酸性溶液中Fe2+ /Fe3+相互转换对电极还原行为的影响

采用线性扫描伏安法和循环伏安法研究了含有Cl^-、SO₄^2-的酸性溶液中Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺相互转换对电极反应和Fe³⁺还原过程的影响. 结果表明: [Fe]_T=1 mol·L-1条件下,溶液中Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺的还原析出过程经过两个阶段：(1) E=0.35 V左右Fe³⁺还原成Fe²⁺过程; (2) E=-0.3 V之后H+的还原同时Fe²⁺离子与OH^-相结合生产Fe(OH)₂; Fe³⁺/Fe²⁺的相互转化主要影响Fe³⁺的第一还原阶段的还原峰电流和峰电位. |ipa/ipc|值随c(Fe³⁺ )/c(Fe²⁺ )增大而增大,且扫描速度慢时影响大,扫描速度快时影响小; 0.50 mol·L^-1 Fe²⁺+0.50 mol·L^-1 Fe³⁺时,随扫描速率的变化|ipa/ipc|值变化最小(|i_pa/i_pc|≈1.20). 同时,c(Fe³⁺ )/c(Fe²⁺ )也影响平衡电位,平衡电位随c(Fe³⁺ )/c(Fe²⁺ )增大而正移,电位从E₁=0.501 V升至E₅=0.565 V.

基于零价铝的氧化/还原技术在水处理中的应用

利用零价金属(ZVMs)处理环境污染物一直是环境治理领域的研究热点,其中以零价铁(ZVI)的研究最为广泛。近年来,零价铝(ZVAl)因其具有比ZVI更低的氧化还原电位(E⁰(Al³⁺/Al⁰)=-1.662 V, E⁰(Fe²⁺/Fe⁰)=-0.44 V)及其两性性质(反应pH可以拓展到碱性)而开始受到关注。目前环境领域关于ZVAl的研究主要集中于两类:以零价铝/氧/酸(ZVAl/O₂/H⁺)体系为核心的氧化体系和以零价铝/无氧(ZVAl/anaerobic)体系为核心的还原体系,其中前者因原位产生过氧化氢构成类Fenton氧化体系而备受关注。研究已发现,基于ZVAl的氧化/还原技术可有效去除酚类、偶氮染料、有机卤化物等有机污染物和Cr(Ⅵ)、As(Ⅲ)等无机污染物,且超声、微波、外加多金属氧酸盐(POM)、Fe²⁺等辅助手段对该技术有一定辅助效果。本文分别就基于ZVAl的氧化体系和还原体系,对其反应机理及去除水中污染物的国内外最新研究进展进行了综述和展望,以期促进ZVAl水处理技术的发展。铝作为地壳中最丰富的金属元素,ZVAl不存在像ZVI高pH值时产生沉淀的问题,相信随着ZVAl表面氧化膜这一制约因素的逐渐解决,其在水处理领域将有更广泛的应用。

金属酞菁类大环化合物对氧气还原反应催化行为的阻抗谱研究

可逆单部件燃料电池双功能催化剂La0.5Sr0.5Co0.2Fe0.8O3的制备及电化学性能研究

利用SBA-15硬模板合成La_0.5Sr_0.5Co_0.2Fe_0.8O₃(LSCF)钙钛矿材料,通过研究LSCF的电化学性能,探究制备溶剂(甲醇/乙醇)对LSCF结构、表面性质及电化学性能的影响。结果表明,乙醇溶剂制备的LSCF具有更大的比表面积和更多的氧空位浓度,从而表现出更高的电导率以及对氧还原反应(ORR)和氢氧化反应(HOR)更好的催化活性。这是因为乙醇溶剂制备的LSCF具有更多的Co²⁺/Co³⁺和Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺电子对,促进了材料的电子传导。此外,对于HOR,电极反应的速率控制步骤(RDS)是吸附的氢原子转移到反应位点;吸附的氧原子在LSCF上的还原是ORR反应的RDS。此外,由乙醇溶剂制备的LSCF组成的可逆单部件电池(RSCC)具有更好的放电和电解水性能。700℃,H₂-30%H₂O燃料下,RSCC的最大功率密度为232.9 m W...

