Abstract
This study focused on constructing iron(III)-tetraamidomacrocyclic ligand (FeIII-TAML)-based magnetic nanostructures via a surfactant-assisted self-assembly (SAS) method to enhance the reactivity and recoverability of FeIII-TAML activators, which have been widely employed to degrade various organic contaminants. We have fabricated FeIII-TAML-based magnetic nanomaterials (FeIII-TAML/CTAB@Fe3O4, CTAB refers to cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) by adding a mixed solution of FeIII-TAML and NH3·H2O into another mixture containing CTAB, FeCl2 and FeCl3 solutions. The as-prepared FeIII-TAML/CTAB@Fe3O4 nanocomposite showed relative reactivity compared with free FeIII-TAML as indicated by decomposition of bisphenol A (BPA). Moreover, our results demonstrated that the FeIII-TAML/CTAB@Fe3O4 composite can be separated directly from reaction solutions by magnet adsorption and reused for at least four times. Therefore, the efficiency and recyclability of self-assembled FeIII-TAML/CTAB@Fe3O4 nanostructures will enable the application of FeIII-TAML-based materials with a lowered expense for environmental implication.

Abstract
Iron complexes of tetra-amido macrocyclic ligands (Fe-TAML) are recognized to be effective catalysts for the degradation of a wide range of organic contaminants in homogeneous conditions with the high valent Fe(IV) and Fe(V) species generated on activation of the Fe-TAML complex by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) recognized to be powerful oxidants. Electrochemical activation of Fe-TAML would appear an attractive alternative to H2O2 activation, especially if the Fe-TAML complex could be attached to the anode, as this would enable formation of high valent iron species at the anode and, importantly, retention of the valuable Fe-TAML complex within the reaction system. In this work, we affix Fe-TAML to the surface of carbon black particles and apply this "suspension anode" process to oxidize selected target compounds via generation of high valent iron species. We show that the overpotential for Fe(IV) formation is 0.17 V lower than the potential required to generate Fe(IV) electrochemically in homogeneous solution and also show that the stability of the Fe(IV) species is enhanced considerably compared to the homogeneous Fe-TAML case. Application of the carbon black-supported Fe-TAML suspension anode reactor to degradation of oxalate and hydroquinone with an initial pH value of 3 resulted in oxidation rate constants that were up to three times higher than could be achieved by anodic oxidation in the absence of Fe-TAML and at energy consumptions per order of removal substantially lower than could be achieved by alternate technologies.

Abstract
Metalloporphyrins have exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activities for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In order to improve the efficiency and conductivity, these molecular catalysts need to be immobilized on conductive electrode materials. Herein, a facile "one-pot" strategy was developed to coat a covalent metalloporphyrin polymer on a carbon nanotube (CNT) as bifunctional catalysts [denoted as MTIPP@CNTs, H2TIPP = 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-(imidazole-1-yl)phenyl)porphyrin)] for water splitting in alkaline solution. MTIPP@CNTs have shown excellent electrocatalytic activities for both the HER and OER when metalloporphyrin's central metal is optimized as well as the amount of catalysts that is loaded on the CNT. The overpotential (η10) of NiTIPP@CNT-2 for the OER is only 320 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 in 1.0 M KOH, and CoTIPP@CNT-1 exhibited an excellent electrocatalytic activity for the HER (η10 = 450 mV for 10 mA cm-2). Furthermore, the remarkable bifunctional electrocatalytic performance (a cell voltage of 2.04 V with a current density of 10 mA cm-2) was also explored in the overall water splitting test.

Abstract
The utilization of earth-abundant low-toxicity metal ions in the construction of highly active and efficient molecular catalysts promoting the water oxidation reaction is important for developing a sustainable artificial energy cycle. However, the kinetic and thermodynamic properties of the currently available molecular water oxidation catalysts (MWOCs) have not been comprehensively investigated. This Review summarizes the current status of MWOCs based on first-row transition metals in terms of their turnover frequency (TOF, a kinetic property) and overpotential (η, a thermodynamic property) and uses the relationship between log(TOF) and η to assess catalytic performance. Furthermore, the effects of the same ligand classes on these MWOCs are discussed in terms of TOF and η, and vice versa. The collective analysis of these relationships provides a metric for the direct comparison of catalyst systems and identifying factors crucial for catalyst design.

