Abstract
Complete understanding of catalytic cycles is required to advance the design of water oxidation catalysts, but it is difficult to attain, due to the complex factors governing their reactivity and stability. In this study, we investigate the regeneration and degradation pathways of the highly active biomimetic water oxidation catalyst [Mn3+ 2Mn4+ 2V4O17(OAc)3]3-, thereby completing its catalytic cycle. Beginning with the deactivated species [Mn3+ 4V4O17(OAc)2]4- left over after O2 evolution, we scrutinize a network of reaction intermediates belonging to two alternative water oxidation cycles. We find that catalyst regeneration to the activated species [Mn4+ 4V4O17(OAc)2(OH)(H2O)]- proceeds via oxidation of each Mn center, with one water ligand being bound during the first oxidation step and a second water ligand being bound and deprotonated during the final oxidation step. ΔΔG values for this last oxidation are consistent with previous experimental results, while regeneration within an alternative catalytic cycle was found to be thermodynamically unfavorable. Extensive in silico sampling of catalyst structures also revealed two degradation processes: cubane opening and ligand dissociation, both of which have low barriers at highly reduced states of the catalyst due to the presence of Jahn-Teller effects. These mechanistic insights are expected to spur the development of more efficient and stable Mn cubane water oxidation catalysts.

Abstract
Four new functionalized Ni(II) dithiocarbamate complexes of the formula [Ni(Lx)2] (1-4) (L1 = N-methylthiophene-N-3-pyridylmethyl dithiocarbamate, L2 = N-methylthiophene-N-4-pyridylmethyl dithiocarbamate, L3 = N-benzyl-N-3-pyridylmethyl dithiocarbamate, and L4 = N-benzyl-N-4-pyridylmethyl dithiocarbamate) have been synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-vis, and 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopic techniques. The solid-state structure of complex 1 has also been determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Single crystal X-ray analysis revealed a monomeric centrosymmetric structure for complex 1 in which two dithiocarbamate ligands are bonded to the Ni(II) metal ion in a S^S chelating mode resulting in a square planar geometry around the nickel center. These complexes are immobilized on activated carbon cloth (CC) and their electrocatalytic performances for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) have been investigated in aqueous alkaline solution. All the complexes act as pre-catalysts for the OER and undergo electrochemical anodic activation to form Ni(O)OH active catalysts. Spectroscopic and electrochemical characterization revealed the existence of the interface of molecular complex/Ni(O)OH, which acts as the real catalyst for the OER. The active catalyst obtained from complex 2 showed the best OER activity achieving 10 mA cm-2 current density at an overpotential of 330 mV in 1.0 M aqueous KOH solution.

Abstract
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is an important half-reaction involved in many electrochemical applications, such as water splitting and rechargeable metal-air batteries. However, the sluggish kinetics of its four-electron transfer process becomes a bottleneck to the performance enhancement. Thus, rational design of electrocatalysts for OER based on thorough understanding of mechanisms and structure-activity relationship is of vital significance. This review begins with the introduction of OER mechanisms which include conventional adsorbate evolution mechanism and lattice-oxygen-mediated mechanism. The reaction pathways and related intermediates are discussed in detail, and several descriptors which greatly assist in catalyst screen and optimization are summarized. Some important parameters suggested as measurement criteria for OER are also mentioned and discussed. Then, recent developments and breakthroughs in experimental achievements on transition metal-based OER electrocatalysts are reviewed to reveal the novel design principles. Finally, some perspectives and future directions are proposed for further catalytic performance enhancement and deeper understanding of catalyst design. It is believed that iterative improvements based on the understanding of mechanisms and fundamental design principles are essential to realize the applications of efficient transition metal-based OER electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy storage and conversion technologies.