Synthetic [FeFe]-H2ase models bearing phosphino thioether chelating ligands

Through the oxidation-reduction combination procedure, the neutral tri-substituted {2Fe3S} complex 2 was synthesized by replacing the CO ligand in 1 with phosphine. This substitution leads to the Fe-Fe bonds in 1 and 2 with large Lewis basicity difference, i.e. △pK_a^MeCN~10.     

Direct measurement of the hydrogen-bonding effect on the intrinsic redox potentials of [4Fe-4S] cubane complexes

To probe how H-bonding effects the redox potential changes in Fe-S proteins, we produced and studied a series of gaseous cubane-type analogue complexes, [Fe(4)S(4)(SEt)(3)(SC(n)H(2n+1))](2-) and [Fe(4)S(4)(SEt)(3)(SC(n)H(2n)OH)](2-) (n = 4, 6, 11; Et = C(2)H(5)). Intrinsic redox potentials for the [Fe(4)S(4)](2+/3+) redox couple involved in these complexes were measured by photoelectron spectroscopy. The oxidation energies from [Fe(4)S(4)(SEt)(3)(SC(n)H(2n)OH)](2-) to [Fe(4)S(4)(SEt)(3)(SC(n)H(2n)OH)](-) were determined directly from the photoelectron spectra to be approximately 130 meV higher than those for the corresponding [Fe(4)S(4)(SEt)(3)(SC(n)H(2n+1))](2-) systems, because of the OH...S hydrogen bond in the former. Preliminary Monte Carlo and density functional calculations showed that the H-bonding takes place between the -OH group and the S on the terminal ligand in [Fe(4)S(4)(SEt)(3)(SC(6)H(12)OH)](2-). The current data provide a direct experimental measure of a net H-bonding effect on the redox potential of [Fe(4)S(4)] clusters without the perturbation of other environmental effects.     

Structural,spectroscopic, and redox consequences of a central ligand in the FeMoco of nitrogenase: a density functional theoretical study

Broken symmetry density functional and electrostatics calculations have been used to shed light on which of three proposed atoms, C, N, or O, is most likely to be present in the center of the FeMoco, the active site of nitrogenase. At the Mo(4+)4Fe(2+)3Fe(3+) oxidation level, a central N(3-) anion results in (1) calculated Fe-N bond distances that are in very good agreement with the recent high-resolution X-ray data of Einsle et al.; (2) a calculated redox potential of 0.19 eV versus the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) for FeMoco(oxidized) + e(-) --> FeMoco(resting), in good agreement with the measured value of -0.042 V in Azotobacter vinelandii; and (3) average M?ssbauer isomer shift values (IS(av) = 0.48 mm s(-1)) compatible with experiment (IS(av) = 0.40 mm s(-1)). At the more reduced Mo(4+)6Fe(2+)1Fe(3+) level, the calculated geometry around a central N(3-) anion still correlates well with the X-ray data, but the average M?ssbauer isomer shift value (IS(av) = 0.54 mm s(-1)) and the redox potential of -2.21 eV show a much poorer agreement with experiment. These calculated structural, spectroscopic, and redox data indicate the most likely iron oxidation state for the resting FeMoco of nitrogenase to be 4Fe(2+)3Fe(3+). At this favored oxidation state, oxygen or carbon coordination leads to (1) Fe-O distances in poor agreement and Fe-C distances in good agreement with experiment and (2) calculated redox potentials of +0.97 eV for O(2-) and -1.31 eV for C(4-). The calculated structural parameters and/or redox data suggest either O(2-) or C(4-) is unlikely as a central anion.

