Efficient Voltage-Driven Oxidation of Water and Alcohols by an Organic Molecular Catalyst Directly Attached to a Carbon Electrode
The integration of heterogeneous electrocatalysis and molecular catalysis is a promising approach to designing new catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and other processes. We recently showed that the electrostatic potential drop across the double layer contributes to the driving force for electron transfer between a dissolved reactant and a molecular catalyst immobilized directly on the electrode surface. Here, we report high current densities and low onset potentials for water oxidation attained using a metal-free voltage-assisted molecular catalyst (TEMPO). Scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) was used to analyze the products and determine faradic efficiencies for the generation of H2O2 and O2. The same catalyst was employed for efficient oxidations of butanol, ethanol, glycerol, and H2O2. DFT calculations show that the applied voltage alters the electrostatic potential drop between TEMPO and the reactant as well as chemical bonding between them, thereby increasing the reaction rate. These results suggest a new route for designing next-generation hybrid molecular/electrocatalysts for OER and alcohol oxidations.