Abstract
Direct observation of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) on catalyst surface may significantly advance the mechanistic understanding of OER catalysis. Here, we report the first real-time nanoscale observation of chemical OER on Mn2O3 nanocatalyst surface using an in situ liquid holder in a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The oxygen evolution process can be directly visualized from the development of oxygen nanobubbles around nanocatalysts. The high spatial and temporal resolution further enables us to unravel the real-time formation of a surface layer on Mn2O3, whose thickness oscillation reflects a partially reversible surface restructuring relevant to OER catalysis. Ex situ atomic-resolution TEM on the residual surface layer after OER reveals its amorphous nature with reduced Mn valence and oxygen coordination. Besides shedding light on the dynamic OER catalysis, our results also demonstrate a powerful strategy combining in situ and ex situ TEM for investigating various chemical reaction mechanisms in liquid.

Abstract
In neutral medium (pH 7.0) [RuIIIRuII(µ-CO3)4(OH)]4− undergoes one electron oxidation to form [RuIIIRuIII(µ-CO3)4(OH)2]4− at an E1/2 of 0.85 V vs. NHE followed by electro-catalytic water oxidation at a potential ≥1.5 V. When the same electrochemical measurements are performed in bicarbonate medium (pH 8.3), the complex first undergoes one electron oxidation at an Epa of 0.86 V to form [RuIIIRuIII(µ-CO3)4(OH)2]4−. This complex further undergoes two step one electron oxidations to form RuIVRuIII and RuIVRuIV species at potentials (Epa) 1.18 and 1.35 V, respectively. The RuIVRuIII and RuIVRuIV species in bicarbonate solutions are [RuIVRuIII(µ-CO3)4(OH)(CO3)]4− and [RuIVRuIV(µ-CO3)4(O)(CO3)]4− based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The formation of HCO4− in the course of the oxidation has been demonstrated by DFT. The catalyst acts as homogeneous water oxidation catalyst, and after long term chronoamperometry, the absorption spectra does not change significantly. Each step has been found to follow a proton coupled electron transfer process (PCET) as obtained from the pH dependent studies. The catalytic current is found to follow linear relation with the concentration of the catalyst and bicarbonate. Thus, bicarbonate is involved in the catalytic process that is also evident from the generation of higher oxidation peaks in cyclic voltammetry. The detailed mechanism has been derived by DFT. A catalyst with no organic ligands has the advantage of long-time stability.

Abstract
Cryptomelane (α-(K)MnO2 ) powders were synthesized by different methods leading to only slight differences in their bulk crystal structure and chemical composition, while the BET surface area and the crystallite size differed significantly. Their performance in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) covered a wide range and their sequence of increasing activity differed when electrocatalysis in alkaline electrolyte and chemical water oxidation using Ce4+ were compared. The decisive factors that explain this difference were identified in the catalysts' microstructure. Chemical water oxidation activity is substantially governed by the exposed surface area, while the electrocatalytic activity is determined largely by the electric conductivity, which was found to correlate with the particle morphology in terms of needle length and aspect ratio in this sample series. This correlation is rather explained by an improved conductivity due to longer needles than by structure sensitivity as was supported by reference experiments using H2 O2 decomposition and carbon black as additive. The most active catalyst R-cryptomelane reached a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at a potential 1.73 V without, and at 1.71 V in the presence of carbon black. The improvement was significantly higher for the catalyst with lower initial activity. However, the materials showed a disappointing catalytic stability during alkaline electrochemical OER, whereas the crystal structure was found to be stable at working conditions.

Abstract
Abstract
In the last decades several different catalysts for the electrochemical water splitting reaction have been designed and tested. In so-called benchmark papers they are compared with respect to their efficiency and activity. In order to relate the different catalyst to each other the definition of well-defined procedures is required. Two different methods are mainly used: Either the normalization with respect to the geometric surface area or to the catalyst loading. Most often only one of these values is available for a sample and the other one cannot be estimated easily. One approach in electrocatalysis is to determine the Helmholtz double layer capacitance (DLC) and deduce the electrochemical active surface area (ECSA). The DLC can be obtained from two different methods, either using differential capacitance measurement (DCM) or impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The second value needed for the calculation of the ECSA is the specific capacitance, which is the capacitance for a perfectly flat surface of given catalyst material. Here, we present the determination of the different capacitance values using manganese oxide as the exemplary model for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). We determine the capacitance by DCM and EIS to calculate the ECSA using literature values for the specific capacitance. The obtained values are comparable from the two methods, but are much larger than the surface areas obtained by atomic force microscopy. Therefore, we consider the possibility of using the measured AFM area together with the Helmholtz capacitance to determine the specific capacitances for this material class. The comparison of these results with literature values illustrates the actual limits of the ECSA method, which will be discussed in this paper.

