Formate is attracting attention as a hydrogen carrier because of its low toxicity and easy handling in aqueous solution. In order to utilize formic acid as a hydrogen carrier, a catalyst for efficiently and selectively decomposing formic acid into H-2 in a low pH region is required. In this work, enhancement of selective H-2 production from formate with platinum nanoparticles dispersed by polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and cationic poly-l-amino acid, poly(l-lysine) (PLL), poly(l-histidine)(PLH) and poly(l-arginine)(PLR) (Pt-PVP/PLX; X = L, H or R) in a low pH region was attempted. By using all Pt-PVP/PLX or Pt-PVP for formate decomposition catalysts, the amount of H-2 produced was maximized using an aqueous formate solution with a pH of 3.5 (close to a pK(a) of 3.75 of formic acid). The H-2 production catalytic activity of Pt-PVP/PLX (X = L or H) improved compared with that of Pt-PVP in the low pH range (pH = 1.8). By using Pt-PVP/PLL, especially, the amount of H-2 produced was improved to about 1.8 times compared to that of Pt-PVP under a pH = 1.8 condition. There was no difference in the electronic states of the platinum nanoparticles in Pt-PVP and Pt-PVP/PLL according to the extended X-ray absorption fine structure and X-ray absorption near edge structure spectra measurements. The amount of H-2 produced tended to increase as the PLL content ratio in Pt-PVP/PLL increased and the protonated alkylammonium moiety of PLL in Pt-PVP/PLL attracted the dilute formate ions in the solution to platinum nanoparticles, and the catalytic activity for H-2 production was improved under the low pH range.

Visible-light driven CO reduction to formate with the system consisting of water-soluble zinc tetraphneylporphyrin tetrasulfonate (ZnTPPS), formate dehydrogenase from Candida boidinii (CbFDH) and 1-nicotinamidethy-1’-methyl-4,4’- bipyridinium salt (NEMBP) in the presence of triethanolamine (TEOA) as an electron donor was investigated. NEMBP was prepared as the 4,4’-BP with the nicotinamide-group to promote the improvement of affinity with CbFDH. The properties of NEMBP were characterized by photochemical and electrochemical methods. In order to evaluate the affinity between cation radical of NEMBP (NEMBP ), as a co-enzyme and CbFDH, the energy level based on simple docking simulation and density functional theory were estimated. It was speculated that NEMBP could bind near the substrate binding pocket of CbFDH as well as NAD by docking simulation. In the visible-light driven NEMBP reduction with the sensitization of ZnTPPS in the presence of TEOA, the yield for reduction of NEMBP to NEMBP was estimated to be 80%. In the CO reduction to formate with the system consisting of TEOA, ZnTPPS, NEMBP and CbFDH, the turnover numbers of NEMBP and CbFDH were estimated to be 0.14 and 1.53 h , respectively. 2 2 +. +. + +. −1

<p>ギ酸は毒性が低く取り扱いが容易なため，水素キャリアとして注目されている。 本論文では，ポリビニルピロリドンによって分散された白金微粒子（Pt-PVP）を触媒としたギ酸分解に基づく選択的水素生成機構について，同位体標識したギ酸からの水素生成に対する速度論的同位体効果，水素生成に対する活性化エネルギーのpH依存性，およびギ酸の脱水に基づく一酸化炭素生成から議論した。同位体標識したギ酸を使用した水素生成に対する速度論的同位体効果の結果から，ギ酸が水素と二酸化炭素とに分解される過程の律速段階は，Pt-PVPに吸着したヒドリド種と溶液中のプロトンからの水素生成であることが示唆された。次に，Pt-PVPを触媒とするギ酸からの水素生成に対する活性化エネルギーのpH依存性を調べた結果，pH 2.5と3.5では差は見られないものの，pH 1.8では活性化エネルギーが低減されることが分かった。一方で，pH 1.8では水素生成量は他のpH領域と比較して著しく低下したことから，Pt-PVPを触媒とするギ酸分解に基づく水素生成は，ギ酸イオン濃度に強く依存することが示唆された。これは，pH 2.5と3.5ではPt-PVPを触媒とする水素生成の律速段階が，白金微粒子上の水素と溶液中のプロトンからの水素生成であるのに対して，pH 1.8ではその段階が白金微粒子へのギ酸イオンの吸着あるいは微粒子上でのギ酸塩のC–H結合開裂であることを示している。さらに，Pt-PVPはギ酸を選択的に水素と二酸化炭素に分解する触媒として作用し，ギ酸の脱水による一酸化炭素生成は進行しないことが分かった。</p>

© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. Anti-Stokes fluorescence from chlorophyll a molecules dispersed in diethyl ether has been observed. From the excitation power dependence of the fluorescence spectrum, it is concluded that the anti-Stokes fluorescence appears via the linear optical process. To consider the relationship between the observed spectral shape and vibrational modes, the model spectral density has been determined based on the Raman spectrum and real-time coherent vibrational oscillation signals. The absorption spectrum observed in the experiment was well reproduced by the calculation, indicating the validity of the model spectral density. The involvement of the low-frequency vibrational modes in the anti-Stokes fluorescence process is discussed.

© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. Nonlinear optical responses of β-carotene were investigated upon excitation using chirped pulses. We especially focus on spectrally resolved transient grating (TG) signals to discuss the influence of the spectral chirp over a wide spectral range. A significant change in the TG signal was observed when negatively chirped pulses were used. The experimental results were qualitatively reproduced by employing the Brownian oscillator model. The relationship between the wave packet motion in the excited state and spectral chirp is discussed. It is concluded that the third order nonlinear optical response reflects the competition between the spectral chirp and the energy separation of the potential curves.

