Abstract
Hybrid water electrolysis (HWE) is a promising pathway for the simultaneous production of high-value chemicals and clean H2 fuel. Unlike conventional electrochemical water splitting, which relies on the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), HWE involves the anodic oxidation reaction (AOR). The AORs facilitate the conversion of organic or inorganic compounds at the anode into valuable chemicals, while the cathode carries out the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) to produce H2. Recent literature has witnessed a surge in papers investigating various AORs with organic and inorganic substrates using a series of transition metal-based catalysts. Over the past two decades, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have garnered significant attention for their exceptional performance in electrochemical water splitting. These catalysts possess distinct attributes such as highly porous architectures, customizable morphologies, open facets, high electrochemical surface areas, improved electron transport, and accessible catalytic sites. While MOFs have demonstrated efficiency in electrochemical water splitting, their application in hybrid water electrolysis has only recently been explored. In recent years, a series of articles have been published; yet there is no comprehensive article summarizing MOFs for hybrid water electrolysis. This article aims to fill this gap by delving into the recent progress in MOFs specifically tailored for hybrid water electrolysis. In this article, we systematically discuss the structure-property-performance relationships of various MOFs utilized in hybrid water electrolysis, supported by pioneering examples. We explore how the structure, morphology, and electronic properties of MOFs impact their performance in hybrid water electrolysis, with particular emphasis on value-added chemical generation, H2 production, potential improvement, conversion efficiency, selectivity, faradaic efficiency, and their potential for industrial-scale applications. Furthermore, we address future advancements and challenges in this field, providing insights into the prospects and challenges associated with the continued development and deployment of MOFs for hybrid water electrolysis.

From Simple Palladium(II) Monomers to 2D Heterometallic Sodium-Palladium(II) Coordination Networks with 2-Halonicotinates. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:4111-4122. [PMID: 38284025 PMCID: PMC10809674 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c09497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
The 2D heterometallic sodium-palladium(II) coordination polymers with 2-halonicotinates [2-chloropyridine-3-carboxylate (2-chloronicotinate), 2-Clnic- and 2-bromopyridine-3-carboxylate (2-bromonicotinate), 2-Brnic-], {[Na2(H2O)2(μ-H2O)4PdCl2(μ-2-Clnic-N:O')2]}n (1), and {[Na2(H2O)2(μ-H2O)4PdBr2(μ-2-Brnic-N:O')2]·2H2O}n (2) were prepared in aqueous solutions under the presence of NaHCO3, while palladium(II) monomers with the neutral 2-chloronicotinic and 2-bromonicotinic acid ligands, [PdCl2(2-ClnicH-N)2]·2DMF (3) and [PdCl2(2-BrnicH-N)2]·2DMF (4), were prepared in DMF/water mixtures (DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide). The zigzag chains of water-bridged sodium ions are in turn bridged by [PdCl2(2-Clnic)2]2- moieties in 1 or by [PdBr2(2-Brnic)2]2- moieties in 2, leading to the formation of the infinite 2D coordination networks of 1 or 2. The DFT calculations showed the halosubstituents type (Cl vs Br) does not have an influence on the formation of either trans or cis isomers. The trans isomers were found in all reported compounds; being more stable for about 10 to 15 kJ mol-1. The 2D coordination networks 1 and 2 are more stabilized by the formation of Na-Ocarboxylate bonds, comparing to the stabilization of palladium(II) monomers 3 and 4 by hydrogen-bonding with DMF molecules. The difference in DFT calculated energy stabilization for 1 and 2 is ascribed to the type of halosubstituents and to the presence/absence of lattice water molecules in 1 and 2. The compounds show no antibacterial activity toward reference strains of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and no antiproliferative activity toward bladder (T24) and lung (A549) cancer cell lines.

Abstract
Atmospheric water harvesting is a promising approach for obtaining freshwater resources, but achieving high levels of light absorption, hygroscopic capacity, and desorption efficiency simultaneously remains a challenge. In this study, we developed an innovative atmospheric water harvester that incorporates a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogel and a polydopamine/polypyrrole-modified 3D raised-fabric. The interlacing structure and polydopamine/polypyrrole synergistically enhance the harvester's photothermal conversion capability, while the hydrogel-modified raised-fabric with its increased pore structure and high specific surface area ensures effective contact between the internal adsorbent and external moisture, thereby improving moisture capture and storage capacity. Our results indicate that the hydrogel-modified 3D raised-fabric has excellent photothermal conversion performance, as evidenced by its rapid temperature rise to 75.9 °C under 1 sun light intensity, which effectively promotes water evaporation and harvesting. Furthermore, the 3D raised-fabric exhibits exceptional water absorption (3.1 g g-1, RH 90%) and water desorption (1.75 kg m-2h-1, 1 sun) properties. Overall, the 3D raised-fabric with its integrated photothermal, hygroscopic, and hydrophobic properties can effectively collect water under low humidity conditions, making it a promising solution for water scarcity issues.

