Inverse Effect of Covalently Attached Electron-Proton Transfer Mediator in Oxygen Reduction Reaction
In this work, the BQ/H2Q electron-proton-transfer mediator (EPTM) was covalently attached to the salophen ligand (Sal-H2Q), and its iron complex Fe(Sal-H2Q) was compared for ORR activity with the salophen complex of iron without the EPTM, using acetic acid as the external proton source in acetonitrile. The rate of ORR was found to be much higher for Fe(Sal), giving a peak current of 222 µA, while for Fe(Sal-H2Q) it was 115 µA at a similar potential. Selectivity measurements revealed that both catalysts show selective water formation. This observation holds for other solvent systems as well. The findings in this study are contrary to the general observation that covalent attachment of BQ/H2Q EPTM enhances the ORR reactivity.