Abstract
Water nucleophilic attack (WNA) on high-valent terminal Mn-oxo species is proposed for O-O bond formation in natural and artificial water oxidation. Herein, we report an electrocatalytic water oxidation reaction with MnIII tris(pentafluorophenyl)corrole (1) in propylene carbonate (PC). O2 was generated at the MnV/IV potential with hydroxide, but a more anodic potential was required to evolve O2 with only water. With a synthetic MnV(O) complex of 1, a second-order rate constant, k2(OH-), of 7.4 × 103 M-1 s-1 was determined in the reaction of the MnV(O) complex of 1 with hydroxide, whereas its reaction with water occurred much more slowly with a k2(H2O) value of 4.4 × 10-3 M-1 s-1. This large reactivity difference of MnV(O) with hydroxide and water is consistent with different electrocatalytic behaviors of 1 with these two substrates. Significantly, during the electrolysis of 1 with water, a MnIV-peroxo species was identified with various spectroscopic methods, including UV-vis, electron paramagnetic resonance, and infrared spectroscopy. Isotope-labeling experiments confirmed that both O atoms of this peroxo species are derived from water, suggesting the involvement of the WNA mechanism in water oxidation by a Mn complex. Density functional theory calculations suggested that the nucleophilic attack of hydroxide on MnV(O) and also WNA to 1e--oxidized MnV(O) are feasibly involved in the catalytic cycles but that direct WNA to MnV(O) is not likely to be the main O-O bond formation pathway in the electrocatalytic water oxidation by 1.

Abstract
(Photo)electrolysis of water or gases with water to species serving as industrial feedstocks and energy carriers, such as hydrogen, ammonia, ethylene, propanol, etc., has drawn tremendous attention. Moreover, these processes can often be driven by renewable energy under ambient conditions as a sustainable alternative to traditional high-temperature and high-pressure synthesis methods. In addition to the extensive studies on catalyst development, increasing attention has been paid to the regulation of gas transport/diffusion behaviors during gas-involving (photo)electrocatalytic reactions towards the goal of creating industrially viable catalytic systems with high reaction rates, excellent long-term stabilities and near-unity selectivities. Biomimetic surfaces and systems with special wetting capabilities and structural advantages can shed light on the future design of (photo)electrodes and address long-standing challenges. This article is dedicated to bridging the fields of wetting and catalysis by reviewing the cutting-edge design methodologies of both gas-evolving and gas-consuming (photo)electrocatalytic systems. We first introduce the fundamentals of various in-air/underwater wetting states and their corresponding bioinspired structural properties. The relationship amongst the bubble transport behavior, wettability, and porosity/tortuosity is also discussed. Next, the latest implementations of wetting-related design principles for gas-evolving reactions (i.e. the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction) and gas-consuming reactions (i.e. the oxygen reduction reaction and CO2 reduction reaction) are summarized. For photoelectrode designs, additional factors are taken into account, such as light absorption and the separation, transport and recombination of photoinduced electrons and holes. The influences of wettability and 3D structuring of (photo)electrodes on the catalytic activity, stability and selectivity are analyzed to reveal the underlying mechanisms. Finally, remaining questions and related future perspectives are outlined.

Abstract
The structure, chemistry, and charge of interfaces between materials and aqueous fluids play a central role in determining properties and performance of numerous water systems. Sensors, membranes, sorbents, and heterogeneous catalysts almost uniformly rely on specific interactions between their surfaces and components dissolved or suspended in the water-and often the water molecules themselves-to detect and mitigate contaminants. Deleterious processes in these systems such as fouling, scaling (inorganic deposits), and corrosion are also governed by interfacial phenomena. Despite the importance of these interfaces, much remains to be learned about their multiscale interactions. Developing a deeper understanding of the molecular- and mesoscale phenomena at water/solid interfaces will be essential to driving innovation to address grand challenges in supplying sufficient fit-for-purpose water in the future. In this Review, we examine the current state of knowledge surrounding adsorption, reactivity, and transport in several key classes of water/solid interfaces, drawing on a synergistic combination of theory, simulation, and experiments, and provide an outlook for prioritizing strategic research directions.

