Activation and reduction of O2 and H2O2 by synthetic and biosynthetic iron porphyrin
models have proved to be a versatile platform for evaluating second-sphere effects deemed …

Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is an important process involved in natural and artificial
energy conversion schemes. As inspired by cytochrome c oxidases (CcOs), which are …

The steric effects on the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) have been rarely studied because
O2 is small in size and ORR catalysts with the only difference in steric hindrance are difficult …

Iron porphyrins with one or four tertiary amine groups in their second sphere are used to
investigate the electrochemical O2 reduction reaction (ORR) in organic (homogeneous) and …

Next-generation energy technologies require improved methods for rapid and efficient
chemical-to-electrical energy transformations. One new approach has been to include …

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising platforms for heterogeneous tethering of
molecular CO2 reduction electrocatalysts. Yet, to further understand electrocatalytic MOF …

The design of efficient electrocatalysts is limited by scaling relationships governing trade-offs
between thermodynamic and kinetic performance metrics. This ″iron law ″of …

The power of oriented electrostatic fields (ESFs) to influence chemical bonding and reactivity
is a phenomenon of rapidly growing interest. The presence of strong ESFs has recently …

The electrocatalytic four-electron (4e–) oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is important in new
energy conversion technologies. Improving the activity and 4e–selectivity of the ORR is …

We report a series of isomeric, dicationic Re (bpy2+)(CO) 3I complexes with bpy (2, 2′-
bipyridine) modified by two phenyl-CH2-(NMe3)+ pendants with cations located at variable …
