  • Patent number: 10125427
    Abstract: The present invention relates to porphyrins of formula (I): wherein R1 to R6, R1? to R6?, X, X? Y and Y? are as described in claim 1. The invention also relates to complexes of said porphyrins with transition metals, in particular iron, preferably as Fe(III) or Fe(0) complex, and salts thereof, use thereof as catalysts for the selective electrochemical reduction of CO2 into CO, electrochemical cells comprising said complexes, and a method for selectively reducing electrochemically CO2 into CO using said complexes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 4, 2015
    Date of Patent: November 13, 2018
    Assignees: CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE (CNRS), UNIVERSITE PARIS DIDEROT PARIS 7
    Inventors: Cyrille Costentin, Marc Robert, Samuel Drouet, Guillaume Passard, Jean-Michel Saveant, Arnaud Tatin

  • Patent number: 9447511
    Abstract: The present invention relates to catalysts for the production of CO gas through electrochemical CO2 reduction. In particular, the present invention relates to an electrochemical cell comprising an iron porphyrin as the catalyst for the CO2 reduction into CO, a method of performing electrochemical reduction of CO2 using said electrochemical cell thereby producing CO gas, and a method of performing electrochemical reduction of CO2 using said iron porphyrin catalyst thereby producing CO gas.
