Me2–NHC based robust Ir catalyst for efficient water oxidation

Abstract

Me2–NHC proved to be a valuable ligand in iridium catalyzed water oxidation reactions, both when carried out electrochemically as well as upon oxidation with cerium ammonium nitrate. Mechanistic data suggest that water oxidation occurs efficiently at a well defined iridium species via a mononuclear pathway.
