Example Embodiment

[0018] Example 1.

[0019] Take a certain amount of tris(p-chlorophenyl)corrole cobalt as an electrocatalyst, dissolve it in dichloromethane solvent, and prepare a concentration of 1.0 × 10 -3 mol / L solution. Take 2-5 mL of this solution into a 10 mL small beaker, soak a pyrolytic graphite electrode (Pine Instrument Company, USA) in it for 5 to 10 seconds, take it out, and let it dry naturally to be used as a catalytic working electrode.

[0020] Add 50 mL of 1.0 mol / L perchloric acid aqueous solution into the electrochemical cell (150 mL beaker). Install pyrolytic graphite electrode, platinum electrode and saturated calomel electrode to form a three-electrode system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for reducing molecular oxygen using a triaryl corrole cobalt complex as an electrocatalyst, and belongs to the technical field of catalytic reduction of molecular oxygen. Background technique [0002] The catalytic reduction reaction of molecular oxygen is a very important chemical reaction, especially in electrochemical energy (such as hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell, metal-air battery) and bioenergy conversion. When molecular oxygen is reduced to hydrogen peroxide or water through the two-electron or four-electron pathway, the corresponding energy can be released. As the cathode reaction of a fuel cell, one requires molecular oxygen to be reduced at a relatively positive potential, and the other is to reduce molecular oxygen to water through a four-electron reaction as much as possible, thereby effectively improving its reaction rate and energy utilization. efficiency. Choosing and utilizing a suitable catalyst is an ef...
