Two nanosized titanium-oxide clusters (TOCs), Ti(μ-O)(μ-O)PA (1; PA = 2-picolinate) and Ti(μ-O)PA (2) were synthesized by using 2-picolinic acid and Ti(OPr) in one-pot reactions. Their structures were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffractometry. Although both have the same core composition of TiO, 1 exhibited superior H evolution activity of up to 180 μmol h g, which is nearly eight times faster than 2. Mechanism studies revealed that 1 could induce the assembly of 2.3 nm PtNPs into 10-30 nm supra-nanoparticle structures, which contributed to the increased H evolution rate.
通过在一锅反应中使用2-吡啶甲酸和Ti(OPr)合成了两个纳米级二氧化钛簇(TOCs),即Ti(μ-O)(μ-O)PA(1;PA = 2-吡啶甲酸盐)和Ti(μ-O)PA(2)。使用单晶X射线衍射法确定了它们的结构。尽管两者具有相同的TiO核心组成,但1表现出高达180 μmol h g的优异析氢活性,这几乎是2的八倍快。机理研究表明,1可以诱导2.3 nm的PtNPs组装成10-30 nm的超纳米颗粒结构,这有助于提高析氢速率。
