Photoinduced Biphasic Hydrogen Evolution: Decamethylosmocene as a Light-Driven Electron Donor

Hubert Girault, Astrid Johana Olaya Avendano, Heron Vrubel, Micheal Diarmaid Scanlon, Peiyu Ge, Imren Hatay

Excitation of the weak electron donor decamethylosmocene on illumination with white light produces an excited-state species capable of reducing organically solubilized protons under biphasic conditions. Insight into the mechanism and kinetics of light-driv ...

Hydrogen evolution at polarised liquid/liquid interfaces catalyzed by molybdenum disulfide

Hubert Girault, Xile Hu, Heron Vrubel, Peiyu Ge, Imren Hatay

Molybdenum disulfide microparticles in suspension in an aqueous acidic solution adsorb at the interface with an organic electrolyte solution containing the reducing agent, decamethylferrocene, to catalyse hydrogen evolution. This catalytic process has been ...

Hydrogen evolution catalyzed by electrodeposited nanoparticles at the liquid/liquid interface

Hubert Girault, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Peiyu Ge, Imren Hatay, Joonas Jalmari Nieminen

Aqueous protons reduction by decamethylferrocene in 1,2-dichloroethane can be catalyzed efficiently by platinum and palladium nanoparticles electrogenerated in situ at the liquid–liquid interface. ...

Artificial Photosynthesis at Soft Interfaces

Hubert Girault, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Peiyu Ge, Haiqiang Deng, Imren Hatay, Patrick Voyame, Zahra Nazemi

The concept of artificial photosynthesis at a polarised liquid membrane is presented. It includes two photosystems, one at each interface for the hydrogen and oxygen evolution respectively. Both reactions involve proton coupled electron transfer reactions, ...

Oxygen and proton reduction by decamethylferrocene in non-aqueous acidic media

Hubert Girault, Manuel Alejandro Méndez Agudelo, Bin Su, Peiyu Ge, Imren Hatay, Zdenek Samec

Experimental studies and density functional theory (DFT) computations suggest that oxygen and proton reduction by decamethylferrocene (DMFc) in 1,2-dichloroethane involves protonated DMFc, DMFcH+, as an active intermediate species, producing hydrogen perox ...

Hydrogen Evolution at Liquid–Liquid Interfaces

Hubert Girault, Xile Hu, Heron Vrubel, Bin Su, Raheleh Partovi Nia, Imren Hatay

Blowing bubbles: Hydrogen evolution by proton reduction with [(C5Me5)2Fe] occurs at a soft interface between water and 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE). The reaction proceeds by proton transfer assisted by [(C5Me5)2Fe] across the water–DCE interface with subsequen ...