© 2019 American Chemical Society. Malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating) commonly named malic enzyme (ME) from chicken liver (EC 1.1.1.40) catalyzes a reaction introducing CO2 as a carboxy-group to pyruvate to form malate via oxaloacetate in the presence of the coenzyme NADPH, and is an attractive biocatalyst for building C-C bonds using CO2 as a chemical carbon feedstock. We previously discovered that multielectron reduced diphenylviologen derivatives (PVs) can act as an artificial coenzyme for ME, replacing the expensive NADPH (natural coenzyme), in the formation of malate. In this Letter, the kinetic parameters of oxaloacetate production based on building C-C bonds of a coupling pyruvate and CO2 with water-soluble PVs, double-electron reduced 1,1′-bis(p-carboxyphenyl)-4,4′-bipyridinium dichloride (PCV0) and ME were determined with the analysis of enzymatic kinetics for the first time. PCV0 acts as a Lewis base and is involved in oxaloacetate production via C-H bond activation and carboxylation of pyruvate by CO2.

© 2018 The Royal Society of Chemistry. Visible-light driven redox systems have been attracting significant research attention due to their ability to produce hydrogen and reduce and utilize CO2for the production of solar fuels and chemicals. Generally, visible-light driven redox systems consist of an electron donor, a photocatalytic dye, an electron mediator and a catalyst. One of the important components in visible-light driven redox systems is an effective catalyst for hydrogen production and reduction and utilization of CO2. The catalysts used in visible-light driven redox systems are classified into metal nanoparticles, molecular catalysts and biocatalysts. Among them, biocatalysts are promising due to their excellent reaction and substrate selectivity, especially for the reduction and utilization of CO2, which is remarkably higher than that of other catalysts. Among the biocatalysts for CO2reduction and utilization, NAD(P)+-dependent dehydrogenases, which are commercially available, are widely used in visible-light driven redox systems. Formate dehydrogenase (FDH) from Candida boidinii is a typical NAD(P)+-dependent dehydrogenase for the visible-light driven redox reduction of CO2to formate. Furthermore, the addition of commercially available aldehyde (aldDH), formaldehyde (FldDH) and alcohol (ADH) dehydrogenase to this system results in the reduction of CO2to methanol via formate and formaldehyde as intermediates in visible-light driven redox systems. Furthermore, NAD(P)+-dependent dehydrogenases for decarboxylation are also commercially available and widely used for the visible-light driven formation of carbon-carbon bonds from CO2and organic molecules. Malic enzyme (ME) from chicken liver is a typical NAD(P)+-dependent dehydrogenase with decarboxylating ability for the visible-light driven production of malate, which is based on the formation of carbon-carbon bonds from CO2and pyruvate. In this review, visible-light driven CO2reduction and utilization systems involving the photoreduction of NAD(P)+and biocatalysts are introduced. Furthermore, visible-light driven CO2reduction and utilization systems involving the photoreduction of bipyridinium salt (viologen)-based electron mediators and biocatalysts also are introduced. In particular, the simplification of visible-light driven CO2reduction and utilization systems by utilizing viologen-based electron mediators and the improvement in their efficiency without changing the structure of the biocatalyst are also discussed.

<p>Formate dehydrogenase (FDH) is a useful biocatalyst for CO₂ reduction to formic acid in a photoredox system consisting of a photosensitizer and an electron carrier. The electron carrier, single-electron reduced 2,2′-bipyridinium salts (2,2′-BP²⁺s) act as the co-enzyme for FDH in the reaction of CO₂ to formic acid. An advantage of 2,2′-BP²⁺s is the easy change of structural geometry and the various single-electron reduction potentials. For further improvement of CO₂ reduction catalytic activity of FDH, various 2,2′-BP²⁺s were synthesized as effective artificial co-enzymes for FDH. The effect of the structural geometry and the single-electron reduction potential in the single-electron reduced form of 2,2′-BP²⁺s on the CO₂ reduction catalytic activity of FDH was studied by enzymatic kinetic analysis in detail for the first time. Especially, the catalytic efficiency, <i>k_cat</i>/<i>K</i>_m value of the single-electron reduced 1,1′-ethylene-2,2′-bipyridinium salt was c.a. 126 times larger than that of native co-enzyme, NADH. These results showed that catalytic activity of FDH can be manipulated with complete control by using 2,2′-BP²⁺ without changing the structure of FDH and has opened a new avenue for the approach of NAD⁺/NADH redox free system with FDH using an inexpensive small electron carrier molecule.</p>

© 2018 The Royal Society of Chemistry and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique. Aerobic photosynthesis in green plants, cyanobacteria, and micro-algae has two important sites in the integral-membrane photoactive complexes, photosystems I (PSI) and II (PSII). These systems are assembled into thylakoid membranes. Thylakoid membranes with oxygen-evolution activity owing to PSII can be used in visible-light driven water photolytic materials. In this work, a new visible-light driven electrochemical biofuel-based cell consisting of the thylakoid membrane of microalgae Spirulina platensis immobilized on a nanocrystalline TiO2layer electrode as a photoanode, a formate dehydrogenase (FDH)/viologen co-immobilized electrode as a cathode, and a CO2-saturated buffer solution as the redox electrolyte, was developed. The actual short-circuit photocurrent of this cell was estimated to be ca. 50 μA cm-2. Formic acid and oxygen were produced in this biofuel cell, while generating electricity from irradiated visible light. The ratio of formic acid to oxygen produced in the biofuel cell after continuous irradiation was estimated to be ∼2. Thus, formic acid and oxygen were produced stoichiometrically in this visible-light driven electrochemical biofuel cell. Thus, a new biofuel cell system with the functions of a solar cell and the ability of CO2conversion was developed.

