Abstract
We report two dinuclear rhenium(V) oxo complexes 1 and 2 types, [ReV(O)(Cl)3(L2-)ReV(O)(Cl)3][NBu4]2 (1, L2- = dianionic 2,5-dihydroxy 1,4-benzoquinone (DBQ2-)) and (2, L2- = dianionic chloranilic acid (CA2-) ligands), as a homogeneous electrocatalyst for water oxidation reactions in the acetonitrile-water mixture. The evolution of dioxygen gas at the anode was confirmed by a GC-TCD study. In controlled potential electrolysis (CPE), oxidation at 1.30 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) at neutral pH, 1 and 2 afforded 1+ [ReVI(O)(Cl)3(DBQ˙3-)ReVI(O)(Cl)3]- and 2+ [ReVI(O)(Cl)3(CA˙3-)ReVI(O)(Cl)3]- ions, respectively, via the redox induced electron transfer (RIET) process. Electrochemically generated species of 1+ and 2+ could be isolated in dry acetonitrile. 1+ and 2+ ions give strong EPR signals in fluid solution as well as under frozen glass conditions due to the [ReVI(O)(Cl)3(L˙3-)ReVI(O)(Cl)3]- ↔ [ReVI(O)(Cl)3(L2-)ReV(O)(Cl)3]- (where L2- = DBQ2- and CA2-) equilibrium. However, the continuation of the CPE study (1.30 V vs. Ag/AgCl) in the presence of acetonitrile-water mixture oxidised the in situ generated species of 1+ and 2+ to higher valent ReVIO species. These species (1+ and 2+) bound water through the water nucleophilic attack (WNA) to produce peroxide intermediate species of [ReV(OOH)(Cl)3(DBQ2-)ReV(OOH)(Cl)3] (A1) and [ReV(OOH)(Cl)3(CA2-)ReV(OOH)(Cl)3] (A2) for catalysts 1 and 2, respectively. Interestingly, A1 and A2 were authenticated and analysed by ESI mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy and were the active precursors of this water oxidation process. The extent of current generation under similar conditions suggested that complex 1 is superior to complex 2 for the water oxidation reaction. Notably, the maximum turnover frequency (TOFmax) of catalysts 1 and 2 were 2.1 and 1.6 s-1 at 0.27 V and 0.24 V over potential, respectively, which is very significant in WOR.

Abstract
Metalloenzymes make extensive use of manganese centers for oxidative catalysis, including water oxidation; the need to develop improved synthetic catalysts for these processes has long motivated the development of bioinspired manganese complexes. Herein, we report a series of bpy-(imidazole)n (n = 1 or 2) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl) ligands and their Mn2+ complexes. Four Mn2+ complexes are structurally characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, revealing different tridentate and tetradentate ligand coordination modes. Cyclic voltammetry of the complexes is consistent with ligand-centered reductions and metal-centered oxidations, and UV-vis spectroscopy complemented by TD-DFT calculations shows primarily ligand-centered transitions with minor contributions from charge-transfer type transitions at higher energies. In solution, ESI-MS studies provide evidence for ligand reorganization, suggesting complex speciation behavior. The oxidation of the complexes in the presence of water is probed using cyclic voltammetry, but the low stability of the complexes in aqueous solution leads to decomposition and precludes their ultimate application as aqueous electrocatalysts. Possible reasons for the low stability and suggestions for improvement are discussed.

Abstract
The present article deals with the structurally and spectroelectrochemically characterized newer class of ruthenium-azoheteroarenes [RuII(Ph-trpy)(Cl)(L)]ClO4, [1]ClO4-[3]ClO4 (Ph-trpy: 4'-phenyl-2,2':6',2″-terpyridine; L1: 2,2'-azobis(benzothiazole) ([1]ClO4); L2: 2,2'-azobis(6-methylbenzothiazole) ([2]ClO4); L3: 2,2'-azobis(6-chlorobenzothiazole) ([3]ClO4)). A collective consideration of experimental (i.e., structural and spectroelectrochemical) and theoretical (DFT calculations) results of [1]ClO4-[3]ClO4 established selective stabilization of (i) the unperturbed azo (N═N)0 function of L, (ii) the exclusive presence of the isomeric form involving the N(azo) donor of L trans to Cl, and (iii) the presence of extended, hydrogen-bonded trimeric units in the asymmetric unit of [2]ClO4 (CH---O) via the involvement of ClO4- anions. The detailed electrochemical studies revealed metal-based oxidation of [RuII(Ph-trpy)(Cl)(L)]+ (1+-3+) to [RuIII(Ph-trpy)(Cl)(L)]2+ (12+-32+); however, the electronic form of the first reduced state (1-3) could be better represented by its mixed RuII(Ph-trpy)(Cl)(L•-)/RuIII(Ph-trpy)(Cl)(L2-) state. Both native (1+-3+) and reduced (1-3) states exhibited weak lower energy transitions within the range of 1000-1200 nm. Further, [1]ClO4-[3]ClO4 delivered an electrochemical OER (oxygen evolution reaction) process in alkaline medium on immobilizing them to a carbon cloth support, which divulged an amplified water oxidation feature for [2]ClO4 due to the presence of electron-donating methyl groups in the L2 backbone. The faster OER kinetics and high catalytic stability of [2]ClO4 could also be rationalized by its lowest Tafel slope (85 mV dec-1) and choronoamperometric experiment (stable up to 12 h), respectively, along with high Faradic efficiency (∼97%). A comparison of [2]ClO4 with the reported analogous ruthenium complexes furnished its excellent intrinsic water oxidation activity.

