Abstract

Intermediates in the overall water splitting on particulate photocatalysts were investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N -oxide (DMPO) as a spin trap. In situ EPR spectra under ultraviolet light showed the exclusive formation of a hydroxyl radical adduct ( • DMPO-OH) over Ga 2 O 3 and NaTaO 3:La without a Rh–Cr oxide cocatalyst. In contrast, the Rh–Cr oxide cocatalyst-loaded photocatalysts active for water splitting formed a 5,5-dimethyl-2-oxo-pyrroline-1-oxyl radical ( • DMPOX). • DMPOX is suggested as an indicator of the surface peroxyl radical intermediate (M-OO • ) in the oxygen evolution reaction pathway.
