Hydrated Manganese(II) Phosphate (Mn3(PO4)2·3H2O) as a Water Oxidation Catalyst

Abstract: The development of a water oxidation catalyst has been a demanding challenge in realizing water splitting systems. The asymmetric geometry and flexible ligation of the biological Mn4CaO5 cluster are important properties for the function of photosystem II, and these properties can be applied to the design of new inorganic water oxidation catalysts. We identified a new crystal structure, Mn3(PO4)2·3H2O, that precipitates spontaneously in aqueous solution at room temperature and demonstrated its high catalytic pe… Show more

“…Additionally, the infrared (IR) spectrum of the MnDNFs (Supplementary Figure S50) was similar to that of previously published Mn 2 P 2 O 7 .2H 2 O (41). We then compared the IR spectra with Mn 2+ and Co 2+ phosphate and pyrophosphate salts, which were prepared by mixing corresponding metal dichloride with buffered pyrophosphate or phosphate based on a literature procedure for the synthesis of hydrated manganese(II) phosphate (Mn 3 (PO 4 ) 2 ·3H 2 O) (22). In all cases, the IR spectra matched with the pyrophosphate salts suggesting that the DNFs are composed of a derivative of M 2+ with P 2 O 7 4− , most likely M 2 P 2 O 7 rather than phosphate salts (Supplementary Figures S50–S58).…”

“…[27][28][29][30] In nature, the water oxidation catalyst of photosynthesis was composed of earth-abundant elements such as Mn and Ca in the form of cubical CaMn 4 O 5 clusters, which functioned under neutral conditions with very low overpotential value. 31 The unique capability of natural system has inspired the design of manganese phosphate as water oxidation catalyst with superior catalytic performance at neutral pH.…”