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Formate dehydrogenase (FDH) is an attractive biocatalyst for converting CO2to formic acid in ambient conditions. FDH is applied to the catalyst for the visible-light induced CO2– formic acid conversion system consisting of an electron donor, a photosensitizaer and an electron carrier. For improvement of the formic acid production efficiency with this system, the enhancement of electron relay processes among a photosensitizer, an electron carrier and FDH has been needed. We aimed to solve this problem by developing novel electron carrier based on the viologen derivative instead of methylviologen (MV), widely used as an electron carreir. In this study, viologen derivatives with carbamoyl group, 1,1′-dicarbamoylmethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium diiodide (CV) and 1-carbamoylmethyl-1′-methyl-4,4′-bipyridinium diiodide (CMV) were synthesized and applied to the electron carrier for photoinduced CO2-formic acid conversion system consisting of triethanolamine, water-soluble zinc porphyrin and FDH. By using CV and CMV, the effective formic acid production in the system of water-soluble zinc porphyrin and FDH was improved compared with that of MV.

Singlet and triplet excited states dynamics of the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll a in various solvents have been investigated by sub-ns pump-probe spectroscopic measurements with a sub-ns time resolution and a temporal window up to 400 μs. The singlet and triplet lifetimes of chlorophyll a were determined respectively to be 5.2–7.0 ns and 1.2–12 μs, depending on solvents. On a basis of a global analysis of time-resolved spectroscopic data, we estimated an yield of the intersystem crossing from the singlet to triplet excited states chlorophyll a to be about 30% depending not on surrounding environments. The value is much lower than the previously reported values.

For example, NADP-malic enzyme (ME, EC1.1.1.40) catalyzes the reaction of introducing CO2as a carboxy group to pyruvate (C3 compound) to form malate (C4 compound) via oxaloacetate in the presence of natural co-enzyme NADPH. In a recent study, visible light-induced oxaloacetate production from pyruvate and CO2with the system consisting an electron donor, a photosensitizer, diphenylviologen (PV2+) derivative as an electron mediator and ME was reported. However, the visible light-induced reduction properties of PV2+with water-soluble Zn porphyrin have not been clarified. In this study, chemical and photo-redox properties of PV2+were studied. In addition, to produce malate, CO2saturated reaction solution containing triethanolamine, tetraphenylporphine tetrasulfonate (H2TPPS), pyruvate, PV2+and ME in the presence of Mg2+, co-factor for ME was irradiated with visible-light, the oxaloacetate and malate were produced.

<p>Formate dehydrogenase (FDH) is an attractive biocatalyst for CO₂ reduction. The reduced form of methylviologen acts as an artificial coenzyme for FDH. For further improvement in the CO₂ reduction catalytic activity of FDH, a viologen derivative with two amino groups, 1,1′-diaminoethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium salt (DA²⁺), was synthesized as the effective artificial coenzyme for FDH. By enzyme kinetic analysis, the catalytic efficiency, i.e., <i>k</i>_cat/<i>K</i>_m value of the reduced form of DA²⁺ was estimated to be more than 560 times larger than that of NADH, the natural coenzyme for FDH.</p>

By using the reduced form of diquat, the effective CO2 reduction to formic acid with FDH is accomplished.

The kinetic properties of the conversion of CO₂ to formic acid with formate dehydrogenase (FDH) using dithionite-reduced methylviologen as an artificial co-enzyme were studied. The catalytic production of CO₂ from formic acid by FDH was suppressed using methylviologen as an artificial co-enzyme. In contrast, compared to the natural co-enzyme NADH, dithionite-reduced methylviologen was a more effective co-enzyme in the conversion of CO₂ to formic acid with FDH.

An optical oxygen sensor was developed as a pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) to measure time-varying surface pressure in aerodynamic testing. A silica nanoparticle dispersion (slurry) was used as the binder for the sensor, with a pressure-sensitive dye dissolved in the slurry. The dye slurry was deposited onto arbitrary surfaces via spray coating. Thin porous silica films were successfully formed without any organic additives. The pressure and temperature sensitivity of common pressure-sensitive dyes platinum tetra(pentafluorophenyl) porphyrin (PtTFPP)and tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline)ruthenium(II) dichloride ([Ru(dpp)3]Cl2) with a silica/toluene slurry were tested, in addition to the temporal response. The pressure sensitivity was -0.94/kPa for PtTFPP and -0.64/kPa for [Ru(dpp)3]2+, which was comparable to the sensitivity of common PSPs. The sensor had good photostability, although it exhibited substantial temperature sensitivity (ca. 1.5/°C). The response time was less than 0.1 ms for a step rise in pressure obtained using a shock tube. © 2012 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Solar fuels, such as hydrogen gas produced from water and methanol produced from carbon dioxide reduction by artificial photosynthesis, have received considerable attention. In natural leaves the photosynthetic proteins are well-organized in the thylakoid membrane. To develop an artificial leaf device for solar low-carbon fuel production from CO 2, a chlorophyll derivative chlorin-e 6 (Chl-e 6; photosensitizer), 1-carboxylundecanoyl-1′-methyl-4,4′-bipyrizinium bromide, iodide (CH 3V(CH 2) 9COOH; the electron carrier) and formate dehydrogenase (FDH) (the catalyst) immobilised onto a silica-gel-based thin layer chromatography plate (the Chl-V-FDH device) was investigated. From luminescence spectroscopy measurements, the photoexcited triplet state of Chl-e 6 was quenched by the CH 3V(CH 2) 9COOH moiety on the device, indicating the photoinduced electron transfer from the photoexcited triplet state of Chl-e 6 to the CH 3V(CH 2) 9COOH moiety. When the CO 2-saturated sample solution containing NADPH (the electron donor) was flowed onto the Chl-V-FDH device under visible light irradiation, the formic acid concentration increased with increasing irradiation time. © 2012 The Royal Society of Chemistry.

