Article, after reviewing previous studies, we suggest classifying the photoexcitation via intra- and interband transitions where the physical states of hot carriers are well-defined. Intraband transitions are featured by creating hot electrons above the Fermi level and suitable for reductive catalytic pathways, whereas interband transitions are featured by generating hot d-band holes below the Fermi level and better for oxidative catalytic pathways. Since the contribution of intra- and interband transitions are different in the spectral regions of localized surface plasmon resonance and direct interband excitations, the wavelength dependence of the photocatalytic activities is very helpful in assigning which transitions and carriers contribute to the observed catalysis.

Abstract
The scission of the O-O bond in O2 during respiration and the formation of the O-O bond during photosynthesis are the engines of aerobic life. Likewise, the reduction of O2 and the oxidation of reduced oxygen species to form O2 are indispensable components for emerging renewable technologies, including energy storage and conversion, yet discrete molecule-like systems that promote these fundamental reactions are rare. Herein, we report a square-planar tetramanganese cluster formed by self-assembly within a metal-organic framework that reversibly reduces O2 by four electrons, facilitating the interconversion between molecular O2 and metal-oxo species. The tetranuclear cluster spontaneously cleaves the O-O bond of O2 at room temperature to generate a tetramanganese-bis(μ2-oxo) species, which, in turn, is competent for O-O bond reformation and O2 evolution at elevated temperatures, enabled by the head-to-head orientation of two oxo species. This study demonstrates the viability of four-electron interconversion between molecular O2 and metal-oxo species and highlights the importance of site isolation for achieving multi-electron chemistry at polynuclear metal clusters.

Abstract
This article describes the synthesis and characterization of an organic-inorganic hybrid polyoxometalate functionalized by a short link with a tripodal N-based ligand and its copper complex. Upon visible light irradiation, the latter is able to store up to three reducing equivalents. The locus of the reduction is discussed based on physicochemical measurements and DFT calculations. In the presence of Togni's reagent, this complex allows for the photocatalytic generation of CF3 radicals, opening the road to valuable synthetic applications.

The zinc-based photocatalysts for CO2 reduction have attracted increasing attention, however, usually exhibit low CO2-to-CH4 selectivity. Here, the graphene oxide (GO)-coated zinc tetraphenylporphyrin (ZnTPP/GO) nanocomposites are successfully synthesized through a simple method. It is found that with the increase of GO content, the crystallinity of ZnTPP nanocrystals enhances with the size decrease, and then the light absorption can easily match with the solar spectrum. The optimal ZnTPP/GO sample exhibits the CH4 evolution rate of 41.6 μmol g-1 h-1 and CH4 selectivity of >95%, which are higher than those of ZnTPP nanocrystals (7.8 μmol g-1 h-1 and 50.3%). The systematic characterizations confirm that the generation of axial coordinated ZnOC bonds between ZnTPP and GO plays a key role in the formation of ZnTPP/GO nanostructure and their synergic effect on photocatalytic CO2 reduction. The encapsulation of GO on ZnTPP nanocrystals not only promotes the CO2 adsorption, interfacial reaction, and stability, but also accelerates the separation of photoinduced carriers on ZnTPP (0.1 ps vs. 425.9 ps), the transportation from ZnTPP to GO (2.3 ps vs. 83.6 ps), and their final enrichment on GO. This work provides a new strategy to apply graphene and organic nanomaterials in artificial photosynthesis.

Abstract
As an emerging subset of organic complexes, metal complexes have garnered considerable attention owing to their outstanding structures, properties, and applications. In this content, metal-organic cages (MOCs) with defined shapes and sizes provide internal spaces to isolate water for guest molecules, which can be selectively captured, isolated, and released to achieve control over chemical reactions. Complex supramolecules are constructed by simulating the self-assembly behavior of the molecules or structures in nature. For this purpose, massive amounts of cavity-containing supramolecules, such as metal-organic cages (MOCs), have been extensively explored for a large variety of reactions with a high degree of reactivity and selectivity. Because sunlight and water are necessary for the process of photosynthesis, water-soluble metal-organic cages (WSMOCs) are ideal platforms for photo-responsive stimulation and photo-mediated transformation by simulating photosynthesis due to their defined sizes, shapes, and high modularization of metal centers and ligands. Therefore, the design and synthesis of WSMOCs with uncommon geometries embedded with functional building units is of immense importance for artificial photo-responsive stimulation and photo-mediated transformation. In this review, we introduce the general synthetic strategies of WSMOCs and their applications in this sparking field.

