可见光驱动的光催化产氢同时诱导低能核反应嬗变钾为钙

报道了曙红、氯铂酸钾、氧化石墨烯和三乙醇胺混合物悬浮体系在可见光照射条件下将钾嬗变为钙的现象.在大于440 nm光照的条件下,反应体系可以产生大量的氢气,同时体系中的部分钾原子转变为钙元子.在反应过程中,悬浮混合物中的钙元素浓度持续增加,同时伴随发生质子的还原为氢和部分质子反应为氦3和氦4的反应.分析表明,在自然界的某种环境和条件下,钙有可能通过在温和条件下的低能核反应(LENR)经历钾的嬗变生成,这个过程可能与光催化产氢过程中生成的负氢有关.

将铂(Ⅱ)-四(4-羧基苯基)卟啉组装到光捕获金属有机框架中增强可见光驱动的产氢效能

氢气析出反应的分子催化剂因能够将其整合到用于光催化水分解的光捕集复合物中而受到广泛关注.研究者期望通过构建吸光网络,提高分子催化剂的光催化产氢效能.本文报道了以[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ][TCPP=meso-四(4-羧基苯基)卟啉]络合物作为光催化产氢的分子催化剂.采用氯冉酸(CA)作为电子牺牲剂可以很好地稳定光催化剂,使CA被氧化为[CA-H·]自由基.当使用三乙醇胺作为电子牺牲剂时,[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ]分解形成Pt纳米颗粒.电化学循环伏安实验结果表明,光催化产氢的第一步是质子偶联电子转移,以获得[(TCPP)Pt+H]0.然而,第二个电子转移-1.02 V的氧化还原电位不随添加三氟乙酸而位移,表明该电子转移未与质子转移耦合,得到[(TCPP)Pt+H]-.此外,第二次电子转移的峰值处产生催化波,表明氢气是由[(TCPP)Pt+H]-的质子化生成,然后再生[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ]并释放氢气.密度泛函理论计算结果表明,[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ]分子催化剂光催化产氢的机理可能先经过质子耦合电子转移反应,形成[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅰ]-NH,然后依次经过电子注入和质子化形成[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ-H]-NH中间体,最终释放H2.由于整个催化循环过程涉及多个电子的注入,光捕获网络的引入有助于提供多个光电子.因此,本文通过将[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ]掺杂生长到主要由[(TCPP)Zn^Ⅱ]构筑的金属有机框架中,构筑了与分子催化剂连接的光捕获网络,从而将其活性提高了约830倍.纳秒瞬态吸收光谱和时间分辨的磷光光谱表明,向[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ]均相溶液中加入氯冉酸会因电荷转移而缩短3[(TCPP)Pt^Ⅱ]*寿命.同样现象在金属有机框架体系中也被观察到.然而,在磷光猝灭后,瞬态吸收光谱观察到均相溶液中[(TCPP)Pt+H]0及[CA-H·]自由基信号迅速衰减,在微秒时间尺度上衰减为0,表明大部分还原的[(TCPP)Pt+H]0迅速与氧化后的[CA-H·]复合,限制了光催化氢气析出的光量子效率.然而,在金属有机框架体系中,磷光猝灭后纳秒瞬态吸收光谱在较长时间尺度观察到残留吸收带,表明随后消耗CA,向反应体系中注入电子,推动了反应的完成.本文研究了能量转移对光催化H2析出的影响,并强调了光捕获网络在多电子注入中的重要性.

三乙醇胺-Co（Ⅱ）金属胶束催化4-硝基苯酚乙酸酯水解反应

本文分别研究了在有和无CTAB及Triton x-100两种表面活性剂存在时,三乙醇胺-Co(Ⅱ)配合物催化4-硝基苯酚乙酸酯(PNPA)水解反应动力学,实验结果表明,三乙醇胺-Co(Ⅱ)配合物对PNPA水解有较强的催化作用,与金属配合物键合的水分子离解所产生的活性物种ML-OH-是金属配合物催化水解PNPA的主要因素。表面活性剂胶束的存在对金属配合物催化水解PNPA有加速作用,这种加速作用主要是由于胶束的存在增大了与配合物键合的水分子的酸离解常数,从而使活性物种的数量增加所致。建立了催化反应的动力学数学模型,获得了催化反应相关的热力学和动力学参数。     

