Nickle Complex with[N2O2]-type Ligand for Electrochemical Hydrogen Production in Neutral Aqueous Solution

doi:10.7517/j.issn.1674-0475.2017.04.037

Abstract

Abstract:

Based on easy and accessible Mannich reaction, we synthesized a[N₂O₂]-type ligand which was successfully coordinated with Ni(ClO₄)₂ to afford a nickle complex NiL. The ligand and the NiL complex was characterized by ¹HNMR and HRMS. Electrochemical study indicates that the NiL complex exhibits excellent hydrogen production activity in neutral phosphate buffer.

Key words: nickel complex, Mannich reaction, electrocatalysis, hydrogen production
