要旨

The one-electron redox potentials for aqueous metal couples Co2+/+ and Ni2+/+ have been investigated by using pulse radiolysis using their reactions with a series of reference compounds to establish the most positive upper limits of E0. Experiments with Zn+ were also carried out to confirm the characteristic shape of the expected reduction kinetics. Both formate ions and t-BuOH were employed to scavenge ˙OH radicals and ˙H atoms. Kinetics and fitted first and second order reaction rates have been reported for reactions with methyl viologen, fluorescein, Ru(NH3)63+, Co(en)32+, Co(sepulcrate)3+, Ru(bpy)32+, Cr(bpy)33+, and Ni(Me6[14]4,11-dieneN4)2+. Previous work demonstrated that both Co2+ and Ni2+ can be reduced by CO2˙− radicals, giving a negative E0 limit of −1.9 V vs. SHE. A definite reaction of Ni+ with fluorescein di-anions provides a new upper limit of the Ni2+/+ couple as −0.906 V vs. SHE. The reaction of Co+ with Ru(bpy)32+ has been confirmed, giving E0 = −1.3 V vs. SHE as a rigorous upper limit of the Co2+/+ couple. In the case of Co2+/+, kinetics were complicated by a self-catalyzed metal clustering phenomenon. Initiation rate constants of this process have also been reported.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
