Yang, Yong; Ertem, Mehmed Z.; Duan, Lele published an article in 2021. The article was titled 《An amide-based second coordination sphere promotes the dimer pathway of Mn-catalyzed CO2-to-CO reduction at low overpotential》, and you may find the article in Chemical Science.Related Products of 14516-54-2 The information in the text is summarized as follows:
The [fac-Mn(bpy)(CO)3Br] complex is capable of catalyzing the electrochem. reduction of CO2 to CO with high selectivity, moderate activity and large overpotential. Several attempts have been made to lower the overpotential and to enhance the catalytic activity of this complex by manipulating the second-coordination sphere of manganese and using relatively stronger acids to promote the protonation-first pathway. We report herein that the complex [fac-Mn(bpy-CONHMe)(CO)3(MeCN)]+ ([1-MeCN]+; bpy-CONHMe = N-methyl-(2,2′-bipyridine)-6-carboxamide) as a pre-catalyst could catalyze the electrochem. reduction of CO2 to CO with low overpotential and high activity and selectivity. Combined exptl. and computational studies reveal that the amide NH group not only decreases the overpotential of the Mn catalyst by promoting the dimer and protonation-first pathways in the presence of H2O but also enhances the CO2 electroreduction activity by facilitating C-OH bond cleavage, making [1-MeCN]+ an efficient CO2 reduction pre-catalyst at low overpotential. The results came from multiple reactions, including the reaction of Bromopentacarbonylmanganese(I)(cas: 14516-54-2Related Products of 14516-54-2)
Bromopentacarbonylmanganese(I)(cas: 14516-54-2) has many other uses. It is used in the formation of (eta6-arene)tricarbonylmanganese(I) by reacting with arene (arene= hexamethyl benzene, 1,2,4,5-tetramethyl benzene, mesitylene, p-xylene and toluene) in the presence silver salt.Related Products of 14516-54-2
