Abstract
Metalloporphyrins modified carbon-based materials, owing to the excellent acid-base resistance, optimal electron transfer rates, and superior catalytic performance, have shown great potential in energy electrocatalysis. Recently, numerous efforts have concentrated on employing carbon-based substrates as platforms to anchor metalloporphyrins, thereby fabricating a diverse array of composite catalysts tailored for assorted electrocatalytic processes. However, the interplay through bonding regulation of metalloporphyrins with carbon materials and the resultant enhancement in catalyst performance remains inadequately elucidated. Gaining an in-depth comprehension of the synergistic interactions between metalloporphyrins and carbon-based materials within the realm of electrocatalysis is imperative for advancing the development of innovative composite catalysts. Herein, the review systematically classifies the binding modes (i.e., covalent grafting and non-covalent interactions) between carbon-based materials and metalloporphyrins, followed by a discussion on the structural characteristics and applications of metalloporphyrins supported on various carbon-based substrates, categorized according to their binding modes. Additionally, this review underscores the principal challenges and emerging opportunities for carbon-supported metalloporphyrin composite catalysts, offering both inspiration and methodological insights for researchers involved in the design and application of these advanced catalytic systems.

Abstract
High-valent metal-oxo species are key reactive intermediates in many biological and biological oxidation reactions. Herein, allylic hydroxylation (C-H) versus epoxidation (C═C) reactions of propene with a model catalyst iron phthalocyanine (FePc) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide were investigated contrastively, aiming to probe the active intermediates, structure-activity relationship, and reaction pathways. Our results showed that H2O2 as an oxygen-donor reagent can be easily decomposed on FePc to produce key active intermediates O═FePc and O═FePc═O with the energy barriers of 19.57 and 23.89 kcal/mol, respectively. In the selective oxidation of propene, O═FePc has a small preference for C═C epoxidation over C-H hydroxylation while O═FePc═O has a small preference for C-H hydroxylation. Since the electron-withdrawing O axial ligand in O═FePc═O further increases the radical character (Fe-O·) and Fe-O bond length of the iron-oxo moiety, O═FePc═O has better catalytic performance in both C═C epoxidation and C-H hydroxylation than O═FePc. Furthermore, in the whole reaction processes, the dual-hydrogen bonds between the two terminal H atoms of the alkene and allylic groups of propene and oxygen atom of the iron-oxo moiety would lead to the reaction toward C═C epoxidation while the single-hydrogen bond between the terminal H atom of the allylic group and the oxygen atom of the iron-oxo moiety would lead to the reaction toward C-H hydroxylation, implying that the weakly interacting hydrogen bonds affecting oxidation pathways also play a very important role in the regioselectivity of C═C epoxidation and C-H hydroxylation.

Abstract
Due to the challenge of cleaving O-O bonds at single Co sites, mononuclear Co complexes typically show poor selectivity for the four-electron (4e-) oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, we report on selective 4e- ORR catalyzed by a Co porphyrin with a hanged ZnII ion. Inspired by Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase, we designed and synthesized 1-CoZn with a hanging ZnII at the second sphere of a Co porphyrin. Complex 1-CoZn is much more effective than its Zn-lacking analogues to catalyze the 4e- ORR in neutral aqueous solutions, giving an electron number of 3.91 per O2 reduction. With spectroscopic studies, the hanging ZnII was demonstrated to be able to facilitate the electron transfer from CoII to O2, through an electronic "pull effect", to give CoIII-superoxo. Theoretical studies further suggested that this "pull effect" plays crucial roles in assisting O-O bond cleavage. This work is significant to present a new strategy of hanging a ZnII to improve O2 activation and O-O bond cleavage.

Abstract
We prepare iron(II) and iron(III) complexes with polydentate ligands that contain quinols, which can act as electron proton transfer mediators. Although the iron(II) complex with N-(2,5-dihydroxybenzyl)-N,N',N'-tris(2-pyridinylmethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (H2qp1) is inactive as an electrocatalyst, iron complexes with N,N'-bis(2,5-dihydroxybenzyl)-N,N'-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (H4qp2) and N-(2,5-dihydroxybenzyl)-N,N'-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (H2qp3) were found to be much more active and more selective for water production than a previously reported cobalt-H2qp1 electrocatalyst while operating at low overpotentials. The catalysts with H2qp3 can enter the catalytic cycle as either Fe(II) or Fe(III) species; entering the cycle through Fe(III) lowers the effective overpotential. On the basis of their TOF0 values, the successful iron-quinol complexes are better electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction than previously reported iron-porphyrin compounds, with the Fe(III)-H2qp3 arguably being the best homogeneous electrocatalyst for this reaction. With iron, the quinol-for-phenol substitution shifts the product selectivity from H2O2 to water with little impact on the overpotential, but unlike cobalt, this substitution also greatly improves the activity, as assessed by TOFmax, by hastening the protonation and oxygen binding steps. The addition of a second quinol further enhances the activity and selectivity for water but modestly increases the effective overpotential.

