“…Motivated by the fact that un-coordinatively saturated cobalt complexes can serve as electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction, 16,28,29 we also tried to explore electrocatalytic properties of [Co(L)(Cl) 2 ]Cl 1. First, the electrochemical performance of [Co(L)(Cl) 2 ]Cl 1 was investigated by employing cyclic voltammetry at a glassy electrode in CH 3 CN under N 2 , providing the results shown in Fig.…”

1,4,7,10-Tetraazacyclododecane (L) reacts with CoCl2 to give [Co(L)(Cl)2]Cl. The introduction of O2 leads to formation of a cobalt(iii)-peroxo species, [L-Co-OO]+, which is responsible for O2 reduction.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