A light-harvesting (LH) antenna complex II, LHCII, isolated from spinach was immobilized onto an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode with dot patterning of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS) by utilizing electrostatic interactions between the cationic surface of the electrode and the anionic surface of stromal side of the LHCII polypeptide. Interestingly, the illumination of LHCII assembled onto the ITO electrode produced a photocurrent response that depends on the wavelength of the excitation light. Further, LHCII was immobilized onto a TiO2nanostructured film to extend for the development of a dye-sensitized biosolar cell system. The photocurrent measured in the iodide/tri-iodide redox system of an ionic liquid based electrolyte on the TiO2system showed remarkable enhancement of the conversion efficiency, as compared to that on the ITO electrode. © 2012 American Chemical Society.

Models of photosynthesis mimetic systems, the so-called artificial photosynthesis systems, have been investigated since the 1970s for the purpose of tapping solar energy. With the deterioration of the global environment in the 21st century, attributed to global warming and greenhouse gas emissions, it has become imperative to identify new fuel sources such as solar energy to replace fossil fuels. Among the new fuel production systems, those involving the use of solar energy have attracted attention; examples are systems that produce hydrogen through water photolysis and those that produce methanol by CO 2 reduction with the aid of an artificial photosynthesis system. As hydrogen and methanol are low-carbon fuels (the emission of CO 2 from the combustion of these fuels is low), they are considered to be alternatives to fossil resources. In this review, solar fuel production systems consisting of an artificial photosynthesis system, a catalyst, and an enzyme are discussed. These systems are expected to help in reducing CO 2 and to promote the use of low-carbon fuels in the future. © 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Cellulase obtained from Aspergillus niger was used to hydrolyze a mixture of saccharides containing sucrose, maltose, and cellobiose; the reduced form of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), which is NADH, was produced during hydrolysis of the mixture of saccharides in the presence of NAD+and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH). We have developed a visible-light-induced enzymatic biohydrogen production system involving the combination of cellulase-mediated hydrolysis of the mixture of saccharides and hydrogen production by platinum nanoparticles using photosensitization of Mg chlorophyll-a (Mg Chl-a). Continuous production of hydrogen gas was observed when the reaction mixture containing saccharides, cellulase, GDH, NAD+, Mg Chl-a, methylviologen (MV2+, an electron donor), and platinum nanoparticles was irradiated by visible light. After 120 min of irradiation, the amount of hydrogen produced from the mixture of saccharides was approximately 2.8 μmol. © 2010 Professor T. Nejat Veziroglu. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

To develop the visible light-induced hydrogen and oxygen production based on the water photolysis, 2,6-dichloroindophenol (DCIP) reduction based on the photoinduced water oxidation with oxygen evolved centre (OEC) of PSII in photosynthesis organ, grana from spinach was studied. It noted that manganese-calcium (4Mn-Ca) cluster consisted of four manganese and one calcium ions in OEC, and the role and effect of manganese (III) and calcium ions on the DCIP reduction were investigated. By addition of manganese (III) acetate up to 80 μmol dm-3, the concentration of the reduced DCIP with irradiation was increased compared with the system in the absence of manganese (III) acetate. The activity of DCIP reduction in the presence of 80 μmol dm-3manganese (III) acetate was 4.7 times higher than that in the absence of manganese (III) acetate. This result shows that the DCIP photoreduction with grana was promoted by addition of manganese (III) ion. In contrast, the activity of DCIP reduction in the presence of 120 μmol dm-3manganese (III) acetate was 1.5 times higher than that in the absence of manganese (III) acetate, indicating that photoreduction of DCIP activity of grana was inhibited under higher concentration of manganese (III) ion or acetate anion. By addition of 80 μmol dm-3calcium chloride, on the other hand, 5.9 μmol dm-3of reduced DCIP was produced and the reduction ratio of the reduced DCIP to DCIP was 8.6% after 240 min irradiation. The activity of DCIP reduction in the presence of 80 μmol dm-3calcium chloride was almost the same in the absence of calcium chloride. This result shows the no effect on the DCIP photoreduction based on the water oxidation with grana by addition of calcium ion. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

To develop a photoinduced hydrogen production system based on an artificial photosynthesis model, the anionic water-soluble carotenoid dye crocetin, which has two carboxylate groups (a π electron conjugated polyene material with a carbon number of 20), electrostatically immobilized onto the surface of cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) micelles that included Mg chlorophyll-a and b (MgChl-a and b) (Cro/MgChl), was prepared, and its photochemical properties were studied using UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The fluorescence of MgChl-a and b was induced, with the excitation wavelength attributed to the absorption band of crocetin, indicating that a photoinduced energy transfer from the photoexcited state of crocetin to MgChl-a and b occurs via the CTAB micelle interface. The photostability of MgChl-a and b in Cro/MgChl was investigated under continuous visible irradiation. After 60 min of irradiation, the absorbance at 660 nm due to MgChl-a and b in Cro/MgChl and MgChl-a/b, which did not contain crocetin, decreased by 3.0% and 17%, respectively. Little photoinduced decomposition of the crocetin moiety of Cro/MgChl was observed. These results indicate that the photoinduced decomposition rate of MgChla/ b in Cro/MgChl against irradiation was suppressed by the crocetin molecule on the surface of the micelles. An effective hydrogen production system in the presence of NADH as an electron donor, methylviologen (MV2+) as an electron carrier, and platinum colloid as a hydrogen producing catalyst under visible light irradiation was developed using Cro/MgChl as a photosensitizer (3.6 μmol in 3 h), which was found to be better than using MgChl-a/b without crocetin (2.1 μmol in 3 h). © 2009 American Chemical Society.

