Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project intended to develop effectively designed multinuclear metal complexes which catalyze photo-induced oxidation of water and hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to formic acid, with an aim of establishing artificial photosystem by utilizing a carbon cycle as final goal. In the period of the project, octa-, dodeca-, trideca-, and tetradecanuclear manganese oxo clusters with diimino ligands were synthesized for candidates of oxidation catalysts, and their detailed structures and redox properties were investigated, and for reduction catalysts, hydride-bridged NiM (M = Rh, Ir) heterodinuclear complexes with a SPPS tetradentate ligand, and the hydride-bridged di- and tetranuclear copper complexes supported by a linear tetraphosphine ligand were prepared and characterized, and their reactions with carbon dioxide were examined.
