Abstract
We report on the discovery of the first two examples of cationic palladium(II)‐oxo clusters (POCs) containing f‐metal ions, [PdII6O12M8{(CH3)2AsO2}16(H2O)8]4+ (M=CeIV, ThIV), and their physicochemical characterization in the solid state, in solution and in the gas phase. The molecular structure of the two novel POCs comprises an octahedral {Pd6O12}12− core that is capped by eight MIV ions, resulting in a cationic, cubic assembly {Pd6O12MIV8}20+, which is coordinated by a total of 16 terminal dimethylarsinate and eight water ligands, resulting in the mixed PdII‐CeIV/ThIV oxo‐clusters [PdII6O12M8{(CH3)2AsO2}16(H2O)8]4+ (M=Ce, Pd6Ce8; Th, Pd6Th8). We have also studied the formation of host‐guest inclusion complexes of Pd6Ce8 and Pd6Th8 with anionic 4‐sulfocalix[n]arenes (n=4, 6, 8), resulting in the first examples of discrete, enthalpically‐driven supramolecular assemblies between large metal‐oxo clusters and calixarene‐based macrocycles. The POCs were also found to be useful as pre‐catalysts for electrocatalytic CO2‐reduction and HCOOH‐oxidation.

Abstract
AbstractElectrocatalytic activity of Pt and bimetallic PtRu nanoparticles (both Vulcan supported and unsupported) toward electrooxidation of dimethyl ether (DME), a potential small organic molecule fuel, in an acid medium (0.5 mol dm−3 H2SO4) has been significantly enhanced by dispersing them over a thin film of zirconia (ZrO2). The enhancement effects concern increases of the DME electrocatalytic current densities recorded under both cyclic voltammetric and chronoamperometric conditions. Similar effects have been observed for the oxidation of methanol. Regarding the dissimilar DME electrooxidation mechanisms at Pt and PtRu catalytic centers, the activating capabilities of zirconia seem to originate from the high population of reactive –OH groups favoring mobility of protons and the capability of inducing the oxidative removal of poisoning (CO-type) intermediates both at platinum and ruthenium catalytic sites. In the presence of the zirconia matrix, the onset potential for the oxidation of DME (particularly at PtRu) is shifted more than 50 mV toward less positive potentials. Mutual metal-support interactions are also postulated.

Abstract
The thin-layer-stacked dye-sensitized NiO photocathodes decorated with palladium nanoparticles (nPd) can be used for the visible-light-driven selective reduction of CO2, mostly to CO, at potentials starting as low as 0 V vs. RHE (compared to −0.6 V in the dark for electrocatalysis). The photosensitization of NiO by the organic dye P1, with a surface coverage of 1.5 × 10−8 mol cm−2, allows the hybrid material to absorb light in the 400–650 nm range. In addition, it improves the stability and the catalytic activity of the final material decorated with palladium nanoparticles (nPd). The resulting multi-layered-type photocathode operates according to the electron-transfer-cascade mechanism. On the one hand, the photosensitizer P1 plays a central role as it generates excited-state electrons and transfers them to nPd, thus producing the catalytically active hydride material PdHx. On the other hand, the dispersed nPd, absorb/adsorb hydrogen and accumulate electrons, thus easing the reductive electrocatalysis process by further driving the separation of charges at the photoelectrochemical interface. Surface analysis, morphology, and roughness have been assessed using SEM, EDS, and AFM imaging. Both conventional electrochemical and photoelectrochemical experiments have been performed to confirm the catalytic activity of hybrid photocathodes toward the CO2 reduction. The recorded cathodic photocurrents have been found to be dependent on the loading of Pd nanoparticles. A sufficient amount of loaded catalyst facilitates the electron transfer cascade, making the amount of dye grafted at the surface of the electrode the limiting parameter in catalysis. The formation of CO as the main reaction product is postulated, though the formation of traces of other small organic molecules (e.g. methanol) cannot be excluded.

(C) Energy-level matching between components of the modified photocathode.![]()