锰配合物催化CO2加氢生成甲酸的理论研究

采用密度泛函理论(DFT)对锰配合物催化二氧化碳加氢生成甲酸的反应进行了理论研究. 整个催化循环主要包括氢气活化和二氧化碳氢化2个阶段. 计算结果表明, 甲酸的参与明显降低了氢气活化的反应能垒; 二氧化碳的氢化过程遵循外层机理并且氢转移是分步进行的, 决速步骤为氢负离子的转移过程, 自由能垒为21.0 kJ/mol. 对配合物中硫原子上的取代基R进行了调变, 研究结果表明, 当R为吸电子基团时能降低氢气裂解和二氧化碳氢化过程中质子转移的能垒, 而当R为推电子基团时有利于氢负离子的转移,当R=CF₃时整个反应的能量跨度(80.4 kJ/mol)最小.     

金属碳化钨与液相染料光敏剂协同促进光催化制氢（英文）

使用WC作为光催化材料通过水还原制氢很常见,但它通常需要与有效的光吸收剂协同才能产生有意义的光催化活性。这可归因于WC的窄带隙,导致水的氧化还原能力不足。有趣的是,我们的研究通过一种新型固液光催化体系克服了这种限制,该体系将裸WC光催化剂与液相光敏赤藓红B(Er B)相结合。这种概念的提出消除了将WC耦合到光吸收半导体的需要,这通常需要繁琐的程序来获得适当的功能化光催化复合材料。实验结果表明,在可见光(λ=520 nm)照射下,所提出的固液光催化体系产生了显著的氢气,然而,只有在三乙醇胺(TEOA)作为牺牲试剂的共同存在下。显然,仅加入WC和Er B的空白实验在典型的光催化条件下表现出几乎为零的光催化活性和无法测量的H₂生成。在光照TEOA溶液中仅存在Er B或WC的光反应中也观察到类似的活性。这些空白实验证实了所有三种成分的重要性,即WC、Er B和TEOA,它们分别作为光催化剂、光吸收剂和牺牲试剂,在我们提出的体系中产生有意义的H₂。值得注意的是,在我们的调查中系统地研究了三个关键参数,即p H值、Er B和WC浓度的影响。发现H     

Photoinduced electron transfer in platinum(II) terpyridyl acetylide chromophores: reductive and oxidative quenching and hydrogen production

A series of luminescent platinum(II) terpyridyl acetylide complexes, ([Pt(tpy)(CCPh)]ClO4 (1) and [Pt(ttpy)(CC-p-C6H4R)]ClO4, where tpy=terpyridine, ttpy=4'-p-tolylterpyridine, R=H, Cl, Me) (2-4) were studied with regard to excited-state quenching by dialkylated bipyridinium cations as electron acceptors and triethanolamine (TEOA) as an electron donor and the photogeneration of hydrogen from systems containing the chromophore, the dialkylated bipyridinium cations, TEOA, and colloidal Pt as a catalyst. The dialkylated bipyridinium cations include methyl viologen (MV2+) and a series of diquats prepared from 2,2'-bipyridine or 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine. The quenching rates for the diquats for one of the chromophores (2) are close to the diffusion-controlled limit. The most effective electron acceptor and relay for hydrogen evolution has been found to be 4,4'-dimethyl-1,1'-trimethylene-2,2'-bipyridinium (DQ4) which on photoreduction by the chromohore provides the strongest reducing agent of the diquats studied. The rate of hydrogen evolution depends in a complex way on the concentration of the bipyridinium electron relay, increasing with concentration at low concentrations and then decreasing at high concentrations. The rate of H2 photogeneration also increases with TEOA concentration at low values and eventually reaches a plateau. The most effective system examined to date consists of the chromophore 2 (2.2x10(-5) M), DQ4 (3.1x10(-4) M), TEOA (2.7x10(-2) M), and Pt colloid (6.0x10(-5) M), and has produced 800 turnovers of H2 (67% yield based on TEOA as sacrificial electron donor) after 20 h of photolysis with lambda>410 nm.     