Abstract
Developing inexpensive electrocatalysts with high activity and stability is of great value for overall water splitting. In this work, we designed a series of 3d-4f (FeMnCe)-trimetallic MOF-74 with different ratios of 3d- and 4f-metal centers. Among them, FeMn6Ce0.5-MOF-74/NF exhibited the best electrocatalytic performance for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in an alkaline solution. It only requires a low overpotential of 281 mV@100 mA cm-2 for OER and 186 mV@-10 mA cm-2 for HER in 1 M KOH. With FeMn6Ce0.5-MOF-74/NF as the anode and cathode in the overall water splitting system, only 1.65 V is needed to deliver a current density of 10 mA cm-2. In particular, for the as-fabricated FeMn6Ce0.5-MOF-74/NF||Pt/C cell unit, only 1.40 V is needed to achieve 10 mA cm-2. Therefore, the successful design of 3d-4f mixed-metallic MOF-74 provides a new viewpoint to develop highly efficient non-precious metal electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The efficient production of ammonia (NH3) from dinitrogen (N2) and water (H2O) using renewable energy is an important step on the roadmap to the ammonia economy. The productivity of this conversion hinges on the design and development of new active catalysts. In the wide scope of materials that have been examined as catalysts for the photo- and electro-driven reduction of N2 to NH3, functional metal-organic framework (MOF) catalysts exhibit unique properties and appealing features. By elucidating their structural and spectroscopic properties and linking this to the observed activity of MOF-based catalysts, valuable information can be gathered to inspire new generations of advanced catalysts to produce green NH3. NH3 is also a surrogate for the hydrogen (H2) economy, and the potential application of MOFs for the practical and effective capture, safe storage, and transport of NH3 is also discussed. This Perspective analyzes the contribution that MOFs can make toward the ammonia economy.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with diverse composition, tunable structure, and unique physicochemical properties have emerged as promising materials in various fields. The tunable pore structure, abundant active sites, and ultrahigh specific surface area can facilitate mass transport and provide outstanding capacity, making MOFs an ideal active material for electrochemical energy storage and conversion. However, the poor electrical conductivity of pristine MOFs severely limits their applications in electrochemistry. Developing conductive MOFs has proved to be an effective solution to this problem. This review focuses on the design and synthesis of conductive MOF composites with judiciously chosen conducting materials, pristine MOFs, and assembly methods, as well as the preparation of intrinsically conductive MOFs based on building 2D π-conjugated structures, introducing mixed-valence metal ions/redox-active ligands, designing π-π stacked pathways, and constructing infinite metal-sulfur chains (-M-S-)∞ . Furthermore, recent progress and challenges of conductive MOFs for energy storage and conversion (supercapacitors, Li-ion batteries, Li-S batteries, and electrochemical water splitting) are summarized.

Abstract
Nanoscale pyrazolate-based coordination polymers (CPs) are becoming increasingly popular as electrocatalysts owing to their customizable compositions and structures. However, using them for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is highly challenging due to their unsatisfactory catalytic efficiency and relatively low stability. Herein, a simple one-step solvothermal process was employed for the fabrication of polycrystalline nickel-pyrazolate [Ni(Pz)] with an unusual lamellar nanorod-assembled microsphere morphology for the first time using ethanol as a green organic solvent via controlling other physical parameters. Meanwhile, the Ni(Pz) structure and morphology are investigated to derive its formation process following the different monomeric feed ratios relying on the metal/ligand interactions of CP. Shaping the Ni(Pz) electrocatalyst in well-oriented lamellar nanorod-assembled microspheres brings the advantage of porosity and high specific surface area, which expedites mass/charge transport and contact with the electrolyte as well as creates less tortuous pathways for charge distribution, thus improving the charge homogeneity. These high-class structural features and polycrystalline nature of Ni(Pz)-E-PVP facilitate amazing catalytic OER activity with a low overpotential of 290 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and a Tafel slope of only 94 mV dec-1 beyond the yardstick material (i.e., RuO2) in alkaline solution. A suite of measurements, entailing X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations, suggest that the rich Ni-N4 moieties in Ni(Pz)-E-PVP are central species providing adsorption sites for OER intermediates. This facile protocol is prophesied to commence the imminent development of noble metal-free, effective, and low-priced electrocatalysts for OER.

