Bulky ylide-substituted phosphines have recently found application as potent ligands in homogeneous catalysis. The attempted synthesis of the ylide-substituted fluorenylphosphine Y P(Cy)Flu [Y =Cy P(Ph)C; Flu=9-methylfluorenyl] now resulted in the unexpected elimination of 9-methylenefluorene during the deprotonation step of the intermediary α-phosphino phosphonium salt to yield the secondary ylide-substituted phosphine Y P(Cy)H. This phosphine underwent formal H elimination under basic conditions to form a cyclic phosphonium ylide with a P-C-P-C four-membered ring via deprotonation of one cyclohexyl group of the PCy moiety. Upon coordination to transition metals the secondary ylidylphosphine forms a neutral phosphide ligand by shift of the proton into the ylide-backbone and formation of zwitterionic metal complexes.

The rational design of highly efficient and cost-effective oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts is crucial for hydrogen production through electrocatalytic water splitting. Although the crystalline/amorphous heterostructure shows great potential in enhancing OER activity, its fabrication presents significantly greater challenges compared to that of crystalline/crystalline heterostructures. Herein, a microwave irradiation strategy is developed to construct reduced graphene oxide supported crystalline NiP/amorphous FePO heterostructure (NiP/FePO/RGO) as an efficient OER electrocatalyst.

The two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e ORR) for electrochemical hydrogen peroxide (HO) synthesis has drawn much attention due to its eco-friendly, cost-effective, and highly efficient properties. Developing catalysts with excellent HO production rates and selectivity is still a big challenge. In this work, an iron-doped nickel phosphide (Fe-Ni-P) catalyst was synthesized by a solvent thermal method.

Seawater electrolysis can generate carbon-neutral hydrogen but its efficiency is hindered by the low mass activity and poor stability of commercial catalysts at industrial current densities. Herein, Pt nanoclusters are loaded on nickel-iron-cobalt phosphide nanosheets, with the obtained Pt@NiFeCo-P electrocatalyst exhibiting excellent hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity and stability in alkaline seawater at ampere-level current densities. The catalyst delivers an ultralow HER overpotential of 19.