Abstract
Developing highly active electrocatalysts with low costs and long durability for oxygen evolution reactions (OERs) is crucial towards the practical implementations of electrocatalytic water-splitting and rechargeable metal-air batteries. Anodized nanostructured 3d transition metals and alloys with the formation of OER-active oxides/hydroxides are known to have high catalytic activity towards OERs but suffer from poor electrical conductivity and electrochemical stability in harsh oxidation environments. Here we report that high OER activity can be achieved from the metallic state of Ni which is passivated by atomically thick graphene in a three-dimensional nanoporous architecture. As a free-standing catalytic anode, the non-oxide transition metal catalyst shows a low OER overpotential, high OER current density and long cycling lifetime in alkaline solutions, benefiting from the high electrical conductivity and low impedance resistance for charge transfer and transport. This study may pave a new way to develop high efficiency transition metal OER catalysts for a wide range of applications in renewable energy.

Abstract
Nature uses Fe porphyrin sites for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Synthetic Fe porphyrins have been extensively studied as ORR catalysts, but activity improvement is required. On the other hand, Fe porphyrins have been rarely shown to be efficient for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). We herein report an enzyme-inspired Fe porphyrin 1 as an efficient catalyst for both ORR and OER. Complex 1, which bears a tethered imidazole for Fe binding, beats imidazole-free analogue 2, with an anodic shift of ORR half-wave potential by 160 mV and a decrease of OER overpotential by 150 mV to get the benchmark current density at 10 mA cm-2 . Theoretical studies suggested that hydroxide attack to a formal FeV =O form the O-O bond. The axial imidazole can prevent the formation of trans HO-FeV =O, which is less effective to form O-O bond with hydroxide. As a practical demonstration, we assembled rechargeable Zn-air battery with 1, which shows equal performance to that with Pt/Ir-based materials.

Abstract
We report the effect of replacing the pyridine group in the chelating trz Ir-water oxidation catalysts by a benzoxazole and a thiazole moiety. We have also evaluated if the presence of bidentate ligands is crucial for high activities and to avoid the decomposition into undesired heterogeneous layers. The catalytic performance of these benzoxazole/thiazole-triazolidene Ir-complexes in water oxidation was studied at variable pH using either CAN (pH = 1) or NaIO4 (pH = 5.6 and 7). Electrocatalytic experiments indicated that while CAN-mediated water oxidation led to catalyst heterogeneization irrespective of the triazolylidene substituent, periodate as sacrificial oxidant preserved a homogeneously active species. Repetitive additions of sacrificial oxidant indicates higher integrity of the Ir-complex with a thiazole-substituted triazolylidene compared to ligands featuring a benzoxazole as chelating donor or no chelating group at all. Rigid chelation of the thiazole group was also established from stability measurements under highly acidic, oxidizing, and high ionic strength conditions.

Abstract
Pincer ligands occupy three coplanar sites at metal centers and often support both stability and reactivity. The five-coordinate [FeIIICl2(tia-BAI)] complex (tia-BAI− = 1,3-bis(2’-thiazolylimino)isoindolinate(−)) was considered as a potential pre-catalyst for water oxidation providing the active form via the exchange of chloride ligands to water molecules. The tia-BAI− pincer ligand renders water-insolubility to the Fe–(tia-BAI) assembly, but it tolerates the presence of water in acetone and produces electrocatalytic current in cyclic voltammetry associated with molecular water oxidation catalysis. Upon addition of water to [FeIIICl2(tia-BAI)] in acetone the changes in the Fe3+/2+ redox transition and the UV-visible spectra could be associated with solvent-dependent equilibria between the aqua and chloride complex forms. Immobilization of the complex from methanol on indium-tin-oxide (ITO) electrode by means of drop-casting resulted in water oxidation catalysis in borate buffer. The O2 detected by gas chromatography upon electrolysis at pH 8.3 indicates >80% Faraday efficiency by a TON > 193. The investigation of the complex/ITO assembly by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) before and after electrolysis, and re-dissolution tests suggest that an immobilized molecular catalyst is responsible for catalysis and de-activation occurs by depletion of the metal.

