Electrochemically Determined and Structurally Justified Thermochemistry of H atom Transfer on Ti-Oxo Nodes of the Colloidal Metal-Organic Framework Ti-MIL-125.

ABSTRACT: Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) has long been employed as a (photo)electrode for reactions relevant to energy storage and renewable energy synthesis. Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactions with equimolar amounts of protons and electrons at the TiO₂ surface or within the bulk structure lie at the center of these reactions. Because a proton and an electron are thermochemically equivalent to an H atom, these reactions are essentially H atom transfer reactions. Thermodynamics of H atom transfer has a complex dependence on the synthetic protocol and chemical history of the electrode, the reaction medium, and many others; together, these complications preclude the understanding of the H atom transfer thermochemistry with atomic-level structural knowledge. Herein, we repo
