Electron Transfer Facilitated by Dendrimer-Encapsulated Pt Nanoparticles Across Ultrathin, Insulating Oxide Films.

Electrocatalytic oxygen reduction at carbon electrodes fully passivated by Al2O3 is reported. Specifically, pyrolyzed polymer film (PPF) electrodes were prepared and then coated with pinhole-free Al2O3 layers ranging in thickness from 2.5 to 5.7 nm. All of these ultrathin oxide film thicknesses completely passivated the PPF electrodes, resulting in no faradaic current for either inner-sphere or outer-sphere electrochemical reactions. The electrodes could, however, be reactivated by immobilizing Pt dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENs), containing an average of 55 atoms each, on the oxide surface. These PPF/Al2O3/Pt DEN electrodes were completely stable under a variety of electrochemical and solution conditions, and they are active for simple electron-transfer reactions and for more complex electrocatalytic processes. This approach for preparing well-defined oxide electrodes opens the door to a better understanding of the effect of oxide supports on reactions electrocatalyzed by metal nanoparticles.