We studied the photochemical and enzymatic synthesis of methanol from HCO3-using formate dehydrogenase (FDH) isolated from Candida boidinii, aldehyde dehydrogenase (AldDH) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) isolated from yeast, and the photoreduction of methyl viologen (MV2+) by the visible-light sensitization using zinc tetraphenylporphyrin tetrasulfonate (ZnTPPS) in the presence of triethanolamine (TEOA). When a sample solution containing ZnTPPS, MV2+, FDH, AldDH, ADH, TEOA, and NaHCO3in potassium phosphate buffer solution (pH 8) was irradiated, the amount of methanol produced increased with the irradiation time. After irradiation for 3 h, 4.5 μmol dm-3of methanol was produced from 100 μmol dm-3NaHCO3. The conversion ratio of HCO3-to methanol was approximately 4.5%. This result indicates that a system for the photochemical synthesis of methanol from HCO3-can be developed by using three dehydrogenases (FDH, AldDH, and ADH) and for the photoreduction of MV2+through the photosensitization of ZnTPPS in aqueous media. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.

Oxygen-monitoring techniques are applied to various fields, such as chemicals, deep sea environment, fluid dynamics, clinical analysis and environmental monitoring. Recently, a variety of devices and sensors based on phosphorescence or photoexcited state quenching of porphyrin molecules have been developed to measure oxygen concentration on the solid surface. Many optical oxygen sensors are composed of porphyrins (platinum(II), palladium(II), zinc(II), metal-free, etc.) dispersed in oxygen-permeable polymer film or directly immobilized onto solid surface via chemical or physical adsorption. Oxygen-sensing systems are classified into four types: (1) phosphorescence intensity change, (2) phosphorescence lifetime change, (3) change of lifetime of photoexcited triplet state, and (4) intensity change of absorption of photoexcited triplet state. In this review, the properties of various optical oxygen-sensing devices using porphyrins and sensing system are introduced. © 2009 World Scientific Publishing Company.

Photochemical and enzymatic synthesis of formic acid was investigated from HCO3− with formate dehydrogenase (FDH) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and reduced methylviologen (MV2+) produced by the visible light photosensitization of zinc tetrakis(4-methylpyridyl) porphyrin (ZnTMPyP) in the presence of triethanolamine (TEOA) as an electron donating reagent. Irradiation of a solution containing TEOA, ZnTMPyP, MV2+, NaHCO3 and FDH in potassium phosphate buffer, with visible light resulted in formic acid production and HCO3− consumption. The optimum FDH activity was 20 units and the amount of formic acid and the yield of HCO3− to formic acid after 4 h irradiation were estimated to be 50 μmol • dm−3 and 5.0%, respectively. © 2009, The Japan Petroleum Institute.

Photovoltaic conversion using photosynthesis organ Grana from Spinach adsorbed nanocrystalline TiO2layer onto ITO glass (OTE) electrode (Grana/TiO2electrode) is developed. The shape of absorption spectrum of the Grana/TiO2electrode is almost the same that of Grana solution. Absorption maxima of Grana/TiO2electrode are observed at 450, 480 and 680 nm attributed to carotenoid and chlorophyll molecules. This result suggests that Grana are adsorbed onto nanocrystalline TiO2layer onto OTE. The photocurrent responses of Grana/TiO2elec-trodes are measured using acetonitrile with 0.1 mol dm-3tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophospate as a redox electrolyte in the presence and absence of water with 100 mWcm-2irradiation. Photocurrent of Grana/TiO2electrode increases using the redox electrolyte containing water. Moreover, the photocurrent responses of Grana/TiO2electrodes with monochromatic light (680 nm attributed to absorption band of photosystem II with oxygen evolved complex) irradiation are measured using acetonitrile with 0.1 mol dm-3tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophospate as a redox electrolyte in the presence and absence of water. Photocurrent of Grana/TiO2electrode using the redox electrolyte containing water only is observed, indicating that the evolved oxygen from water with photosystem II in Grana onto nanocrystalline TiO2layer electrode by 680 nm irradiation is reduced to water with catalytic activity of platinum electrode.

Mg chlorophyll-a (MgChl-a) with imidazole-4-acetic acid (Im) as the axial ligand, MgChl-a(Im) conjugated to a nanocrystalline TiO2film onto optical transparent substrate electrode (OTE) is prepared and the photovoltaic properties of the nanocrystalline TiO2film through an axial Im ligand of MgChl-a are studied. MgChl-a conjugated to nanocrystalline TiO2film electrode is prepared by using two different methods. One is the MgChl-a conjugated to nanocrystalline TiO2film electrode using carboxyl group of Im of MgChl-a(Im) (MgChl-a(Im)/TiO2). The other is the MgChl-a conjugated to nanocrystalline TiO2film electrode using the coordination of Im immobilized onto TiO2to the axial site of MgChl-a (MgChl-a/Im-TiO2). In MgChl-a(IM)/TiO2and MgChl-a/Im-TiO2, the fluorescence of MgChl-a is effectively quenched by the electron injection from the excited singlet state of MgChl-a into the conduction band of TiO2particles via the axial ligand of Im. The photocurrent action spectra of MgChl-a(Im)TiO2, MgChl-a/Im-TiO2and MgChl-a/TiO2electrodes are similar to that of the UV-vis absorption spectra in the methanol solution and incident photon to current efficiency (IPCE) values reach a maximum around the wavelength of absorption maximum (660-680 nm). IPCE value of MgChl-a/TiO2electrode (0.65% at 680 nm) is lowest among those of MgChl-a(Im)TiO2(1.65% at 680 nm) and MgChl-a/Im-TiO2(1.74% at 660 nm) electrodes. These results indicate that MgChl-a anchored on nanocrystalline TiO2film through the axial Im ligand is the efficient visible sensitization for photovoltaic injection cell based on the nanocrystalline TiO2film electrode.