Abstract
![]()
The design of molecular
water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) requires
a rational approach that considers the intermediate steps of the catalytic
cycle, including water binding, deprotonation, storage of oxidizing
equivalents, O–O bond formation, and O2 release.
We investigated several of these properties for a series of base metal
complexes (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) bearing two variants of a pentapyridyl
ligand framework, of which some were reported previously to be active
WOCs. We found that only [Fe(Py5OMe)Cl]+ (Py5OMe = pyridine-2,6-diylbis[di-(pyridin-2-yl)methoxymethane])
showed an appreciable catalytic activity with a turnover number (TON)
= 130 in light-driven experiments using the [Ru(bpy)3]2+/S2O82– system at
pH 8.0, but that activity is demonstrated to arise from the rapid
degradation in the buffered solution leading to the formation of catalytically
active amorphous iron oxide/hydroxide (FeOOH), which subsequently
lost the catalytic activity by forming more extensive and structured
FeOOH species. The detailed analysis of the redox and water-binding
properties employing electrochemistry, X-ray absorption spectroscopy
(XAS), UV–vis spectroscopy, and density-functional theory (DFT)
showed that all complexes were able to undergo the MIII/MII oxidation, but none was able to yield a detectable
amount of a MIV state in our potential window (up to +2
V vs SHE). This inability was traced to (i) the preference for binding
Cl– or acetonitrile instead of water-derived species
in the apical position, which excludes redox leveling via proton coupled electron transfer, and (ii) the lack of sigma donor
ligands that would stabilize oxidation states beyond MIII. On that basis, design features for next-generation molecular WOCs
are suggested. We scrutinize the water oxidation
activity for pentapyridyl
metal complexes [MII(Py5R)Cl]+ (M = Mn, Fe,
Co, Ni; R = OH, OMe). Analysis of their stability, redox, and water-binding
properties shows that the complexes are not able to reach high-valent
intermediate states and do not catalyze water oxidation in their molecular
form.

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
So far, many studies on the oxygen-evolution reaction (OER) by Mn oxides have been focused on activity; however, the identification of the best performing active site and corresponding catalytic cycles is also of critical importance. Herein, the real intrinsic activity of layered Mn oxide toward OER in Fe/Ni-free KOH is studied for the first time. At pH ≈ 14, the onset of OER for layered Mn oxide in the presence of Fe/Ni-free KOH happens at 1.72 V (vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)). In the presence of Fe ions, a 190 mV decrease in the overpotential of OER was recorded for layered Mn oxide as well as a significant decrease (from 172.8 to 49 mV/decade) in the Tafel slope. Furthermore, we find that both Ni and Fe ions increase OER remarkably in the presence of layered Mn oxide, but that pure layered Mn oxide is not an efficient catalyst for OER without Ni and Fe under alkaline conditions. Thus, pure layered Mn oxide and electrolytes are critical factors in finding the real intrinsic activity of layered Mn oxide for OER. Our results call into question the high efficiency of layered Mn oxides toward OER under alkaline conditions and also elucidate the significant role of Ni and Fe impurities in the electrolyte in the presence of layered Mn oxide toward OER under alkaline conditions. Overall, a computational model supports the conclusions from the experimental structural and electrochemical characterizations. In particular, substitutional doping with Fe decreases the thermodynamic OER overpotential up to 310 mV. Besides, the thermodynamic OER onset potential calculated for the Fe-free structures is higher than 1.7 V (vs RHE) and, thus, not in the stability range of Mn oxides.