Abstract
Electrochemical organic oxidation reactions are highly appealing because protons are often effective terminal electron acceptors, thereby avoiding undesirable stoichiometric oxidants. These reactions are often plagued by high overpotentials, however, that greatly limit their utility. Single-electron transfer (SET) from organic molecules generates high-energy radical-cations. Formation of such intermediates often requires electrode potentials far above the thermodynamic potentials of the reaction and frequently causes decomposition and/or side reactions of ancillary functional groups. In this Account, we show how electrocatalytic electron-proton transfer mediators (EPTMs) address this challenge. EPTMs bypass the formation of radical-cation intermediates by supporting mechanisms that operate at electrode potentials much lower (≥1 V) than those of analogous direct electrolysis reactions.The stable aminoxyl radical TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine N-oxyl) is an effective mediator for electrochemical alcohol oxidation, and we have employed such processes for applications ranging from pharmaceutical synthesis to biomass conversion. A complementary electrochemical alcohol oxidation method employs a cooperative Cu/TEMPO mediator system that operates at 0.5 V lower electrode potential than the TEMPO-only mediated process. This difference, which arises from a different catalytic mechanism, rationalizes the broad functional group tolerance of Cu/TEMPO-based aerobic alcohol oxidation catalysts.Aminoxyl mediators address long-standing challenges in the "Shono oxidation," an important method for α-C-H oxidation of tertiary amides and carbamates. Shono oxidations are initiated by a high-potential SET step that limits their utility. Aminoxyl-mediated Shono-type oxidations have been developed that operate at much lower potentials and tolerate diverse functional groups. Analogous reactivity underlies α-C-H cyanation of secondary cyclic amines, a new method that enables efficient diversification of piperidine-based pharmaceutical building blocks and preparation of non-natural amino acids.Electrochemical oxidations of benzylic C-H bonds are commonly initiated by SET to generate arene radical cations, but such methods are again plagued by large overpotentials. Mediated electrolysis methods that promote hydrogen-atom-transfer (HAT) from benzylic C-H bonds to Fe-oxo species and phthalimide N-oxyl (PINO) support C-H oxygenation, iodination, and oxidative-coupling reactions. A complementary method merges photochemistry with electrochemistry to achieve amidation of C(sp3)-H bonds. This unique process operates at much lower overpotentials compatible with diverse functional groups.These results have broad implications for organic electrochemistry, highlighting the importance of "overpotential" considerations and the prospects for expanding synthetic utility by using mediators to bypass high-energy outer-sphere electron-transfer mechanisms. Principles demonstrated here for oxidation are equally relevant to electrochemical reductions.

Abstract
Water splitting is one of the most promising solutions for storing solar energy in a chemical bond. Water oxidation is still the bottleneck step because of its inherent difficulty and the limited understanding of the O-O bond formation mechanism. Molecular catalysts provide a platform for understanding this process in depth and have received wide attention since the first Ru-based catalyst was reported in 1982. RuV =O is considered a key intermediate to initiate the O-O bond formation through either a water nucleophilic attack (WNA) pathway or a bimolecular coupling (I2M) pathway. Herein, we report a Ru-based catalyst that displays water oxidation reactivity with RuIV =(O) with the help of a redox-active ligand at pH 7.0. The results of electrochemical studies and DFT calculations disclose that ligand oxidation could significantly improve the reactivity of RuIV =O toward water oxidation. Under these conditions, sustained water oxidation catalysis occurs at reasonable rates with low overpotential (ca. 183 mV).

Abstract
High-valent iron-oxo complexes are key intermediates in C-H functionalization reactions. Herein, we report the generation of a (TAML)Fe-oxo species (TAML = tetraamido macrocyclic ligand) via electrochemical proton-coupled oxidation of the corresponding (TAML)FeIII-OH2 complex. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and spectroelectrochemical studies are used to elucidate the relevant (TAML)Fe redox processes and determine the predominant (TAML)Fe species present in solution during bulk electrolysis. Evidence for iron(iv) and iron(v) species is presented, and these species are used in the electrochemical oxygenation of benzylic C-H bonds and dehydrogenation of alcohols to ketones.

Abstract
While loading of cocatalysts is one of the most widely investigated strategies to promote the efficiency of photoelectrodes, the understanding of their functionality remains controversial. We established new hybrid molecular photoanodes with cobalt-based molecular cubane cocatalysts on hematite as a model system. Photoelectrochemical and rate law analyses revealed an interesting functionality transition of the {Co(II)4O4}-type cocatalysts. Their role changed from predominant hole reservoirs to catalytic centers upon modulation of the applied bias. Kinetic analysis of the photoelectrochemical processes indicated that this observed transition arises from the dynamic equilibria of photogenerated surface charge carriers. Most importantly, we confirmed this functional transition of the cocatalysts and the related kinetic properties for several cobalt-based molecular and heterogeneous catalysts, indicating wide applicability of the derived trends. Additionally, complementary analytical characterizations show that a transformation of the applied molecular species occurs at higher applied bias, pointing to a dynamic interplay connecting molecular and heterogeneous catalysis. Our insights promote the essential understanding of efficient (molecular) cocatalyzed photoelectrode systems to design tailor-made hybrid devices for a wide range of catalytic applications.

