Electrochemical CO oxidation by several carbon-supported rhodium tetraphenylporphyrins with systematically varied meso-substituents was investigated. A quantitative analysis revealed that the p-substituents on the meso-phenyl groups significantly affected CO oxidation activity. The electrocatalytic reaction was characterized in detail based on the spectroscopic and X-ray structural results as well as electrochemical analyses. The difference in the activity among Rh pophyrins is discussed in terms of the properties of p-substituents along with a proposed reaction mechanism. Rhodium tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (Rh(TCPP)), which exhibited the highest activity among the porphyrins tested, oxidized CO at a high rate at much lower potentials (<0.1 V vs. a reversible hydrogen electrode, at 60 °C) than the present PtRu catalysts. This means that CO is electrochemically oxidized by this catalyst when a slight overpotential is applied during the operation of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell. This catalyst exhibited little H2 oxidation activity, in contrast to Pt-based catalysts.

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.
