Polynuclear complexes as precursor templates for hierarchical microporous graphitic carbon: An unusual approach

Yes / A highly porous carbon was synthesized using a coordination complex as an unusual precursor. During controlled pyrolysis, a trinuclear copper complex, [CuII3Cl4(H2L)2]·CH3OH, undergoes phase changes with melt and expulsion of different gases to produce a unique morphology of copper-doped carbon which, upon acid treatment, produces highly porous graphitic carbon with a surface area of 857 m2 g–1 and a gravimetric hydrogen uptake of 1.1 wt % at 0.5 bar pressure at 77 K. / EPSRC (EP/R01650X/1 for VPT, and EP/E040071/1 for MT) and the University of Bristol
