A comprehensive study of the bulk solid OsCl3 and the molecular ion [Os(bpy)(2)(CO)Cl](+) is presented illustrating the application of RIXS and HERFD XANES spectroscopies to the investigation of both bulk materials and molecular complexes. In order to analyze the experimental results, DFT simulations were performed taking into account spin-orbit interaction. Calculations for both compounds resulted in good agreement with the experimental RIXS and HERFD XANES data, shedding light on the details of their local atomic and electronic structure. In particular, the spatial distribution of molecular orbitals was obtained, which allowed the determination of the origin of the absorption peaks. It was shown that for materials containing heavy atoms, only the application of advanced RIXS and HERFD XANES spectroscopies makes it possible to extract the information on local atomic and electronic structure details from XANES data.

Synthesis, Characterization and Photoactivation Studies on the Novel Pt(IV)-Based [Pt(OCOCH3)3(phterpy)] Complex

Giovanni Canil, Juan Gurruchaga-Pereda, Simona Braccini, Lorella Marchetti, Tiziana Funaioli, Fabio Marchetti, Alessandro Pratesi, Luca Salassa, Chiara Gabbiani

Summary: Photoactivatable Pt(IV) prodrugs have great potential as metal-based drugs due to their chemical inertness in oxidized form and selective targeting compared to Pt(II) compounds. A new Pt(IV) complex, soluble in water and unreactive until reduction, was synthesized. The complex exhibited rapid and efficient photoreduction with visible light, facilitated by a catalytic system based on flavin and NADH. The reactivity of the prodrug against biological targets was only observed after photoreduction to its Pt(II) analogue.

Lithium-Directed Transformation of Amorphous Iridium (Oxy)hydroxides To Produce Active Water Oxidation Catalysts

Jonathan Ruiz Esquius, David J. Morgan, Gerardo Algara Siller, Diego Gianolio, Matteo Aramini, Leopold Lahn, Olga Kasian, Simon A. Kondrat, Robert Schloegl, Graham J. Hutchings, Rosa Arrigo, Simon J. Freakley

Summary: The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is crucial for future energy systems based on water electrolysis. Iridium oxides show promise as catalysts due to their corrosion resistance in acidic and oxidizing conditions. The transformation of highly active iridium (oxy)-hydroxides prepared using alkali metal bases into rutile IrO2 at high temperatures (>350 degrees C) results in poor activity, but the transformation into Li-intercalated IrOx retains comparative activity and improved stability. This nanocrystalline lithium iridate form could be more resistant to industrial procedures and help stabilize the high populations of redox active sites in amorphous iridium (oxy)hydroxides.

Active and durable R2MnRuO7 pyrochlores with low Ru content for acidic oxygen evolution

Dmitry Galyamin, Jorge Torrero, Isabel Rodriguez, Manuel J. Kolb, Pilar Ferrer, Laura Pascual, Mohamed Abdel Salam, Diego Gianolio, Veronica Celorrio, Mohamed Mokhtar, Daniel Garcia Sanchez, Aldo Saul Gago, Kaspar Andreas Friedrich, Miguel A. Pena, Jose Antonio Alonso, Federico Calle-Vallejo, Maria Retuerto, Sergio Rojas

Summary: The study finds that low-ruthenium-content pyrochlores (R2MnRuO7, R = Y, Tb, and Dy) exhibit high activity and durability for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic media. Among them, Y2MnRuO7 is the most stable catalyst, showing a voltage of 1.5 V at 10 mA cm(-2) for 40 h, or 5000 cycles up to 1.7 V. Experimental and computational results indicate that the excellent performance is attributed to the Ru sites embedded in RuMnOx surface layers. A water electrolyzer with Y2MnRuO7 and only 0.2 mgRu cm(-2) achieves a current density of 1 A cm(-2) at 1.75 V, remaining stable at 200 mA cm(-2) for over 24 h. These findings suggest further investigation on Ru catalysts with the goal of enhancing OER performance through a partial replacement of Ru with inexpensive cations. Ru-pyrochlores can serve as alternative anodes of PEM water electrolyzers, and their high performance is attributed to the Ru sites embedded in RuMnOx surface layers. The durability of a water electrolyzer with Y2MnRuO7 and only 0.2 mgRu cm(-2) has been successfully demonstrated.