Abstract
The formidable reactivity of the oxygen-evolving center near photosystem II is largely based on its protein environment that stabilizes it during catalysis. Inspired by this concept, the water-soluble Mn12 clusters Mn12 O12 (O2 CC6 H3 (OH)2 )16 (H2 O)4 (3,5DHMn12 ) and Mn12 O12 (O2 CC6 H3 (OH)3 )16 (H2 O)4 (3,4,5THMn12 ) were developed as efficient electrocatalysts for water oxidation. In this work, the role of the -OH groups in the electrocatalytic process was explored by describing the structural and electrocatalytic properties of two new Mn12 clusters, 3,4DHMn12 and 2,3DHMn12 , having one -OH group in the meta position relative to the benzoate-Mn moiety, and one at the para or ortho position, respectively. The Mn centers in 3,4DHMn12 were discovered to have lower oxidation potential compared with those in 2,3DHMn12 , and thus, 3,4DHMn12 can catalyze water oxidation with higher rate and TON than 2,3DHMn12 . Hence, the role of the -OH groups in the electrocatalysis was established, being involved in electronic stabilization of the Mn centers or in proton shuttling.

Abstract
[Ru(Rtpy)(bpy)(H2O)]2+ (1R; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, and Rtpy = 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine derivatives) complexes with a variety of 4'-substituent groups on Rtpy were synthesized and characterized to reveal the effects of substituents on their structures, physicochemical properties, and catalytic activities for water oxidation. The geometric structures of 1R are not considerably influenced by the electron-donating ability of the 4'-substituent groups on Rtpy. Similar multistep proton-coupled electron transfer reactions were observed for 1R, and the redox potentials for each oxidation step tended to decrease with an increase in the electron-donating ability of the substituent, which is explained by the increased electron density on the Ru center by electron-donating groups, stabilizing the positive charge that builds up upon oxidation. This is consistent with the red-shift of the absorption bands around 480 nm assigned to the metal-to-ligand charge transfer transition for 1R due to the increased d orbital energy level of the Ru center. The turnover frequency (kO2) of 1R for water oxidation catalysis, however, depended greatly on the Rtpy ligands, varying from 0.05 × 10-2 to 44 × 10-2 s-1 (as the highest kO2 was observed for R = ethoxy) by a factor of 880. A critical electron-donating ability of the 4'-substituent groups with a narrow range of Hammett constants (σp = -0.27 to -0.24) found for the highest kO2 values is valuable for understanding the great difficulty in the search for efficient water oxidation catalysts. On another front, the kO2 values increased with a decrease in the redox potentials of RuIV═O/RuV═O for 1R, indicating that the potential of formation of RuV═O species for 1R is crucial for water oxidation catalysis under the employed conditions.

Abstract
Water splitting, in which water molecules can be transformed into hydrogen and oxygen, is an appealing energy conversion and transformation strategy to address the environmental and energy crisis. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is dynamically slow, which limits energy conversion efficiency during the water-splitting process and requires high-efficiency water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) to overcome the OER energy barrier. It is generally accepted that multinuclear WOCs possess superior OER performances, as demonstrated by the CaMn4 O5 cluster in photosystem II (PSII), which can catalyze the OER efficiently with a very low overpotential. Inspired by the CaMn4 O5 cluster in PSII, some multinuclear WOCs were synthesized that could catalyze water oxidation. In addition, some mononuclear molecular WOCs also show high water oxidation activity. However, it cannot be excluded that the high activity arises from the formation of dimeric species. Recently, some mononuclear heterogeneous WOCs showed a high water oxidation activity, which testified that mononuclear active sites with suitable coordination surroundings could also catalyze water oxidation efficiently. This Review focuses on recent progress in the development of mono-/multinuclear homo- and heterogeneous catalysts for water oxidation. The active sites and possible catalytic mechanisms for water oxidation on the mono-/multinuclear WOCs are provided.

Abstract
Herein, a novel DABCO-based dicationic ionic liquid (bis-DIL) was easily prepared from the sonication of DABCO with 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol and then characterized by several techniques. Thereafter, under the ultimate green conditions, the performance of the bis-DIL was examined for the sono-synthesis of a new library of bis-2-amino-5-arylidenethiazol-4-ones via one-pot pseudo-five-component Knoevenagel condensation reaction of appropriate dialdehydes, rhodanine and amines. This protocol is tolerant towards several mono- and dialdehydes, excellently high yielding and affording access to the desired products in a single step within a short reaction time. Compared with the conventional methodologies, the proposed method displayed several remarkable merits such as milder reaction conditions without any side product, green solvent media, recording well in a variety of green metrics and applicability in gram-scale production. The recyclability of the bis-DIL was also investigated with an average recovered yield of 97% for six sequential cycles without any significant loss of the activity.