Abstract
For the first time, the manganese gallide (MnGa4 ) served as an intermetallic precursor, which upon in situ electroconversion in alkaline media produced high-performance and long-term-stable MnOx -based electrocatalysts for water oxidation. Unexpectedly, its electrocorrosion (with the concomitant loss of Ga) leads simultaneously to three crystalline types of MnOx minerals with distinct structures and induced defects: birnessite δ-MnO2 , feitknechtite β-MnOOH, and hausmannite α-Mn3 O4 . The abundance and intrinsic stabilization of MnIII /MnIV active sites in the three MnOx phases explains the superior efficiency and durability of the system for electrocatalytic water oxidation. After electrophoretic deposition of the MnGa4 precursor on conductive nickel foam (NF), a low overpotential of 291 mV, comparable to that of precious-metal-based catalysts, could be achieved at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 with a durability of more than five days.

Abstract
Recently, it has been great efforts to synthesize an efficient water-oxidizing catalyst. However, to find the true catalyst in the harsh conditions of the water-oxidation reaction is an open area in science. Herein, we showed that corrosion of some simple manganese salts, MnCO3, MnWO4, Mn3(PO4)2 · 3H2O, and Mn(VO3)2 · xH2O, under the water-electrolysis conditions at pH = 6.3, gives an amorphous manganese oxide. This conversion was studied with X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), as well as, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), spectroelectrochemistry and electrochemistry methods. When using as a water-oxidizing catalyst, such results are important to display that long-term water oxidation can change the nature of the manganese salts.

Abstract
The kinetics and mechanisms of thermal and photochemical oxidation of water with homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, including conversion from homogeneous to heterogeneous catalysts in the course of water oxidation, are discussed in this review article. Molecular and homogeneous catalysts have the advantage to clarify the catalytic mechanisms by detecting active intermediates in catalytic water oxidation. On the other hand, heterogeneous nanoparticle catalysts have advantages for practical applications due to high catalytic activity, robustness and easier separation of catalysts by filtration as compared with molecular homogeneous precursors. Ligand oxidation of homogeneous catalysts sometimes results in the dissociation of ligands to form nanoparticles, which act as much more efficient catalysts for water oxidation. Since it is quite difficult to identify active intermediates on the heterogeneous catalyst surface, the mechanism of water oxidation has hardly been clarified under heterogeneous catalytic conditions. This review focuses on the kinetics and mechanisms of catalytic water oxidation with homogeneous catalysts, which may be converted to heterogeneous nanoparticle catalysts depending on various reaction conditions.

Abstract
The development of nonprecious catalysts for water splitting into hydrogen and oxygen is one of the major challenges to meet future sustainable fuel demand. Herein, thin layers of manganese oxide nanosheets supported on nitrogen-functionalized carbon nanotubes (NCNTs) were formed by the treatment of NCNTs dispersed in aqueous solutions of KMnO4 or CsMnO4 under reflux or under hydrothermal (HT) conditions and used as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media. The samples were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. Our results show that the NCNTs treated under reflux were covered by partly amorphous and birnessite-type manganese oxides, while predominantly crystalline birnessite manganese oxide was observed for the hydrothermally treated samples. The latter showed, depending on the temperature during synthesis, an electrocatalytically favorable reduction from birnessite-type MnO2 to γ-MnOOH. OER activity measurements revealed a decrease of the overpotential for the OER at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 from 1.70 VRHE for the bare NCNTs to 1.64 VRHE for the samples treated under reflux in the presence of KMnO4. The hydrothermally treated samples afforded the same current density at a lower potential of 1.60 VRHE and a Tafel slope of 75 mV dec-1, suggesting that the higher OER activity is due to γ-MnOOH formation. Oxidative deposition under reflux conditions using CsMnO4 along with mild HT treatment using KMnO4, and low manganese loadings in both cases, were identified as the most suitable synthetic routes to obtain highly active MnO x /NCNT catalysts for electrochemical water oxidation.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
Exploring new materials with high efficiency and durability is the major requirement in the field of sustainable energy conversion and storage systems. Numerous techniques have been developed in last three decades to enhance the efficiency of the catalyst systems, control over the composition, structure, surface area, pore size, and moreover morphology of the particles. In this respect, metal organic framework (MOF) derived catalysts are emerged as the finest materials with tunable properties and activities for the energy conversion and storage. Recently, several nano- or microstructures of metal oxides, chalcogenides, phosphides, nitrides, carbides, alloys, carbon materials, or their hybrids are explored for the electrochemical energy conversion like oxygen evolution, hydrogen evolution, oxygen reduction, or battery materials. Interest on the efficient energy storage system is also growing looking at the practical applications. Though, several reviews are available on the synthesis and application of MOF and MOF derived materials, their applications for the electrochemical energy conversion and storage is totally a new field of research and developed recently. This review focuses on the systematic design of the materials from MOF and control over their inherent properties to enhance the electrochemical performances.