Abstract
The use of colloidal nanocrystals as part of artificial photosynthetic systems has recently gained significant attention, owing to their strong light absorption and highly reproducible, tunable electronic and optical properties. The complete photocatalytic conversion of water to its components is yet to be achieved in a practically suitable and commercially viable manner. To complete this challenging task, we are required to fully understand the mechanistic aspects of the underlying light-driven processes involving not just single charge carriers but also multiple charge carriers in detail. This review focuses on recent progress in understanding charge carrier dynamics in semiconductor nanocrystals and the influence of various parameters such as dimension, composition, and cocatalysts. Transient absorption spectroscopic studies involving single and multiple charge carriers, and the challenges associated with the need for accumulation of multiple charge carriers to drive the targeted chemical reactions, are discussed.

Bioelectrochemistry 2023; 152:108454. [PMID: 37172391 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioelechem.2023.108454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
Photosynthesis is a fundamental process used by Nature to convert solar energy into chemical energy. For the last twenty years, many solutions have been explored to provide electrical power from the photosynthetic chain. In this context, the coupling between microalgae and exogenous quinones is an encouraging strategy because of the capability of quinones to be reduced by the photosynthetic chain. The ability of a quinone to be a good or bad electron acceptor can be evaluated by fluorescence measurements. Fluorescence analyses are thus a convenient tool helping to define a diverting parameter for some quinones. However, this parameter is implicitly designed on the basis of a particular light capture mechanism by algae. In this paper, we propose to revisit previous fluorescence experimental data by considering the two possible mechanisms (lake vs. puddle) and discussing their implication on the conclusions of the analysis. In particular, we show that the maximum extraction efficiency depends on the mechanism (in the case of 2,6-dichlorobenzoquinone - 2,6-DCBQ, (0.45 ± 0.02) vs (0.61 ± 0.03) for lake and puddle mechanisms respectively) but that the trends for different quinones remain correlated to the redox potentials independently of the mechanism.

Abstract
Ru-melem and Ru-C3N4 were synthesized by a simple and facile strategy to construct a novel covalently anchoring by introducing easily synthesized amide bond as a bridge connecting the Ru-terpy and melem or g-C3N4, respectively. The covalent anchoring of Ru complex on melem or C3N4 not only makes these materials exhibit water oxidation activity under CeIV-driven (CeIV = Ce(NH4)2(NO3)6) reaction condition, but also makes the obtained heterogeneous catalysts show higher catalytic activity than the corresponding homogeneous catalysts, which reveals that the covalent anchoring strategy of Ru complex is beneficial to improve the catalytic activity of homogeneous Ru catalysts. The synthetic method of hybrid catalysts offers an insightful strategy for enhancing water oxidation activity of molecular catalysts.

Abstract
Molecular catalysts are promising oxygen evolution promoters in conjunction with photoanodes for solar water splitting. Maintaining the stability of both photoabsorber and cocatalyst is still a prime challenge, with many efforts tackling this issue through sophisticated material designs. Such approaches often mask the importance of the electrode-electrolyte interface and overlook easily tunable system parameters, such as the electrolyte environment, to improve efficiency. We provide a systematic study on the activity-stability relationship of a prominent Fe2 O3 photoanode modified with Ir molecular catalysts using in situ mass spectroscopy. After gaining detailed insights into the dissolution behavior of the Ir cocatalyst, a comprehensive pH study is conducted to probe the impact of the electrolyte on the performance. An inverse trend in Fe and Ir stability is found, with the best activity-stability synergy obtained at pH 9.7. The results bring awareness to the overall photostability and electrolyte engineering when advancing catalysts for solar water splitting.