Abstract
Molecular catalysis plays an essential role in both natural and artificial photosynthesis (AP). However, the field of molecular catalysis for AP has gradually declined in recent years because of doubt about the long-term stability of molecular-catalyst-based devices. This review summarizes the development history of molecular-catalyst-based AP, including the fundamentals of AP, molecular catalysts for water oxidation, proton reduction and CO2 reduction, and molecular-catalyst-based AP devices, and it provides an analysis of the advantages, challenges, and stability of molecular catalysts. With this review, we aim to highlight the following points: (i) an investigation on molecular catalysis is one of the most promising ways to obtain atom-efficient catalysts with outstanding intrinsic activities; (ii) effective heterogenization of molecular catalysts is currently the primary challenge for the application of molecular catalysis in AP devices; (iii) development of molecular catalysts is a promising way to solve the problems of catalysis involved in practical solar fuel production. In molecular-catalysis-based AP, much has been attained, but more challenges remain with regard to long-term stability and heterogenization techniques.

Abstract
Two different methods were used to immobilize Co corroles on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) through covalent bonds. The resulting CNTs engineered with Co corroles were used as electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in aqueous solutions of pH 0, 7, and 14. For both HER and OER in all solutions, the hybrids obtained by attaching Co corroles on CNTs through amidation coupling showed better performance. This is likely because the large surface area and good electrical conductivity of CNTs can be well preserved during the amidation reaction under mild conditions.

Abstract
Low-overpotential water oxidation catalyzed by copper(ii) porphyrin to produce O2 in neutral aqueous solution and H2O2 in acidic solution.
Low overpotential water oxidation under mild conditions is required for new energy conversion technologies with potential application prospects. Extensive studies on molecular catalysis have been performed to gain fundamental knowledge for the rational designing of cheap, efficient and robust catalysts. We herein report a water-soluble CuII complex of tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin (1), which catalyzes the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in neutral aqueous solutions with small overpotentials: the onset potential of the catalytic water oxidation wave measured at current density j = 0.10 mA cm–2 is 1.13 V versus a normal hydrogen electrode (NHE), which corresponds to an onset overpotential of 310 mV. Constant potential electrolysis of 1 at neutral pH and at 1.30 V versus NHE displayed a substantial and stable current for O2 evolution with a faradaic efficiency of >93%. More importantly, in addition to the 4e water oxidation to O2 at neutral pH, 1 can catalyze the 2e water oxidation to H2O2 in acidic solutions. The produced H2O2 is detected by rotating ring–disk electrode measurements and by the sodium iodide method after bulk electrolysis at pH 3.0. This work presents an efficient and robust Cu-based catalyst for water oxidation in both neutral and acidic solutions. The observation of H2O2 during water oxidation catalysis is rare and will provide new insights into the water oxidation mechanism.

Abstract
Water splitting is promising to realize a hydrogen-based society. The practical use of molecular water-splitting catalysts relies on their integration onto electrode materials. We describe herein the immobilization of cobalt corroles on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by four strategies and compare the performance of the resulting hybrids for H2 and O2 evolution. Co corroles can be covalently attached to CNTs with short conjugated linkers (the hybrid is denoted as H1) or with long alkane chains (H2), or can be grafted to CNTs via strong π-π interactions (H3) or via simple adsorption (H4). An activity trend H1≫H3>H2≈H4 is obtained for H2 and O2 evolution, showing the critical role of electron transfer ability on electrocatalysis. Notably, H1 is the first Janus catalyst for both H2 and O2 evolution reactions in pH 0-14 aqueous solutions. Therefore, this work is significant to show potential uses of electrode materials with well-designed molecular catalysts in electrocatalysis.

