H2 evolution: [Ni(P2N2)2]2+ in acidic ionic liq./H2O [Chemistry]

H2 evolution: [Ni(P2N2)2]2+ in acidic ionic liq./H2O [Chemistry]: The electrocatalytic reduction of protons to H2 by (where in the highly acidic ionic liquid dibutylformamidium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide shows a strong dependence on added water. A turnover frequency of 43,000–53,000 s-1 has been measured for hydrogen production at 25 °C when the mole fraction of water (χH2O) is 0.72. The same catalyst in...