Abstract
Clean energy vectors are needed towards a fossil fuel-free society, diminishing both greenhouse effect and pollution. Electrochemical water splitting is a clean route to obtain green hydrogen, the cleanest fuel; although efficient electrocatalysts are required to avoid high overpotentials in this process. The combination of inorganic semiconductors with biocatalysts for photoelectrochemical H2 production is an alternative approach to overcome this challenge. N-type semiconductors can be coupled to a co-catalyst for H2 production in the presence of a sacrificial electron donor in solution, but the replacement of the latter with an electrode is a challenge. In this work we attach a NiFeSe-hydrogenase with high activity for H2 production with the n-type semiconductor indium sulfide, which upon visible irradiation is able to transfer its excited electrons to the enzyme. In order to enhance the transfer of the generated holes towards the electrode for their replenishment, we have explored the inclusion of a p-type material, NiO, to induce a p-n junction for H2 production in a photoelectrochemical biocatalytic system in absence of sacrificial reagents.

Abstract
Developing artificial symbionts beyond natural synthesis limitations would bring revolutionary contributions to agriculture, medicine, environment, etc. Here, we initiated a solar-driven multi-organism symbiont, which was assembled by the CO2 fixation module of Synechocystis sp., N2 fixation module of Rhodopseudomonas palustris, biofunctional polypeptides synthesis module of Bacillus licheniformis, and the electron transfer module of conductive cationic poly(fluorene-co-phenylene) derivative. The modular design broke the pathway to synthesize γ-polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) using CO2 and N2, attributing to the artificially constructed direct interspecific substance and electron transfer. So, the intracellular ATP and NADPH were enhanced by 69 and 30%, respectively, and the produced γ-PGA was enhanced by 104%. The strategy was further extended to produce a commercial antibiotic of bacitracin A. These achievements improve the selectivity and yield of functional polypeptides with one click by CO2 and N2, and also provide an innovative strategy for creating photosynthetic systems on demand.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic properties of Ru complexes are of great technological interest given their potential application in reactions such water splitting and CO2 reduction. In this work, a novel terpyridine-based Ru(II) complex, [RuCl(trpy)(acpy)], trpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine, acpy- = 2-pyridylacetate was synthesized and its spectroscopic, electrochemical and catalytic properties were explored in detail. In dry acetonitrile, the complex exhibits two reduction peaks at -1.95 V and -2.20 V vs. Fc/Fc+, attributed to consecutive 1 e- reduction. Under CO2 atmosphere, a catalytic wave is observed (Eonset = 2.1 V vs. Fc/Fc+), with CO as the main reduction product. Bulk electrolysis reveals a turnover number (TON) of 12 (kobs = 1.5 s-1). In the presence of 1% water, an improvement in the catalytic activity is observed (TONCO = 21 and kobs = 2.0 s-1) and, additionally, formate was also detected (TONHCOO = 7). Spectroelectrochemical experiments allowed the identification of a metallocarboxylate (Ru-COO-) intermediate under anhydrous conditions, while in water, the partial labilization of the acpy- ligand was observed in the course of the catalytic cycle. The experimental data was combined with DFT calculations, allowing the proposal of a catalytic cycle. The results establish important relationships between selectivity, ligand structure and reaction conditions.

Abstract
Natural photosynthesis (NP) generates oxygen and carbohydrates from water and CO2 utilizing solar energy to nourish lives and balance CO2 levels. Following nature, artificial photosynthesis (AP), typically, overall water or CO2 splitting, produces fuels and chemicals from renewable energy. However, hydrogen evolution or CO2 reduction is inherently coupled with kinetically sluggish water oxidation, lowering efficiencies and raising safety concerns. Decoupled systems have thus emerged. In this review, we elaborate how decoupled artificial photosynthesis (DAP) evolves from NP and AP and unveil their distinct photoelectrochemical mechanisms in energy capture, transduction and conversion. Advances of AP and DAP are summarized in terms of photochemical (PC), photoelectrochemical (PEC), and photovoltaic-electrochemical (PV-EC) catalysis based on material and device design. The energy transduction process of DAP is emphasized. Challenges and perspectives on future researches are also presented.

