Stereochemical Tailoring of Nickel-based Electrocatalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Résumé

The search for alternative non‐noble transition metal catalysts able to evolve hydrogen has been the focus of intense research. Molecular complexes bearing redox‐active ligands have been reported as efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reactivity (HER). This study showcases a new family of nickel‐thiosemicarbazone complexes displaying significant activity for HER in DMF solvent using trifluoracetic acid as proton source. Following previous works in our group, the ligand was stereochemically tailored, placing methoxy groups at different locations and considering various combinations of positions. Three complexes within the series were shown to outperform the parent catalyst bearing the methoxy group in para position. Overall, the nickel catalyst having the chemical substituent in meta position displays the best catalytic performances while having the lowest overpotential. These results support that ligand stereochemical tailoring in metal complexes improves electrocatalytic HER and suggest that ligand tuning is a promising direction to enhance catalyst performances.
