Abstract
Inorganic chemists from the Nuclear Research Centre Negev, Ariel University, and Ben-Gurion University elucidate the high-valent copper species responsible for water oxidation in bicarbonate/carbonate solutions by the use of pulse radiolysis measurements and DFT calculations. The role of coordinated carbonate as a non-innocent ligand is revealed. The role of carbonate in other catalytic oxidations has to be considered. More information can be found in the Full Paper by A.?Mizrahi, H.? Kornweitz, I. Zilbermann, D.?Meyerstein et?al. on page 1088.