Abstract
Development of an efficient photo-anode system for water oxidation is key to the success of artificial photosynthesis. We previously assembled photosystem II (PSII) proteins, which are an efficient natural photocatalyst for water oxidation, on a gold nanoparticle (GNP) to prepare a PSII-GNP conjugate as an anode system in a light-driven water-splitting nano-device (Noji et al., J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 2011, 2, 2448-2452). In the current study, we characterized the fluorescence property of the PSII-GNP conjugate by static and time-resolved fluorescence measurements, and compared with that of free PSII proteins. It was shown that in a static fluorescence spectrum measured at 77 K, the amplitude of a major peak at 683 nm was significantly reduced and a red shoulder at 693 nm disappeared in PSII-GNP. Time-resolved fluorescence measurements showed that picosecond components at 683 nm decayed faster by factors of 1.4-2.1 in PSII-GNP than in free PSII, explaining the observed quenching of the major fluorescence peak. In addition, a nanosecond-decay component arising from a 'red chlorophyll' at 693 nm was lost in time-resolved fluorescence of PSII-GNP, probably due to a structural perturbation of this chlorophyll by interaction with GNP. Consistently with these fluorescence properties, degradation of PSII during strong-light illumination was two times slower in PSII-GNP than in free PSII. The enhanced durability of PSII is an advantageous property of the PSII-GNP conjugate in the development of an artificial photosynthesis device.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of biomimetic Mn complexes to catalyze oxygen evolution is a very appealing goal because water oxidation in nature employs a Mn complex. Recently, the mononuclear Mn complex [LMnII (H2 O)2 ]2+ [1, L=Py2 N(tBu)2 , Py=pyridyl] was reported to catalyze water oxidation electrochemically at an applied potential of 1.23 V at pH 12.2 in aqueous solution. Density functional calculations were performed to elucidate the mechanism of water oxidation promoted by this catalyst. The calculations showed that 1 can lose two protons and one electron readily to produce [LMnIII (OH)2 ]+ (2), which then undergoes two sequential proton-coupled electron-transfer processes to afford [LMnV OO]+ (4). The O-O bond formation can occur through direct coupling of the two oxido ligands or through nucleophilic attack of water. These two mechanisms have similar barriers of approximately 17 kcal mol-1 . The further oxidation of 4 to generate [LMnVI OO]2+ (5), which enables O-O bond formation, has a much higher barrier. In addition, ligand degradation by C-H activation has a similar barrier to that for the O-O bond formation, and this explains the relatively low turnover number of this catalyst.

Abstract
Water splitting is the key step towards artificial photosystems for solar energy conversion and storage in the form of chemical bonding. The oxidation of water is the bottle-neck of this process that hampers its practical utility; hence, efficient, robust, and easy to make catalytic systems based on cheap and earth-abundant materials are of exceptional importance. Herein, an in situ generated cobalt catalyst, [CoII (TCA)2 (H2 O)2 ] (TCA=1-mesityl-1,2,3-1H-triazole-4-carboxylate), that efficiently conducts photochemical water oxidation under near-neutral conditions is presented. The catalyst showed high stability under photolytic conditions for more than 3 h of photoirradiation. During electrochemical water oxidation, the catalytic system assembled a catalyst film, which proved not to be cobalt oxide/hydroxide as normally expected, but instead, and for the first time, generated a molecular cobalt complex that incorporated the organic ligand bound to cobalt ions. The catalyst film exhibited a low overpotential for electrocatalytic water oxidation (360 mV) and high oxygen evolution peak current densities of 9 and 2.7 mA cm-2 on glassy carbon and indium-doped tin oxide electrodes, respectively, at only 1.49 and 1.39 V (versus a normal hydrogen electrode), respectively, under neutral conditions. This finding, exemplified on the in situ generated cobalt complex, might be applicable to other molecular systems and suggests that the formation of a catalytic film in electrochemical water oxidation experiments is not always an indication of catalyst decomposition and the formation of nanoparticles.