Abstract
The (photo) chemical oxidation of a (TAML)FeIII complex using outer-sphere oxidants results in valence tautomerisation and C–H activation governed by exogenous anions.
The photochemical oxidation of a (TAML)FeIII complex 1 using visible light generated Ru(bpy)33+ produces valence tautomers (TAML)FeIV (1+) and (TAML˙+)FeIII (1-TAML˙+), depending on the exogenous anions. The presence of labile Cl– or Br– results in a ligand-based oxidation and stabilisation of a radical-cationic (TAML˙+)FeIII complex, which subsequently leads to unprecedented C–H activation followed by nucleophilic substitution on the TAML aryl ring. In contrast, exogenous cyanide culminates in metal-based oxidation, yielding the first example of a crystallographically characterised S = 1 [(TAML)FeIV(CN)2]2– species. This is a rare report of an anion-dependent valence tautomerisation in photochemically accessed high valent (TAML)Fe systems with potential applications in the oxidation of pollutants, hydrocarbons, and water. Furthermore, the nucleophilic aromatic halogenation reaction mediated by (TAML˙+)FeIII represents a novel domain for high-valent metal reactivity and highlights the possible intramolecular ligand or substrate modification pathways under highly oxidising conditions. Our findings therefore shine light on high-valent metal oxidants based on TAMLs and other potential non-innocent ligands and open new avenues for oxidation catalyst design.

Abstract
The development of an earth-abundant, first-row water oxidation catalyst that operates at a high TOF and a low overpotential remains a fundamental chemical challenge. Cobalt complexes are important members of water oxidation catalysts. Herein, we report a cobalt-based robust homogeneous water oxidation catalyst, which can electrocatalyze water oxidation at a high pH and a low overpotential (η = 520 mV) in phosphate buffer. This homogeneous system exhibits a high turnover frequency (about 5 s-1) of catalyzing water oxidation to produce oxygen at η = 720 mV. We speculate the mechanism of the reaction that O-O bond formation prefers a HO-OH coupling in catalytic water oxidation.

The
synthesis, characterization, and electrochemical studies of
the dinuclear complex [(MeOH)Fe(Hbbpya)-μ-O-(Hbbpya)Fe(MeOH)](OTf)4 (1) (with Hbbpya = N,N-bis(2,2′-bipyrid-6-yl)amine)
are described. With the help of online electrochemical mass spectrometry,
the complex is demonstrated to be active as a water oxidation catalyst.
Comparing the results obtained for different electrode materials shows
a clear substrate influence of the electrode, as the complex shows
a significantly lower catalytic overpotential on graphitic working
electrodes in comparison to other electrode materials. Cyclic voltammetry
experiments provide evidence that the structure of complex 1 undergoes reversible changes under high-potential conditions, regenerating
the original structure of complex 1 upon returning to
lower potentials. Results from electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance
experiments rule out that catalysis proceeds via deposition of catalytically
active material on the electrode surface.

Abstract
Water oxidation is the key step in both natural and artificial photosynthesis to capture solar energy for fuel production. The design of highly efficient and stable molecular catalysts for water oxidation based on nonprecious metals is still a great challenge. In this article, the electrocatalytic oxidation of water by Na[(L4-)CoIII], where L is a substituted tetraamido macrocyclic ligand, was investigated in aqueous solution (pH 7.0). We found that Na[(L4-)CoIII] is a stable and efficient homogeneous catalyst for electrocatalytic water oxidation with 380 mV onset overpotential in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). Both ligand- and metal-centered redox features are involved in the catalytic cycle. In this cycle, Na[(L4-)CoIII] was first oxidized to [(L2-)CoIIIOH] via a ligand-centered proton-coupled electron transfer process in the presence of water. After further losing an electron and a proton, the resting state, [(L2-)CoIIIOH], was converted to [(L2-)CoIV═O]. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP-D3(BJ)/6-311++G(2df,2p)//B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory confirmed the proposed catalytic cycle. According to both experimental and DFT results, phosphate-assisted water nucleophilic attack to [(L2-)CoIV═O] played a key role in O-O bond formation.

Abstract
The nonheme iron(IV) oxo complex [FeIV(O)(tpenaH)]2+ and its conjugate base [FeIV(O)(tpena)]+ [tpena- = N,N,N'-tris(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine-N'-acetate] have been prepared electrochemically in water by bulk electrolysis of solutions prepared from [FeIII2(μ-O)(tpenaH)2](ClO4)4 at potentials over 1.3 V (vs NHE) using inexpensive and commercially available carbon-based electrodes. Once generated, these iron(IV) oxo complexes persist at room temperature for minutes to half an hour over a wide range of pH values. They are capable of rapidly decomposing aliphatic and aromatic alcohols, alkanes, formic acid, phenols, and the xanthene dye rhodamine B. The oxidation of formic acid to carbon dioxide demonstrates the capacity for total mineralization of organic compounds. A radical hydrogen-atom-abstraction mechanism is proposed with a reactivity profile for the series that is reminiscent of oxidations by the hydroxyl radical. Facile regeneration of [FeIV(O)(tpenaH)]2+/ [FeIV(O)(tpena)]+ and catalytic turnover in the oxidation of cyclohexanol under continuous electrolysis demonstrates the potential of the application of [FeIII(tpena)]2+ as an electrocatalyst. The promiscuity of the electrochemically generated iron(IV) oxo complexes, in terms of the broad range of substrates examined, represents an important step toward the goal of cost-effective electrocatalytic water purification.

