Abstract:Using the technique of in situ photoprecipitation, a comparative study of the structurally homologous ionic species hexachloroplatinate ([PtC&12-), hexachloroosmiate ( [OsC&12-), and hexachloroiridates was conducted for photoconversion to metallocatalysts for photosynthetic hydrogen evolution. As with earlier [PtC1612-studies, [osc16l2-can be photoconverted to a metallocatalyst at photosystem I (PSI), although at a rate about 50% slower than that of [PtC&]2-. However, once photoprecipitated, its catalytic act… Show more
“…This ensures that an electron is transferred within the time constraints of the system, which is ~65 ms before the electron on F B recombines with P 700 + . The same phenomenon has been observed for hexachloroosmiate ([OsCl 6 ] 2− ) [18] and hexachlororuthenate ([RuCl 6 ] 2− ) [19]. Upon illumination of PSI reaction centers, electrons are promoted to the F B iron-sulfur cluster, where they are capable of reducing ferric ions to ferrous ions in what is known as the Hill reaction of photosynthesis .…”

“…Colloidal platinum can be directly deposited onto thylakoid membranes and isolated PSI complexes in an approach pioneered by Greenbaum and coworkers [16][17][18]. This ensures that an electron is transferred within the time constraints of the system, which is ~65 ms before the electron on F B recombines with P 700 + .…”

A new photocatalytic system composed of abiotic catalyst and native photosynthetic membranes produces hydrogen and oxygen directly from water using sunlight.
“…Hill and Bendall proposed the Z-scheme in 1960 and agreed on PSI as the final reducing site in photosynthetic electron transport [22]. The 'Hill Reaction ' can be followed alternatively using hexachloro palatinate [PtCl 6 ] -2 on thylakoid membranes and isolated PSI [92][93][94]. In a process referred to as photoprecipitation, metallic Pt particles form on the stromal ridge of PSI, shuttling electrons from F B to protons in the immediate vici nity of the catalytic Pt surface [95].…”
