Electrochemistry of Co–Ru hetero-dinuclear porphyrin complex in a Nafion matrix
Literature Information
Takane Imaoka, Kimihisa Yamamoto
The metallo porphyrins possessing four ionic substituents of (meso-tetrakis(N-methyl-4-pyridiniumyl)porphyrinato)ruthenium(II) (RuTMPyP) and (meso-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrinato)cobalt(II) (CoTPPS) spontaneously associate. The equilibrium constant of dissociation (Kd) of the Co–Ru porphyrin was estimated to be 5 × 10−7 mol dm−3 by Job's titration. A single redox wave based on a 2-electron transfer was observed at 0.19 V s. SCE using cyclic voltammetry in a Nafion matrix. Potential-step chronocoulometry (PSCC) and potential-step chronoamperometry (PSCA) determined the kinetics of the electron transfer (k0 = 1.47 cm s−1) from the electrode to the complex in the Nafion film, and the apparent diffusion coefficient of electrons (Dapp = 8 × 10−8 cm2 s−1) in the Nafion film. Dimerization of the Co and Ru porphyrins results in an accelerated 2-electron transfer because the electrons are transferred ia overlapping π orbitals on the porphyrin ring. The film containing the dinuclear porphyrins shows sufficient catalytic activity toward dioxygen with a 4-electron reduction, based on successive electron transfer from the electrode to dioxygen.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
