The employment of a novel manganese complex as an electrocatalyst for water oxidation has been investigated in this study. The synthesized complex exhibits good catalytic activity and is capable of releasing oxygen in aqueous solution. The active species generated from the complex plays a crucial role in the electrocatalytic water oxidation process.
The employment of manganese complexes towards electrocatalytic water oxidation has gained immense interest among the scientific communities. In this present study, the reaction of Mn(CH3COO)(2)center dot 4H(2)O with the novel ligand (2-([2,2':6',2 ''-terpyridin]-4'-yl)quinoline-8-ol) (8hq-tpy) affords a dinuclear manganese complex, [Mn-II(8hq-tpy)(H2O)](2)(PF6)(2) (Mn 1). Various spectroscopic techniques have been implemented for characterization purposes, and Mn 1 is employed as electrocatalysts towards water oxidation catalysis in the aqueous medium. Electrocatalytic responses in the aqueous medium at pH 6.0 lead to the electrodeposition of heterogeneous species (MnOx) which enables the oxidation event at an applied potential of 1.24 V vs. NHE with O-2 liberation of 50.2 mu mol/L. The XPS analysis performed after executing bulk electrolysis, provide evidence for the generation of Mn-IV = 0 as the active species formed by the catalyst precursor complex Mn 1, contributing to O(2)( )evolution during the electrocatalytic water oxidation process.