Abstract
Water oxidation is a fundamental step in artificial photosynthesis for solar fuels production. In this study, we report a single-site Ru-based water oxidation catalyst, housing a dicarboxylate-benzimidazole ligand, that mediates both chemical and light-driven oxidation of water efficiently under neutral conditions. The importance of the incorporation of the negatively charged ligand framework is manifested in the low redox potentials of the developed complex, which allows water oxidation to be driven by the mild one-electron oxidant [Ru(bpy)3 ]3+ (bpy=2,2'-bipyridine). Furthermore, combined experimental and DFT studies provide insight into the mechanistic details of the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
The title compound, [Mn2(C7H4NO4)4(C6H7N)4] or [Mn2(μ-NBz)2(κ2-NBz)2(4-Mepy)4], where NBz is 4-nitro-benzoate and 4-Mepy is 4-methyl-pyridine, is a centrosymmetric dinuclear complex in which the MnII atoms are bridged by two NBz ligands with Mn⋯Mn = 4.1324 (4) Å. The MnII atom in this dimeric species is present in a distorted octa-hedral environment with the four coordinating O atoms forming the equatorial plane and the two pyridyl N atoms occupying the axial sites. An important structural feature of the dimeric complex is that each of the bridging carboxyl-ate ligands binds to the metal ions in an asymmetric fashion involving bent and linear Mn-O-C units. The crystal packing is consolidated by C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π interactions.

Abstract
Using 4-substituted derivatives of phenol-based compartmental Schiff-base hydroxyl-rich ligand, four multifunctional binuclear Zn(II) complexes have been synthesized and characterized. The photophysical properties of these complexes were explored in the solid state, in solutions, and in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) matrix, which revealed their good potential as tunable solid state emitters. Some of these complexes acted as efficient catalysts for the transesterification of esters and canola oil showing their potential in biodiesel generation. Mechanistic investigations using ESI-MS revealed that the transesterification catalyzed by these complexes proceeds through two types of acyl intermediates.

Abstract
A new class of bis-thiosemicarbazones was designed and synthesised by the condensation of 2,6-diformylphenol derivatives and thiosemicarbazide using either ultrasound or conventional methods. Both thiosemicarbazone groups of these derivatives underwent a heterocyclisation process to give a series of novel bis-thiazole derivatives as major products. The structures of all the synthesised compounds were characterised by multinuclear NMR (1H and 13C), IR, HRMS and elemental analyses.

Abstract
All cyanobacteria, algae, and plants use a similar water-oxidizing catalyst for water oxidation. This catalyst is housed in Photosystem II, a membrane-protein complex that functions as a light-driven water oxidase in oxygenic photosynthesis. Water oxidation is also an important reaction in artificial photosynthesis because it has the potential to provide cheap electrons from water for hydrogen production or for the reduction of carbon dioxide on an industrial scale. The water-oxidizing complex of Photosystem II is a Mn-Ca cluster that oxidizes water with a low overpotential and high turnover frequency number of up to 25-90 molecules of O2 released per second. In this Review, we discuss the atomic structure of the Mn-Ca cluster of the Photosystem II water-oxidizing complex from the viewpoint that the underlying mechanism can be informative when designing artificial water-oxidizing catalysts. This is followed by consideration of functional Mn-based model complexes for water oxidation and the issue of Mn complexes decomposing to Mn oxide. We then provide a detailed assessment of the chemistry of Mn oxides by considering how their bulk and nanoscale properties contribute to their effectiveness as water-oxidizing catalysts.

Chem Sci 2015; 7:1430-1439.

Abstract
The combination of porphyrin as a sensitizer and a ruthenium complex as a water oxidation catalyst (WOC) is promising to exploit highly efficient molecular artificial photosynthetic systems. A covalently-linked ruthenium-based WOC-zinc porphyrin (ZnP) sensitizer dyad was assembled on a TiO2 electrode for visible-light driven water oxidation. The water oxidation activity was found to be improved in comparison to the reference systems with the simple combination of the individual WOC and ZnP as well as with ZnP solely, demonstrating the advantage of the covalent linking approach over the non-covalent one. More importantly, via vectorial multi-step electron transfer triggered by visible light, the dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cell (DSPEC) achieved a broader PEC response in the visible region than DSPECs with conventional ruthenium-based sensitizers. Initial incident photon-to-current efficiencies of 18% at 424 nm and 6.4% at 564 nm were attained under monochromatic illumination and an external bias of -0.2 V vs. NHE. Fast electron transfer from the WOC to the photogenerated radical cation of the sensitizer through the covalent linkage may suppress undesirable charge recombination, realizing the moderate performance of water oxidation. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis of the photoanodes before and after the DSPEC operation suggested that most of the ruthenium species exist at higher oxidation states, implying that the insufficient oxidation potential of the ZnP moiety for further oxidizing the intermediate ruthenium species at the photoanode is at least the bottleneck of the system.