Sonochemical synthesis of Ce(1-x)Fe(x)O(2-δ) (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.45) and Ce(0.65)Fe(0.33)Pd(0.02)O(2-δ) nanocrystallites: oxygen storage material, CO oxidation and water gas shift catalyst

Nanocrystalline Ce(1-x)Fe(x)O(2-δ) (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.45) and Ce(0.65)Fe(0.33)Pd(0.02)O(2-δ) of ~4 nm sizes were synthesized by a sonochemical method using diethyletriamine (DETA) as a complexing agent. Compounds were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Ce(1-x)Fe(x)O(2-δ) (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.45) and Ce(0.65)Fe(0.33)Pd(0.02)O(2-δ) crystallize in fluorite structure where Fe is in +3, Ce is in +4 and Pd is in +2 oxidation state. Due to substitution of smaller Fe(3+) ion in CeO(2), lattice oxygen is activated and 33% Fe substituted CeO(2)i.e. Ce(0.67)Fe(0.33)O(1.835) reversibly releases 0.31[O] up to 600 °C which is higher or comparable to the oxygen storage capacity of CeO(2)-ZrO(2) based solid solutions (Catal. Today 2002, 74, 225-234). Due to interaction of redox potentials of Pd(2+/0)(0.89 V) and Fe(3+/2+) (0.77 V) with Ce(4+/3+) (1.61 V), Pd ion accelerates the electron transfer from Fe(2+) to Ce(4+) in Ce(0.65)Fe(0.33)Pd(0.02)O(1.815), making it a high oxygen storage material as well as a highly active catalyst for CO oxidation and water gas shift reaction. The activation energy for CO oxidation with Ce(0.65)Fe(0.33)Pd(0.02)O(1.815) is found to be as low as 38 kJ mol(-1). Ce(0.67)Fe(0.33)O(1.835) and Ce(0.65)Fe(0.33)Pd(0.02)O(1.815) have also shown high activity for the water gas shift reaction. CO conversion to CO(2) is 100% H(2) specific with these catalysts and conversion rate was found to be as high 27.2 μmoles g(-1) s(-1) and the activation energy was found to be 46.4 kJ mol(-1) for Ce(0.65)Fe(0.33)Pd(0.02)O(1.815).     

Synthesis and redox behavior of biferrocenyl-functionalized ruthenium(II) terpyridine gold clusters

Spectroscopic and electrochemical characterizations of ferrocene- and biferrocene-functionalized terpyridine octanethiolate monolayer-protected clusters were investigated and reported. The electrochemical measurements of Ru2+ coordinated with 4'-ferrocenyl-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine and 4'-biferrocenyl-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine complexes were dominated by the Ru2+/Ru3+ redox couple (E(1/2) at approximately 1.3 V), Fe(2+)/Fe(3+) redox couples (E(1/2) from approximately 0.6 to approximately 0.9 V), and terpy/terpy-/terpy2- redox couples (E(1/)(2) at ca. -1.2 and ca. -1.4 V). The substantial appreciable variations detected in the Ru2+/Ru3+ and Fe2+/Fe3+ oxidation potentials indicate that there is an interaction between the Ru2+ and Fe2+ metal centers. The coordination of the Ru2+ metal center with 4'-ferrocenyl-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine and 4'-biferrocenyl-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine leads to an intense 1[(d(pi)Fe)6] --> 1[d(pi)Fe)5(pi*terpyRu)1] transition in the visible region. The 1[(d(pi)Fe)6] -->1[d(pi)Fe)5(pi*terpyRu)1] transition observed at approximately 510 nm revealed that there was a qualitative electronic coupling between metal centers. The coordination of the Ru2+ transition metal center lowers the energy of the pi*terpy orbitals, causing this transition.     

Efficient Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) Catalysts Based on Single Iron Atoms Dispersed on a Hierarchically Structured Porous Carbon Framework

Single Fe atoms dispersed on hierarchically structured porous carbon (SA‐Fe‐HPC) frameworks are prepared by pyrolysis of unsubstituted phthalocyanine/iron phthalocyanine complexes confined within micropores of the porous carbon support. The single‐atom Fe catalysts have a well‐defined atomic dispersion of Fe atoms coordinated by N ligands on the 3D hierarchically porous carbon support. These SA‐Fe‐HPC catalysts are comparable to the commercial Pt/C electrode even in acidic electrolytes for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in terms of the ORR activity (E_1/2=0.81 V), but have better long‐term electrochemical stability (7 mV negative shift after 3000 potential cycles) and fuel selectivity. In alkaline media, the SA‐Fe‐HPC catalysts outperform the commercial Pt/C electrode in ORR activity (E_1/2=0.89 V), fuel selectivity, and long‐term stability (1 mV negative shift after 3000 potential cycles). Thus, these nSA‐Fe‐HPCs are promising non‐platinum‐group metal ORR catalysts for fuel‐cell technologies.     

