O<sub>2</sub> reduction by iron porphyrins with electron withdrawing groups: to scale or not to scale
Sk Amanullah, Paramita Saha, Abhishek Dey
Abstract
Iron porphyrins are synthesized by systematically introducing electron withdrawing groups (EWGs) on pyrroles to evaluate the relationship between rate ( k ) and overpotential ( η ).
