Electrochemical evidence for catalyticwater oxidation mediated by a high-valent cobalt complex

Abstract

The pH-dependent electrochemical behavior for a Co(II) complex, [Co(Py5)(OH2)](ClO4)2 (1; Py5 = 2,6-(bis(bis-2-pyridyl)methoxymethane)pyridine), indicates consecutive (proton-coupled) oxidation steps furnish a CoIV species that catalyzes the oxidation of water in basic media.
