We report on three Ir(III) molecular catalysts for water oxidation: 1, [Cp*Ir(ppy) Cl]; 2, [Cp*Ir(bzpy)NO(3)]; 3, [Cp*Ir(H(2)O)(3)](NO(3))(2). 2 and 3 are water-soluble and show a long-term activity ca. 2 and 3 times higher than 1. It is remarkable that 3, having the simplest structure, is the catalyst with the highest activity.

Abstract
We report on three Ir(III) molecular catalysts for water oxidation: 1, [Cp*Ir(ppy) Cl]; 2, [Cp*Ir(bzpy)NO(3)]; 3, [Cp*Ir(H(2)O)(3)](NO(3))(2). 2 and 3 are water-soluble and show a long-term activity ca. 2 and 3 times higher than 1. It is remarkable that 3, having the simplest structure, is the catalyst with the highest activity.File in questo prodotto:
