Development of Graphene/CdSe Quantum Dots‐Co Phthalocyanine Nanocomposite for Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Nanocomposites containing CdSe quantum dots, tetra(4‐(4,6‐diaminopyrimidin‐2‐ylthio) phthalocyaninatocobalt(II)) (CoPyPc) and reduced graphene nanosheets (rGNS) were devoloped and used for the modification of a glassy carbon electrode. Characterization of the nanocomposites was done by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used for electrochemical characterization of the prepared nanocomposite for oxygen reduction reaction. The oxygen reduction activity for rGNS/CdSe‐CoPyPc nanocomposite was found to be superior over the individual nanomaterials in this study. The activity of the nanocomposite towards oxygen reduction was also tested for tolerance to methanol crossover effect using chronoamperometry (CA) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies.     

水、甲醇和乙醇液体微结构性质的Car-Parrinello 分子动力学模拟

采用Car-Parrinello 分子动力学(CPMD)方法分别研究了水、甲醇和乙醇的液体微结构性质.研究结果显示:在水、甲醇和乙醇三个体系中O…O径向分布函数曲线的第一个峰位置分别为0.278、0.276 和0.275nm; O…H径向分布函数曲线的第一个峰位置分别为0.178、0.176和0.177 nm.表明基团(氢原子、甲基、乙基)的差异对O…O第一个峰的位置影响很小.但基团的差异对径向分布函数峰高的影响却很显著,由水到乙醇第一个峰的高度逐渐变高.空间分布函数表明氧原子和氢原子在溶剂分子周围有取向地分布,这与径向分布函数所表现出尖锐的第一个峰相一致.氢键分布分析显示,水、甲醇和乙醇的平均氢键数分别为3.62、1.99 和1.87,表明水形成了网状氢键结构,而甲醇、乙醇形成链状氢键结构.

采用界面组装、欠电位沉积和氧化还原置换反应组合方法制备了单层Pt/Au复合薄膜, 并且不需要任何有机偶联剂; 组装单层Pt/Au复合薄膜为三类多层Pt/Au复合薄膜: (Pt/Au)_n、Pt_m/Au和(Pt₃/Au)_k (n、m和k分别为Pt/Au、Pt和Pt₃/Au的层数). 采用电子显微镜研究了Au纳米粒子单层膜和Pt/Au复合多层膜的形貌. 对于所有的多层膜电极而言, 其电化学活性面积随着层数的增加而增加. 通过研究甲醇在每一类Pt/Au复合薄膜上的氧化电流密度, 考察了其对甲醇的电催化和抗毒化性能. 对于同一类复合薄膜而言, 甲醇分别在(Pt/Au)₃、Pt₃/Au和(Pt₃/Au)₂电极上均具有最大的氧化电流密度, 且优于本体Pt电极. 在这三种电极中, (Pt/Au)₃电极无论从电流密度上还是从抗毒化能力上讲, 其性能是最好的, 而且其抗毒化能力也优于商业Pt/C催化剂. 这种良好的催化性能源于Au和Pt之间最大化的协同效应, 这取决于Pt和Au原子比率以及Pt纳米层和Au纳米层之间的排布方式.     

Pathways of Methane Transformation over Copper-Exchanged Mordenite as Revealed by In Situ NMR and IR Spectroscopy

The reaction of methane with copper-exchanged mordenite with two different Si/Al ratios was studied by means of in situ NMR and infrared spectroscopies. The detection of NMR signals was shown to be possible with high sensitivity and resolution, despite the presence of a considerable number of paramagnetic Cu^II species. Several types of surface-bonded compounds were found after reaction, namely molecular methanol, methoxy species, dimethyl ether, mono- and bidentate formates, Cu^I monocarbonyl as well as carbon monoxide and dioxide, which were present in the gas phase. The relative fractions of these species are strongly influenced by the reaction temperature and the structure of the copper sites and is governed by the Si/Al ratio. While methoxy species bonded to Brønsted acid sites, dimethyl ether and bidentate formate species are the main products over copper-exchange mordenite with a Si/Al ratio of 6; molecular methanol and monodentate formate species were observed mainly over the material with a Si/Al ratio of 46. These observations are important for understanding the methane partial oxidation mechanism and for the rational design of the active materials for this reaction.     

A New Polymeric Framework Formed by the Self Assembly of 5,10,15,20-tetra(3-pyridyl)porphyrin,HgI2 And C60

The X-ray structure of H₂T(3-Py)P·HgI₂·C_60, cocrystallized from a chlorobenzene/methanol solvent mixture containing 5,10,15,20- tetra(3-pyridyl)porphyrin, HgI₂ and C₆₀, has been determined. A new two dimensional arrangement of the tetra(3-pyridyl)porphyrin molecules joined by coordination to HgI₂ is formed. These assemblies are connected by close C₆₀-porphyrin π–π interactions leading to the alignment of the porphyrins into linear alternating fullerene porphyrin columns. The structure is compact with no significant cavities.     

Monomeric Copper(II) Sites Supported on Alumina Selectively Convert Methane to Methanol

Monomeric Cu^II sites supported on alumina, prepared using surface organometallic chemistry, convert CH₄ to CH₃OH selectively. This reaction takes place by formation of CH₃O surface species with the concomitant reduction of two monomeric Cu^II sites to Cu^I, according to mass balance analysis, infrared, solid‐state nuclear magnetic resonance, X‐ray absorption, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy studies. This material contains a significant fraction of Cu active sites (22 %) and displays a selectivity for CH₃OH exceeding 83 %, based on the number of electrons involved in the transformation. These alumina‐supported Cu^II sites reveal that C?H bond activation, along with the formation of CH₃O‐ surface species, can occur on pairs of proximal monomeric Cu^II sites in a short reaction time.     

Aqueous Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide into Methanol with Cobalt Phthalocyanine

Conversion of CO₂ into valuable molecules is a field of intensive investigation with the aim of developing scalable technologies for making fuels using renewable energy sources. While electrochemical reduction into CO and formate are approaching industrial maturity, a current challenge is obtaining more reduced products like methanol. However, literature on the matter is scarce, and even more for the use of molecular catalysts. Here, we demonstrate that cobalt phthalocyanine, a well‐known catalyst for the electrochemical conversion of CO₂ to CO, can also catalyze the reaction from CO₂ or CO to methanol in aqueous electrolytes at ambient conditions of temperature and pressure. The studies identify formaldehyde as a key intermediate and an unexpected pH effect on selectivity. This paves the way for establishing a sequential process where CO₂ is first converted to CO which is subsequently used as a reactant to produce methanol. Under ideal conditions, the reaction shows a global Faradaic efficiency of 19.5 % and chemical selectivity of 7.5 %.
