摘要
(Chemical Equation Presented) Oxidation without organics: A tetraruthenium polyoxometalate (see picture; Ru blue, O red, Si yellow, W black) catalyzes the rapid oxidation of H2O to O2 in water at ambient temperature, and shows considerable stability under turnover conditions. The complex was characterized by several methods, including X-ray crystallography and cyclic voltammetry. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
