“…Vizza, Grützmacher et al synthesized the complex [Rh(OTf)(trop 2 NH)P(4‐ n ‐butyl‐Ph) 3 ] [trop 2 NH = bis(5‐H dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten‐5‐yl)‐amine OTf – = CF 3 SO 3 – = triflate] that was dispersed on high surface area carbon black Ketjenblack EC‐600JD to obtain an electrode whose activity was tested by cyclic voltammetry in 2 m alcohol 2 m KOH solutions . To the best of our knowledge, this electrocatalyst has the highest mass activity ever reported in literature for ethanol electrooxidation: 16000 Ag Rh –1 at 1.2 V vs. RHE, a value even higher than the mass activity of the state‐of‐the‐art nanostructured palladium based electrocatalysts , . This rhodium complex has the capability to oxidize several renewable alcohols and diols, such as ethanol, 1,2‐propanediol and glycerol, in a wide potential window (from 0.65 V to 1.2 V vs. RHE).…”
