A novel approach was used to synthesize a new metalloporphyrin compound TPTH-P through the reaction of a known compound, and the chemical structure of the product was verified using spectroscopic techniques. The catalytic activity of TPTH-P in the hydrogen evolution reaction was found, and the electrochemical activities of the self-assembled monolayer were characterized and evaluated using various techniques.
A novel approach was used to synthesize the 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (p-thiophenol) porphyrin (TPTH-P) (2), which involved the demethylation of tetra (p-anisole) porphyrin (1) in the presence of ZnCl2 as a catalyst and DMF as a solvent at 100 degree celsius. The demethylation step was followed by an acidification step with concentrated H2SO4 to yield the desired TPTH-P (2) in an almost quantitative yield (95%). The chemical structure of the synthesized porphyrin thiol (TPTH-P) (2) was verified through spectroscopic techniques (NMR, IR, UV-Vis). The catalytic activity of TPTH-P in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was investigated in 0.1 M of H2SO4 and 1 M of KNO3. A self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of TPTH-P was formed on a gold electrode. The immersion time during SAM formation and the electrochemical activation cycles in H2SO4 were found to be important to enhancing the activity of the Au-TPTH-P electrode in the HER. Contact angle measurements and electrochemical techniques, including cyclic voltammetry (CV), linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and chronoamperometry, were used to characterize and evaluate the electrochemical activities of the SAM.
