  2. 1. Structural, Electronic and Reactive Properties of Pentapyridyl - Base Metal Complexes : Relevance for Water Oxidation Catalysis

    Author : Manuel Boniolo; Johannes Messinger; Antoni Llobet; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Water oxidation; Base metal complexes; Redox potential; Spin crossover; Magnetic anisotropy; Chemistry with specialization in Molecular Biomimetics; Kemi med inriktning mot molekylär biomimetik;

    Abstract : The rationalization of chemical-physical proprieties of transition metal complexes is fundamental in order to understand and tune their reactivity. In this thesis, a systematic investigation of the geometrical and electronic properties of [M(Py5OH)Cl]+ complexes (M= Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) has been performed, and their ability to act as molecular water oxidation catalysts has been probed.

  4. 2. Development of Ruthenium Catalysts for Water Oxidation

    Author : Tanja M. Laine; Björn Åkermark; Antoni Llobet; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; homogeneous catalysis; O-O bond formation; photocatalysis; ruthenium; water oxidation; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : An increasing global energy demand requires alternative fuel sources. A promising method is artificial photosynthesis. Although, the artificial processes are different from the natural photosynthetic process, the basic principles are the same, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 3. Development of metal complexes for water oxidation

    Author : Bao-Lin Lee; Björn Åkermark; Xiaodong Zou; Antoni Llobet; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : In an artificial version of photosynthesis, sunlight and water are used to produce fuels. Our research focuses on the bottleneck in this process, the photooxidation of water. In the course of developing a water oxidation catalyst, a number of metal complexes have been synthesised, characterised, and studied for catalytic activity. READ MORE