Abstract
The mechanisms of how dyes and catalysts for solar-driven transformations such as water oxidation to form O2 work have been intensively investigated, however little is known about how their independent photophysical and chemical processes work together. The level of coordination between the dye and the catalyst in time determines the overall water oxidation system's efficiency. In this computational stochastic kinetics study, we have examined coordination and timing for a Ru-based dye-catalyst diad, [P2Ru(4-mebpy-4'-bimpy)Ru(tpy)(OH2)]4+, where P2 is 4,4'-bisphosphonato-2,2'-bipyridine, 4-mebpy-4'-bimpy is 4-(methylbipyridin-4'-yl)-N-benzimid-N'-pyridine, a bridging ligand, and tpy is (2,2':6',2''-terpyridine), taking advantage of the extensive data available for both dye and catalyst, and direct studies of the diads bound to a semiconductor surface. The simulation results for both ensembles of diads and single diads show that progress through the generally accepted water oxidation catalytic cycle is not controlled by the relatively low flux of solar irradiation or by charge or excitation losses, rather is gated by buildup of intermediates whose chemical reactions are not accelerated by photoexcitations. The stochastics of these thermal reactions govern the level of coordination between the dye and the catalyst. This suggests that catalytic efficiency can be improved in these multiphoton catalytic cycles by providing a means for photostimulation of all intermediates so that the catalytic rate is governed by charge injection under solar illumination alone.

Abstract
Prospects in light-driven water activation have prompted rapid progress in hydrogenation reactions. We describe a Ni2+ -N4 site built on carbon nitride for catalyzed semihydrogenation of alkynes, with water supplying protons, powered by visible-light irradiation. Importantly, the photocatalytic approach developed here enabled access to diverse deuterated alkenes in D2 O with excellent deuterium incorporation. Under visible-light irradiation, evolution of a four-coordinate Ni2+ species into a three-coordinate Ni+ species was spectroscopically identified. In combination with theoretical calculations, the photo-evolved Ni+ is posited as HO-Ni+ -N2 with an uncoordinated, protonated pyridinic nitrogen, formed by coupled Ni2+ reduction and water dissociation. The paired Ni-N prompts hydrogen liberation from water, and it renders desorption of alkene preferred over further hydrogenation to alkane, ensuring excellent semihydrogenation selectivity.

Abstract
Recent decades have seen increasing interest in developing highly active and selective electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The active site environment of cytochrome c oxidases (CcOs), including electrostatic and hydrogen-bonding interactions, plays an important role in promoting the selective conversion of dioxygen to water. Herein, we report the synthesis of three CoIII corroles, namely 1 (with a 10-phenyl ortho-trimethylammonium cationic group), 2 (with a 10-phenyl ortho-dimethylamine group) and 3 (with a 10-phenyl para-trimethylammonium cationic group) as well as their electrocatalytic ORR activities in both acidic and neutral solutions. We discovered that 1 is much more active and selective than 2 and 3 for the electrocatalytic four-electron ORR. Importantly, 1 showed ORR activities with half-wave potentials at E1/2 = 0.75 V versus RHE in 0.5 M H2SO4 solutions and at E1/2 = 0.70 V versus RHE in neutral 0.1 M phosphate buffer solutions. This work is significant for outlining a strategy to increase both the activity and selectivity of metal corroles for the electrocatalytic ORR by introducing cationic units.

Abstract
Molecular photoelectrochemical devices are hampered by electron-hole recombination after photoinduced electron transfer, causing losses in power conversion efficiency. Inspired by natural photosynthesis, we demonstrate the use of supramolecular machinery as a strategy to inhibit recombination through an organization of molecular components that enables unbinding of the final electron acceptor upon reduction. We show that preorganization of a macrocyclic electron acceptor to a dye yields a pseudorotaxane that undergoes a fast (completed within ~50 ps) 'ring-launching' event upon electron transfer from the dye to the macrocycle, releasing the anionic macrocycle and thus reducing charge recombination. Implementing this system into p-type dye-sensitized solar cells yielded a 16-fold and 5-fold increase in power conversion efficiency compared to devices based on the two control dyes that are unable to facilitate pseudorotaxane formation. The active repulsion of the anionic macrocycle with concomitant reformation of a neutral pseudorotaxane complex circumvents recombination at both the semiconductor-electrolyte and semiconductor-dye interfaces, enabling a threefold enhancement in hole lifetime.

