Sodium Cobalticarborane: A Promising Precatalyst for Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Abstract: Water splitting is a helpful way of converting renewable electricity into fuel. The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a slow reaction that provides low-cost electrons for water reduction reactions. Thus, finding an efficient, low-cost, stable, and environmentally friendly OER catalyst is critical for water splitting. Here, sodium cobalticarborane (1) is introduced as a promising precatalyst for forming an OER cobalt-based catalyst. The cobalt-based catalyst was characterized by several methods and is suggeste… Show more

“…The route for the production of hydrogen through water electrolysis is considered as green and convenient as through the utilization of solar energy . However, the generation of oxygen through the water electrolysis is a 4e – /4H + process, which is challenged by its high theoretical overpotential (1.23 V at 25 °C vs the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)), and therefore limits the rate of production of hydrogen in water splitting devices. , The sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) requires high operating potential to gain the current densities necessary for practical applications . Therefore, the development of an efficient electrocatalyst for the OER is the present-day challenge to facilitate the overall process of water electrolysis.…”
