مستخلص: In-operando spectroscopic observation of the intermediates formed during various electrocatalytic oxidation and reduction reactions is crucial to propose the mechanism of the corresponding reaction. Surface-enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy coupled to rotating disk electrochemistry (SERRS-RDE), developed about a decade ago, proved to be an excellent spectroscopic tool to investigate the mechanism of heterogeneous oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalyzed by synthetic iron porphyrin complexes under steady-state conditions in water. The information about the formation of the intermediates accumulated during the course of the reaction at the electrode interface helped to develop better ORR catalysts with second sphere residues in the porphyrin rings. To date, the application of this SERRS-RDE setup is limited to ORR only because the thiol self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-modified Ag electrode, used as the working electrode in these experiments, suffers from stability issues at more cathodic and anodic potential, where H2O oxidation, CO2 reduction, and H+ reduction reactions occur. The current investigation shows the development of a second-generation SERRS-RDE setup consisting of an Ag nanostructure (AgNS)-modified graphite electrode as the working electrode. These electrodes show higher stability (compared to the conventional thiol SAM-modified Ag electrode) upon exposure to very high cathodic and anodic potential with a good signal-to-noise ratio in the Raman spectra. The behavior of this modified electrode toward ORR is found to be the same as the SAM-modified Ag electrode, and the same ORR intermediates are observed during electrochemical ORR. At higher cathodic potential, the signatures of Fe(0) porphyrin, an important intermediate in H+ and CO2 reduction reactions, was observed at the electrode–water interface. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