Abstract
Electrochemical steps are increasingly attractive for green chemistry. Understanding reactions at the electrode-solution interface, governed by kinetics and mass transport, is crucial. Traditional insights into these mechanisms are limited, but our study bridges this gap through an integrated approach combining voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. This technique offers real-time monitoring of the chemical processes at the electrode-solution interface, tracking changes in intermediates and products during reactions. Applied to the electrochemical reduction of oxygen catalyzed by the iron(II) tetraphenyl porphyrin complex, it successfully reveals various reaction intermediates and degradation pathways under different kinetic regimes. Our findings illuminate complex electrocatalytic processes and propose new ways for studying reactions in alternating current and voltage-pulse electrosynthesis. This advancement enhances our capacity to optimize electrochemical reactions for more sustainable chemical processes.

Abstract
Whereas synthetically catalyzed nitrogen reduction (N2 R) to produce ammonia is widely studied, catalysis to instead produce hydrazine (N2 H4 ) has received less attention despite its considerable mechanistic interest. Herein, we disclose that irradiation of a tris(phosphine)borane (P3 B ) Fe catalyst, P3 B Fe+ , significantly alters its product profile to increase N2 H4 versus NH3 ; P3 B Fe+ is otherwise known to be highly selective for NH3 . We posit a key terminal hydrazido intermediate, P3 B Fe=NNH2 , as selectivity-determining. Whereas its singlet ground state undergoes protonation to liberate NH3 , a low-lying triplet excited state leads to reactivity at Nα and formation of N2 H4 . Associated electrochemical and spectroscopic studies establish that N2 H4 lies along a unique product pathway; NH3 is not produced from N2 H4 . Our findings are distinct from the canonical mechanism for hydrazine formation, which proceeds via a diazene (HN=NH) intermediate and showcase light as a tool to tailor selectivity.

Abstract
A cobalt porphyrin complex with a pendant imidazole base ([(L1 )CoII ]) is an efficient catalyst for the homogeneous catalytic two-electron reduction of dioxygen by 1,1'-dimethylferrocene (Me2 Fc) in the presence of triflic acid (HOTf), as compared with a cobalt porphyrin complex without a pendant imidazole base ([(L2 )CoII ]). The pendant imidazole ligand plays a crucial role not only to provide an imidazolinium proton for proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from [(L1 )CoII ] to O2 in the presence of HOTf but also to facilitate electron transfer (ET) from [(L1 )CoII ] to O2 in the absence of HOTf. The kinetics analysis and the detection of intermediates in the stoichiometric and catalytic reduction of O2 have provided clues to clarify the crucial roles of the pendant imidazole ligand of [(L1 )CoII ] for the first time.

Abstract
We report a new terpyridine-based FeN3O catalyst, Fe(tpytbupho)Cl2, which reduces O2 to H2O. Variable concentration and variable temperature spectrochemical studies with decamethylferrocene as a chemical reductant in acetonitrile solution enabled the elucidation of key reaction parameters for the catalytic reduction of O2 to H2O by Fe(tpytbupho)Cl2. These mechanistic studies suggest that a 2 + 2 mechanism is operative, where hydrogen peroxide is produced as a discrete intermediate, prior to further reduction to H2O. Consistent with this proposal, the spectrochemically measured first-order rate constant k (s-1) value for H2O2 reduction is larger than that for O2 reduction. Further, significant H2O2 production is observed under hydrodynamic conditions in rotating ring-disk electrode measurements, where the product can be swept away from the cathode surface before further reduction occurs.

Abstract
The highly efficient energy conversion of the polymer-electrolyte-membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is extremely limited by the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics and poor electrochemical stability of catalysts. Hitherto, to replace costly Pt-based catalysts, non-noble-metal ORR catalysts are developed, among which transition metal-heteroatoms-carbon (TM-H-C) materials present great potential for industrial applications due to their outstanding catalytic activity and low expense. However, their poor stability during testing in a two-electrode system and their high complexity have become a big barrier for commercial applications. Thus, herein, to simplify the research, the typical Fe-N-C material with the relatively simple constitution and structure, is selected as a model catalyst for TM-H-C to explore and improve the stability of such a kind of catalysts. Then, different types of active sites (centers) and coordination in Fe-N-C are systematically summarized and discussed, and the possible attenuation mechanism and strategies are analyzed. Finally, some challenges faced by such catalysts and their prospects are proposed to shed some light on the future development trend of TM-H-C materials for advanced ORR catalysis.