Abstract
Syngas, a mixture of CO and H2 , is a high-priority intermediate for producing several commodity chemicals, e.g., ammonia, methanol, and synthetic hydrocarbon fuels. Accordingly, parallel sunlight-driven catalytic conversion of CO2 and protons to syngas is a key step toward a sustainable energy cycle. State-of-the-art catalytic systems and materials often fall short as application-oriented concurrent CO and H2 evolution requires challenging reaction conditions which can hamper stability, selectivity, and efficiency. Here a light-harvesting metal-organic framework hosting two molecular catalysts is engineered to yield colloidal, water-stable, versatile nanoreactors for photocatalytic syngas generation with highly controllable product ratios. In-depth fluorescence, X-ray, and microscopic studies paired with kinetic analysis show that the host delivers energy efficiently to active sites, conceptually yielding nanozymes. This unlocked sustained CO2 reduction and H2 evolution with benchmark turnover numbers and record incident photon conversions up to 36%, showcasing a highly active and durable all-in-one material toward application in solar energy-driven syngas generation.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanomaterials have been widely used in photocatalytic energy conversion and environmental remediation due to their advantages of low cost, chemical stability, and relatively high photo-activity. However, applications of TiO2 have been restricted in the ultraviolet range because of the wide band gap. Broadening the light absorption of TiO2 nanomaterials is an efficient way to improve the photocatalytic activity. Thus, black TiO2 with extended light response range in the visible light and even near infrared light has been extensively exploited as efficient photocatalysts in the last decade. This review represents an attempt to conclude the recent developments in black TiO2 nanomaterials synthesized by modified treatment, which presented different structure, morphological features, reduced band gap, and enhanced solar energy harvesting efficiency. Special emphasis has been given to the newly developed synthetic methods, porous black TiO2, and the approaches for further improving the photocatalytic activity of black TiO2. Various black TiO2, doped black TiO2, metal-loaded black TiO2 and black TiO2 heterojunction photocatalysts, and their photocatalytic applications and mechanisms in the field of energy and environment are summarized in this review, to provide useful insights and new ideas in the related field.

Abstract
Integrating a molecular catalyst with a light harvester into a photocatalyst is an effective strategy for solar light conversion. However, it is challenging to establish a crystallized framework with well-organized connections that favour charge separation and transfer. Herein, we report the heterogenization of a Salen metal complex molecular catalyst into a rigid covalent organic framework (COF) through covalent linkage with the light-harvesting unit of pyrene for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. The chemically conjugated bonds between the two units contribute to fast photogenerated electron transfer and thereby promote the proton reduction reaction. The Salen cobalt-based COF showed the best hydrogen evolution activity (1378 μmol g-1 h-1 ), which is superior to the previously reported nonnoble metal based COF photocatalysts. This work provides a strategy to construct atom-efficient photocatalysts by the heterogenization of molecular catalysts into covalent organic frameworks.

Near-infrared-featured broadband CO 2 reduction with water to hydrocarbons by surface plasmon. Nat Commun 2023; 14:221. [PMID: 36639386 PMCID: PMC9839746 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023-35860-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Imitating the natural photosynthesis to synthesize hydrocarbon fuels represents a viable strategy for solar-to-chemical energy conversion, where utilizing low-energy photons, especially near-infrared photons, has been the ultimate yet challenging aim to further improving conversion efficiency. Plasmonic metals have proven their ability in absorbing low-energy photons, however, it remains an obstacle in effectively coupling this energy into reactant molecules. Here we report the broadband plasmon-induced CO2 reduction reaction with water, which achieves a CH4 production rate of 0.55 mmol g-1 h-1 with 100% selectivity to hydrocarbon products under 400 mW cm-2 full-spectrum light illumination and an apparent quantum efficiency of 0.38% at 800 nm illumination. We find that the enhanced local electric field plays an irreplaceable role in efficient multiphoton absorption and selective energy transfer for such an excellent light-driven catalytic performance. This work paves the way to the technique for low-energy photon utilization.

Abstract
The presence of a carbide ligand in the active site of nitrogenases remains an unusual example of organometallic chemistry employed by a protein. Carbide incorporation into the MFe7S9C cluster involves complex biosynthesis, but analogous synthetic methodologies are limited. Herein, we present a new synthetic strategy for incorporating carbon based bridging ligands into iron-sulfur clusters. Starting from a halide precursor, a WFe3S3 cluster displaying three terminal alkyl ligands and an open Fe3 face was prepared. Oxidation results in loss of alkane and formation of a μ3-carbyne. Characterization of these clusters and mechanistic studies are presented.

