Metal Phthalocyanines as Electrocatalysts for Redox Reactions

Electrochemical Reduction of CO[sub 2] with Transition Metal Phthalocyanine and Porphyrin Complexes Supported on Activated Carbon Fibers

“…[1][2][3] This work has dealt with two main types of electrocatalysts: pure metals [4][5][6][7][8] and various types of metal complexes, mainly with nitrogen-containing macrocyclic ligands. [9][10][11][12] In both cases, substantial decreases in the overpotentials for CO 2 electroreduction vs. the bare support have been achieved. The distribution of reaction products is strongly dependent on the type of catalyst as well as the specific reaction conditions.…”

A simple synthesis of symmetric phthalocyanines and their respective perfluoro and transition‐metal complexes

“…NMR spectra [ 1 H, 19 F] were measured on a Bruker AV 300 spectrometer. IR spectra (4000-400 cm −1 , resol.…”

Investigation of electrochemical properties and gas adsorption studies of novel sandwich core phthalocyanines

“…Before application of any constant potential, the bands at 460 and 922 nm were characteristic for double-decker Pcs. [32][33][34][35] The Q band at 671 nm shifted to 606 nm with decrease in intensity, and a new sharp band at 696 nm was appeared as the potential of −1.0 V was applied to the working electrode ( Figure 7A). The spectral changes were also accompanied by the formation of well-defined isosbestic points at 366, 612, 664, and 689 nm, and the characteristic radical band was disappeared at 472 nm.…”
