Tuning Gold Nanoparticles with Chelating Ligands for Highly Efficient Electrocatalytic CO 2 Reduction
Capped chelating organic molecules are presented as a design principle for tuning heterogeneous nanoparticles for electrochemical catalysis. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized with a chelating tetradentate porphyrin ligand show a 110-fold enhancement compared to the oleylamine-coated AuNP in...

Zusammenfassung: | Capped chelating organic molecules are presented as a design principle for tuning heterogeneous nanoparticles for electrochemical catalysis. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized with a chelating tetradentate porphyrin ligand show a 110-fold enhancement compared to the oleylamine-coated AuNP in current density for electrochemical reduction of CO
to CO in water at an overpotential of 340 mV with Faradaic efficiencies (FEs) of 93 %. These catalysts also show excellent stability without deactivation ( |
