Nickel Oxyhydroxide

Nickel oxyhydroxide electrocatalysts are highly active for water oxidation and swell when electrochemically activated. In this thickness dependence study, we find only the upper surface (<5 nm) is active during water oxidation catalysis.

Organic Framework

Clean production of renewable fuels is a great challenge of our scientific community. Iridium complexes have demonstrated a superior catalytic activity in the water oxidation (WO) reaction, which is a crucial step in water splitting process. Herein, we have used a defective zirconium metal–organic framework (MOF) with UiO-66 structure as support of a highly active Ir complex based on EDTA with the formula [Ir(HEDTA)Cl]Na. The defects are induced by the partial substitution of terephthalic acid with smaller formate groups. Anchoring of the complex occurs through a post-synthetic exchange of formate anions, coordinated at the zirconium clusters of the MOF, with the free carboxylate group of the [Ir(HEDTA)Cl]− complex. The modified material was tested as a heterogeneous catalyst for the WO reaction by using cerium ammonium nitrate (CAN) as the sacrificial agent. Although turnover frequency (TOF) and turnover number (TON) values are comparable to those of other iridium heterogenized catalysts, the MOF exhibits iridium leaching not limited at the first catalytic run, as usually observed, suggesting a lack of stability of the hybrid system under strong oxidative conditions.

First Time

For the first time, we report herein bottom-up fabrication of a conductive nickel phthalocyanine-based 2D MOF and use it as a highly active electrocatalyst for OER (overpotential < 250 mV) without further pyrolysis or adding conductive materials, which can facilitate the development of 2D MOFs for energy applications.