Abstract
Heme superoxides are one of the most versatile metallo-intermediates in biology, and they mediate a vast variety of oxidation and oxygenation reactions involving O2(g). Overall proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) processes they facilitate may proceed via several different mechanistic pathways, attributes of which are not yet fully understood. Herein we present a detailed investigation into concerted PCET events of a series of geometrically similar, but electronically disparate synthetic heme superoxide mimics, where unprecedented, PCET feasibility-determining electronic effects of the heme center have been identified. These electronic factors firmly modulate both thermodynamic and kinetic parameters that are central to PCET, as supported by our experimental and theoretical observations. Consistently, the most electron-deficient superoxide adduct shows the strongest driving force for PCET, whereas the most electron-rich system remains unreactive. The pivotal role of these findings in understanding significant heme systems in biology, as well as in alternative energy applications is also discussed.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic nanocarbon (EN) is a class of material receiving intense interest as a potential replacement for expensive, metal-based electrocatalysts for energy conversion and chemical production applications. The further development of EN will require an intricate knowledge of its catalytic behaviors, however, the true nature of their electrocatalytic activity remains elusive. This review highlights work that contributed valuable knowledge in the elucidation of EN catalytic mechanisms. Experimental evidence from spectroscopic studies and well-defined molecular models, along with the survey of computational studies, is summarized to document our current mechanistic understanding of EN-catalyzed oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen electrochemistry. We hope this review will inspire future development of synthetic methods and in situ spectroscopic tools to make and study well-defined EN structures.

Abstract
Achieving a selective 2 e- or 4 e- oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is critical but challenging. Herein, we report controlling ORR selectivity of Co porphyrins by tuning only steric effects. We designed Co porphyrin 1 with meso-phenyls each bearing a bulky ortho-amido group. Due to the resulted steric hinderance, 1 has four atropisomers with similar electronic structures but dissimilar steric effects. Isomers αβαβ and αααα catalyze ORR with n=2.10 and 3.75 (n is the electron number transferred per O2 ), respectively, but ααββ and αααβ show poor selectivity with n=2.89-3.10. Isomer αβαβ catalyzes 2 e- ORR by preventing a bimolecular O2 activation path, while αααα improves 4 e- ORR selectivity by improving O2 binding at its pocket, a feature confirmed by spectroscopy methods, including O K-edge near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure. This work represents an unparalleled example to improve 2 e- and 4 e- ORR by tuning only steric effects without changing molecular and electronic structures.

Abstract
Synthesizing molecule@support hybrids is appealing to improve molecular electrocatalysis. We report herein metal-organic framework (MOF)-supported Co porphyrins for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) with improved activity and selectivity. Co porphyrins can be grafted on MOF surfaces through ligand exchange. A variety of porphyrin@MOF hybrids were made using this method. Grafted Co porphyrins showed boosted ORR activity with large (>70 mV) anodic shift of the half-wave potential compared to ungrafted porphyrins. By using active MOFs for peroxide reduction, the number of electrons transferred per O2 increased from 2.65 to 3.70, showing significantly improved selectivity for the 4e ORR. It is demonstrated that H2 O2 generated from O2 reduction at Co porphyrins is further reduced at MOF surfaces, leading to improved 4e ORR. As a practical demonstration, these hybrids were used as air electrode catalysts in Zn-air batteries, which exhibited equal performance to that with Pt-based materials.

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
Multiple H2O2-forming mechanisms are accessible in Fe(porphyrin)-catalysed oxygen reduction, a key reaction in both fuel cell technologies and oxygen-utilizing enzymes. Our kinetic analysis reveals that the porphyrin secondary structure dictates the pathway for H2O2 formation. This approach is generalizable to other electrocatalytic processes and provides insight into the selectivity-determining steps.

Abstract
We report a Co-based complex for the reduction of O2 to H2O utilizing decamethylferrocene as chemical reductant and acetic acid as a proton donor in methanol solution. Despite structural similarities to previously reported Co(N2O2) complexes capable of catalytic O2 reduction, this system shows selectivity for the four-electron/four-proton reduction product, H2O, instead of the two-electron/two-proton reduction product, H2O2. Mechanistic studies show that the overall rate law is analogous to previous examples, suggesting that the key selectivity difference arises in part from increased favorability of protonation at the distal O position of the key intermediate Co(iii)-hydroperoxide, instead of the proximal one. Interestingly, no product selectivity dependence is observed with respect to the presence of pyridine, which is proposed to bind trans to O2 during catalysis.