A High‐Voltage Molecular‐Engineered Organic Sensitizer–Iron Redox Shuttle Pair: 1.4 V DSSC and 3.3 V SSM‐DSSC Devices

The development of high voltage solar cells is an attractive way to use sunlight for solar‐to‐fuel devices, multijunction solar‐to‐electric systems, and to power limited‐area consumer electronics. By designing a low‐oxidation‐potential organic dye ( RR9 )/redox shuttle (Fe(bpy)₃^3+/2+) pair for dye‐sensitized solar‐cell (DSSC) devices, the highest single device photovoltage (1.42 V) has been realized for a DSSC not relying on doped TiO₂. Additionally, Fe(bpy)₃^3+/2+ offers a robust, readily tunable ligand platform for redox potential tuning. RR9 can be regenerated with a low driving force (190 mV), and by utilizing the RR9 /Fe(bpy)₃^3+/2+ redox shuttle pair in a subcell for a sequential series multijunction (SSM)‐DSSC system, one of the highest known three subcell photovoltage was attained for any solar‐cell technology (3.34 V, >1.0 V per subcell).     

Topologically constrained manganese(III) and iron(III) complexes of two cross-bridged tetraazamacrocycles

A family of Mn3+ and Fe3+ complexes of 4,11-dimethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazabicyclo[6.6.2]hexadecane (1) and 4,10-dimethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazabicyclo[5.5.2]tetradecane (2) has been prepared by the chemical oxidation of the divalent manganese and iron analogues. The ligands are ethylene cross-bridged tetraazamacrocycles derived from cylam and cyclen, respectively. The synthesis and characterization of these complexes, including X-ray crystal structure determinations, are described. The structural evidence demonstrates that the tetradentate ligands enforce distorted octahedral geometries on the metal ions, with two cis sites occupied by labile ligands. Magnetic measurements reveal that the complexes are high spin with typical magnetic moments. Cyclic voltammetry shows reversible redox processes for the Fe3+/Fe2+ couples of the iron(III) complexes, while Mn3+/Mn2+ and Mn4+/Mn3+ couples were observed for the complexes with manganese(III). The manganese chemistry of 1 was studied in depth. The dichloro manganese(III) cation of 1 undergoes facile ligand substitution reactions at the labile, monodentate sites, for example substituting azide for chloride ligands. Air oxidation of the dichloro complex of Mn (1)2+ in basic solution does not give the expected mu-oxo dimeric product common to manganese. Instead, an unusual manganese(III)-OH complex has been isolated from this reaction and structurally characterized. A similar reaction under slightly different conditions gives a putative MnIII(OH)2 complex that metathesizes to MnIII(OMe)2 upon recrystallization from methanol.     

On the formation of iron(III) hydroxo acetate complexes

The formation of hydroxo acetate complexes of iron (III) ion has been studied at 25 degrees C in 3 M (Na)ClO4 ionic medium by measuring with a glass electrode the hydrogen ion concentration in Fe(ClO4)3-HClO4-NaAc mixtures (Ac = acetate ion). The acetate/metal ratio ranged from 0 to 6, the metal concentration varied from 0.005 to 0.06 M, whereas [H+] was stepwise decreased from 0.1 M to initial precipitation of hydroxo-acetates. This occurred, depending on the acetate/metal ratio, in the -log[H+] range 1.85-2.7. The potentiometric data are consistent with the presence of Fe3(OH)3Ac3(3+), Fe2(OH)2(4+), Fe3(OH)4(5+), Fe3(OH)5(4+) and, as minor species, of Fe3(OH)2Ac6+, FeAc2+, FeAc2+, FeOH2+ and Fe(OH)2+. Previously published EMF measurements with redox and glass half-cells were recalculated to refine the stability constants of FeAc2+, FeAc2+ and Fe3(OH)2Ac6+.
