Although various reactions involved in photoexcited states of polypyridyl ruthenium(II) complexes have been extensively studied, photoisomerization of the complexes is very rare. We report the first i
Sunlight photolysis of uranyl nitrate and uranyl acetate solutions in pyridine produces uranyl peroxide complexes. To answer longstanding questions about the origin of these complexes, we conducted a
Synthesis of a monodisperse oligomer from Ru(bda) (bda = 2,2’-bipyridine-6,6’-dicarboxylate), 4,4’-bipyridine linkers and 4‑picoline end caps afforded a highly stable water oxidation catalyst. After d
A series of iridium-based complexes have been evaluated in Ce(IV)-driven water oxidation catalysis. Detailed kinetic data have been obtained from UV–vis stopped-flow experiments, and these data have
We report a trinuclear copper(II) complex, [(DAM)Cu3(μ3-O)][Cl]4 (1, DAM = dodecaaza macrotetracycle), as a homogeneous electrocatalyst for water oxidation to dioxygen in phosphate-buffered solutio