We report on the development of a new optical glucose sensor using o-dianisidine hydrochloride (DASD), glucose oxidase (GOD), and peroxidase (POD) immobilized onto a gold nanoparticle-modified Al2O3-based thin layer chromatography (TLC) sheet for D-glucose detection based on the colorimetric change in DASD. Images of the DASD/GOD/POD-modified site of the TLC plate demonstrated color changes at various D-glucose concentrations ranging between 0 and 10-1 M. The intensity increased with increasing D-glucose concentration, indicating that the D-glucose concentration can be visually estimated using the DASD/GOD/POD-modified site of the TLC plate. A plot of the logarithm values of D-glucose concentrations against the relative intensity showed good linearity, indicating that the D-glucose concentration could be determined based on the intensity of the images of the DASD/GOD/POD-modified site of the TLC plate.

Here, we developed a photoinduced biohydrogen production system coupling saccharide hydrolysis with hydrogen production. A mixture of three different saccharides (sucrose, maltose, and cellobiose) was hydrolyzed by three enzymes (invertase, glucoamylase, and cellulase) and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH). Hydrogen production was performed with colloidal platinum as a catalyst, using visible light-induced photosensitization of Mg chlorophyll a (Mg Chl a). Irradiation of the sample solution containing the saccharides, enzymes, GDH, NAD+, Mg Chl a, methyl viologen (MV2+), and colloidal platinum resulted in continuous hydrogen production. Approximately 2.9 μmol hydrogen was produced after 2 h of irradiation, and the total yield was approximately 8.8%. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) assembled in hydrophobic domain by fatty acid with long alkyl hydrocarbon chain such as myristic acid (Myr), stearic acid (Ste) and cholic acid (Cho) modified onto nanocrystalline TiO2 electrode is prepared and the photovoltaic properties of the nanocrystalline TiO2 film by Chl-a are studied. Incident photon to current efficiency (IPCE) value at 660 nm in photocurrent action spectrum of Chl-a/Ste-TiO2, Chl-a/Myr-TiO2 and Chl-a/Cho-TiO2 electrodes are 5.0%, 4.1% and 4.1%, respectively. Thus, the IPCE is maximum using Chl-a/Ste-TiO2 electrode. From the results of photocurrent responses with light intensity of 100 mW cm-2 irradiation or monochromatic light with 660 nm, generated photocurrent increases using Chl-a/Ste-TiO2 electrode compared with the other Chl-a assembled TiO2 electrodes. These results show that the hydrophobic domain formed by stearic acid with long alkyl hydrocarbon chain is suitable for fixation of Chl-a onto TiO2 film electrodes and photovoltaic performance is improved using Chl-a onto Ste-TiO2 film electrode. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

Porphyrin derivatives, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4- carboxylundecane-1-oxy)porphyrin (1H), 5-[4-(11-carboxylundecane-1- oxy)-10,15,20-triphenyl]porphyrin (2H), 5-(4-carboxylphenyl)-10,15, 20-triphenylporphyrin (3H), and their platinum complexes, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-carboxylundecane-1-oxy)porphyrinatoplatinum(ii) (1 Pt), 5-[4-(11-carboxylundecane-1-oxy)-10,15,20-triphenyl] porphyrinatoplatinum(ii) (2Pt), 5-(4-carboxylphenyl)-10,15,20- triphenylporphyrinatoplatinum(ii) (3Pt), were synthesized and anchored by an equilibrium adsorption method on aluminium oxide plates, which were prepared by an anodic oxidation. The excitation spectra of the porphyrin-anchored layers showed a broadened and blue-shifted Soret band compared with the corresponding porphyrins in DMSO. The luminescence intensity decreased with increasing oxygen concentrations. The oxygen-sensing ability estimated from I0/I100 (I0 and I100 denote the luminescence intensity in 0 and 100% oxygen) was (1H) 9.08, (2H) 6.78, (3H) 8.71, (1Pt) 81.9, (2 Pt) 35.5, and (3Pt) 39.1, which are greater than those of corresponding porphyrin derivatives in DMSO under the measured conditions, and indicates the remarkable enhancement effect of platinum(ii). Non-linear Stern-Volmer plots were well fitted by the two component system to give the oxygen-sensitive constant (KSV1/%-1), the oxygen-insensitive constant (KSV2/%-1), and the former contribution (f1): (1H) 0.232, 3.32 × 10 -2, and 0.642; (2H) 0.141, 2.05 × 10-2, and 0.687; (3H) 0.143, 1.05 × 10-2, and 0.882; (1Pt) 17.3, 7.04 × 10-3, and 0.980; (2Pt) 10.2, 1.43 × 10-2, and 0.935; (3Pt) 16.3, 8.35 × 10-3, and 0.954. The response time for the change of the atmospheric gas from argon to oxygen was (1H) 9.4 s, (2H) 12.5 s, (3H) 9.6 s, (1Pt) 5.0 s, (2Pt) 8.9 s, and (3Pt) 4.6 s, indicating the shortening effect of platinum. The reverse effect of platinum was observed in the change from oxygen to argon: (1H) 15.5 s, (2H) 17.0 s, (3H) 20.8 s, (1 Pt) 667.4 s, (2Pt) 590.1 s, and (3Pt) 580.4 s, indicating the specific interaction of oxygen to the platinum(ii) center. © The Royal Society of Chemistry and Owner Societies.