Abstract
The development of inexpensive, earth abundant, and bioinspired oxygen evolution electrocatalysts that are easily accessible and scalable is a principal requirement with regard to the feasibility of water splitting for large-scale chemical energy storage. A unique, versatile, and scalable approach has been developed to fabricate manganese oxide films from single layers to multilayers with a controlled thickness and high reproducibility. The produced MnOx films are composed of small nanostructures that are assembled closely in the form of porous sponge-like layers. The films were investigated for the electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline media and demonstrate a remarkable activity as well as a superior stability of over 60 h. To elucidate the catalytically active species, as well as the striking structural characteristics, the films were further examined in depth by using SEM, TEM, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, as well as quasi in situ extended X-ray absorption fine structure and X-ray absorption near edge structure analysis. The MnOx catalyst films excel because of a favorably high fraction of Mn3+ ions that are retained even after operation at oxidizing potentials. Upon exposure to oxidizing potentials in strongly alkaline aqueous electrolyte, the catalyst material maintains its structural integrity at the nanostructural, morphological, and atomic level.

Abstract
Exploring sustainable and efficient electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is necessary for the development of fuel cells and metal-air batteries. Herein, we report a bimetal Fe/Mn-N-C material composed of spinel MnFe2O4/metallic Fe hybrid nanoparticles encapsulated in N-doped mesoporous hollow carbon nanospheres as an excellent bifunctional ORR/OER electrocatalyst in alkaline electrolyte. The Fe/Mn-N-C catalyst is synthesized via pyrolysis of bimetal ion-incorporated polydopamine nanospheres and shows impressive ORR electrocatalytic activity superior to Pt/C and good OER activity close to RuO2 catalyst in alkaline environment. When tested in Zn-air battery, the Fe/Mn-N-C catalyst demonstrates excellent ultimate performance including power density, durability, and cycling. This work reports the bimetal Fe/Mn-N-C as a highly efficient bifunctional electrocatalyst and may afford useful insights into the design of sustainable transition-metal-based high-performance electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The highly efficient and cheap non-Pt-based electrocatalysts such as transition-based catalysts prepared via facile methods for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are desirable for large-scale practical industry applications in energy conversion and storage systems. Herein, we report a straightforward top-down synthesis of monodisperse ultrasmall manganese-doped multimetallic (ZnGe) oxysulfide nanoparticles (NPs) as an efficient ORR electrocatalyst by simple ultrasonic treatment of the Mn-doped Zn-Ge-S chalcogenidometalate crystal precursors in H2O/EtOH for only 1 h at room temperature. Thus obtained ultrasmall monodisperse Mn-doped oxysulfide NPs with ultralow Mn loading level (3.92 wt %) not only exhibit comparable onset and half-wave potential (0.92 and 0.86 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode, respectively) to the commercial 20 wt % Pt/C but also exceptionally high metal mass activity (189 mA/mg at 0.8 V) and good methanol tolerance. A combination of transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electrochemical analysis demonstrated that the homogenous distribution of a large amount of Mn(III) on the surface of NPs mainly accounts for the high ORR activity. We believe that this simple synthesis of Mn-doped multimetallic (ZnGe) oxysulfide NPs derived from chalcogenidometalates will open a new route to explore the utilization of discrete-cluster-based chalcogenidometalates as novel non-Pt electrocatalysts for energy applications and provide a facile way to realize the effective reduction of the amount of catalyst while keeping desired catalytic performances.

