General Description

2-Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, (diethoxyphosphinyl)methyl ester, also known as 2-Methylacrylic acid (diethoxyphosphinyl)methyl ester, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C9H17O5P. It belongs to the class of organophosphorus compounds, specifically phosphinic esters. It is an ester of 2-methyl-2-propenoic acid and can be derived from a series of chemical reactions involving esterification and phosphonylation. Its attributes include a characteristic ester-like smell and unstable nature under certain conditions. It has potential applicability in the manufacturing of a range of products, though its toxicity and handling procedures should be researched and managed properly.

Rational Design of Polymers for Selective CO2 Reduction Catalysis

A series of copolymers comprising a terpyridine ligand and various functional groups were synthesized toward integrating a Co-based molecular CO2 reduction catalyst. Using porous metal oxide electrodes designed to host macromolecules, the Co-coordinated polymers were readily immobilized via phosphonate anchoring groups. Within the polymeric matrix, the outer coordination sphere of the Co terpyridine catalyst was engineered using hydrophobic functional moieties to improve CO2 reduction selectivity in the presence of water. Electrochemical and photoelectrochemical CO2 reduction were demonstrated with the polymer-immobilized hybrid cathodes, with a CO:H2 product ratio of up to 6:1 compared to 2:1 for a corresponding “monomeric” Co terpyridine catalyst. This versatile platform of polymer design demonstrates promise in controlling the outer-sphere environment of synthetic molecular catalysts, analogous to CO2 reductases.