Evaluating a time-delay of hydrogen production quantitatively in photosynthetic bacteria for stabilizing intermittency

Renewable energy is regarded as a clean energy source but has some problems, one of which is intermittency. To reduce this, the time-delay of hydrogen production by photosynthetic bacteria can be effective. In this study, we qualitatively evaluated the time-delay of hydrogen production by photosynthetic bacteria under various irradiation conditions, and we also quantitatively evaluated it by fitting the experimental data and the hydrogen production model with a genetic algorithm. As a result of model fitting, we found that the relationship between the lengths of the optimized time-delay of hydrogen production by photosynthetic bacteria and the amount of light irradiation is linear. And we also found that the time-delay of hydrogen production by photosynthetic bacteria had an upper limit under low light intensity. We have suggested the existence of an energy store mechanism in photosynthetic bacteria.     

A homogeneous system for the photogeneration of hydrogen from water based on a platinum(II) terpyridyl acetylide chromophore and a molecular cobalt catalyst

The complex [Co(dmgH)2pyCl]2+ (1, dmgH = dimethylglyoximate, py = pridine) has been used as a molecular catalyst for visible light driven hydrogen production in the presence of [Pt(tolylterpyridine)(phenylacetylide)]+ (3) as a photosensitizer and triethanolamine (TEOA) as a sacrificial reducing agent. Complex 3 is quenched oxidatively by [Co(dmgH)pyCl]2+ (1) with a rate constant kq of 1.27 x 10(9) M(-1) s(-1). Photogeneration of H2 is only seen when 1 + 3 + TEOA are all present. H2 production is maximized for this system at pH 8.5 and declines to very low levels at pH < 7 and pH > 12. Irradiation of the reaction solution initially containing 1.61 x 10(-2) M TEOA, 1.11 x 10(-5) M of 3, and 1.99 x 10(-4) M of Co catalyst 1 in MeCN/water (3:2 v/v) at pH = 8.5 for 10 h with lambda > 410 nm yields 400 turnovers of H2. When TEOA is 0.27 M, approximately 1000 turnovers are obtained after 10 h of irradiation. Spectroscopic study of the photolyses solutions suggests that H2 formation proceeds via Co(I) and protonation to form Co(III) hydride species.

Picosecond time-resolved multiplex CARS spectroscopy using optical Kerr gating

We have developed a new spectroscopic system for picosecond time-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) measurements. Using the optical Kerr gating method in conjunction with a nanosecond laser-based CARS system, a time resolution of 1 ps has been achieved. All-trans retinal in 1-butanol has been measured. The observed time-resolved CARS spectra show changes in the 0–10 ps time range, which are ascribed to the photoisomerization dynamics of all-trans retinal in solution.     

Direct measurement of S-branch N(2)-H(2) Raman linewidths using time-resolved pure rotational coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy

S-branch N(2)-H(2) Raman linewidths have been measured in the temperature region 294-1466 K using time-resolved dual-broadband picosecond pure rotational coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (RCARS). Data are extracted by mapping the dephasing rates of the CARS signal temporal decay. The J-dependent coherence decays are detected in the time domain by following the individual spectral lines as a function of probe delay. The linewidth data set was employed in spectral fits of N(2) RCARS spectra recorded in binary mixtures of N(2) and H(2) at calibrated temperature conditions up to 661 K using a standard nanosecond RCARS setup. In this region, the set shows a deviation of less than 2% in comparison with thermocouples. The results provide useful knowledge for the applicability of N(2) CARS thermometry on the fuel-side of H(2) diffusion flames.     

Photochemical Production of NADH Using Cobaloxime Catalysts and Visible-Light Energy

In this study, a visible-light-driven photocatalytic system for the generation of dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) from aqueous protons was examined using cobaloxime as a catalyst, eosin as a photosensitizer, and triethanolamine as a sacrificial electron donor. Irradiation of a reaction solution containing cobaloxime, eosin, and triethanolamine (TEOA) converted NAD(+) to NADH with a yield of 36% in a phosphate buffer. The reaction rates for the production of NADH were dependent on the concentrations of the catalyst, NAD(+), and TEOA. Introduction of an electron-donating or -withdrawing substituent in the para position of the pyridine changed the rate constant and affected the conversion efficiency. The rates obtained by the different substituents were linearly correlated with the Hammett coefficients of the introduced substituents. Last, reduction of CO(2) was carried out in the presence of formate dehydrogenase using NADH photochemically generated using the cobaloxime/eosin/TEOA system.
