Mononuclear ruthenium complexes with a pentadentate ligand, N,N-bis[(isoquinolin-1-yl)methyl][6-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridin-2-yl]methanamine (DIQ-Bpy), were synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, electrochemistry, and theoretical calculations. The oxidation of water by [Ru(DIQ-Bpy)(H2O)]2+ was observed in the presence of excess amounts of CeIV. Relative to [Ru(DPA-Bpy)(H2O)]2+ [DPA-Bpy = N,N-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl) -2,2-bipyridine-6-methanamine], the substitution of pyridine groups in DPA-Bpy with electron-withdrawing isoquinolines results in higher redox potential and lower activity for the oxidation of water by [Ru(DIQ-Bpy)(H2O)] 2+. A kinetic study of water oxidation by [Ru(DPA-Bpy)(H 2O)]2+ suggests a mononuclear pathway for the oxidation of water. The noncovalent interaction between isoquinoline groups in [Ru(DIQ-Bpy)(H2O)]2+, which favors the formation of dinuclear species, might account for the lower activity for water oxidation by [Ru(DIQ-Bpy)(H2O)]2+. Mononuclear Ru complexes with a pentadentate ligand, N,N-bis[(isoquinolin-1-yl)methyl][6-(pyridin-2-yl)pyridin- 2-yl]methanamine (DIQ-Bpy), were synthesized and characterized. The effects of isoquinoline groups on the electrochemistry and the activity of [Ru(DIQ-Bpy)(H2O)]2+ on water oxidation are discussed. Copyright

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) show high energy-conversion efficiency and thus emit less CO2 than conventional combustion engines. Although SOFCs can directly convert hydrocarbons such as liquefied petroleum gas, these fuels readily induce coking on the electrodes of fuel cell stacks. To avoid coking, hydrocarbons can be subjected to a preliminary endothermic steam-reforming step at a relatively low temperature using waste heat from the stack. Herein, we report that a Rh/Ce0.25Zr0.75O2 catalyst exhibited higher propane-steam-reforming activity than other Rh/Ce1?xZrxO2 catalysts and Rh/γ-Al2O3. Catalyst characterization revealed that Rh/Ce0.25Zr0.75O2 had excellent redox property and high H2O-adsorption activity, which contributed to the activation of steam and thus enhanced the propane-steam-reforming activity of this catalyst.

The synthesis and reactivity of single metal atoms in a low-valence state bound to just water, rather than to organic ligands or surfaces, is a major experimental challenge. Herein, we show a gram-scale wet synthesis of Pt11+ stabilized in a confined space by a crystallographically well-defined first water sphere, and with a second coordination sphere linked to a metal–organic framework (MOF) through electrostatic and H-bonding interactions. The role of the water cluster is not only isolating and stabilizing the Pt atoms, but also regulating the charge of the metal and the adsorption of reactants. This is shown for the low-temperature water–gas shift reaction (WGSR: CO + H2O → CO2 + H2), where both metal coordinated and H-bonded water molecules trigger a double water attack mechanism to CO and give CO2 with both oxygen atoms coming from water. The stabilized Pt1+ single sites allow performing the WGSR at temperatures as low as 50 °C.
