ABSTRACT
A changeable ligand, which involves in activation of a catalyst or assists a reaction, draws an increasing attention, in contrast to a classical ligand as spectator. Proton-responsive catalysts, which are capable of undergoing changes of properties on gaining/losing one or more protons, provides interesting features as follows (i) catalyst activation by electronic effect, (ii) pH-tuning of water-solubility, and (iii) second-coordination-sphere interaction. On the basis of this catalyst design concept, we developed several highly efficient proton-responsive catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation as H2 storage, formic acid (FA) dehydrogenation as H2 production, and transfer hydrogenation. The transformable ligands of proton-responsive catalysts in promoting effective catalysis have aroused our interest. In this account, we summarize our efforts for the development and application of proton-responsive catalysts. Specifically, the important role of pH-dependent proton-responsive complexes will be discussed.