Photovoltaic conversion using zinc chlorin-e6(ZnChl-e6), which is zinc chlorophyll-a derivative, and fatty acid (myristic acid or cholic acid) co-adsorbed nanocrystalline TiO2layer onto ITO glass (OTE) electrode is developed. The maximum peaks of photocurrent action spectrum of the ZnChl-e6adsorbed TiO2layer onto OTE (ZnChl-e6/TiO2) are 400, 660 and 800 nm, respectively. Especially the IPCE value at 800 nm (7.5%) is larger than that of 660 nm (6.9%). This result indicates that ZnChl-e6molecules is aggregated or formed dimer on a nanocrystalline TiO2layer onto OTE and the absorption band is shifted to near IR region. The photocurrent action spectrum of ZnChl-e6and cholic acid adsorbed TiO2layer onto OTE (ZnChl-e6-Cho/TiO2) is similar to that of the UV-vis absorption spectrum in methanol solution, and IPCE values at 400 and 660 nm (8.1%) increase and the IPCE value at 800 nm (4.1%) decreases, indicating that the aggregation of ZnChl-e6molecules on the TiO2is suppressed by cholic acid. By using ZnChl-e6-Cho/TiO2, the short-circuit photocurrent density and open-circuit photovoltage also increase compared with that of ZnChl-e6adsorbed nanocrystalline TiO2electrode. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

We evaluated the photochemical and enzymatic synthesis of methanol from formaldehyde with alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and NAD+photoreduction by the visible-light sensitization of zinc tetraphenylporphyrin tetrasulfonate (ZnTPPS) in the presence of methylviologen (MV2+), diaphorase, and triethanolamine (TEOA). When the sample solution containing ZnTPPS, MV2+, NAD+, diaphorase, and TEOA in potassium phosphate buffer solution was irradiated, the NADH produced increased with the irradiation time. After irradiation for 180 min, the conversion yield of NAD+to NADH was about 60% under 0.1 mM NAD+condition. The methanol production also depended on the conversion yield of NAD+to NADH. After irradiation for 180 min, 0.38 μM of methanol was produced from formaldehyde (16 μM). The conversion ratio of formaldehyde to methanol was about 2.3%. This result indicates that a system for the photochemical synthesis of methanol from formaldehyde was developed with ADH and the NADH produced by the photosensitization of ZnTPPS in water media. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Zn chlorophyll-a derivative, Zn chlorin-e6(ZnChl-e6) and carotenoid derivative, crocetin (Cro) adsorbed onto a nanocrystalline TiO2film (ZnChl-e6-Cro/TiO2) electrode was prepared and the photovoltaic properties of ZnChl-e6-Cro/TiO2electrode were studied. Incident photon to current efficiency (IPCE) value at 640 nm in photocurrent action spectrum of ZnChl-e6-Cro/TiO2electrode was ca. 2.50%. In contrast, IPCE value at 640 nm in ZnChl-e6/TiO2electrode was ca. 1.27%. Thus, the IPCE value increases by co-adsorbed crocetin and ZnChl-e6onto TiO2film electrode. From the results of photocurrent responses with light intensity of 100 mW cm-2irradiation, generated photocurrents in the ZnChl-e6-Cro/TiO2and ZnChl-e6/TiO2electrodes are 380 and 180 μA cm-2, respectively. Photocurrent increases using ZnChl-e6-Cro/TiO2electrode compared with that of ZnChl-e6/TiO2electrode. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The fluorescence behavior of pyrene-1-butylic acid (PBA) chemisorption layer onto nano-porous anodic oxidized aluminum with a myristic acid layer was investigated and its device was applied as a fluorescence oxygen sensing material. When the ratio of [myristic acid]/[PBA] onto anodic oxidized aluminum plate increased, the fluorescence intensity due to monomer emission increased and the intensity due to excimer emission decreased. These results show that the polarity of the microenvironment around PBA molecules increased by chemisorption of myristic acid and the excimer formation between PBA molecules was suppressed by the myristic acid layer onto nano-porous anodic oxidized aluminum plate. Both of fluorescence attributed to monomer and excimer were quenched by oxygen. The l0/l100 values, where l 0 and l100 represent the detected fluorescence intensities from a substrate exposed to 100% argon and 100% oxygen, respectively, in monomer emission increased with increasing the ratio of myristic acid to PBA. In contrast, the l0/l100 values in excimer emission decreased with increasing the ratio of myristic acid to PBA. The PBA onto anodic oxidation of aluminum plates with myristic acid layer obey the modified Stern-Volmer equation and the Stern-Volmer constant, Ksv at 376 nm attributed to monomer and 461 nm attributed to excimer increased and decreased with increasing the ratio of myristic acid to PBA.

