Abstract
Complexes [(μ‐S₂C₂H₄NHR)Fe₂(CO)₆] (R = p‐C₆H₄‐OCO(CH₂)₉Br (3a); R = p‐C₆H₄‐OCO(CH₂)₈CH₃ (3b)) were used as stabilizing agents in the synthesis of Ni@3 and Au@3 nanoparticles (NPs), which are the first reported stable metallic NPs decorated with [(μ‐S₂C₂H₄NHR)Fe₂(CO)₆] moieties. Electrochemical analysis reveals that incorporating the hydrogenase mimic into the NPs lowers the overpotential and enhances proton reduction electrocatalytic activity in organic media. The NPs act similarly to the [Fe₄S₄] cluster in natural enzymes, functioning as an electron reservoir/relay.
期刊介绍:
With an impact factor of 4.495 (2018), ChemCatChem is one of the premier journals in the field of catalysis. The journal provides primary research papers and critical secondary information on heterogeneous, homogeneous and bio- and nanocatalysis. The journal is well placed to strengthen cross-communication within between these communities. Its authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories across the world. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies, and is supported by the German Catalysis Society.