Abstract
Metalloenzymes are remarkable for facilitating challenging redox transformations with high efficiency and selectivity. In the area of alternative energy, scientists aim to capture these properties in bioinspired and engineered biomolecular catalysts for the efficient and fast production of fuels from low-energy feedstocks such as water and carbon dioxide. In this short review, efforts to mimic biological catalysts for proton reduction and carbon dioxide reduction are highlighted. Two important recurring themes are the importance of the microenvironment of the catalyst active site and the key role of proton delivery to the active site in achieving desired reactivity. Perspectives on ongoing and future challenges are also provided.

Abstract
Molecular cobalt(III) complexes of bis-amidate-bis-alkoxide ligands, (Me4N)[CoIII(L1)] (1) and (Me4N)[CoIII(L2)] (2), are synthesized and assessed through a range of characterization techniques. Electrocatalytic water oxidation activity of the Co complexes in a 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution revealed a ligand-centered 2e-/1H+ transfer event at 0.99 V followed by catalytic water oxidation (WO) at an onset overpotential of 450 mV. By contrast, 2 reveals a ligand-based oxidation event at 0.9 V and a WO onset overpotential of 430 mV. Constant potential electrolysis study and rinse test experiments confirm the homogeneous nature of the Co complexes during WO. The mechanistic investigation further shows a pH-dependent change in the reaction pathway. On the one hand, below pH 7.5, two consecutive ligand-based oxidation events result in the formation of a CoIII(L2-)(OH) species, which, followed by a proton-coupled electron transfer reaction, generates a CoIV(L2-)(O) species that undergoes water nucleophilic attack to form the O-O bond. On the other hand, at higher pH, two ligand-based oxidation processes merge together and result in the formation of a CoIII(L2-)(OH) complex, which reacts with OH- to yield the O-O bond. The ligand-coordinated reaction intermediates involved in the WO reaction are thoroughly studied through an array of spectroscopic techniques, including UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A mononuclear CoIII(OH) complex supported by the one-electron oxidized ligand, [CoIII(L3-)(OH)]-, a formal CoIV(OH) complex, has been characterized, and the compound was shown to participate in the hydroxide rebound reaction, which is a functional mimic of Compound II of Cytochrome P450.

Abstract
Water oxidation is the bottleneck of water splitting, which is a promising strategy for hydrogen production. Therefore, it is significant to develop efficient water oxidation catalysts. Herein, electrochemical water oxidation catalyzed by three nickel complexes, namely [Ni(bptn)(H2O)](ClO4)2 (1), [Ni(mbptn)(CH3CN)](ClO4)2 (2), and [Ni(tmbptn)(H2O)](ClO4)2 (3) (bptn = 1,9-bis(2-pyridyl)-2,5,8-triazanonane, mbptn = 5-methyl-1,9-bis(2-pyridyl)-2,5,8-triazanonane, and tmbptn = 1,9-bis(2-pyridyl)-2,5,8-triazanonane), is studied under near-neutral condition (pH 9.0). Meanwhile, the homogeneous catalytic behaviors of the three mononuclear nickel complexes were investigated and confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical method. Complex 1 stabilized by a pentadentate ligand with three N-H fragments homogeneously catalyzes water oxidation to oxygen with the lowest onset overpotential. Complex 2 stabilized by a similar ligand with two N-H groups and one N-CH3 group exhibits relatively higher onset overpotential but higher catalytic current and turnover frequency. However, complex 3 with three N-CH3 coordination environment shows the highest onset overpotential and the highest catalytic current at higher potential. Comparison of catalytic behaviors and ligand structure of the three complexes reveals that the methyl group on the polypyridine amine ligand affects the water oxidation activity of the complexes obviously. The electronic effect of N-CH3 coordination environment leads to higher redox potential of the metal center and potential demand for water oxidation, while it leads to higher reaction activity of high-valent intermediates, which account for higher catalytic current and efficiency of water oxidation. This work reveals that electrocatalytic water oxidation performance of nickel complexes can be finely modulated by constructing suitable N-CH3 coordination.