Abstract
TAML activators of peroxides are iron(III) complexes. The ligation by four deprotonated amide nitrogens in macrocyclic motifs is the signature of TAMLs where the macrocyclic structures vary considerably. TAML activators are exceptional functional replicas of the peroxidases and cytochrome P450 oxidizing enzymes. In water, they catalyze peroxide oxidation of a broad spectrum of compounds, many of which are micropollutants, compounds that produce undesired effects at low concentrations-as with the enzymes, peroxide is typically activated with near-quantitative efficiency. In nonaqueous solvents such as organic nitriles, the prototype TAML activator gave the structurally authenticated reactive iron(V)oxo units (FeVO), wherein the iron atom is two oxidation equivalents above the FeIII resting state. The iron(V) state can be achieved through the intermediacy of iron(IV) species, which are usually μ-oxo-bridged dimers (FeIVFeIV), and this allows for the reactivity of this potent reactive intermediate to be studied in stoichiometric processes. The present review is primarily focused at the mechanistic features of the oxidation by FeVO of hydrocarbons including cyclohexane. The main topic is preceded by a description of mechanisms of oxidation of thioanisoles by FeVO, because the associated studies provide valuable insight into the ability of FeVO to oxidize organic molecules. The review is opened by a summary of the interconversions between FeIII, FeIVFeIV, and FeVO species, since this information is crucial for interpreting the kinetic data. The highest reactivity in both reaction classes described belongs to FeVO. The resting state FeIII is unreactive oxidatively. Intermediate reactivity is typically found for FeIVFeIV; therefore, kinetic features for these species in interchange and oxidation processes are also reviewed. Examples of using TAML activators for C-H bond cleavage applied to fine organic synthesis conclude the review.

Abstract
A detailed electrochemical investigation of a series of iron complexes (biuret-modified tetraamido iron macrocycles FeIII -bTAML), including the first electrochemical generation of FeV (O), and demonstration of their efficacy as homogeneous catalysts for electrochemical water oxidation (WO) in aqueous medium are reported. Spectroelectrochemical and mass spectral studies indicated FeV (O) as the active oxidant, formed due to two redox transitions, which were assigned as FeIV (O)/FeIII (OH2 ) and FeV (O)/FeIV (O). The spectral properties of both of these high-valent iron oxo species perfectly match those of their chemically synthesised versions, which were thoroughly characterised by several spectroscopic techniques. The O-O bond-formation step occurs by nucleophilic attack of H2 O on FeV (O). A kinetic isotope effect of 3.2 indicates an atom-proton transfer (APT) mechanism. The reaction of chemically synthesised FeV (O) in CH3 CN and water was directly probed by electrochemistry and was found to be first-order in water. The pKa value of the buffer base plays a critical role in the rate-determining step by increasing the reaction rate several-fold. The electronic effect on redox potential, WO rates, and onset overpotential was studied by employing a series of iron complexes. The catalytic activity was enhanced by the presence of electron-withdrawing groups on the bTAML framework. Changing the substituents from OMe to NO2 resulted in an eightfold increase in reaction rate, while the overpotential increased threefold.