Catlow, Rosa Arrigo

Summary: Operando soft and hard X-ray spectroscopic techniques were used to investigate Zn-containing Cu nanostructured electrocatalysts in CO2 hydrogenation reaction. The study reveals that Zn is alloyed with Cu in the bulk of the nanoparticles, while low reducible Cu(I)-O species are consumed at the interface. The Cu-Zn system represents the optimal active ensembles with stabilized Cu(I)-O, which activates CO2 and supplies H atoms for the hydrogenation reaction.

Summary: Photocatalytic hydrogen production is a promising alternative energy route. In this study, operando spectroscopy was used to understand the structure-activity relationships of a catalytic system during the photodeposition of Pt on TiO2 and photostimulated H-2 production. XAS showed an increase in Pt fluorescence correlated with H-2 production, and the final Pt/TiO2 catalyst contained Pt(0) particles. UV-Vis spectroscopy revealed the disappearance of electronic features corresponding to Pt4+ species in the presence of formic acid, resulting in the presence of Pt(0) particles.

New fluorescent derivatives from papaverine: Two mechanisms to increase the quantum yield

M. Giordano, G. Volpi, C. Garino, F. Cardano, C. Barolo, G. Viscardi, A. Fin

Summary: A series of new emissive imidazo[5,1-a]isoquinolines were synthesized, and their electronic properties were investigated. The electronic spectra showed absorption bands around 330-350 nm and intense fluorescence emissions between 440 nm and 460 nm. The emission quantum yield in dichloromethane solution was enhanced from 9% to 37% depending on the position and electronic properties of the substituents on the imidazo[5,1-a]isoquinoline nucleus. The data suggest that steric hindering and electronic effects are responsible for the enhanced emission.

Structure-Property Relationship of Defect-Trapped Pt Single-Site Electrocatalysts for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Peng Tang, Po-Yuan Huang, Jack E. N. Swallow, Chenbo Wang, Diego Gianolio, Hua Guo, Jamie H. Warner, Robert S. Weatherup, Mauro Pasta

Summary: The synthesis and catalytic performance of trapped platinum single atoms in carbon substrates are studied. It is found that platinum single atoms can be synthesized by adsorbing H2PtCl6 on the polyaniline substrate and undergoing pyrolysis. In situ heated scanning transmission electron microscopy and temperature-dependent X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveal the thermal evolution of platinum during pyrolysis. The results show that nitrogen atoms in polyaniline can coordinate with platinum ions and capture platinum sites at pyridinic nitrogen defects formed during substrate graphitization. Operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirms the stability of the trapped platinum single atoms at the working potentials of the hydrogen evolution reaction but with lower electrocatalytic activity compared to metallic platinum nanoparticles. First principle calculations suggest that the lower activity of trapped platinum single atoms is due to their unfavorable hydrogen chemisorption energy relative to metallic platinum (111) surfaces. These results deepen the understanding of the structure-property relationship in trapped platinum single atoms and also motivate a detailed techno-economic analysis to evaluate their commercial applicability.

Insights into the multi-functional lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate additive in boosting the Li-ion reaction kinetics for Li3VO4 anodes

Miaomiao Zhang, Cunyuan Pei, Qiqi Xiang, Lintao Liu, Zhongxu Dai, Huijuan Ma, Shibing Ni

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

ClO-driven degradation of graphene oxide: new insights from DFT calculations

S. L. Romo-Avila, D. Marquez-Ruiz, R. A. Guirado-Lopez

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Composition dependence of X-ray stability and degradation mechanisms at lead halide perovskite single crystal surfaces

Alberto Garcia-Fernandez, Birgit Kammlander, Stefania Riva, Hakan Rensmo, Ute B. Cappel

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

Summary: The stability of La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-delta, a perovskite-type oxide, under reducing conditions is dependent on the manganese content. Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