Preparation of intercalation compounds using H3PO4electrolyte solution in mesophase-pitch-based carbon fibers successfully carried out by electrolysis in less than 10 mol/dm3of its electrolyte solution. Structural changes with preparation of intercalation compounds of carbon fibers were confirmed by a peak appeared around 2θ=8° observed after electrolysis, which corresponds to an interlayer spacing of about 0.9 nm through XRD pattern (anticathode: Cu Kα). This new peak was reasonably supposed to be due to the intercalation into interspacing of carbon layers. Suitable synthesis condition of the intercalation compounds was determined to be the concentration of electrolyte of 5 mol/dm3at the electrolysis. It was also confirmed by morphology changes through SEM, that is carbon fibers, which treated low electrolyte concentration synthesized the intercalation compounds easily, and then it revealed markedly morphology changes such as fibrils. It could become exfoliation as well as them treated by other acid treatment through rapid heat-treatment. The formation of graphite oxide was suggested when the kind of intercalate was analyzed with elementary and TPD analysis. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Starting materials such as Ti4O7were mixed with PVA powders in various mass ratios and then heated up to different temperatures from 900°C in Ar. Fine particles of photocatalytic Ti4O7were coated by carbon, and reduced phases, such as Ti5O9were formed through interaction between Ti4O7and coated carbon. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated from the decomposition of iminoctadine triacetae (IT) in aqueous solution under visible light or UV irradiation. Commercial grades of anatase (ST-01), and commercially available Ti4O7were employed as reference materials. Under UV irradiation, the carbon-coated Ti4O7and Ti5O9were confirmed to have photocatalytic activity, though a little lower than that of anatase (ST-01). However, carbon-coated Ti4O7and Ti5O9were photoactive even under visible light, whereas anatase ST-01 was inactive. On comparison of Ti4O7and Ti5O9with and without carbon coating under irradiation of visible light, it was confirmed that Ti4O7and Ti5O9with carbon-coating had a higher photocatalytic activity than uncoated oxides. © 2006 Science & Technology Network, Inc.

In order to investigate photoluminescence behaviour of an ordered molecular porphyrin monolayer and its quenching properties by oxygen gas, a porphyrin with long alkyl chains, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[4-(11-carboxylundecane-1-oxy)phenyl] porphyrin (4), was synthesized and adsorbed onto an indium-tin oxide (ITO) substrate by a chemical dipping method. Cyclic voltammetry was used to analyze the ITO electrode coated with 4. The peak current of the first oxidation was proportional to the sweep rate, and the surface coverage was estimated to be 2.3-2.5 × 10-10mol cm-2. The UV-vis spectrum of the monolayer showed a broadened Soret band, which shifted to longer wavelength. These features suggest that the porphyrin moieties of 4 are packed to form a J-type structure. The oxygen quenching ratio of the porphyrin 4 monolayer on the ITO electrode, I0/I100, was estimated to be 1.25, where I0and I100are, respectively, luminescence intensity values in 100% argon and 100% oxygen. On repeated step cycling between 100% argon and 100% oxygen atmospheres, the response times of luminescence quenching were 10 s (argon to oxygen) and 23 s (oxygen to argon). These findings suggest that a monolayer of sensing dye is applicable for oxygen sensing system without deterioration of size-accuracy of models. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A Zn chlorophyll-a derivative, Zn chlorin-e6(ZnChl-e6), adsorbed onto a nanocrystalline TiO2film (ZnChl-e6/TiO2) electrode was prepared, and the photovoltaic properties of the ZnChl-e6/TiO2electrode were studied. The absorption peaks of ZnChl-e6/TiO2observed at 420, 654, and 795 nm were attributed to the ZnChl-e6molecules aggregating onto TiO2film. The fluorescence attributed to the ZnChl-e6monomer and aggregate was observed at 710 and 820 nm, respectively, and the fluorescence in both cases was quenched by TiO2particles. The maximum of the incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) value in the photocurrent action spectrum was 800 nm, and the IPCE value was 7.0%. ZnChl-e6molecules formed aggregates on a nanocrystalline TiO2film electrode. From the photocurrent-photovoltage characteristics of the ZnChl-e6/TiO2electrode irradiated with 100 mW cm-2, the short-circuit photocurrent (ISC) was found to be 0.19 mA cm-2and the open-circuit photovoltage (VOC) was found to be 375 mV. The maximum power was estimated to be 28.7 μW cm-2, and the fill factor (FF) was estimated to be 40.1%.

Zn chlorophyll-a was prepareted from Mg chlorophyll-a from spirulina and the optical properties of the ground state and the photoexited state of Zn chlorophyll-a in aqueous surfactant micellar media were studied using UV-vis absorption, fluorescence emission spectra, electrochemical and fluorescence lifetime measurements. In comparison of the UV-vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectra of Zn chlorophyll-a and Mg chlorophyll-a, the blue-shift in the absorption bands and emission peak of Zn chlorophyll-a was observed. The energies of the first excited singlet state of Zn chlorophyll-a was 1.87eV. The first oxidation and reduction potentials of the photoexcited singlet state of Zn chlorophyll-a were -0.67 and 0.60V, respectively. Fluorescence lifetime of Zn chlorophyll-a was 9.0 ns in CTAB micellar solution. The fluorescence lifetime of Zn chlorophyll-a is shorter than that of Mg chlorophyll-a (9.8 ns). The photositability of Zn chlorophyll-a was superior to that of Mg chlorophyll-a in various pH conditions. © Springer 2005.

NADP+photoreduction was conducted by the visible light photosensitization of zinc chlorin-e6(Zn Chl-e6) in the presence of NADH as an electron-donating reagent. Irradiation of a solution containing NADH, Zn Chl-e6, methylviologen (MV2+), pyruvic acid, NaHCO3, NADP+, ferredoxine-NADP-reductase (FNR) and ME with visible light resulted in malic acid synthesis. The amount of malic acid was 0.65 mmol dm-3after 3 h irradiation.