Abstract
A semisynthetic electrocatalyst for carbon dioxide reduction to carbon monoxide in water is reported. Cobalt microperoxidase-11 (CoMP11-Ac) is shown to reduce CO2 to CO with a turnover number of up to 32,000 and a selectivity of up to 88:5 CO:H2. Higher selectivity for CO production is favored by a less cathodic applied potential and use of a higher pK a buffer. A mechanistic hypothesis is presented in which avoiding the formation and protonation of a formal Co(I) species favors CO production. These results demonstrate how tuning reaction conditions impact reactivity toward CO2 reduction for a biocatalyst previously developed for H2 production.

Abstract
Water splitting, producing of oxygen, and hydrogen molecules, is an essential reaction for clean energy resources and is one of the challenging reactions for artificial photosynthesis. The Mn4Ca cluster in photosystem II (PS-II) is responsible for water oxidation in natural photosynthesis. Due to this, water oxidation reaction by Mn coordination compounds is vital for mimicking the active core of the oxygen-evolving complex in PS-II. Here, a new dinuclear Mn(II)-semicarbohydrazone coordination compound, [Mn(HL)(µ-N3)Cl]2 (1), was synthesized and characterized by various methods. The structure of compound 1 was determined by single crystal X-ray analysis, which revealed the Mn(II) ions have distorted octahedral geometry as (MnN4OCl). This geometry is created by coordinating of oxygen and two nitrogen donor atoms from semicarbohydrazone ligand, two nitrogen atoms from azide bridges, and chloride anion. Compound 1 was used as a catalyst for electrochemical water oxidation, and the surface of the electrode after the reaction was investigated by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, and powder X-ray diffraction analyses. Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) experiments revealed that the electrode containing 1 shows high activity for chemical water oxidation with an electrochemical overpotential as low as 377 mV. Although our findings showed that the carbon paste electrode in the presence of 1 is an efficient electrode for water oxidation, it could not withstand water oxidation catalysis under bulk electrolysis and finally converted to Mn oxide nanoparticles which were active for water oxidation along with compound 1.

Abstract
In this project, we have investigated the possibility of mimicking the natural photosynthesis, as well as sensing and adsorption application of aluminum decorated graphitic C3N4 (Al-g-C3N4) QDs (toward some air pollutants containing CO, CO2, and SO2). The results of the potential energy surface (PES) studies show that in all three adsorption processes, the energy changes are negative (-10.70 kcal mol-1, -16.81 kcal mol-1, and -79.97 kcal mol-1 for CO, CO2, and SO2 gasses, respectively). Thus, all of the adsorption processes (mainly SO2) are spontaneous. Moreover, the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) investigations indicate that the Al-g-C3N4 QD could be used as a suitable semiconductor sensor for detection of CO, and CO2 (as carbon oxides) in one hand, and SO2 gaseous species on the other hand. Finally, the results reveal that those QDs could be applied for artificial photosynthesis (in presence of CO2; Δμh-e = 1.43 V), and for water splitting process for the H2 generation (Δμh-e = 1.23 V) as a clean fuel for near future.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide cofactor (NAD(P)H) is regarded as an important energy carrier and charge transfer mediator. Enzyme-catalyzed NADPH production in natural photosynthesis proceeds via a hydride transfer mechanism. Selective and effective regeneration of NAD(P)H from its oxidized form by artificial catalysts remains challenging due to the formation of byproducts. Herein, electrocatalytic NADH regeneration and the reaction mechanism on metal and carbon electrodes are studied. We find that the selectivity of bioactive 1,4-NADH is relatively high on Cu, Fe, and Co electrodes without forming commonly reported NAD2 byproducts. In contrast, more NAD2 side product is formed with the carbon electrode. ADP-ribose is confirmed to be a side product caused by the fragmentation reaction of NAD+. Based on H/D isotope effects and electron paramagnetic resonance analysis, it is proposed that the formation of NADH on these metal electrodes proceeds via a hydrogen atom-coupled electron transfer (HadCET) mechanism, in contrast to the direct electron-transfer and NAD˙ radical pathway on carbon electrodes, which leads to more by-product, NAD2. This work sheds light on the mechanism of electrocatalytic NADH regeneration, which is different from biocatalysis.