Abstract
Porphyrins are archetypal ligands in inorganic chemistry. The last 10 years have seen important new advances in the use of metalloporphyrins as catalysts in the activation and reduction of small molecules, in particular O2 and CO2 . Recent developments of new molecular designs, scaling relationships, and theoretical modeling of mechanisms have rapidly advanced the utility of porphyrins as electrocatalysts. This Minireview focuses on the summary and evaluation of recent developments of metalloporphyrin O2 and CO2 reduction electrocatalysts, with an emphasis on contrasting homogeneous and heterogeneous electrocatalysis. Comparisons for proposed reaction mechanisms are provided for both CO2 and O2 reduction, and ideas are proposed about how lessons from the last decade of research can lead to the development of practical, applied porphyrin-derived catalysts.

Abstract
Considering the importance of water splitting as the best solution for clean and renewable energy, the worldwide efforts for development of increasingly active molecular water oxidation catalysts must be accompanied by studies that focus on elucidating the mode of actions and catalytic pathways. One crucial challenge remains the elucidation of the factors that determine the selectivity of water oxidation by the desired 4e-/4H+ pathway that leads to O2 rather than by 2e-/2H+ to H2O2. We now show that water oxidation with the cobalt-corrole CoBr8 as electrocatalyst affords H2O2 as the main product in homogeneous solutions, while heterogeneous water oxidation by the same catalyst leads exclusively to oxygen. Experimental and computation-based investigations of the species formed during the process uncover the formation of a Co(III)-superoxide intermediate and its preceding high-valent Co-oxyl complex. The competition between the base-catalyzed hydrolysis of Co(III)-hydroperoxide [Co(III)-OOH]- to release H2O2 and the electrochemical oxidation of the same to release O2 via [Co(III)-O2•]- is identified as the key step determining the selectivity of water oxidation.

Abstract
Four kinds of possible atropisomers of a porphyrin derivative (1), having mesityl groups at one of the o-positions of each meso-aryl group, can be selectively converged to targeted atropisomers among the four isomers (αααα, αααβ, αβαβ, and ααββ) under appropriate conditions for each atropisomer. For example, protonation and subsequent neutralization of a free base porphyrin (H2-1) induces a convergence reaction to the αβαβ atropisomer, H2-1-αβαβ, from an atropisomeric mixture. The αααα isomer, H2-1-αααα, was also obtained by heating a solution of H2-1 in CHCl3 in 60% isolated yield, probably owing to a template effect of the solvent molecule. Remarkably, when an atropisomeric mixture of its zinc complex, Zn-1, was heated at 70 °C in a ClCH2CH2Cl/MeOH mixed solvent, crystals composed of only Zn-1-αααα were formed. The hydrophobic space formed by the four mesityl groups in the αααα isomer can be used for repeatable molecular encapsulation of benzene, and the encapsulation structure was elucidated by powder X-ray diffraction analysis. Heating the solid of an atropisomeric mixture of Zn-1 to 400 °C afforded the ααββ isomer almost quantitatively. On the other hand, the solid of H2-1-αααα can be converted by heating, successively to H2-1-αααβ at 286 °C and then to H2-1-ααββ at 350 °C.

Abstract
A copper complex, [Cu(dpaq)](ClO4) (1), of a monoanionic pentadentate amidate ligand (dpaq) has been isolated and characterized to study its efficacy toward electrocatalytic reduction of oxygen in neutral aqueous medium. The Cu(II) mononuclear complex, poised in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal structure, reduces oxygen at an onset potential of 0.50 V vs RHE. Kinetics study by hydrodynamic voltammetry and chronoamperometry suggests a stepwise mechanism for sequential reduction of O2 to H2O2 to H2O at a single-site Cu-catalyst. The foot-of-the-wave analysis records a turnover frequency of 5.65 × 102 s-1. At pH 7.0, complex 1 undergoes a quasi-reversible mixed metal-ligand-based reduction and triggers the reduction of dioxygen to water. Electrochemical studies in tandem with quantum chemical investigation, conducted at different redox states, portray the active participation of ligand in completing the process of proton-coupled electron transfer internally. The protonated carboxamido moiety acts as a proton relay, while the quinoline-based orbital supplies the necessary redox equivalent for the conversion of complex 1 to Cu(II)-hydroperoxo species. Thus, a suitable combination of redox non-innocence and proton shuttling functionality in the ligand makes it an effective electron-proton-transfer mediator and subsequently assists the process of oxygen reduction.