Abstract
The strikingly high catalytic performance and stability of manganese substituted cobalt oxide spinel (MnxCo3-xO4) over pristine cobalt oxide spinel (Co3O4) for the alkaline electrochemical water oxidation is reported. The different role of cations could be uncovered along with the detection of drastic surface-structural changes during the catalysis using spectroscopic and microscopic methods.

Abstract
The development of manganese-based water oxidation electrocatalysts is desirable for the production of solar fuels, as manganese is earth-abundant, inexpensive, non-toxic, and has been employed by the Photosystem II in nature for a billion years. Herein, we directly constructed a 3 D nanoarchitectured turbostratic δ-MnOx on carbon nanotube-modified nickel foam (MnOx /CNT/NF) by electrodeposition and a subsequent annealing process. The MnOx /CNT/NF electrode gives a benchmark catalytic current density (10 mA cm-2 ) at an overpotential (η) of 270 mV under alkaline conditions. A steady current density of 19 mA cm-2 is obtained during electrolysis at 1.53 V for 1.0 h. To the best of our knowledge, this work represents the most efficient manganese-oxide-based water oxidation electrode and demonstrates that manganese oxides, as a structural and functional model of oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) in Photosystem II, can also become comparable to those of most Ni- and Co-based catalysts.

Abstract
Multi-shelled hollow spheres of cobalt manganese oxides (CMOs) deposited on Ni foam exhibited superior alkaline electrochemical water oxidation activity and surpassed those of bulk CMO and commercial noble metal-based catalysts. A higher amount of cobalt in the spinel structure resulted in the transformation of the tetragonal to the cubic phase with a decrease in the overpotential of oxygen evolution.

Abstract
Pure phase manganese oxides have been widely studied as water oxidation catalysts, but further improvement of their activities is much challenging. Herein, we report an effective method to improve the water oxidation activity by fabricating a nanocomposite of Mn3O4 and δ-MnO2 with an active interface. The nanocomposite was achieved by a partial reduction approach which induced an in situ growth of Mn3O4 nanoparticles from the surface of δ-MnO2 nanosheets. The optimum composition was determined to be 38% Mn3O4 and 62% δ-MnO2 as confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) and X-ray absorption spectra (XAS). The δ-MnO2-Mn3O4 nanocomposite is a highly active water oxidation catalyst with a turnover frequency (TOF) of 0.93 s-1, which is much higher than the individual components of δ-MnO2 and Mn3O4. We consider that the enhanced water oxidation activity could be explained by the active interface between two components. At the phase interface, weak Mn-O bonds are introduced by lattice disorder in the transition of hausmannite phase to birnessite phase, which provides active sites for water oxidation catalysis. Our study illustrates a new view to improve water oxidation activity of manganese oxides.

Abstract
Conversion of sunlight to storable solar fuels offers a convenient and a promising route to renewable energy that is more important on account of the limited availability of fossil fuels and its global environmental benefits. One of the best ways to generate solar fuels is by splitting water into oxygen and hydrogen using visible-light photocatalysts. Presented is a facile, scalable, and convenient strategy for the preparation of silver phosphate (Ag3 PO4 ) particles with diverse morphology for visible-light water oxidation and dye degradation. Changing the solvents in the reactions resulted in altered morphology such as ellipsoids, irregular shapes, polyhedra, and sphere-type particles. These were then extensively characterized. Variation in the activity of photochemical water oxidation and dye degradation was observed during photocatalysis depending on the morphology, whereby the ellipsoids of Ag3 PO4 displayed enhanced catalytic performance.
