Copper phthalocyanine complex as electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction

By Koca, Atif
Published in Electrochemistry Communications 2009

Abstract

In this work, we have sought economically viable methods for hydrogen evolution reaction (her). For this purpose, we have investigated the voltammetric and in situ spectroelectrochemical behavior of copper phthalocyanine complex and its electrocatalytic activity for her. In spite of the belief that the complexes bearing redox active metal center can catalyze hydrogen evolution reactions, copper phthalocyanine having ring-based redox processes shows excellent electrocatalytic activity.
