dc.description.abstract | Ruthenium had up to date been pivotal in electro- and photocatalytic applications involving reduction of CO2 and H2O, and dye-sensitized solar cells. Commercial applications would seek use of earth-abundant metals instead. Towards this goal, it is key to review the synthesis, electrochemical and spectroscopical properties of associated metal-to-ligand charge transfer complexes of row-4 (Mn, Fe & Co) and column-8 (Fe, Ru & Os). The present report is limited to data obtained under exactly similar conditions, providing scientifically valid correlations. Only tris-coordinated bipyridyl and phenanthroline complex derivatives are considered, being representative of catalysts and dyes traditionally used in the above-mentioned fields. The accuracy of theoretical DFT techniques to simulate complex properties is highlighted. | en_ZA |
