Abstract: Oxygen reduction and water oxidation are two key processes in fuel cell applications. The oxidation of water to dioxygen is a 4H+/4 e process, while oxygen can be fully reduced to water by a 4e /4H+ process or partially reduced by fewer electrons to reactive oxygen species such as H2O2 and O2. We demonstrate that a novel manganese corrole complex behaves as a bifunctional catalyst for both the electrocatalytic generation of dioxygen as well as the reduction of dioxygen in aqueous media. Furthermore, our combined kinetic, spectroscopic, and electrochemical study of manganese corroles adsorbed on different electrode materials (down to a submolecular level) reveals mechanistic details of the oxygen evolution and reduction processes.

Rhenium(V)–oxo corrolazines: isolating redox-active ligand reactivity

Jan Paulo T. Zaragoza,a Maxime A. Sieglera and David P. Goldberg* Chem. Commun., 2015, Advance Article DOI: 10.1039/C5CC07956J Received 22 Sep 2015, Accepted 15 Oct 2015 First published online 28 Oct 2015 http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2015/cc/c5cc07956j#!divAbstract Abstract The synthesis of the first example of a third-row metallocorrolazine characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction is reported. This ReV(O) porphyrinoid complex shows an exclusively ligand-based reactivity with strong acids and oxidizing agents. The one-electron oxidized π-radical-cation complex is capable of H-atom abstraction.

C–H Bond Oxidation Catalyzed by an Imine-Based Iron Complex: A Mechanistic Insight

Chem., 2015, 54 (21), pp 10141–10152 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.5b01500 Publication Date (Web): October 12, 2015 A family of imine-based nonheme iron(II) complexes (LX)2Fe(OTf)2 has been prepared, characterized, and employed as C–H oxidation catalysts. Ligands LX (X = 1, 2, 3, and 4) stand for tridentate imine ligands resulting from spontaneous condensation of 2-pycolyl-amine and 4-substituted-2-picolyl aldehydes. Fast and quantitative formation of the complex occurs just upon mixing aldehyde, amine, and Fe(OTf)2 in a 2:2:1 ratio in acetonitrile solution. The solid-state structures of (L1)2Fe(OTf)(ClO4) and (L3)2Fe(OTf)2 are reported, showing a low-spin octahedral iron center, with the lig...
