Water oxidation catalyzed by two cobalt complexes: New challenges and
questions
- Authors: Mohammad Mahdi Najafpour; Hadi Feizi
  Abstract: Catal. Sci. Technol. , 2018, Accepted Manuscript
  
  DOI : 10.1039/C7CY02602A, Paper Mohammad Mahdi Najafpour, Hadi Feizi
  Herein, the water oxidation activities of two cobalt complexes (cobalt(II) phthalocyanine and N,N[prime or minute]-bis (salicylidene) ethylenediamino cobalt(II)) were studied. The experiments showed that at pH 11, N,N[prime or minute]-Bis (salicylidene) ethylenediamino cobalt(II) and...
