Electrocatalytic reduction of alkyl iodides in tetrahydrofuran at silver electrodes

Recent interest in the electrocatalytic activity of silver towards the reduction of alkyl iodides has led us to investigate whether the effect is observed in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at room temperature. Using platinum electrodes in THF for the reduction of alkyl halides at 298 K has been hampered by the solvent window, which ‘obscures’ the voltammetric signals of interest. In order to overcome these problems, voltammetry has been performed at low temperature and was shown to extend the voltammetric window, leading to accurate electrochemical analyses and even novel changes in mechanism(s) of the reactive species following electron‐transfer (ET). Herein, it is shown that for a primary and tertiary alkyl iodide in THF, electroreduction at silver leads to a significant shift in the reduction potential to more positive values compared to platinum. In addition, following reduction, a characteristic series of oxidation peaks are observed and are shown to be due to the specific activity of iodide ions towards silver following reductive cleavage of the parent alkyl iodide. This characteristic feature is not observed with other halide ions: bromide and chloride. Preparative electrolyses at controlled‐potential have suggested that the reduction of the above alkyl iodides is a one‐electron concerted process. The ‘free’ iodide ions act as a monitor of reaction progression, and the carbon‐centred radical either dimerises and/or abstracts a hydrogen atom from the electrolyte/solvent; 1‐iodoadamantane giving percentage yields of 58% adamantane and 39% 1,1'‐biadamantane, the primary alkyl iodide, prepared in‐house, giving 67% R‐H and 25% R‐R.

Correlation between microstructure and property of electroless deposited Pt counter electrodes on plastic substrate for dye-sensitized solar cells

Flexible Pt counter electrodes (CEs) were prepared on indium-doped tin oxide coated polyethylene naphthalate (ITO-PEN) substrate by electroless deposition. The correlation between the microstructure and the property of the Pt CEs was investigated. Results showed that isolated Pt nanoparticles were uniformly distributed on the ITO surface at a short deposition duration, and then grew with the deposition duration, leading to the interconnection of adjacent Pt nanoparticles. The interconnection of Pt nanoparticles was beneficial to the electrical property of the Pt CEs, while it was unfavorable to the electrocatalytic property of the Pt CEs. A microstructure model was proposed to explain the correlation between the microstructure and the property of the Pt CEs. In addition, the Pt CEs showed low charge transfer resistance (1.66-0.58 Ω cm²), which was comparable to that (1.16 Ω cm²) of the conventional sputtered Pt CE. The high electrocatalytic property of the electroless deposited Pt CEs makes the assembled DSCs present comparable energy conversion efficiency of the DSCs using sputtered Pt CE.     

Electronic transport properties of carbon chains between Au and Ag electrodes: A first-principles study

We report first-principles calculations of the current-voltage characteristic and the conductance of carbon-based molecular wires with different length capped with sulfur ends between two metallic electrodes made of different metals. The optimized molecular structure of carbon chain in the junction is presented on the structure of polyyne. The conductance of the polyyne wires shows oscillatory behavior depending on the number of carbon atoms (triple bonds). Current rectification is found and rectification direction presents inversion with the odd and even number of carbon atoms.

Effect of fluorine in Li1.27Cr0.2Mn0.53O2 cathode for secondary lithium batteries

Fluorine substituted Li_1.27Cr_0.2Mn_0.53O₂ electrode, prepared by sol–gel method, was investigated in the present work. Thermal analysis was done on this cathode material and found to be thermally stable with a loss of weight near 300 °C. Influence of fluorine substitution on the structural and electrochemical properties of the Li_1.27Cr_0.2Mn_0.53O₂ electrode was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscope. XRD pattern of the fluorine-doped Li_1.27Cr_0.2Mn_0.53O₂ cathode material quenched at 900 °C indicates a phase pure material. The charge–discharge profile of the prepared cathode material showed that the fluorine substitution for oxygen in the cathode material resulted in improved capacity retention.