Abstract
Iron(III)-tetraamidomacrocyclic ligand (Fe(III)-TAML) activators have received widespread attentions for their abilities to activate hydrogen peroxide to oxidize many organic pollutants. In this study, Fe(III)-TAML/layered double hydroxide (LDH) composite was developed by intercalating Fe(III)-TAML into the interlayer of LDH. Electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding might account for the adsorption of Fe(III)-TAML on LDH. The newly synthesized Fe(III)-TAML/LDH composite showed superior reactivity as indicated by efficient decomposition of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, which can be fully degraded within 20 s and the degradation rate increased up to 8 times compared to free Fe(III)-TAML. In addition, the toxicity of the system was significantly reduced after the reaction. The higher reactivity of Fe(III)-TAML/LDH system is attributed to the enhanced adsorption of TBBPA on LDH, which could increase the contact possibility between Fe(III)-TAML and TBBPA. On the basis of the analysis of reaction intermediates, β-scission at the middle carbon atom and C-Br bond cleavage in phenyl ring of TBBPA were involved in the degradation process. Furthermore, our results demonstrated that the Fe(III)-TAML/LDH composite can be reused several times, which could lower the overall cost for environmental implication and render Fe(III)-TAML/LDH as the potential environmentally friendly catalyst for future wastewater treatment under mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
Developing highly active electrocatalysts with low cost and high efficiency for oxygen evolution reactions (OER) is important for the practical implementations of hydrogen energy. Here, we report a Zn-doped CoSe2 nanosheets grown on free-standing carbon fabric collector (CFC), which was synthesized by using a metal-organic framework (MOF) as precursor and followed by a selenylation process. Importantly, the Zn-doped CoSe2/CFC electrode exhibited an obviously enhanced catalytic activity for OER in 1 M KOH aqueous solution compared with CoSe2/CFC, showing a small overpotential of 356 mV for a current density of 10 mA cm-2, a small Tafel slope of 88 mV dec-1, and an excellent stability. The robust and free-standing electrode shows great potential as an economic catalyst for OER applications.

Abstract
A new family of ruthenium complexes based on the N-pentadentate ligand Py2 (Me) tacn (N-methyl-N',N''-bis(2-picolyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) has been synthesised and its catalytic activity has been studied in the water-oxidation (WO) reaction. We have used chemical oxidants (ceric ammonium nitrate and NaIO4 ) to generate the WO intermediates [Ru(II) (OH2 )(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) , [Ru(III) (OH2 )(Py2 (Me) tacn)](3+) , [Ru(III) (OH)(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) and [Ru(IV) (O)(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) , which have been characterised spectroscopically. Their relative redox and pH stability in water has been studied by using UV/Vis and NMR spectroscopies, HRMS and spectroelectrochemistry. [Ru(IV) (O)(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) has a long half-life (>48 h) in water. The catalytic cycle of WO has been elucidated by using kinetic, spectroscopic, (18) O-labelling and theoretical studies, and the conclusion is that the rate-determining step is a single-site water nucleophilic attack on a metal-oxo species. Moreover, [Ru(IV) (O)(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) is proposed to be the resting state under catalytic conditions. By monitoring Ce(IV) consumption, we found that the O2 evolution rate is redox-controlled and independent of the initial concentration of Ce(IV) . Based on these facts, we propose herein that [Ru(IV) (O)(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) is oxidised to [Ru(V) (O)(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) prior to attack by a water molecule to give [Ru(III) (OOH)(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) . Finally, it is shown that the difference in WO reactivity between the homologous iron and ruthenium [M(OH2 )(Py2 (Me) tacn)](2+) (M=Ru, Fe) complexes is due to the difference in the redox stability of the key M(V) (O) intermediate. These results contribute to a better understanding of the WO mechanism and the differences between iron and ruthenium complexes in WO reactions.

Abstract
The macrocyclic [FeIII(L1)Cl2]+ (1, L1 = N,N'-dimethyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)pyridinophane) complex is an active catalyst for the oxidation of water to oxygen using [NH4]2[CeIV(NO3)6] (CAN), NaIO4, or Oxone as the oxidant. The mechanism of 1-catalysed water oxidation was examined by spectroscopic methods and by 18O-labelling experiments, revealing that FeIV 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 1111111111111111111111111111111111 1111111111111111111111111111111111 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 1111111111111111111111111111111111 1111111111111111111111111111111111 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 O and/or FeV 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 1111111111111111111111111111111111 1111111111111111111111111111111111 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 1111111111111111111111111111111111 1111111111111111111111111111111111 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000000000 O species are likely to be involved in the reaction.

In aqueous solutions, the cyclic voltammograms of 1 at different pH show a pH-dependent reversible couple (E1/2 = +0.46 V vs. SCE at pH 1) and an irreversible anodic wave (Epa = +1.18 V vs. SCE at pH 1) assigned to the FeIII/FeII couple and the FeIII to FeIV oxidation, respectively. DFT calculations showed that the E value of the half reaction involving [FeV(L1)(O)(OH)]2+/[FeIV(L1)(O)(OH2)]2+ is +1.42 V vs. SCE at pH 1.
