摘要
A new pentanickel silicotungstate complex, K 10H 2[Ni 5(OH) 6(OH 2) 3(Si 2W 18O 66)]·34H 2O (KH-1), has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography and several other methods. Dynamic light scattering, kinetics and other experiments confirm that 1 in the presence of [Ru(bpy) 3] 2+ (the photosensitizer for light-driven water oxidations) and [Ru(bpy) 3] 3+ (the oxidant in the dark water oxidations) exists in an equilibrium between solution (soluble) and a [Ru(bpy) 3] n+-1 complex (minimally soluble) form. This new pentanickel polyoxometalate catalyzes efficient water oxidation in both the dark and on irradiation with 455 nm LED light with 1.0 mM [Ru(bpy) 3] 2+ photosensitizer and 5.0 mM Na 2S 2O 8, sacrificial electron acceptor. Four lines of evidence indicate that 1 in this solution Ru(bpy) 3] n+-1 complex equilibrium remains molecular and does not decompose to nickel hydroxide particles.