Abstract
By annealing an Fe(III)-coordination compound (Fe-CC), [FeCl3(Hbta)2] (Hbta = benzotriazole) in the presence of a carbon nanotube precursor (PCNT) template, an Fe4N/Fe3N/Fe/CNT heterostructure was successfully synthesized without an extra nitrogen source. The decomposition of the Hbta in Fe-CC under high-temperature annealing can produce carbon sheets and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and the presence of CNTs can alleviate the stacking of thein situ-generated carbon materials. Meanwhile, iron nitride nanoparticles (NPs) can be anchored on the carbon sheets, and the anchoring effect efficiently prevents the agglomeration of NPs and increases the amount of active catalytic sites for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Fe4N/Fe3N/Fe/CNT shows an excellent OER activity with a Tafel slope of 63 mV dec-1as well as overpotentials of 121 (η10) and 275 mV (η100) at 10 and 100 mA cm-2, respectively - far exceeding commercial RuO2and other catalysts. Density functional theory calculations show that the excellent OER performance of Fe4N/Fe3N/Fe/CNT is associated with the Fe4N/Fe3N heterojunction, which can improve the electron conductivity and boost the electron transfer from N to Fe. The Fe4N/Fe3N/Fe/CNT catalyst exhibits long-term OER activity during 100 h of electrolysis at 20 mA cm-2. This is related to the dual coatings of thein situ-generated thin carbon shell and few-layered rGO on the surface of the iron nitride NPs, which can protect the fast leaching of iron nitride during the OER process. Furthermore, the effects of the annealing temperature, the PCNT template and the heating rate on the calcined products were investigated.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) display promising potential due to their exquisite structural advantages. Carboxylate-based MOFs, such as MIL-53 structures, attract a lot of attention among MOF families because of their remarkable stability in water and even alkaline condition. Hence, the delicate hierarchical microstructure is constructed by introducing MoO42- into NH2-MIL-53(NiFe) using a straightforward solvothermal strategy. The NiFeMo-MOF/NF electrode manifests a superior OER performance, producing an overpotential of 239 mV at 50 mA cm-2 and a decent Tafel slope of 87.0 mV dec-1. Furthermore, in a typical electrodeposition equipment, NiFeMo-MOF/NF is applied as the working electrode and the composite electrode named as (M) Ni-NiOOH/NF is generated by electrodeposition and electrooxidation process to assess HER performance, producing an overpotential of 119 mV at 50 mA cm-2 and a decent Tafel slope of 58.3 mV dec-1. The integrated electrolysis device delivers an extraordinarily low cell voltage of 1.50 V at 10 mA cm-2 while applying NiFeMo-MOF/NF as the anode, (M)Ni-NiOOH/NF as the cathode for overall water splitting, exceeding the noble RuO2/NF||Pt-C/NF (1.60 V@10 mA cm-2). This study provides a promising design strategy for future electrolysis catalysts.

For efficient electrocatalytic water-splitting, developing a nonprecious-metal-based stable and highly active material is the most challenging task. In this paper, we have devised a synthesis strategy for a hybrid catalyst composed of molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) and a Zr-based metal-organic framework (MOF) (UiO-66) via the solvothermal process. Synergistic effects between Mo2C and UiO-66 lead to a decrease in the hydrogen adsorption energy on the catalysts, and Mo2C/UiO-66 hybrids offer excellent catalytic activity in an alkaline environment for water-splitting. Particularly, the optimized Mo2C/UiO-66 hybrid, termed MCU-2 with 50:50 wt % of both components, displayed the best catalytic performance for both hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions (HER/OER). It offered a small overpotential of 174.1 mV to attain a current density of 10 mA/cm2 and a Tafel plot value of 147 mV/dec for HER. It also offered a low overpotential of around 180 mV to attain a current density of 20 mA/cm2 and a Tafel plot value of 134 mV/dec for OER. Additionally, the catalyst was stable for over 24 h and ∼1000 cycles with a very minute shift in performance, and the electrolyzer indicates that a potential of ∼1.3 V is required to reach 10 mA/cm2 current density. It can be inferred from the results that the Mo2C/UiO-66 hybrid is a promising candidate as a nonexpensive and active catalyst for overall electrocatalytic water-splitting as the devised catalyst exhibits enhanced kinetics for both OER and HER, a more exposed surface area, faster electron transport, and enhanced diffusion of the electrolyte.

Abstract
Hydrogen is a clean and sustainable energy carrier, which is considered a promising alternative for fossil fuels to solve the global energy crisis and respond to climate change. Social concerns on its safe storage promote continuous exploration of alternatives to traditional storage methods. In this case, chemical hydrogen storage materials initiate plentiful research with special attention to the design of heterogeneous catalysts that can enhance efficient and highly selective hydrogen production. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a kind of unique crystalline porous materials featuring highly ordered porosities and tailorable structures, can provide various active sites (i.e., metal nodes, functional linkers, and defects) for heterogeneous catalysis. Furthermore, the easy construction of active sites in highly ordered MOFs, which can work as plate for the delicate active site engineering, make them ideal candidates for a variety of heterogeneous catalysts including chemocatalytic hydrogen production. This review concentrates on the application of MOFs as heterogeneous catalysts or catalyst supports in chemocatalytic hydrogen production. Recent progresses of MOFs as catalysts for chemocatalytic hydrogen production are comprehensively summarized. The research methods, mechanism analyses, and prospects of MOFs in this field are discussed. The challenges in future industrial applications of MOFs as catalysts for hydrogen production are proposed.
